: ‘ypes of Each Rapidly Changing in g the British Navy. ‘1‘ The day has gone by when the torpedo can be regarded as an unâ€" lreliable instrument of war of strictâ€" ily limited use. Toâ€"day the British 'Navy is about to be equipped with a torpedo which will carry a deâ€" tructive charge of upward of 200 ounds, and will possess an effecâ€" {ive range of over 7,000 yards, Ivhieh it will be able to cover at an average speed of thirtyâ€"one knots. l Such a weapon, says Cassier’s Magazine, is bound to influence bat-- tle tactics owing to its range and the accuracy with which it runs. The new torpedo in association with improved gunnery methods has already banished the familiar 8 inch gun from the newer battle-â€" ships and battleship cruisers, One _of the urgent naval problems of toâ€"day is how to employ the new torpedo to the best advantage. It is realized that it is necessary to build special vessels for its use; it is also realized that in view of the dangerous character of the service which will devolve upon ‘these craft it is essential not only gthat the British fleet should posâ€" l‘isess the best type of torpedo craft but that it should have these ves- sels in sufficient number to pro- vide a margin of safety in View of the inevitable casualties of war, The new destroyers differ from anything which has hitherto been seen in the British Navy. They are to have a displacement of from 930 to 1,030 tons, with a speed of twentyâ€"seven knots only; they will niotmt five 12 poundcr' guns, and be fitted with two torpedo tubes. The buildirg of a destroyer is a special trade based upon scientiâ€" fic data and carried out with a de- licacy and accuracy of workman- ship which is not to be found, beâ€" cause it is not required, in larger vessels. The establishments which devote themselves to the construcâ€" tion of such craft are a. national asset of no mean importance at a time when the torpedo is looming with increasing menace on the horizon. During a history recitation in a public school the teacher put the question : “When was Rome built?” The first to answer was a young- ster near the front, and his re- .sponse was, “At night.” “At night!” repeated the aston- ished instructor. “How in the world did you get such an idea as that?” It’s an awful thing to be green, but it’s a good deal worse to be born dried up. He who misses the spirit- of the law always makes most of the letter. Some interesting inside facts are occa- sionally divulged in regard to the enormr ous salaries earned by some insurance agents.

It is reputed that two a 'ents recently ap- pointed by the National Li a Assurmxco (inm- {iuny in one of our large western cities ave earned over Two Thousand Dollars ($2,000.00) at month from the time they stgrted to geg business for tl‘1is Qompany. “Why, I’ve often heard my dad say that Rome wasn’t built in a day,” said the boy.

A new physician in a small town got himself into a. serious predica- ment soon after his arrival by his inability to remember names and people.

But not Wishing to appear forgetful, and thinking to get a clue. he asked her whether she spelled her name with an “e” or an “i.” The lady blushed and replied, “Why doctor, my name is Hill.” An overdressed woman was talkâ€" ing to an acquainfiance. “Yes,” she said, “since John came into his money we have a nice country house, horses, cows, pigs, and hens.” “That; must be charming,” remarked the other; “you can have all the fresh eggs you want.” “Oh, well,” replied the first lady, “of course the hens can lay if they like to, but in our position it isn’t at all necessary.” “Yes,” answered the man. “I think we’ll be gone that long.” “Good,” answered the neighbor. “Let us take your lawn mower and your {,ui’dOH hose till you get back, will you ‘2” Kindly mention the name of this paper in writing to advertisers.
