MccdS SaU afxMilta Never Disappoints Torpedo Boata by Rail. Probably the queerest thing so far established In the case of the French submarine bout, Goubet, Is her trans¬ portation by rail from the docks of I’uriH ,SaintOucn to the arsenal of Tou- km. The Echo de Paris dwells at somo length upon the advantages of carry¬ ing a flotilla of small torpedo boats by tho same method. In one day they could be sent from the Mediterranean tti tin* Ilrltish Channel, or from the channel to the Mediterranean. Iu case of war between France and England, It says, the houtw moving on land would liavo an advantage over the British ships, obliged to effect their concentration via Gibraltar. The Goubet was carried upon an or¬ dinary fifteen ton car, but with the creation of special means of transpor¬ tation boa Is very much larger than the Goubet might lie carried hy rail. “One hundred submarine boats no larger than the 'Goubet could keep Pas do- Calais free from any attack hy an English fleet. And one hundred Gou- bets would not cost fifteen million fiaucs.” A Million Women have boon relieved of female troubles by Mrs. Plnkham's advloo and modiolno.

As you know, I have a clinical thermometer, and can take the temperature myself without troubling you to come In for the purpose."

Miss Mar¬ jory is worse. Missus said I was to tell you her temperature Is 108, and is rlslu’ fast." Scarcely waiting to put on my hat, I rushed round to the house of my lit¬ tle patient, and discovered the whole family assembled In the sick room invading the end of poor little Mar¬ jory, the mother wringing her hands In agony and crying dreadfully. “What’s the temperature now?” I al¬ most shouted In my ugltatlon. “Oh!” bobbed the mother, "I Haven't dared to look since. My poor darling! It was 108, and they say that 105 Is al¬ ways fatal,” and she broke down com¬ pletely. Without wasting any more time, I turned down the blanket, and — found thut the thermometer had been thrust between the child's side and arm, and the bulb embedded In a freshly applied hot poultice! — Cham¬ ber's Journal.
