Among curious popular fallacies Is
the idea that an individual may become
obese without eating too much and
may remain obese even when very lit
tie food is taken. If a person each day
eats butter ball weighing only third
of an ounce in excess of the food
actually needed it seems trifiing, insig-
nificant, but continued over year 1t
would involve gain in weight of nine
pounds of fatty tissue or in ten years
of ninety pounds. An ounce of bread
or half glass of milk more than the
food requirement for the day will bring
about the same result. Conversely, II

OPERATING A SUBMARINE.
The Method When the Ship is About
TO Make an Attack.

to Make an ATTACK.
Every submarine has its commander
generally a captain-who acts as the
very brains of the ship. No one else
can give orders, for so intercOnneeted
are all the machines that the conflict
ing commands from more than one Off
Ger would almost surely result In an
accident; hence every one reports di-
rectly to the captain through the sec
ond officer in command, who, by the
way. is also responsible for the correct
operation Of everything from the bal
last tanks to the torpedOes.
In making the attack the captain
mans the periscope il the main oper-
ating room, just beneath the coming
tower. The lenses and prisms in the
periscope tube transmit the images
from the sighting piece above the wa
ter down to the periscope eyepiece.
When the vessel dives the decks are
first cleared Then the matches are
sealed down and the oil engines are
stopped In quick succession. Storage
batteries are turned ON to drive the
electric propelling motors. Electric
machinery must be used under water
because the oil engines consume pre-
cious air and exhaust poisonous gases.
On the next word from the captain
water from outside is allowed to NIL
the huge ballast tanks in the central
hull. Other ballast tanks at the ends
Of the boat are partially filled to hold
the ship on an even keel. This trim
ming of the submarine, of course, can
be delcdtely controlled by the buOyan-
cy gauges and controls in the operating
room
The weight of all this water causes
the submarine to sink, but not com
pletely. The horizontal rudders at the
stern of the ship are used to give the
final touches to the dive. The com
mander directs the man at the wheel
how far down be wishes to go. By
watching the depth gauges in front OF
him the wheelman can SO tip the div
ing rudders that the proper depth can
be found Immediately and held exactly
1t takes but minute or two to dive.
In torpedoing Il ship the vessel must
be turned to aim the torpedo tubes,
which lie parallel with the central axis
Of the submarine-in the bow. The
command is given to fire. The gunners
in the forward compartment receive
the order through speaking tubes or
telephones. The torpedo is discharged
from Its tube by compressed air.-Pop-
ular Science Monthly.
