The battleship Nevada. latest and greatest of American warcraft afioat, has been sent to the New York navy yard for preparation for her trial trips. The gun arrangements on the Nevada marks an entirely new depar- ture in American battleship arma- ment. In all of the vessels that have been built heretofore the guns of the main batteries have ben placed two to a turret In the Nevada the ten guns are mounted in four turrets. In turrets and three are two guns, and in the other two turrets. the ex- treme forward one and the extreme aft one, there are three guns. The

three guns to a turret arrangement is of French origin. Another interest ing feature in the armament of the Nevada is the anti-aircraft battery of four angle three-inch guns. Two of these guns are mounted forward on the main deck, one on either side. The other two are to be mounted on top of turret 3, just aft of the second of the lattice work masts. forward of aft three gun turret. The next most interesting feature of the Nevada is the fact that she will be the first dreadnought which will burn oil exclusively. Her great oil tanks have capacity of nearly 6OO,0OO gallons of fuel.

F1agg's ComicaI Recipe.

e. In the November American maga- zine James Montgomery F1agg. she famous wit and artist, writes a clever parody of a lady's magazine. Tn his piece MT. Flagg initiates some of the features of every woman's magazine. Following is one of his recipes:
 Nut Cookies.
 Strain a cup and a half Of or dinary soup stock or grated licorice through an umbrella case, tie four eggs to the leg of the kitchen table and beat them numerically, remove the gums from eight gumdrops. and add level tablespoonful of selected racoon fur to taste. Stir rapidly with out compunction and roll out tho dough with perfect nonchalance. So down to the First National Bank and ask for some nuts If they are all opt of them. try all the other shops on Main street On the following Tuesday when you have found the nuts, place them in a row on the floor. Lead the cookies in single file in front of the nuts. and when you have cookie standing in front of every nut, and their minds are far away, suddenly push them backward with a fisiiirs pole. and they will all sit down on a nut! Then there is no alternatise- They have to be nut cookies"

Il was painting-up there" he said; {;
"and guess I got too absorbed in the
work. l stepped backward to look at
the canvas and forgot where the edg,
was I stepped too far"
The man rose to his feet, but he tot
tered and reeled against the wall of
ragged stone. The blow on his head
had left him faint and dizzy. He sat
down again.
I'm afraid" he ruefully admitted,
that I'm not quite ready for discharge
from your hospital"
You jest set where yer at" The
girl rose and pointed up the mountain
side. I'll light out across the hill and
fotch Samson an his mule"
who and where is Samson?" he
inquired. He realized that the bot
tom Of the valley would shortly thick
en- into darkness, and that the way
out, unguided, would become impos-
sible. 1T sounds like the name Of a
strong man."
'I means Samson South" she en-
lightened, as though further descrip-
ton Of one so celebrated would be re-
dundant. Hes over thar bout three
quarters"
"Three-quarters Of mile?"
She nodded. What else could three
quarters mean?
How long will it take you?" he
asked.
She deliberated. "Samson's hoein'
corn in the fur hill field. He'll hev
ter cotch his mule. Hit mout TEX a
half-hour."
"You can't do it in half-hour, can
you?"
"I'll jest take my foot in my hand,
an light out" She turned, and with
a nod was gone.
At last she came to a point where
a clearing rose on the mountainside
above her The forest blanket was
stripped off to make way for fenced
in and crafty tilted field Of young
corn. High up and beyond, close to
the bald shoulders Of sandstone which
threw themselves against the sky, was
the figure of man. AS the girl halted
at the foot Of the field, at last, painting
from her exertions, he was sitting on
the rail fence, looking absently down
on the outstretched panorama below
him.
Samson South was not, strictly
speaking, a man. His age was per-
haps twenty. He sat loose-jointed and
indolent on the top rail of the fence,
his hands hanging over his knees, his
hoe forgotten. Near by, propped
against the rails, rested a repeating
rifle. though the people would have
told you that the truce in the South
Holman war" had been unbroken for
two years, and that no clansman need
in these halcyon days go armed afield
