(� Here's what Mr. John
James, of Caledonia, Ont.,
has to say about
them: "I have
had serious heart:
trouble for four years,
caned by excessive use of tobacco. At
times my heart would beat very rapidly
and then seemed to stop beating only to
commence . again with unnatural rapidity.
g P Y
"Thio unhealthy action of my heart
caused shortness of breath, weakness and
debility. I tried many medicines and
spent a great deal of money but could
Not get any help.
Last November, however, I read of a
man, afflicted like myself, being cured by
Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills. I went
to Roper's drug store and bought a box.
When I had finished taking it I was so
much better I bought another box and
this completed the cure. My heart has
not bothered me since, and I strongly
recommend all sufferers from heart and
nerve trouble, caused by excessive use of
tobacco, to give Milburn's Heart and
Nerve Pills a fair and faithful trial."

FREE BATHS.
London has 41 public swimming baths.
Glasgow has half a dozen free bath-
houses.
Shower bathe are the most popular
form of public batles in Vienna.
All the leading municipalities of Ireland
and Scotland maintain public baths.
Berlin has 17 free swimming baths,
lased by over 1,000,000 persons annually.
There are about 200 free baths and
washhouses In various parts of England
and Wales.
Ths city of Vienna bas a public bath-
house that oan accommodate 1,270 bathers
at one time.
The charges at the publlo baths in Eu-
rope are from 2 to 12 cents, according to
the kind of bath and the service rendered.
The city of Liverpool, England, was
the first city in the world to build a publio
bathhouse for the benefit of the people. It
now has nine such establishments.
The publio swimming bath and wash-

They are not expensive, /that at Charlot-
tenburg costing only $857.
In one London parish the number of
persons who used the free baths last year
was 626,000, about the population of St.
Louis. This is a sufficient answer to any
one who would bo foolish enough to con-
tend that the people would not avail them-

Could Not Dress Alone.
A Noya Scotian Farmer Tells of Hie In-
tense Suffering from Rheumatism and
How IIe Found Relief.
From the Bridgewater, N. S., Enterprise.
Such suffering as rheumatism causes the
victim upon whom it fastens itself is almost
unendurable. Only those who writhe un-
der its pangs can imagine the joy of one
who bas been freed from its terrors. Mr.
J. W. Folkenham, of New Elm, N. S., is
one of those who have been released from
pain, and who believes it his duty to let
others know how a cure can be found. Mr.
Folkenham is a farmer, and like all who
follow this arducus hat honorable calling,
is subject to much exposure. It was this
exposure that brought on his trouble and
caused him so much suffering before he was
rid of it. He says: —" In the spring of 1807
I oontraoted rheumatism. Throughout
the whole summer I suffered from it. and
about the 1st of October it became so bad
that I could not get out of the house. The
pains were located in my hip and back,and
what I Buffered oan hardly be expressed.
I became so helpless that I could not dress
myself without aid. Eventually ',he trouble
spread to my hands and arms, and at times
these would lose all feeling and beeome use•
se. In Nov9rnber I began using Dr. W il!-
m'e Pills, and after taking four boxes
egan to improve. After using six boxes
the pains and soreness had all gone and I
was able to do a hard day's work. I intend
using a few more boxes as a precautionary
measure, and I would earnestly aivise
those suffering from this painful trouble to
give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a fair trial

