Strength Appeals to Women.

Women are-or, should 1t be, have
been?-so bound by convention that it
may be the strain of lawlessness that
ties, more or less deep, in us all, in
them manifests itself in admiration
for the men who have chosen to be
a law unto themselves.
Perhaps the real secret is woman's
love for strength, which, despite eman-
cipated protests, is the strongest in
stinct inherited from the cave woman
still rampant within her. Most wom-
ems favorite character in history is
Napoleon, not because he was great,
but because he was ruthless, and she
will always have more admiration for
a great soldier than a great poet I'M
less his amOurs were specially notori-
Gus; but, unhappily, in any instance
she mistakes lawlessness for strength,
not being sufficiently experienced to
realize that only the bound are Free
London Ideas.

When Do,u souoht His Master.

There is a story in the American
Magazine in which a writer says:
"He had come many miles. He had
many miles yet to go. From sleeping
farmhouses dogs bayed him as he
passed, running like a big fox, silent
and swift. The road turned and twist
ed among the hills and small noun
tains. Ahead in the sky was glow
of coming day. 1t grew brighter with
the passing miles. 1t drew him on
The distance would have meant little
to him, except for the tremendous
speed at which he had been travelling
Now his chest was f1ecked with foam.
His tail, carried usually so proudly,
followed the Curve of his launches
His overstrained muscles worked me-
chanically like pistons. His heart
pounded his long, lean, red ribs.
''DiZzy, almost famished, he came
at last to the top of hill, and stop
ped, ears erect. Below him stretched
rows Of twinkling lights that, all to-
gether, made up the glow in the sky.
That was the city with the strange
building into which they had carried

HIS BOSS LAUGHED AT Him
Novice Craftsman Relates How He
Got His, First Toehold After His
Work Had Been Ridiculed.

never shall forget the first piece
of independent design with which L
was intrusted-a railing and gate to

fee in some business concern, observes
a writer in the Century Magazine. L
suppose I worked on 1T for about two
solid days, assisted and encouraged as
far as I was capable of receiving as
sistance by the men at the neighbor-
ing tables. When finally the head
craftsman came around to look at my
effort I was a very proud person, but
when, after looking at the drawings
for minute or two, he started to
make some criticism ana, unable to
control himself, began to laugh so
hard that everybody else came around
to see what he was laughing at, was
about as disappointed as anybody
ever was in the world. The head
craftsman was not only a great art
list, but a big man. He did not take
the job away from me, as he should
have done; he told me where it was
wrong and why it was wrong, apollo
gized for laughing at it, and gave me
In these few minutes my first teehold
In comprehension of architectural de-
sign. 1t was then that I began to

MEANING OF SHIP TONNAGE
piled as Occasion Demands, Are
Cited by National Authority.

The different uses of tonnage terms
when speaking of ships are causes of
confusion to the lay mind. Why ships
cannot be really compared according
to tonnage is explained By Capt. G. A.
McAllister, engineer liz chief, United
States coast guard, in an article in
Popular Science Monthly. For example,
he states, steamship companies, in or
der to impress relative safety of their
craft, will advertise the sailing of
certain steamer of 10000 tons. mean
ing, of course, gross tons. The COM
pany's agent, in entering it at the Gus
tom house, will take precautiOn to GER
tify that she is only 7,340 tons, when
paying tonnage taxes. He then is re-
ferring to her net tonnage, and in fact
that standard is used only when pay
ing dues or taxes.
Displacement tonnage is almost eX-
clusively applied to warships, as they
do not carry cargoes. Strange to say,
the tonnage of battleship varies al
most hourly, as coal or other weighty
objects are used or taken on board.
The tonnage of warships is, however,
fixed; they are referred to in terms of
the fixed tonnage.
A statement that 10,OOO-ton battle
ship sank a 1O,0O0-ton merchant ship
does not mean that the ships were OF
equal size. The merchant ship would
be much larger, owing to the different
meanings of the term ''tOn," as applied
to the two types of vessels. 1t is abso-
lutely impossible to give rules for The
relation of these terms, as the condi-
lions vary too greatly. Generally speak
ing, the gross tonnage of ship is from
so to 100 per cent greater than the net
tonnage.
