Power of New Warships.
Each Dreadnought shell weighs 850
pounds, is discharged by 205 pounds
of cordite, the most powerful explo
sive known, and leaves the gun's muz
zle at a speed of 2,000 miles an hour.
That means a mile in 1 t-5 seconds.
If that shell kept up its initial velo
city it would fly from England to New
York in an hour and a half, around
the world in 12 hours and to the
Dioon In five days. The shell's ener
gy as it leaves the gun is . equal to
the force required to pull 15 or 20
60-car freight trains of 30 tons to each
car. A locomotive with such power
could draw a train of loaded freight
cars four miles long. Scientists say
that if all the Dreadnought's guns
could be combined into one and fired
the projectile would never return to
the earth, but would revolve f6rever
about it as a tiny satellite. Single
handed, such a warship as the Dread

Respect for German Policemen.
Herr Muerbe, a Dresden school
master, on visiting Halle lately, went
up to a policeman, and touching his
hat, begged in, a courteous tone to be
directed to his destination. The po
liceman stared at him, and told him
that if he desired a reply he must
speak more respectfully his interro
gator must in fact take off his hat.
This was too much for Herr Muerbe,
who asked the policeman not to be
insolent. Legal proceedings followed,
and the Court has decided that, while
Herr Muerbe was not obliged to take
off his hat when addressing a police
man, he must pay a fine of 10 marks
for using the word ''insolent" Lon

There are two classes of remedies; those of known qual
ity and which are permanently beneficial In effect, actinf?
gently, In harmony with lniture, when nature iieeua assist
ance; and another class, composed of preparations of
unknown, uncertain ami inferior character, acting" tempo
rarily, lut injuriously, as a result of forcing- tho natural
functions unnecessarily. One of tlio most exceptional of
the remedies of known quality and rxcelleuco Is tlio ever
pleasant Syrup of Figs, manufactured Ly the California
Fig Syrup Co., which represents the activo principles of
plants, known to act most beneficially, in a pleasant syrup,
in which tlio wholesomo Californian blue ilgs are used to con-
tributa their rich, yet delicate, fruity flavor. It is tho remedy
of all remedies to sweeten and refresh and cleanse the system
(fently and naturally, and to assist one iu overcoming- consti
pation aud the many ills resulting therefrom. Its activo princi
ples and quality are known to physicians generally, and the
remedy lias therefore met with their approval, as well as with
the favor of many millions of well informed persons who know
of their own personal knowledge and from actual experience
that it is a most excellent laxative remedy. AVe do not claim that
it w ill cure all manner of ills, lut recommend it for what it really
represents, a laxative remedy of known quality and excellence,
containing nothing of an objectionable or Injurious character.
There are two classes of purchasers; those who aro informed
as to the quality of what they buy and tho reasons for tho excellence
of articles of exceptional merit, aud who do not lack courage to go
elsewhere when a dealer offers' an imitation of any well known
article; but, unfortunately, there are some people who do not know,
and who allow themselves to bo imposed opon. They cannot expect
Us beneficial effects if they do not get the genuine remedy.

that nearly all of them value their repntation for professional

Ancient Glass Mirrors.
An American scientist . has lately
Interested the French Academy of
Sciences in his researches concerning
the glass mirrors thnt were used In
ancient times in Thrace and Egypt.
These mirrors were backed with a
highly polished metal, the nature of
which has been In question for many
years. The American scientist has
discovered that the metal was almost
pure lead, and he believes that the
method of manufacture was to pour
the molten lead on the concave sur
face of discs cut- from balloons of
blown glass. In consequence of their
shape the mirrors minimized the
images of objects looked at in them.

The Fate of the Chamois. .
Switzerland Is awakening to the
necessity of government Intervention
if the chamois is not to become as
extinct In the Alps as the buffalo In
America. In the Grisons 'the killing
of chnmois was prohibited last year.
Shooting licenses have been issued
this year, but next year again will be
a close year, and so will 1909. Police
reports show that between 1875 and
1905 the number of chamois slaugh
tered in the canton reached the huge
total of 34,308. If the 6,000 chamois
still surviving in the Grisons are to be
preserved, and if the animal Is not to
be lost in other cantons, something
more thnn alternate close years will
be needed. When the sportsman took
the risks of the rocks and went to
shoot his chamois for food where he
found him there was no danger of ex
termination. It is the safer but more
cruel system of "drives" which caus
es whole herd3 to be shot down at
once. New York Tribune.

When a person eeU up in the morning
with a dull headache and a tired, stretchy

that the liver, or bowels, or both, are de

At such times Nature, the wisest and

give warning that she needs the help and
gentle assistance which can best be ob
tained from that old family remedy, Brand

Doctors and Remedies Fruitless Snf
Xcrcd 10 Years Completely Cured
by Three ISoxes of Cutlciira.
"When I was about nine years old small
sores nppeared on each of my lower limbs,
I scratched them with s brass pin, and
shortly afterwards both of those limbs be
came so sore that I could scarcely walk
When I had been suffering for about
month the sores began to heal, but small
scaly eruptions appeared where the sores
had been. From that time onward I was
troubled by such severe itching that, until
1 became accustomed to it, I would scratch
the sores until the blood began to Sow.
This would stop the itching for a few
days, but scaly places would appear again
and the itching would accompany them.
After I suffered about ten years I made s
renewed effort to effect a cure. The emo
tions by this time had appeared on every
part of my body except my face and
hands. The best doctor in my nativs
county advised me to use arsenic in small
doses and a salve. 1 then used to baths
the sores in a mixture which gave almost
intolerable pain. In addition I used other
remedies, such ss iodine, sulphur, zinc
salve, 's Salve, Ointment, and
in fact I was continually giving some rem
edy a fair trial, never using less than ons
or two boxes or bottles. All this was
fruitless. Finally my hair began to fall
out and I was rapidly becoming bald. I
used ' , but it did no good,
A few months after, having used almost
everything else, I thought . I would try,
Cuticura Ointment, having previously used
Cuticura Soap and being pleased with it.
After using three boxes 1 was completely
cured, and my hair was restored, after
fourteen years of suffering and an expen
diture of at least $50 to $G0 in vainly en
deavoring to find a cure. I shall be glad
to write to any one who may be interested
in my cure. B. Hiram Mattingly, Ver
