Land Battleships.

SBritish are using some OF tnem loi
the same purpose
Land Battleships.
MIR. Baker said he did not know
how many of the !, 900 tractors sent
to England had been armored and put
in service as land battleships, nor
did he know what equipment the
British war office had placed upon
cars to be used in this work.
cit is true," said Mr.. Baker, "that
8 these tractors can go ahead over al
most anything. They, can straddle a
trench, go through a swamp, roll
over logs or climb through she'll
craters. It looks uncanny to see
/. them crawl along the ground, just
like a huge caterpillar. In a thick
forest, if they encountered trees,
they could easily uproot them and
clear their own paths.
Weigh $4,000 Pounds.
Mr.. Baker said the tractors sent to
I England weigh about $4,000 pounds
each, develop 120-horsepower and
are built Of steel. The caterpillar
feature, he explained, is of the ut
most Importance. Speaking broad
ay, the tractor crawls on two belts,
with corrugated surfaces, on either
side of the body. The corrugated
surface is on the ground. On the in
side of the belts, on each side OF the
body, are two lines of steel rails,
making four lines in all. These rails
are in short sections, jointed, and
operated over cogged mechanism
that actually lays them down with
their belt attachment as the tractor
moves ahead and picks them up
again so that the car runs on it's own
se.f-made track continuously. The
1 short joints in the rails make it easy
to turn to the right or left.
Like Railroad Tracks.
The body is supported by tracks
with five wheels, something like
small railroad trucks.
These wheels never touch the
ground, but run upon the steel rails
In the ordinary tractor about seven
feet of belt and rails is on the
ground at one time. Mr.. Baker said
that the machine would bridge any
trench that was not wider than the
5 length of the track it laid on the
ground at one time. "Bow'' might
hit the far side of the trenches fa1
below the top, and the stern" would
undoubtedly sink a little, but the
tenacity of the tractor, he declared
would enable it to go ahead and
= climb out.
The width of the track used on the
machines sent to England, Mr.. Baker
said, was twenty-four inches. He de-
clared that the ground pressure is
about three pounds per square inch
where a thirty-inch track is used, OF
less than that of the foot of either
man or horse. He suggested that the
British authorities probably hao
lengthened the track on the tractors
used in trench work, giving them
even greater power to surmount OBJ
+ stacles.
"We've been making these trac
tors for the British government tol
a long time,'' said Mr.. Baker, "ane

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
BY local applications, as they
cannot reach the diseased portion
of the ear. There is only one
way to cure catarrhal deafness,
and that is by a constitutional
remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition
of the mucous lining of the
Enstachian Tube. When this
tube is infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result.
Unless the Inflammation can be
reduced and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. Many
cases of deafness are caused by
catarrh, which is an infamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
Halls Catarrh Cure acts thru the
blood on the mucous surfaces of
the system.
We will give OneHundred Dol
lars for any case of Catarrh Deaf
ness that cannot be cured by

TELLS OF PREHISTORIC EGYPT
Lecturer at the British Museum De-
scribes Face Paint Found In
Ancient Graves

Mr.. Handbook has Just delivered a
lecture on prehistoric Egypt at the
British museum, the first of a course
of four lectures.
After a detailed discussion of the
dynastic Egyptians on the one hand
and the prehistoric aborigines on the
other, in the course of which he
showed large number of ivory, slate,
bone and clay figurines recovered
from early Egyptian graves, together
with number of skulls. he proceeded
to examine some early ceremonial
slate palettes, which are illustrative
of the fauna of the country at that
period, as well as of the artists skill.
These palettes were used for toilet
purposes, the malachite which was
used for face paint being ground upon
them, and it is interesting to note that
traces of paint are still visible on
some of them.
They are of further importance, in
asmuch as they illustrate pictorially
the traditional conquest of the North
by the South prior to the unification
of all Egypt under one monarch. the
legendary Mona, one whose histori-
cal counterparts would appear to have
been Aha-Men.
The early predynastic Egyptians
were Neolithic, and the fiints of their
workmanship are the finest wrought
flints in the world, but later on copper
came unto use.
The Semitic element in the Egyptian
language proves conclusively that
there was a Semitic element in the
blood of the dynastic Egyptians, but
this fact does not seem to have much
bearing on the connection between
the early Egyptian and Babylonian
civilization as illustrated by the use
of cylinder seals and similar shaped
mace heads in both countries in the
very earliest times, for at the period
in question the Sumerians and not the
Semites were in all probability the
ruling factors in Babylonian civiliza-
ton. Mr.. Handbook concluded his lee
ture with some remarks on the paint
ings on early Egyptian pottery which
showed that they knew how to build
and navigate sailing boats as well as
rowing boats from the earliest times
