How Soldiers Appreciate Books.

Libraries are maintained on all
craft belonging to the navy, including
submarines, submarine chasers, trans
ports, receiving ships, and warships.
On the warships the chaplain has SUI
pervision of the libraries. From the
United States ship Iowa comes the fol-
lowing.
"Do you ask If the boys appreciate
the books from the library? There
would be no question In your mind II
YOU had the privilege some afternoon
Of standing on our berth deck shortly
after Knockout They come from all
parts of the ship. They read every
thing, from biography and science to
the technical books Of trade, from the
textbooks Of college to the latest pOpu-
lar fiction, and they are at it all the
time. Anywhere after working hours,
you can find men perched near any
light plugging away the lonely hours
with fascinating novel of adventure.
Nearly every man not standing
watch can be found porting over a
book somewhere In the decks"

EXAMINING ONES OWN MOUTH
How Sufferer From Toothache May
Sec for Himself Why He Needs
Dentists Attention.

II will no longer be necessary for a
person who desires to count his teeth,
or to see whether they need the at
tention Of a dentist, to turn and twist
himself before a mirror, with his
mouth open, trying to make the light
strike so that he can get view Of
his molars and bicusplds and other
dental appurtenances. No, he can
now put the light inside Of his mouth,
thanks to new device which Is com
pact enough to permit this, says Pop
ular Science Monthly.
This device, expected to prove of
service to dentists and physicians. is,
In effect, an attachment to any cleo
trio light socket, fitted with a voltage
reducer so as to light small opal
bulb, to which Is attached small
magnlfying mirror, and which can be
inserted into the mouth and held In
place with an attachment to the
cheek.
The hollow tooth In the rear can now
be examined with ease, and a plug of
cotton saturated with oil of cloves in
serted to insure "sleepful" night.
This invention Is not intended to
rob the dentist Of his livelihood It
simply enables the toothache sufferer
to obtain temporary relief until 1t is
convenient to undergo dental opera