?OWER OF PENETRATION OF ARMY
RIFLE PROJECTILES.
Why the United States Government Adopt.
ed the Krait -Jorgensen Pattern—It Does
Its Work Without Mangling the Victim
It Strikes.
Tothe mind of r
the layman, who has
y
gone nofurther
into the a
rt of war than
to know that4 nowadays the side whioh
kills the greater number of men wins in
almost every fight, humanity as a consid-
eration in the matter of bullets Is an an-
omaly, 1n itself ridiculous. In spite of
this the moral principle cited has played a
very considerable part in the arming of
our foot soldiers, and, as said by an army
officer, has caused nitwit comment., that
has been unfavorable to the United States
infantry.
No ordnance officer will admit that the
criticism is altogether just when applied
to the arms and bullets authorized for the
use of the infantry, and when it comes to
other nations having better arms and
more effective bullets than we have, he
says "No!" emphaticfally.
It is not a question of how badly
a
bullet mangles the body of a man whom
it kills," said an officer skilled in' the sci-
ence of bullet making, "for one dead man
is just as dead as another. The question
is, How far will a bullet go and to what
extent does its course and speed depend
upon its shape? The power of penetration
comes under the same head, but that is
governed partly by the material of which
it is made.
"It took a good inany years for us to
discover that a bullet made entirely of lead
was limited in penetrating power. Every
officer in the army and navy knew that
steel would pierce any substance to a
greater depth than lead, but whoever
thought of using it for small bullets in
preference to the softer metal until the
roan who discovered the advantages of a
rifled bore found also that the leaden bul-
lets stick in the barrel and frequently
made the breech of a gun quite as danger-
ous as the muzzle? The revolution began
then, and at the present time it has gone
so far that while there are advantages of
a kind on the side of the explosive bullet'
and the mushroom bullet, the United
Status government does not like the kind.
"The question has been asked repeated-
ly why the United States have notadopted
these more destructive bullets, and upon
this the many adverse criticisms have
been based. Any bullet will kill when it
hits in the right spot, and, that being ac-
cepted, the only conditions to be rnet are
those of getting the bullet that goes the
straightest and the greatest distance.
Speed carries a bullet to the greatest dis-
tance, and if you have in your bullet a
material which offers the greatest resist-
ance to an opposing force the problem is
solved.
"It was found early in the life of the
rifle that load was necessary to give a bul-
let the weight required to make it effect-
ive, and then the jacket bullet of steel
filled with lead became a fact. The force
being supplied to carry this bullet two
miles and more•when sunt at a dead level,
the ingenuity of man found another field.
"Inventors vied with each other in mak-
ing the most destructive bullets; but, aft-
er all, not one has made a bullet which
will kill more than one man at a time
unless they happen to be in lino, so that
the bullet having passed through one man
can keep on until its force is spent: There
you have come to force again, just where
you started. The officers who have had
the small firearm and its bullets under
consideration for years have thought all
this out, and out of the fifty odd bullets
which have been invented since the war of
the rebellion they have chosen the best.
By the best 1 mean the one that will go
the farthest in a straight line and at the
end of its journey retain the greatest
penetrative power.
"It is not human to mangle a man just
for tho sake of making the horrors of war
more hideous, but it is human to put him
out of the fight and give hire a chance to
live afterward if it roust be done. It is
sense, too, for in these times, when nearly
all nations have improved arras at their
disposal, each ono may du unto his enemy
just what his enemy will do unto him."
That is ono side of the question, and
when the United States government found
a bullet which would do all that a bullet
ought to in the matter of speed and accura-
cy it accepted it with the rifle for which it
was made. 'This happened when the Krag-
.Jorgensen rifle and bullet were adopted.
All the improvements which have been
made in this gun and projectile since that
time have been at'topted ns they have come.
Tho inventors found early in the prog-
ress of the evolution of the small projectile
that a small caliber bullet had many ad-
vantages. The recoil resulting from tho
use of the largo quantity of powder neces-
sary to send even the .45 caliber Springfield
bullet a moderate distance was lessened
by the reduction of the caliber, and then a
stronger powder was made. The surface
against which the powder acted being
smaller, the 111 effects of recoil were then
not to be contended against. At the same
time the bullet attained a flat trajectory,
giving it killing power at 2,000 yards, a
greater accuracy and an increased pene-
trating power. The .30 caliber bullet,
which is acknowledged to he the most
effective, will go through 17 inches of pine
wood at 2,000 yards range and when
through that will pierce the bodies of five
mon. .At the same distance it will bury
itself 14 inches deep in sand, whioh, next
to water, offers a greater resistance to a
bullet than any other substance.
The evolution of the bullet was marked
by one radical change, but since then the
changes have been of minor importance.
After the steel jacket had been accepted
for the bullet other nations conceived the
idea of making the lip of the stoic jacket
as thin as paper, so that the impact be-
tween it and the Inmate body would spread
the lend and have an effect almost equal
to the explosive bullet. Our government
officers denounced this as barbarism and
chose the simpler bullet of the Krag-Jor-
gensen. Before this the Springfield rifle,
shooting a .45 caliber leaden bullet, was
the adopted arm, having come into Use In
1878. The groat things In the way of flat
trajectory and penetrating qualities which
are asserted for the stool jacketed bullets
do not belong to it, but the tables in the
ordnance records say that at 2,000 yards it
will pierce IA Imhof; of oak. They say
that the big .46 caliber leaden bullet at
2,500 yards range will go through 1.87
inches of pine, and at 2,060 yards it will
bury itself five inohes in a sand bank.—

