"She has a telephone system for in- ternal use and a wireless outfit for eX- ternaI communication. She is heated by steam and lighted by electricity and has scores of electric motors. Her guns are fired by electricity, and finally with her powerful electric plant she could provide the electric needs of city Of more than 5O,OOO people.
 "She harnesses and uses, with nice application, tremendous forces of steam, electricity and explosives. Her satellites are scout vessels, hospital vessels, supply vessels, repair vessels, dispatch vessels, tugs, desroyers and submarines. When the battleship has done what the ocean liner does she has not yet begun her reserve of gigantic ccomplishments-her war specialties. in her power of damage battleship Is truly internal"
 Admiral Sigsbee says that practically all the enlisted men in the United States navy are American born, which Is a great reversal of conditions that existed before sails gave way to steam. The present typical man-o-war's man is much younger than his prototype, but each year is increasing the average age, and this Is a great advantage to the navy.
 The young men who enter the service and pass through only one or more pe- riods of enlistment, preferring civil life thereafter, carry with them a sense of discipline and a knowledge of mechan- ical nicetIes that have much influence in shaping their lives and in populariz- ing the navy throughout the country. It no longer is the rule to seek men only on the coast. Every state is now well represented by enlisted men, espe- cially those of the middle west.-New York Times.

MODERN WARSHIPS
They Are Vastly More Than Mere
 Fighting Machines.
LIKE WELL ORDERED CITIES.

Each One Has It's Own Police Force
 and It's Court of Justice and Is as
 Complete as an Ocean Liner or an Up
 to Date Hotel as Living Place.
 The modern warShip is not only a fighting machine, but. like the big ocean liner she may be compared with the most up to date hotel or even with a well regulated commonwealth, ac' cording tO Rear Admiral Charles D, Sigsbee, |. s. N.. retired. The former captain of the Maine has drawn a pie ture of one of Uncle Sam's typical fighting craft from a new angle, and be says:
 When one of these great battleships, with her many people, puts out to sea she must be self supporting from her own supplies. She Is everything from a village to a large city, according to one capacity or another. She has her own police force, her own courts of justice and metes out her own punish. ment In no small degree she rewards as Eell as puuishes.
 Normally, and counting to the ut- termOSt corner and crevice, she Is one Of the clCanest and most sanitary es- tablishmeuts to be found anywhere. Her spring cleaning is administered every day and before the earliest busy hours of the forenoon. At her best she is q beautiful souvenir of patriot ism to the vision of the patriot At her worst, after each coallng of soft coal that she burns, we find her as grimy everywhere as a coal pit. In her war paint her white sheen has de parted somewhat, but her cleanliness remains.
 Her people drink germless water distilled on board from salt water over the side. She has her own ice plant, ice water, pipe line,' cold storage rooms, tubular fire mains and flushing systems, hot and cold water supply through pipes, and has bathtubs and shower baths for either salt or fresh water. She has no sewer gas, nor has she the murderous mosquito that we have on shore to usurp the iniquity of our old bugaboo, the household sewer gas. She has laundrymen and tailors, stewards, cooks and attendants. Her range of special artifcers is a long one.
 Her hospital and pharmacy are up to date, and even her canteen, while on the dry order of canteens, possesses some of the combined qualities of a cigar store, notion counter, confection- cry and delicatcssen store. With her hardware, utensils and mechanical ad- juncts of many kinds she could stock a gigantic hardware establishment on shore. What hardware house keeps on hand more than S1,OOO,OOO worth of supplies?

CUTTING OF THE KHALIG
Interesting Egyptian Custom Which Is
Celebrated on Opening Dams
Of Canal.

One of the most interesting of
Egyptian customs is that known as
the Cutting of the Khalig," which
is celebrated on the occasion of the
opening of the dams of the Khalig
canal, thereby causing the flooding
of the land for cultivation purposes.
The ceremony takes place in August,
when the Nile reaches its highest
level, and is really thanksgiving
service. According to. tradition, the
old-time Egyptians had a custom of
casting a young virgin, gaily dressed,
into the river as a sacrifice to the
gods; but at the present time the
Offering takes the more humane form
of dummy. A procession of decor
ated boats and barges passes along
the river, one special craft being
used for the ceremony. This boat,
rugged to represent an old-time war;
ship, is towed by a decorated tug,
and is well provided with musicians,
who play Arab tunes, while minute
guns are fired at intervals in honor
of the occasion.-Wide World Maga-
zine.

TEACH CHILDREN "THANK YOU"

Many mothers neglect, nowadays,
to teach their children one of the
first principles of politeness-that of
writing their own little '|thank you"
letters for gifts. My mother brought
up her four children so carefully in
that respect that we have never de-
parted from the custom. From the
time we could write at all, by week
from Christmas, we had written to
every absent Gender of gift. Most
of the notes we're Nstiff, childish
scrawls, for we were not, any of us,
budding authors. Now some OF my
friends take nearly a month to ac-
knowledge their gifts, and never
seem to think of making their chill
dren acknowledge presents at all

New Mexico Farmer
Cultivates Russian Thistle

The once despised Russian
thistle has been proved a life
saver as a stock food, by New
Mexico farmer, an Estancia val
ley man, who,' from desperate
efforts to kill off the thistle, now
is engaged in cultivating it. The
Estancia News-Herald of last
week says:
|. N. Shirley has wintered 18
head of cattle on Russian thistles
which he put up last season.
Also four head of horses that
have had no other feed, and
thistles have been the principal
roughness for four other horses
that were worked and fed grain.
The thistles which have fur
nished feed for all this stock
came from ten acres of land and
there is still a ton on hand.
Mr.. Shirley ran a cultivator
t through the thistle patch and
then narrowed t o level the
ground and put it in condition
for cutting and taking off the
crop. The cutting was done be-
fore the plants got tough and
woody, and the result was feed
that Mr.. Shirley thinks is prac-
tically as good as ilfalfa.
This experience has made him
an enthusiast on the thistle ques-
tion and he will use thirty acres
of land this season for this pur-
pose.
He is now kicking himself be.
cause for the past seven years he
has been sweating in an effort to
kill the thistle while in reality
the thing he was trying to kill
had as much value as the thing
he was trying to raise. No more
such mistakes will be made by
him.
