jOMPVVHEnn NCAH AMERICA, May 21
0n Friday, May 11. I received permls
l0I) to Islt a neet of United States war
iblps, was told where to find It, how to
ch It. and tnat until Thursday, May 24,
I must not coney to the newspapers which
1 represent any ot lho Impressions that It
,houId make upon me. nor all of the lm
reislons until the end of the war
It may be of Interest to the public to
fcnow that the neet which I Melted Is some
where In American waters, and that, backed
tj- the proper authority, It may be reached
n several vvavs More than this I am not
Mrmltled to say, nor may 1 give the com
position of the neet. itor the names of the
iblps composing It, nor of any of the oin-
rtrs governing those ships
I must deal in lmposltlves If i Raw
, faults or virtues I must not particularize.
, In short I must tell about the fle.t without
Idling about It, and give a general Impres-
, ilon with most of the Impressions left out
I shall deal, then, rather with the hu-
oanltles of the fleet rather than with Its
aeehanlcv with Its aspects rather than Its
potentialities And with one particular ship
rather than with man.
BATTLnSHir' A MAN
It has been said that a modern battleship
s a machine It Is not It is a man Ills
lfs may no longer have the lslon of
. youth, but ho sees through a hundred pairs
whose vision Is twentj -twenty magnified
v many diameters by lenses exquisitely ad
Justed, his hands may not be large or
itrong, but they hae within them almost
a j-ods power to destroy
It Is as If his brain had multiplied his
ijes and made telescopes of them, had in
treased his body to an ominous and beauti
ful abomination, displacing 30,000 tons and
had lengthene'd his arms and strengthened
his hsnds until they could reach out clear
sway over the ilm of the world and there
smash and crush and tear and Ulll
It was twenty jears since I had set foot
en a battleship There was something
familiar about him and something strange
It was like meeting a promising friend of
your bovhood nftei he had grown into a
nan (I will not be-Bhe warships, nor be
her them They are men ) He had grown
eldey, wiser, graer stronger broader
taller and swifter And though neither of
us had forgotten the best, nor the worst of
those things which we had once had In unn-
Bion he eved me askance, and I ft It em
barrassed and sh
SKA LIFE NOW MOIti: KIND
The oftlcer of the deck spoke to a seaman
And by the tone of the veilce. I knew that
friend battleship had not only grown
stronger and greater, but so sure of him
self that he could afford to be more cour
teous and more kind Things happened A
weal camo and went One tin en dice for
the cigars One lost One listened and one
talked, and one began to associate in the
tack of one's head this face with the rlght
' ful name of Its owner and certain Insignia
i with the office of the weaier
No two fnces of the uniformed men
i tround the long, narrow table of the ward
El room mess were alike Hut they were all
' ,'L fine, clean-cut faces of rigorously educated
t' men in the pink of phjslcal condition Llko
! all traelers, th,ey were broad-minded, and
like all men who have been brought up
t ' among true alues, the were without
1 affectation of any kind
'I No two faces were alike, and no two
men, I think, at that long table came fiom
, the same city or even from the same State,
j and et with certain strongly marked and
! . fine Identities the service had stamped
! I them all
WHAT SERVICE MEANS
These men were a telling and a thrilling
answer to those who raise objections to
f universal service They were the proof
j that bv training and Belf-sacrlflce sectional
lines and Jealousies may one daj be abol
ished among us And that no man ere his
suspicions nre laid, will need to Inquire
whence another man comes
Let me try to show ou what I mean.
Ttom the tones of their voices I tried to
ruess the localities from which they came.
If I plajed this game with civilians I
should hit some bullaeves, but here In
every instance my shot flew wide of tha
mark I guessed that this man was from
South Carolina; Iowa was his State An
other I credited to Maine , his birth had
done honor to New Mexico
All this puzzled me, and I sought a solu
tion I could not give Annapolis all the
credit, because the chaplain, who so re
sembled the others In breeding, courtesy
and common sense, had begun his naval
career as an enlisted man, but I gave An-
: napolls a good deal of the credit, and the
rest I gave to tha service Itself.