HE IS THr< SAILOR'S MENTOR ON
BOARD A MAN-OF-WAR.
Varied Duties That Bring Him In Contact
With the Crew --Ile is a Petty Officer
and Is Burdened With Many Responsi-
bilities --Ills Place In Battle.
When Jack 'lar comes back to his ship
P
after a cruise ashore and finds on the next
niuruing'that lie has lust his cap or so torn
his trousers or any of his other garments
that in order to pass the next inspection
he must have new ones, 11e goes below to
a little office way down in the hold of the
ship and through a grated window tells
the nature of his troubles to the yeoman,
who sits at the desk inside busy with his
account books. If it is a suit or a cap or
shoes that he wants, Jauk first deposits his
money, and when his Measure for what-
ever article he wants is found in the rec-
ord book of the crew it is turned over to
biro then and there.
With all of his virtues, Jack is an im-
provident fellow, and tho government,
which pays and feeds him, knows his
weaknesses and essays to take care of him.
First, it has him keep himself neat at all
times or else gives hint a chance to sample
the ship's bread and water in a little cub -
by hole called a cell, and this being an
established regulation the government
furnishes to him the means of keeping
himself neat.
Jack must sew and wash and darn his
clothes when they need it, besides apply-
ing soap to himself as often as he can and
keeping his shoes always clean slid shiny.
That the means might always be at the
sailor's command year ago necessity
created a naval storekeeper on board ev-
ery ship, and tradition gave him the name
of yeoman.
It is to the pay yeoman, who gets his
title merely because his dusk is beside
that of the paymaster's clerk, that Jack
goes for clothes, .ncedlos, thread, soap and
other small articles. When his needs aro
of a nature not so purely personal—if, for
instance, he is to paint the ship, mend a
piece of rigging or perform any one of the
hundred or more odd jobs necessary to
keep the ship in trim—he goes to the equip-
ment yeolnan, the keeper of the stores
needed for the ship only, and gets What
he wants. But first he roust have an order
for the articles, and then roust sign a re-
ceipt for thorn, for the government, though
not stingy, wants to know whore every
penny goes and for what it is spent.
The engineers' department has a yeoman
also, and to him the engineers, though
they aro commissioned officers, have to go
for every article necessary for running the
engines, even to the oil used on bearings
and cranks. This yeoman has his office
next to the engine rooms, and there the
same form has to be gone through with,
no matter what is wanted. Oils, metal
for repairs, tools and parts of 'machinery
are kept in those storerooms, and the en-
gineers' yeoman is keeper of them all.
The pay yeoman has the duty also of
dispensing the daily rations to the crew,
in order that the sailors may get neither
too much nor too little. The sailor does
not have to give a receipt for his loud, but
all that Jack eats is charged against hien,
not to be paid for by him, but as a 1 art
of his earnings.
In addition to the duty of dispensing
the many articles used on shipboard the
yeoman has to make out all requisitions
for them when needed, and woe be unto
him if he makes a mistake and the ship
loaves port short of a supply in any par-
ticular. He stands as a sort of a mentor
over the sailor, and while there is no rule
giving him authority over the sailors'
morals yet Jack stands in awe of him.
Many a time ho refrains from some prank
or other that would end in his having to
go to the yeoman and explain why certain
things had happened to him or to his
clothes or to a part of tho ship's outfit.
He would have to tell the truth, and he
knows that he would be soundly and
roundly lectured. If the matter was any-
thing serious, the yeoman would have to
report hint to the captain, and then the
sailor would bo in trouble. This moral
right of the yeoman coarses with the fact
that he is a petty officer, and one of Jack's
first lessons, and it is often a hard one,
but always well learned, is to use respect
in his actions toward a man with a rank.
While supplying the sailor,oan with the
necessaries of life Uncle Sam does not
forget the luxuries, and, though .Tuck
afloat nowadays does not get his grog, he
has his tobacco if he is of the mind to buy
it and gets it from the window where he
obtains his clothes. He pays a few cents
a pound for it—just enough to Pay the
cost of manufacture. Front the same man
the sailor buys his pipes, too, and all the
odds and ends that he may need.
Each yeoman has a number of assistants
to do the manual part of the work. These
are yeomen, too, with one exception, but
aro yeomen of the second class, and the
head of each department ranks as a chief
yeoman. Tho one exception among the
assistants is the lowest assistant to the
pay yeoman.
Ho is a bluejacket from the deck and is
palled by the man -o' -war's 11101 Jack o' the
Dust, because ho handles the stores in
bulk, Ito is in reality the storehouse por-
ter, rind for his unsailorl!ke duties gets
extra rations or the equivalent in pay at
rho end of each month.
The chief y00nuul has the rank and pay
of a petty officer and messes with them.
Ile is usually appointed from among the
L•u:d• nen Iocnuse of some knowledge
tvLlch he may possess fitting hire for his
mase lie i; lira made a second class yeo-
man 31111 attain; his rank as chief of his
dr l ort uu nt by hard work and fitness, He
1, rot supposed to know any of tho duties
ei the st omen or to perform them, but
he I(11los as duos every other naval Haan,
that v.hrn 11 81111) goes into battle every
roan in list go to work, so after a little
%%mile nhnerd ship, long before he has bo -
come n chief yeoman, he )mows his ship
from stem to stern and can turn his hand
to almost anything.
Only one of the yeomen has a definite
and fixed duty for war times, the yeoman
of the engineers. His place is in the mag-
azine, and his duty is to unpack powder
and help the marines and sailors send it
up into the turrets. He is assigned to this
work because he is bettor acquainted with
mechanics than any of the others.
Once p chief yeoman, the aspirant for a
petty officer's stripes is as high as he can
go. He is above the sailors, but below the
warrant officers, and is, as ho puts it him-
self, the middleman. His pay is nearly
twice that of the seaman, and his duties
are several times more arduous and re-
sponsible.—Now York Sun.
