Rebuilding the NAVY

The United States had no navy
worth mentioning from the close of
the Revolutionary war until 1894
The Barbary pirates were attacking
merchant vessels in the Mediter-
ranean, and President Washington
on March 3, 1894, directed the at
tentlon OF congress to the depreda-
tions of the pirates. Congress-
thereupon ordered the construction
OF SIX frigates of not less than 80
guns, and the President signed the
act on March q. Arrangements
were made for building the Consti,
tuition, the President, the United
States, the Chesapeake, the Constel-
lation, and the Congress. The act
provided that if the trouble with the
pirates should cease, the construc-
ton OF the vessels should be
stopped. In November, 1895. a
treaty ending the raids was signed
with the dey of Algiers. and the
work was stopped. President Wash
irgton protested and congress or
dered the completion of. three of
the warships. One of them was the
Constitution which was launched on
October q. 1897. This ship IS pre.
served as one of the most interest,nr
relics of the navy.

II feel right down inside of me
that this is going to be a very ex-
citing day." said Peter Rabbit. He
squatted down under a low growing
hemlock tree to rest for few min
utes and think his plans over.
THE first thing to do is to find
just where Buster Bear is" thought
he. Il must hunt for him until
find him. l do hope he will be TAX
ing a nap. After / find him must
hunt for that hunter. 1t is going
to be fine day, and I'm sure he
will come hunting. If he doesn't
my fine plan will not work at all.
But if he does then we will see what
we will see, and have an idea that
it will be worth seeing"
Peter looked this way and that
way to make sure that the way was
clear. 1t was, and off he started to
hunt for Buster Bear. He knew that
Buster would probably be in the
deepest, darkest part of the Green
Forest, and so he headed straight
for the place where he had found
Buster and made him so dreadfully
angry only two nights before. When
he got there he moved very, very
carefully He didn't want Buster
to see him. It wouldn't do at all
to have Buster get so much as a
glimpse of him. So he took the
greatest care to make no noise and
10 hnh If
brush.
Peter was almost ready to give
up when he heard a noise which
made him stop, prick up his long
ears, and listen with all his might
1t came from under great pile of
fallen trees which Brother North
Wind had torn up by the roots some
time when he had been angry and
wanted to show how strong he is.
Peter tip-toed over to it and peeped
under. There was Buster Bear TAX
ing nap on a fine bed of leaves,
and once in while growing very
deep down in his throat. 1t was
very plain that Buster was dream
ing.
Peter grinned. Then he took one
more look before he tiptoed away.
When he thought it safe to do so he
ran. How he did run! He was 60
ing now to hunt for that hunter with
the terrible gun. Yes, sir, that is
just who Peter was going to hunt
for. And, funny as it may seem,
Peter hoped that that hunter would
have his dog with him.

Nasal Warriors Pick Up
Homes, Take Them Along

In eastern Africa, near the Eoua-
tor, live the Nasal warriors and
herdsmen. Although they have dark
skins, they are only partly Of Negro
descent.
Between the ages of is and 20, q
Nasal youth is a soldier Later he
marries and becomes the owner, or
part owner, of flock of goats or a
herd of cattle.
Nasal homes are made from hides
stretched over long poles. When the
people are about to start on .
march, they take down Their homes
and carry them along. The folded
hides are placed on the backs Of
donkeys, and the poles drag on the
ground behind the animals.
The leading men of the tribe may
have several wives. The favor4e,
is likely to be given large supply
of ornaments, including brass OF
copper wire, which she wraps about
her legs and arms. A large amount
of wire proves that the husband Ia
"rich," and the wife may find her
self loaded down so heavily that she
can hardly walk.
Nasal men are tall and their
bodies are well-formed, but often
they plaster their faces with red
clay or white clay, which does not
make a pleasant sight. Around
their legs some of them wear feath-
er anklets with little bells fastened
on. The bells tinkle as the man
walks. -

Colchicine Increases
Growth Rate of Tobacco

Long used as remedy for govt,
colchicine is a slightly poisonous
akialold compound which occurs In
the seeds of the meadow saffron or
autumn crocus, Colchicum autumn
male. Several years ago. DR.. Albert
Francis Blakeslee, famed geneticist
OF the Carnegie institutions station
on Long Island, announced the dis
covery of remarkable effects pro-
duced on plants by colchicine. The
drug causes a doubling of the
chromosomes (heredity carriers) in
the germ cells of vegetables and
flowers, producing sharp changes
which breed true. II increased the
growth rates of tobacco, phlox, on
ions, pumpkins, cosmos, radishes,
portulaca, dlgitalis 1t abolished the
neck in bottleneck squashes.
Since then, scientists have pro-
duced a spearmint with lemon fla
vor, bigger tomatoes. peaches,
strawberries.
DR.. Laszlo HavaS, a Hungarian
biochemist working at the Univer-
sity of Brussels in Belgium, found
that colchicine affects animals as
well as plants Certain offerings
(small fish acquire bright red tintS

covered that the change can also be
caused by cOlchicine. though more
slowly; and that colchicine speeded
up the action of the sex hormones.
Recently David Burpee, enterpris-
ing Philadelphia horticulturist, an
nOunced a new marigold, created by
means of colchicine Ordinary mari
Colds have two sets of chromosomes
in their germ cells; the new one
has four. Such plants are called
tetraploids. The name of the Burpee
creation IS "Tetra Marigold"-or
Tetra for short.
Four inches in diameter, deep or
ange in color, Tetra Marigold has
heavy, vigorous petals which make
the flower exceptionally durable.

Arizona Mines Yield Riches

Arizona produced $500 900 in as

of it came from Gila county, ac-
cording to DR.. T. c. Chapman, dean

MaelStrom Exaggerated

Despite the fact that the Mael-
strom, the celebrated tidal whirl-
pool between two of the Lofoten
islands off Norway, sometimes agi-
tates the sea for miles around, its
violence has always been exagger-
ated, even by such famous writers
as Schiller and Poe. Poe's descrip-
ton of it in "a Descent Into the
Maelstrom," written about 1910,
made travellers avoid the islands
for almost rs years.
