UNSINKABLE BOAT WILL
 CHANGE BODYBUILDING

l Picture a boat that is unsuitable, capable of a speed of seventy-fve miles an hour, able to travel over ice or water equally well, and in pinch capable of logging off a few miles on a sandy beach, and you will have conception of the boat which Edward Mantell, of HeQuiam, has designed. MT. Mantell received his patent from Washington yesterday and now has la working model of the new style craft at the Frye hotel on exhibition. F The chief features of the new boat is the way the power is applied to drive the hull through the water. The working model rests principally on two cylinders, each nearly as long as the hull and parallel to the hull. The cylinders are hollow and carry spi- ral flange running from stem to stern. The cylinders are turned by the en- zine and the curved flange drives the water like a worm gear and carries the boat forward.
 In the four-foot model which MT. Mantell uses for demonstrating, the cylinders are five inches in diameter, and support the greater part of the weight of the boat. The hull proper is of little beam, but the superstruc- ture is built out over the cylinders, giving a maximum carrying space. The cylinders turn away from the boat in order to throw out any drift wood or wreckage, thus making it impossible for piece of wood to jam between the hull and the cylinder and stop the boat.
 The non-sinkable feature is claim ed by Mir. Mantell on the grounds that the centrifugal force of the re- volving cylinders would force water out of the air chambers, even though they were punctured. He also de- clares that on reaching speed of fifty miles an hour the boat will plane and just bury the fianges under the surface, reducing friction.
 By having the cylinders on each side of the boat Mir. Mantell claims that a boat so constructed could be made to turn in it's own length by going ahead with one and reversing on the other.
 With his four-foot model MT. Man tell claims to have developed a speed of two miles an hour with two small motors of one-fortieth horse power each.--Seattle P.-I.

Beautiful Blue Lake.

Perhaps the most striking instance to be seen in the whole world of the wonderful apparent coloring of bodies of water is the marvelously beautiful Blue lake in Switzerland Encompass ed on all sides by lofty mountains. their lower ranges luxuriantly clothed with verdure down to the edge of the water and adorned with many fine for est trees, while their higher acclivities are garbed in n mantle of eternal snow. the little lake, nestling in it's deep hol low basin, is quite startling in it's sin gular and strange beauty. The water. although really pure and colorIess. ap pears to be of most intense sky blue, And it's transparency is so remarka ble that q small coin dropped into the water in the center of the lake can be seen until it reaches the bottom. ap- parently more than n hundred feet be meath.

Finger Nails Show Health.

Our finger nails are made of horny material that is in some ways like the material that makes our skin. But it is more like the material that makes our hair. It is after all different from eli ther of these and is more like horn than any other part of our bodies. The special cells at the base of the nails form the material for our nails and therefore the health of our finger nails depends on these cells. If you are not in good health or if you do not take good care of your skin your finger nails will show that they are not healthy If your blood is out of order the cells that make the finger nails will not do their work properly and then little white spots will appear on the nails So you see those little white spots are a sign of bad health.-Kansas City Star

bird is of very much darker hue than the mainland bird in the sum- mer, but at this season is changing his garb for the snow-white winter plumage he affects. The ptarmigan, by the way. is perhaps one of the best examples of protective coloring among birds, and as the season changes he clothes himself in colors that closely match those of the land scape in which he makes his home. !"

FATE OF A PIRATE CREW.
Strange Case If the Nancy Brig and
 Hunory Shark.


 In the museum at Kingston. Jamaica. there are some tattered ships papers, brown with age and salt water. and a small tin canister. These articles at test the truth of the strangest pirate story ever told.
 In 1709 the crew of the Nancy brig were apparently honest traders. but did some piracy now and then on the side One day they found it necessary to go into Kingston for supplies. Before do ing 50 they naturally removed all traces of their buccaneering trade. Among other things they threw over board this tin canister stuffed with pa. pers taken from ships they had sunk. with comments written on the margin by the pirate captain.
 Later in the day British frigate was becalmed near the spot. and the sailors spent their leisure catching sharks. Presently they hauled up a big fellow. cut him open and found the tin case with the papers inside. These were taken to the captain. who, as soon as breeze sprang up. sailed into Kingston harbor. found the Nancy brig there and had the crew tried, convict ed and hanged in chains at Port Royal

les Ruined Mosques, crumbIins Walis
 . and Rich eazaars.
 Squalor and ruin are the present characteristics of ancient Bagdad, the once beautiful city of "The Arabian Nights" Of its famous hundred mosques only about thirty are now in use. Several are so dilapidated that their crumbling roofs and walls threat en the lives of the devout who still worship in them.
 The one splendid wall. built of the handsome Arabian brick and extend ing around the city a distance of five miles. still stands, but it is broken in many places. The four original gates remain, and the oldest and finest one, bearing the date of 1920, has not been opened since the middle of the seven- teenth century.
 The famous river Tigris, a muddy stream flowing sluggishly during the greater part of the year, divides Bag dad into two parts, which are connect ed by rickety bridge of boats nearly 200 feet long. When the snow melts upon the Armenian mountains the IT. gris rises, sometimes floods part of the city and often carries away the bridge.
 The bazaars of Bagdads exhibit rich merchandise of many kinds, including Turkish and European products, both modern and antique, and are the most attractive part of the city.-New York Tribune.

C0c0anut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

II you want to keep your hair in
good condition, the less soap you use
the better. ~
~ = - ~ = - /
Most soaps and prepared sAampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
10 very harmful. just plain mulsIfied
cocoanut oil (which is pure and entire
ly greaseless), Is much better than
soap or anything else you can use for
shampooing, as this can't possibly in
jure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub 1t in. One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance of rich,
creamy lather, and cleanses the hair
and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rinses out easily and removes every
particle Of dust, dirt, dandruff and ex-
cessive oil. The hair dries quickly aud
evenly, and 1t leaves it fine and silky,
bright, fluffy and easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. It is>very
cheap, and few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for months.

At that time there was no united
German, Prussia was the ruling
kingdom and Frederick the Great was
at the zenith of his great fame.
When the great wal of the revolu-
ton came and an army was summoned
the volunteers had no more diea of
the need of having an army disci-
plined than the average congressman
now has. They were ready to fight,
certainly, but their idea of liberty was
that their officers were no better
than themselves and had no inherent
right to command them. Hence the
army that gathered under Washington
were little better than a mob, and
never accepted the truth, that 70 be-
come effective, armies must accept the
rules of a perfect Imperialism and
submit to orders.
In half despair Washington sent to
the great Frederick for help. A few
days after the message was received,
Baron Steuben, n of the kings fav-
orite officers, resigned from the Prus-
oioh I'LL anu WIFI a letteT from his
king sailed for America and reported
on his arrival to Washington.
Steuben began at once to put the
continental army in army form. BY
his skill, firmness and high character
he was able to make the ragged army
understand what was needed. In a
brief time 1t understood what was
needed to make it really effective and
from that moment there began to be
riffs of sunlight through the pail that
had so long Swallowed the land.
So much for early history. There
was not much change in national
thought until after the war OF 1872.
Napoleon had sold Louisiana to the
United States for a pittance but he did
it because he could not hold it against
Great Britain and his comfort was
that on that soil a power would ex-
pand that would finally rival Great
Britain in every way.
By the way. IL was a German, Albert
Aallatin, who was Jefferson's closest
adviser then and as secretary Of the
treasury helped so much to continue