The Identities were of the sort that I
should like to see stamped upon the frame
work of the average man, upon his face,
Upon his body and upon his manners. They
ere the Identities which result from learn
ing good habits at an age when the average
boy Is learning bad habits, which result
from travel, from standing up straight, from
hating normal vision and alnavs looking
People In the ejes, which result from n
common devotion to something which Is hig
her than any Individual; which result from
individual responsibilities almost contin
uously borne so that one Infinitely greater
responsibility can be borne In common.
NO TWO ALIKE
Tet no two of them were In the least
alike The. executive officer would command
a staggering salary as the head of a depart
ment store; the navigator's passion was for
treat circles and the stars and clay pigeon
shooting, there was one who dreamed of
ballistics as all dreamed of their wives
and their babies and their sweethearts And
there was another, by no means the oldest, a
long, driving man with a face like nn
eagle's, whose passion was for the ship
and for every rivet, screw thread, lens,
shell, cannon, torpedo and character that
made the ship efficient and terrible and
hom all revered
k As for the chaplain, If he ever goes to
Billy Sundaylng In my town I shouldn't
' wonder If I hit the trail It was he who
when one complained that they had among
them nine daughters and but three sons,
i 'comforted them by stating that daughters
oo not come home smelling or liquor aim
cigarettes,
BATTLESHIP A CITY
I have said that a battleship Is a man
It Is not It Is a city.
That It Is a walled city, defended by
terrible cannon, every man knows. So I
hall not here and now-speak of the magic
yes with which It sees the approach of the
enemy, the thick armor with which It repels
hit blows, nor of the terrible cannon with
Which It returns them I shall speak
rather of ships cooks and bakers, of buglers
and blacksmiths, of carpenters and
Plumbers, of prlntera and electricians, of
urgeons and coppersmiths, of musicians and
bandmasters, of barber shops and laundries,
Jt. amusements , and gossip. And I shall
nave something to say of Justice
The Government Is the flagship The
admirals are the aovernorsof States and the
captains and commanders are the Mayors
f cities and towns. It Is a complete
civilization, a floating country, to which
the devotion of Us seamen and firemen la
necessary as that of Its aomiraia, cap
tains and commanders.'

An Appetite Cure
U.TA1'AT can ono do when ho has moro
' nillietltn tlisn Iia nc,1s? Onn of thu
first things he can do Is to cat hard, dry
food so that ho will hive to masticate
every bit of It chew thoroughly Tho ma
jority of peoplo who cat too much do so
bccauo tho hasty manner In which they
eat smothers the Instlnctlvo reflet which
tells us we havo eaten sufficient food
When wo tako food Into tho stomach somo
of It is rooii digested and absorbed i It
reaches the hungry i enter and gives notice
tint food has como. so that wo stop eating
before wo havo eaten too much
Ono imy sit down to eat with so keen
an nppctlte that ho feels as though he
could iat an almost unlimited amount, but
within a sbott time his appetite Is so com
plete K Hitlsiled that be almost feels ns
though he should never vvnnt food ug.ilii
When the nppitito Is eompletelj sitltleil
that sensation of hunger Is inilto forgotten
What lai.hos the midden change" Tho food
Is still In tho stomach It has not Iiplii
assimilated or digested, hut n small sample
of tho foo.d has been digested and taken
Into tho blood circulation, and the bndv
hns been holllled that its wants are sup
plied, the stoiniteh Is notified to receive no
moro food and it refuses to etpand to ad
mit It
When one Is hungrv and sits down to
at, tho slo.u ich is not n largo open cavity
Into which the food Is dropped Tho con
dition of tho stomach is that of nu emiitv
collapsed pouch Am meh morsel of food is
received tho stomach relaxes to accommu
dnto it often when one has a sensation of
fullness and feels unablu to tako another
mouthful ho can eat inoie after waiting
in u, few moments he Is hungry again
rcopio wno mvo small appetites must
remember this and give their stomachs time
to (itiatp On tho other hand If a. poison
eats hnstlli ho may get his stomach
crowded full before the bod has had time
to say ennugii it is Important to cat
sloulv, and to ent dry hard food that
requires thorough rliewlng The use of
dry food and thoiough mastication will
be found a ver satisfactory remedy for
overeating
Another valuable suggest i,n Is to take
