ment. He wrote:
"Since using the six bottles of your
wonderful remedy I feel like another
man. It has been quite a wonder to
me to know how one could have a
stomach disease like mine and live
and do the work I did. I just escap
ed the operating table.
"Now I can eat what I please and
it doesn’t hurt me night or day.”

DODGING THE BOMB
Easy to Sidestep a Missile Flung
From a Zeppelin.
SIMPLE RULES FOR SAFETY.
Provided a Person Can Sight the Air
ship Before It Gets In Its Work,
Dashing Out of its Range Is Merely
a Matter of Seconds and Agility.
There are well defined rules for the
avoidance of Zepitelin bombs. These
rules, it seems, depend upon the laws
of spherical perspective, and however
esoteric and complicated the calcula
tions upon which they me based the
actual practice ol' bomb dodging is
relatively simple and easy to master,
Wbeu u ”Zep” Is sighted In the offing
the first thing to do Is to determine its
course. This is done us follows: If it
appears to be standing on end and Is
practically vertical you are, leaving out
of account any cross wiud there may
be, pretty nearly in Its path and should
get ready to run to right or left—that
is, at right angles to the course it is
pursuing. Even if you are directly iu
its path there is no danger from the
bombs except when it Is nearly over
your head.
And because the bomb takes a very
considerable time to reach the earth
(probably twenty-live seconds when the
Zep is at an altitude of a mile) you
will have u reasonable time to “side
step” it even after seeing it start
llut any one who can’t run a hundred
yards, which is about the limit of the
destructiveness of one of these mis
siles. iu twenty-five seconds, especially
with the stimulus of a bomb chasing
him, hasn't very much excuse for not
being blow n up in this athletic age.
If, ou the other baud, the Zep when
sighted appears to be tipped one way
or the other —that is, its front or upper
end points to the left or right—you are
in no danger and can watch its destruc
tive fireworks without any of the un
pleasant thrills associated with the
peril of imminent death. If the bow
appears inclined to the left the vessel
will pass to the left, and if tipped the
other way, of course, to the right
Some allowance, however, must be
made for cross winds, as these great,
unwieldy bags have a very consider
able side drift.
It ii, suid to be usually easy to make
these observations by means of the un
aided eye with sullicieut accuracy to
protect, oneself. Hut in case the Zep
should appear very close to an upright
position it may help the observer to
get into a place where the vessel is
partially covered by the edge of a
house,'a tlagpole or other Vertical line
If the Zep appears to be climbing the
edge of the house or tlie tlagpole to
ward the zenith the observer is likely
to have an immediate personal interest
in its visit. In ease there is no house
or tlagpole available a plumb line made
by a stone tied to a string will serve
the same purpose.
By following these few simple rules,
says Professor li. C. l’ickering, there is
little excuse for auy one on the lookout
and able to get about with reasonable
speed being caught by either a Zeppe
lin or un aeroplane bomb.
it may be of interest while on the
subject to make a lew abstracts from
the description by a British scientific
observer of the fall of these bombs:
-The bombs could lie heard approach
ing as they rushed through the air
The whistling noise—a little like tin
tearing of calico or the noise made by
a gigantic rocket—became a crescendo
shriek of terrific intensity just before
the bomb struck the ground and the
explosion occurred. I estimated the
height of the Zeppelin as about 4.000
feet. and. neglecting air resistance, this
would give the bombs a final velocity
of about 500 feet per second. The ac
tual speed was probably less than this
and is considerably less than the veloc
ity of sound (1,100 feet per second),
which accounts for the fact that the
bombs can be heard before their ar
rival.
"Standing, as 1 was, at about 200
yards from where one of the bombs
fell the noise of the actual explosion
did not appear to be very loud. The
reason is probably to be sought in the
almost complete numbing of one's
senses. The feeling was much the
same as if oue bad been given a hard
blow between the eyes with a bolster
or some relatively soft object. 1 beard
a piece of bomb -zip' past me and after
ward found it imbedded in a balk of
timber about two yards from where I
was standing."
Upon the explosion of the bombs a
bilge cloud of black smoke rose into
the air. The destruction caused in
their immediate neighborhood showed
a curious freakishness The worst
harm was done in w hat appeared to be
pockets of high pressure extending out
in various directions, but apart from
the [Hissibility of being struck by flying
missiles the danger zone did not much
exceed twenty-five yards.—New York
Post.
