All Twisted Up.

Baltimore speaks Of doughnut with a hole in the middle. which prompts Philadelphia to remark that a dough nut with hole in the middle is crul- Ter. But this "cruller" is a toplofty term that is likely to be misleading For practical purposes there are two kinds of doughnuts, round ones and twisted.

THOUSANDS GAIN
GREAT BENEFITS
Object Lesson Gained by Trials
Always Repays for Hardships.

Experience is hard task master. Often
times we pay dearly for experience, but
il even one great object is accomplished,
experience pays.
II the experience of war-ridden Europe
will eventually establish real peace. the
price of war will not have been too
great
In the smaller planes of life each in
dividual has some costly experience,
only to learn some great object lesson.
Disease often wastes years of some peo
pies lives They suffer years of agony
and torture, only to be relieved by some
remedy or treatm :nt. Although they
have paid dearly to secure this informa.
ton, if they can relieve the sufferings OF
their fellows their experience has not
been III vain.
These facts are being demonstrated
every day. On one side we hear of a
woman who, after suffering untold
agonies from stomach trouble for fifteen
wears, is relieved by Tanlac, the new re-
constructive, while from another source
a prominent merchant testifies that after
spending hundreds of dollars for medi-
cine to relieve a severe case of chrome
catarrh, he was benefited Immediately
by Tanlac. They have paid dearly to
accomplish that object Others who
hear of their experiences, and how they
gained relief, will profit, however.
Thousands of men and women in all
walks of life are daily acknowledging
the benefits they have derived from
Tanlac in cases of catarrhal affections of
the mucous membranes, stomach, liver
and kidney troublds. They feel that
they should come forward publicly and
tell their experiences with the spirit of
helping some unfortunate who suffers as
they did
Tanlac has been found ideal in COM
batting that tired, listess feeling that is
only the forerunner of more serious com
plications As general tonic for half
sick, rundown men and women, il
builds up the tissue, creates a keen APP
petite, promotes digestion, vitalizes the
blood and brings back color to the
checks and sparkle to the eyes
Tanlac, the great reCOnStructive tonic,
is being especially introduced in Glover
port at Weddings Drug Store, and in
Stephensport at Shellman's Drug Store,
where the Tanlac Men explain its mer-
its and the results that may be expected
from its use

SUBMARINE OIL LINES.
How the Wells Of Vera Cruz Are rap.
ped For Tank Steamers.

Many Of the most productive oil wells
In the state of Vera Cruz. Mexico, are
situated near the port OF Tuxpam. For
some distance from the shore there the
water is so shallow that few Of the
large oil steamers can get into port
The oil companies hit upon the idea of
laying submarine pipe lines TO points
where the largest oil tankers can be
conveniently moorcd for loading in
any state Of the tide AMI weather.
There are now five Of these great iron
pipes in duplicate. They are from six
to eight inches In diameter. and four
Of them are nearly mile long. They
terminate in forty-three feet of water,
where It is so deep that the waves
have no effect on them. When they
were laid divers fastened to the end of
each 100 feet of flexible hose. When
not in use the free end OF the hose Is
closed and allowed to lie on the bottom
Of the sea. where its position is marked
by a small buoy attached to the hose
by n stout chain.
When the tank steamers arrive they
moor themselves to the permanent
Broys near by. lift the marked buoy
with n derrick, raise the flexible hose
to the deck of the ship and attach it to
the tank openings. BY means of sig
nal code the captains of the ships notify
the pumping station on shore, in which
are the valves that control the flow of
oil through the pipe line. Generally
speaking. il takes about twenty-four
ton tankers. which means that the
pipes deliver 1875 barrels of oil an
hour.-Youth's Companion.

III Paso, Tex, May Mexican
raiders who visited the Pool ranch
near Preside in the Big Bend coun-
try, of west Texas, are reported south
of the Terlingua quicksilver mines.
The people in the vicinity of Ter
lingua are much disturbed by the re-
ported presence of the raiders. The
Terlingua mines. which are south of
Maria and north of Presidio, were
closed two weeks ago, when Glen
Springs was raided, and all families
were brought out. but numerous
ranchers are still at their homes in
the district and fear is felt for some
Of these A small guard of United
States soldiers is stationed at Ter
lingua, and there is another small
guard at Presidio
A troop of the Sixth United States
cavalry is now being rushed to the
scene of the reported band of raid
ers, having disentrained at Maria for
the march southwest. Other troops
of the regiment, which was drawn
umn by General Funston. for this
duty, were unloaded at Sierra Blan,a,
which has been in fear of raid at
Valentine and at Marathon
Because of inability to get the mil.
tia in shape hurricdly for border
duty General Funston has asked that
all coast Notifications on the Atlantic
and Pacific be stripped of all men
who can he spared that they may be
brought Immediately to the Big Bend
district This information was re-
ceived by Brigadier General Bell,
commanding the border patrol at Ell

as to the effective service they would
render in such work To send them

Waterspouts.

A waterspout is Il miniature tornado
originating in strong upward draft of
air which occurs above the surface Of
body of comparatively warm water.
Its effect first becomes visible In q
circular motion at the point of the
cloud to which it ascends. This he
comes whirl. which condenses the
vapor ut its center. causing the portion
of the cloud there to drop downward
in the shape of Il gigantic jelly bag At
the same time the continuing upward
draft increases the rapidity Of its orig
inal swirl and the condensed vapOr
caught within it until the ascending
and descending masses Join to form the
waterspout. Necessarily by this pro-
cess the air beneath the spout is rare
fed, aud thus where the phenomenon
occurs at sea the water always seems
to be sucked up into it. although this is
not really the case to any considerable
extent.

MAKES TORPEDO CATCHER
Milford Citizens Invention to Be Test ed by United States Government Scoops Elm Out of Ocean.

New London, Aug. 14.-After being lowed by power boat down Long Island Sound from Bridgeport, a thir- ty-foot raft, with peculiar looking ap- paratus aboard, has reached this har- Dor after breaking loose twice and be- ing nearly wrecked. The contrivance Is torpedo catcher, and will be tested officially at the torpedo station at Newport.
 The torpedo catcher was invented by Fred Lapan of Milford. It's use by the United States governmen winch now seems assured, will be the means of saving many torpedoes dur1ng practice, and the inventor claims it will protect absolutely all ships using it from damage by tor pedoes.
 The catcher is an arrangement of haf-lnch wire cables in net form on an IT. shaped sliding steel frame, and Is hung from the ships side about twenty-five feet away. As the tor pedo hits the net it's head is held and the striking releases hydraulic pres sure which raises the lower frame of the catcher and rear end of the tor pedo above water, allowing the pro- pellOr to spin with out harm.
