R. A. Williams, P. M. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought Bears the y/V/T , Signature of A Queer New Product. Notice appears in London Invention of a peculiar product, under the name as soap stock, prepared in Brindisi, which is large ly utilized on account of Its special proper ties. It is prepared by. subjecting the resi due of olive kernels to chemical processes under the action of sulphuric acid, after all means of extraction by pressure have been exhausted. Os this substance it is stated that during the year 1804 the quantity pro duced amounted to about 1,200 tone the medium market price for which ranged at some 800 per ton. The article in question, which is of little value as a lubricator, has a ready sale among soap manufacturers, and in yean when the oil crop has been favorable considerable quantities have been exported to this country, Great Britain and northern Europe. This oil is locally known as “olio sulfureo,” or sulphur oil, from the method of its extraction. The refuse remaining after the extraction is nnd for fuel for steam boilers by miliars as • mAtCer of economy. Heavy i Underwear Weather. of Navy rights. The lessons to be drawn from the Span ish-American sea fights clear, sat isfactory and conclusive. With the barely possible exception of the sinking .of the Merrimac, aS suggested by Lieutenant Hobson, the torpedo has played no part in the naval engagements, and of ramming there has not been any. It was even so at Yalu and throughout the war between China and Japan. But are We satisfied that if the conditions favored the use of torpedoes or rams by the Americans they would not have fairly realized some of the great expectations concerning one or both of these instruments of destruction? “The torpedo boat destroyers founder ed,” said the brave Spanish Admiral Car vers in his report to General Blanco. Yes, and the foundering was brought about by the good practice of the gunners of the Gloucester, a smart armed yacht. Cer vertrs ships were faster than those of Sampson, but they did not get away. Thirteen inch guns can hurl many tons of fehot and shell Into the enemy before the advantage In speed of a few knots an hour will avail for the emergency. The effect of armament on armor is not yet accurately ascertained. Several points have, however, been made clear by the naval engagements—viz, (1) that modern sheila readily set fire to the woodwork of warships, and that therefore wood must be avoided or made fireproof; (2) that speed is relatively more Important from strategical than from fighting considera tions; (8) that in fair fight superiority in marksmanship and quick firing means victory, and (4) that the Americans can do that which they claim—“shoot straight and obey orders.” —London Shipping World. It Gave Him the Bends. Notwithstanding the danger, there are always plenty of men to be had at the wa terworks tunnel. It isn’t so easy, how ever, to keep them at work. They are apt to tire of it very soon, and all sorts of reasons are given for quitting. Not long ago a stout colored man ap plied to the contractors for a job. He was a well built, Intelligent looking fellow, and the foreman at once engaged him. He was given charge of a mule and started in on his duties. Not until the third day did he show any objection to the work. Then he came into the foreman’s room. “Boss,” he said, “I gotter quit dis job.’’ “What’s wrong?” ' ] “Well, boss, it’s dat mule. I never see <no such a cantankerous mule as dat ar’ One.” “What’s the matter with the mule?” “Mattah wid it? Well, if dat ain’t de wickedest mule dat ever walked on two legs den I don’t know. Dat’s an awdacious mule. Good Lor’, boss, dat mule has dorfe kick me in every part of my physogomy. Dat’s right, an I ain’t goin to take no more of it.” “Did the mule kick you?” “Did de mule kick me?” The colored man echoed the foreman’s words in a tone expressive of the most Withering sarcasm. Then he placed his hands across the pit of his stomach and stooped forward. “Say, boss,” he cried, with painful in tensity, “dat dlngblasted mule done kick me so hard right heah dat he give me de ’bends’ fob shush I” Then the foreman paid him off and let him go.—Cleveland Plain Dealer.
