OIL FUEL FOR WARSILIPS.
Some New British Vessels Will
Have Such Provision.
The Davenport •representative of
the London Express learns that the
new battleship Hibernia, just laid
down in the dockyard, is to be spec-
ially fitted. for the storage of oil
fuel in very large quantities,, and
that her sister ships, the Britannia
and Anna, will undoubtedly be ad -
anted in the same fashion.
•In the course ef a chat with one
of the principal officials of the Navy
Construction Department at Devon -
poi t Dockyard, the Express repre-
sentative gathered some interesting
expert opinions upon the question of
cal fuel for warships.
Tee Hibernia is to have the whole
of her false bottom space 6.tted with
storage tanks, and suggestion has
been raised as to whether coal firing
will not be altogether abolished in
the latest additions. to the King Ed-
ward VII. class,
A navy construction official gave it
as his opinion that oil fuel would
long remain merely supplementary to
coal filing in warships. He admitted
that the method of employing it
would very soon be developed to a
stage at whish it would prove quite
as effective a means of generating
motive power as coal.
This, notwithstanding, the coal
• bunker was not likely to become a
thing of the past in warships for a
long time to come.
Oto point which, in the expert
view, seriously militates • against
the general adoption of the oil fuel
for warship purposes is its danger-
ously inflammable quality. 'An ex-
ainple cf this was cited by the Con-
etruction Department official. Some
little while ago, when the German
battleship Keifer *Wilhelm IT. was
. dairying out steaming trials, •she
teethed a rock with sufficient force
to Perforate her bilge plating amid-
ships.
An inrush of water followed, and
the oil stored in the fuel tanks came
floating to the surface. Had this
reached the level of • the. furnace
dooes, both boiler and engine .TOOMS
Would have flashed with a blue sheer
of unquenchable flame. • Luckily the
pumps were set to work in time, and
• proved equal to .keeping the leak
While this danger might be mini-
mized by distributing the oil in as
many hernicIically sealed tanks as
possible, it could never be quite eli-
miratted, and a bursting shell would
doubtless cause havoc.
HELP YOUR 'CHILD.
When your child—whether, it is a
big child or a little baby suffers
from any of the minor ailments
which come to children, or is nerv-
ous or fidgety and doesn't sleep well,
give it Baby's Own Tablets. This
medicine is the quickest and surest
cure, and the safest, beeause it is ab-
solutely harmless. It will help the
feeble new born babe as surely as
the Well grown child. Mrs. P. D.
Kirk, The Barony, N.13., says: "I
have ueed Baby's Own Tablets with
most satisfactory results, and do not
feel safe without them in the houee.
I find that one dose is usually suffi-
dont to cure the small ailments of
the stomach or bowels." If you do
not find the, Tablets at yOur medicine

