The Hull of a Drsadnouaht.

An amazing amount of material goes to the making of u 22,0o0 ton battle ship. Into the hull alone enter some o,S09 tons of steel and iron, an amount more than equal to the whole of the material from keel to fighting tops in many of the pre-Dreadnought war yes sells. Of this amount of material over 6,O00 tons is steel plating, 2,s56 tons Is for shapes, channeling and angle pieces; the weight of the riyets used exceeds 530 tons, these rivets ranging In diameter from three-eighths of an inch to one and one-half inches, and there are over 400 tons of specially shaped steel castings, ranging in weight from two to eighteen tons each. These figures include nothing for gun mount ing or special armoring, but are for the mere construction of the bare hull alone.-London Express.

OBJECTS TO SHIP SALES.
England Said to Have Sent Note of Warning to Bryan Over
 lnterned Vessels.

In the face of the administration making every effort to push through President Wilson's favorite ship pur- chase bill it became known that on Jan. 19 the British government, through Ambassador Sir Cecil Spring Rice. had informed the state department that Great Britain would question the strict neutrality of any country purchasing German or Austrian vessels now in termed in neutral ports. v
 The British position in effect is that the fortunes of war have placed the German merchant marine in it's pres ent predicament. which is a loss and drain upon the resources of Germany and that for the United States in the midst of the war to take action which would relieve Germany Jf loss would be an unneutral act.

Economy and Savina.

A sort of paradox iS the fact that thousands of people who make no et- fort t0 save dollar when times arc highly prosperous will develop and practice economy when work and ops portunlty are less plentiful. The best way. of course, Is tn try and save at least Il little all the time. putting by larger amount when earnings are ut their height. As a nation We are not taught that economy, which makes France the banker of the world and whose accumulations come not from vast exports of natural resources, but from the combined small savings, con sistently continued year after year, by the French people as whole.
 The French save partly because H has become hereditary and chiefly be- cause the children are brought up that way and are taught the dignity of ac- emulation. We. on the contrary. In a spirit of false pride, are inclined to scorn the necessity of saving. as though it were something of which to be ashamed. If our present expe- riences shall teach us thrift 1t will be n strengthening of great national weakness.-H II. Windsor in Popular Mechanics Magazine.

Superstitious Cures.

At an inquest in an English town on five-month-old child the mother was said to have given 1t Il decoctlon of snails and Demerara sugar ns cure for whooplng cough. She put the snails. alive. into the sugar in Il mus lin bag, and the liquid tiltrate was the medicine. It seems that the snail" remedy is known In other parts of the country. Hot lemonade, hot treacle and elderberry sirup are also given by the poor as cure, and sugared in- fusion of snails may be just as ettica- cious as any of them. -
 Walks round the gas works with the suffering children are still prac- ticed. Old women were great believ- CTS in this method of cure. and they used to be laughed at for their faith in h. There was method in their strange apparent madness. and one of the best known cures today is the vaporizing of fluids that give off com pounds similar to those emanating from places where they make gas.- London Tatler.

Legislative Investigating Con-
 mltia0 D}iVaS Deal.

lnvestigat ton by the New York state legislative committee into the public service commission followed long trail of neglected and suppressed com plaints of orders that were detiantly violated by corporations and of failure by the commission to make much effort to enforce its mandates.
 Most significant of all was the rev. elation that public service commits sioners are in the habit of having private conferences with officers of public service corporations and as q result subordinate employees of the commission have been ordered to tone down or modify their insistence oI corporations complying with orders.
 No names were mentioned as yet but there were significant hints that specific cases would be cited and docu. mentary evidence of this produced later.

WILSON VETOES ALIEN BILL
Literary Test Is Too Radical" Is
 Gist of Message.

President Wilson vetoed the immi grafton bill and sent with the veto a message explaining his reason there for. Closure of the "open door, and the use of the literacy test and other re strictions were given as causes for his action.
 "It is with unaffected regret that find myself constrained by clear con viction to return this bill," said the presidents message.
 Mot only do I feel it to be a very serious matter to exercise the power of veto in any case, because it involves opposing the single judgment of the president to the judgment of a major ity of both the houses of congress. but candor and a sense of duty with regard to the responsibility so clearly imposed upon me by the constitution in matters of legislation leave me no choice but to dissent"
