as a shock and may result in moving the average Englishman from his singularly lethargic state. The undersea war of the Teutons has been waged with considerable success. It has not done all that they, no doubt, fondly hoped it would, and the British still go about their busi- 1 ness much as usual, but the Germans have made the submarine an im- portant factor in war. The United States has learned a lesson from Ger many and strenuous efforts are now being made to remedy our lack of submersibles.
 The newest submarine developed by Germany of the class of the U-36 is said to be considerably over 200 feet long, carries oil engines of 1000 horse power and has from 800 to 1000 tons displacement. A vessel of this type has a surface speed of from 20 to 24 knots an hour and a speed under water of not less than 12 knots. It is also possible to reverse the engines ] from full speed ahead to full speed astern in about 10 seconds, which greatly facilitates the handling of the vessel and affords more safety from attacks by destroyers. Equipped with four torpedo tubes, two forward and two aft; with heavily armored con- ming towers and built with a double skin, this type of submarine far sur passes the ordinary undersea boat in power and efficiency.
 It is announced that the United States will build submarines more powerful than any now in use and with steaming radius which will enable them to cross the Atlantic and return without refueling. Ocean go- ing submarines have become a neces- sity in modern warfare and while undersea craft are already remark ably effective, the limit of their de- l'velopment has not yet been reached.

A BAD CASE
 AND ITS RELIEF
Lady Tells Details of Ten Years of Suffering Which
 Now Lies Behind Her

Wallace. Va-Mrs. Mary Vest, of this town, says About ten years ago, l was in very poor health, and for five years 1t steadily got worse. I could not stand on my feet I got so l could only drag about in the room. Most of the time l was not able to do my work
 l had terrible bearing down pains. my back ached all the time and was very weak. could scarcely carry anything and suffered agony when lifted anything. The muscles in my abdomen were so weak I could scarcely lift myself up straight, and l thought I would surely grow crooked. I had difficulty in walking, 1t was so painful I suffered in ,hips and back and could hardly raise up at all At times, l couldn't sit on the chair-would have to lie down I was in such agony. I just sat around and cried.
 At this time, about five years ago, I began to take Cardui, at my mothers insistence. After two or three weeks use I saw an improvement. The pains got less gradually until they disap- peared. In two months I could walk without pain and could do most of my work For about three years my inn provement was steady and continued until I had back my health and strength.
 The cure has been permanent, for I have been in good health for the past two years, due to my having taken Cardui, which effected the cure"
 All druggists sell Cardui Try 1t.

Needs Floor Coverings

Perhaps now that the spring house. cleaning is over, some one may have a rug or carpet she would be willing to let me have. Mine has given out and I am not in circumstances to replace it. as l am a widow with three little ones to sup port. I rent out rooms and like to have trem look as nice as possible.
 MRS. c. L. Instead of packing down faded and whole carpet or rug in camphor upon the chance that you may make 1t do next winter" why does not our notable house. mother of comfortable means send to us for the address of the widowed mother and let her keep it from moths?

Embroiderv Patterns Wanted

q read in the Corner that Mrs. J. $. offers to give away embroidery patterns. Would you let me have her address, or would you rather send her a card saying that l should like to have especially a pattern for an apron and one for cen terpiece? I want the patterns really badly. I have an idea that the donor would pay more attention to note from you than to one from me.
 MARGUERITE s.
 wish I could prove how mistaken you are in your last suggestion by sending Mrs. J. S. s address to you and letting you write direct to her. But, alas. somebody else did this before your letter arrived. The best I can do for you is to insert your petition and register your address and re- quest There are other generous souls who may have patterns for you. At any rate, I cast this line hopefully.