A recent American review of the
book says: It has been left for a
Modest English couple, not, appar-
ently prohibitioa agitators, but stu-
dents of the history of English local
government, to discover two big his-
torical /acts which ,ecem to hate es-
caped the eyes of every one and
which seem to be the Alpha and Ome-
ga of the history of drink. These
things are:
• First—That for the half century
from 1780 to 1780 England was lit-
erally deluged with intoxication, al-
most 'to the extent which has de-
cimated native tribes on this coil-
tinent and in Africa, and that the
cause of it was the greed of Govern-
ment for a revenue from vice.
• Seconci-:-Th.at the only thing, ihat
checked the danger was a spontane-
ous, instinctive, • national protest
against indecency and degradation,
and that this protest succeeded, with
arbitraiy injustice to publicans, where
Government found it impossible to
stein the tide it had looriened,
CONSUMPTION 011' BEER.
• Here is some of the evidence to
show the state of things at the be-
ginning of the eighteenth century:
In 1722 the production of malt for
brewing beer attained the extraor-
dinary figure of 33,000,000, indicat-
ing a consumption in the year of a
whole barrel of beer (36 gallons) for
very man, woman and child of the
population—a total production not
again reached until more than 100
years later, and an average consump-
tion per head which has never sub-
• sequently been equalled.
It must be remembered, of course,
that beer in those days was the sole
national bevestage, taking the • place
of tea and coffee as well.
But, meanwhile, a far worse intoxi-
cant was creeping into favor. Wine
shops are heard of as early as 1553—
"A great -number of taverns have re-
cently been set up in back lanes, cor-
ners and suspicious places in Lon-
don," runs the preamble of 7 Ed. VI.
c. 5. "A tavern is •a degree, or, if
you W111, a pair of stairs above an
ale house, where men are drunk with
more credit and apology," comments
a contemporary.
NEW DRINK COMES IN.
But the free sale of gin threw the
,taverns completely in the shade. Up
to 1700 the new art of dlstilling
spirits. had been a monopoly in the
bands of the*Royal Distillers C0111-
pany. But after the revelation, and
as a tariff reprisal against France,
the importation of brandy was pro-
hibited and general permission grant-
ed in 1690 to all persons to distill
and retail spirits made from Eng-
lish grown grain. Government. en-
couraged the manufacture, because
"great quantities of the worst sort
of malted corn, not useful to the
brewers, had been yearly consumed
by distilleries."
No license being required, "punch
houses" and "dram shops" multipli-
ed.
"The result of this free sale cif a
powerful intoxicating liquor," says
Mr. Webb, "was a perfect pandemon-
iuld of • drunkenness, in which the
greater part of the population of the
metropolis seems to have participat-
ed. • Not only were there in London
6,000 to 7,0001 regular dram shops,
but cheap gin was given by masters
to. their work people, instead of wee -
es, sold by barbers and tobacconists.
hawked about the streets on narrows,
openly exposed for sale in every mar-
ket stalls • forced - on the maid Iser-
vents and other purchasers at the
chandler's shops, distributed by the
itratermen on the Thames, vended by
peddlers in suburban lanes and freely
offered in every house of ill -fame, un-
til, as a writer in the Gentlemen's
Magazine for 1733, says:—"One half
of the town seems set up to furnish
poison to the other half."
GIN REBELLION.
The orgy grew so pronounced that
in 1736 at the Middlesex Quarterly
Sessions the justices of the county
petitioned Parliament to stop it.
"The drinking of Geneva and other
distilled spirituous liquors for some
years past greatly increased, especi-
ally among the people of inferior
rank. Journeymen, apprentices and
servants are drawn in to taste and
by degrees to immoderately drink of
the porn i el oils liquor."
The result was ,ft very drastic pro-
hibitory measure. It was absolutely
ineffective. • Virtually it wa,s a rebel-
lion, and the Government recognized
its impotence. • "Every man • fore-
saw," said Lord Islay (Parliamentary
papers, 1743), "that when the poor
had gone gin mad and the rich anti -
gin mad, no one woincl give ear to
reason, and such a law could not be
execeted." Lord Carteret, told the
House of Lords that any magistrate
who dared to prosecute would be
lynched in the streets.
In fact, the consumption increased,
after the law, from 500,000 gallons
in 1734 to 1,760,000 in 1742. •
In
1743 the Blehop of Salisbury report -
"You, can hardly pass along any
street of this, great city but you may
see some poor creciteres mede drunk
with this liquor, tied cotriniitting out-
rages in the street or lying dead
asleep upon^bulks, or at the door e of
empty houses,"
• GOVERNMENT MADE MONEY.
In 1748 the Government, finding
linable to abate the nuisance,
frankly decided to make money out
of it. The bill of 1743 (1(1 Geo. II.
C. 8) became htw. Indiscriminate
s,cile was suppressed, and licensed
homes inciertsed (1750) to the in-

—Few people in the Capital are as

known to followers of the rod and

of the members of p,arliament who

counted among his personal friends.
The new, therefore, that he has
found it complete cure for a danger-
ous malady will give general satis-
factiou. Speaking of it he says:
"My friends all lenow that T. have
been troubled for years with Stone
in the Kidneys; that though 1 con-
sulted the best physicians and tried
nearly every remedy I could think of,
I was unable to get better.

houses in the crowded districts, while
out of the 12,000 quarters of wheat
sold weekly in the London market,
7,000 went to the distilleries. '"IThici
suburbs of tbe metropolis," wrote
Smollett in 1.752, "abounded with
an incredible number of public houses,
noise of riot and intemperance; they
were the haunts of idleness,'fraud and
rapine, and the seminaries of drunk-
enness, debauchery, extravagance and
every vice incident to human nature."
Such is a glimpse, of the drink ha-
bit in England from 1700-1750; its
novelty, to the ordinary student, is
in the revelation -that it was the
working classes who yielded to -the
temptation. We are familiar with the
tippling of the rich from fiction, but
few have realized that the whole na-
tion was threatened.
And how was the nation saved from
the fate of 'the. Crees or the Ugandi-
ans? Not by prohibition petitions
—not by legislation—but by a sort of
Carrie Nation business inclepeedently
inaugurated by individual magistrates
all over the country. Urged by pub-
lic opinion everywhere, one after the
other began suppressing licenses with-
out compensation. • The property
they had created they took away. In
ten years (1780-1790) while popula-
tion increased by leaps and bounds,
licenses were reduced from a total of
27,172 to 32,850. It was a striking
example of how the Anglo-Saxon
stock can be relied on to stiffen its
backbone, sooner or later, against its
own folly.
