Use Of Camera in Training
Marksmen Saves Ammunition

A saving of ammunition In the train
ing of a marksman has been made
possible by remarkable apparatus
recently patented by an English In
ventor.
The invention can be easily attached
to a rifle, and consists Of small cylin-
drical camera which fastens to the
under side Of the barrel, and is fitted
with a telescope focusing device, SO
positioned that its line Of focus Is par
allel to the gun barrel. Immediately
in front of the trigger Of the weapon
second trigger is placed, which Is con-
nected with the camera-shutter by
wire.
When a marksman has aimed his
gun and pulls the trigger. the camera
trigger Is operated just an instant be-
fore the gun trigger, and consequently
a snapshot is secured Of the target
that the gun was pointed at. The po-
sition of the target as 1t appears on
the developed plate or film Will indi-
cate the accuracy Of the shot II the

not only stimulate the appetite and the
digestive glands, but will meet natures

Man Is an omniverous being. We

and other wasting diseases and to keep
in the best form for the working Of our
physical and mental body, particularly
in these times of high nervous tension,
we should have meat or some good
vegetable protein as a substitute In
moderation once a day.
In addition to this we want fat, pref
| erably butter or cream or fats Of ami
mails, the latter only cooked sufficiently
to heat them through. With the pro-
teins and fats we want carbohydrate
(starch or sugar..

Seagoing Moving Machine.

California now has a seagoing now
ing machine. 1t is in use of the coast
as a part Of the government expert
ments to obtain potash from kelp. The
curious craft has blades at the bow
that cut the kelp from three to six feet
below the surface Of the water. A
belt brings the severed kelp aboard,
where other knives cut 1t up and other
belts distribute 1t in the hold. The
vessel harvests about two hundred
tons a day. which when dried Is re-
duced to 20 tons; that, in turn. yields
about FIVE tons Of potash. The rise In
the price of potash from $40 ton to
ten or more times that sum gives a
new value to kelp. which grows in vir-
tually unlimited quantities along our
shores. Farmers have long used the
kelp itself as fertilizer.-Youth's

digestion and a normal amount of ply
steal exercise in a normal atmosphere.
Life is a factor scientific medicine
cannot measure. 1t forbids the human
body from being compared with an in
organic machine or test tube expert
ments in the laboratory.
The digestive tract and its many
glands that vary in their powers to
prepare food for the assimilation of
the body, are governed by the nervous
system. They vary greatly In their life
power to produce digestive secretions.
For the reasons given each individual,
after once realizing that meats, fat.
starches and sugar are necessary In
various proportions to maintain his
health, will have to make an intensive
study Of what digests, so as to give
him the best health and keep up his
weight to give him energy. and permit
him to sleep, and to be Of good cheer.
You will always find that people diff
fer from each other in their selection
Of foodstuffs, some doing well on a
large proportion of vegetable food, 9TH
ers doing better on reasonable
amount of meat and carbohydrates or
starch, while others have to avoid
starches and sugar to prevent violent
indigestion and i'll health.
We often find powerful men who live
on very little food, while many frail,
lily nourished people have good appe.
tites and eat plenty. These things are
hard to explain. The laws of nature
are so profound that even today in this
scientific age we find the digestion OF
people differs so that we must at pres.
ent attribute 1t to the variation Of life
force.
From our actual experience in life
after long devotion to the feeding OF
people, we have learned that mixed
diet is essential to good health. The
practical experience Of the individual
must be a factor in guiding him II

Everything in Russia Is
New Since the Revolution;
Even Smile Is Different

Everything Is new in Russia. AS
one correspondent sees 1t, and Petro-
grad in particular. he declares that
even the smile is different. 1t is with
out sickness or hypocrisy. The ladies
are wearing revolution-color skirts,
red feathers In their hats.
The Nevsky prospect has become a
kind Of Quarter Latin. Book hawkers
line the pavement and cry sensational
pamphlets about Rasputin and Mich
olas, and who is Lenine. and how
much land will the peasants get. Re
turned exiles fit through the crowd,
recognizable by the Rue Bertolet cut
of their clothes and their hair.
Even that ancient institution. the
fve-o'clock procession Of Chinovniks
going home from government offices,
has lost its typical coloring. One
misses at first the staid, familiar fig
ures, till one suddenly realizes that
those rather long-haired young men,
swinging or slithering along with port
folios under their arms, must. OF
course, be the new Chinovniks.
Newsboys used to carry papers In
bag. Now there are so many papers
| and such a demand for them that the
hawkers have had to improvise stalls
at the street corners, and one may
pause there and watch the play of po-
litical sympathies and antipathies as
the hard-faced young workman buys
the Maximalist Pravda, or the dreamy
student buys the Radical Den, or some
stout elderly gentleman buys the
Novoe vremya with melancholy ali
Of resignation.
