170 MILK ST. BOSTON
.Philadelphia, Pa.—Amid tlie tooting
of whistles, the ringing of bells and
the cheers ol thousands oi spectators,
the battleship Arkansas, the largest
fighting ship ever constructed in this
country, was launched troni the yard
of the New York Shipbuilding Com-
pany at Camden, N. J. Saturday. Miss
Mary Macon, daughter of Congress-
man Robert B. Macon ot Arkansas,
was the sponsor and smashed a bottle
of champagne against the great prow
of (he ship as it slid away from her.
The big hull was launched without
a hitch and was pronounced by Secre-
tary of the Xavy Meyer, who headed
the official launching party, one of the
most successful he had ever seen. He
congratulated Miss Macon for the ex-
cellent way in which she performed
her part of the ceremony.
The Arkansas is about 20 per cent
completed and will be delivered to the
government not later than May 25,
1912.
When complete the Arkansas will
have the greatest gun power in broad-
side fire of any ship afloat. The main
armament will consist of twelve 12-
inch breech-loading guns mounted in
six heavy armor protected turrets. For
defense against torpedo boat attacks
there will be a battery of twenty-one
5-inch rapid-fire guns. VFhere will al-
so be two submerged torpedo tubes
and ten small guns. The total weight
of broadside fire will be about 11,000
pounds. The armor belts will have
an average thickness of three inches.
The Arkansas will be turbine driven
and will have 28,000 horsepower. The
vesel will be fitted for a flagship and
her complement will consist of, 85 offi-
cers and 1,030 men. The keel of the
Arkansas was laid last. January arid at
present the ship is about 20 per cent
completed.
There was doubt in the minds of
some of the spectators as to the con-
tents of the beribboned bottle Miss
Macon held. Some people in Arkansas
wanted her to use water from her na-
tive state, but she would have what-
ever the' shipbuilding company gave
her.
When the critical moment arrived
Miss Macon crashed the bottle over
the nose of the ship, and all doubt as
to the character of the fluid was dis-
pelled as the champagne foamed out.
The principal dimensions of the lat-
est and largest addition to the navy
are: Length over all, 562 feet; beam
over armor, 93 feet 2 5-8 inches; draft,
28 feet 6 inches; displacement, 26,000
tons.
The contract for the ship calls for
a speed of 20 1-2 knots an hour.
Increase Truck Acreage.
Berclair, Tex.—Farmers have taken
advantage of the good weather since
the holidays and are about through
breaking lands. The most progressive
farmers have learned the wisdom of
diversification and a largely increas-
ed acreage will be planted in truck
this season. Much new land is being
put in cultivation and both the cotton
and corn acreage will be largely in-
creased.

Doan's Kidney Pills Brought Health
and Cheerfulness.
Mrs. J. P. Pemberton, 854 So. La-
fayette St., Marshall, Mo., says:' "For
years I suffered from Bright's disease
which the doctors said
was incurable. I grad-
ually grew weaker un-
til I had to take to my
bed. The kidney secre-
tions were suppressed,
I became terribly bloat-
ed, and finally reached
the point where I took
no interest in life. • It
was at this time I began taking Doan's
Kidney Pills and soon improved.
When I had used 12 boxes I was
without a sign of the trouble which
seemed to be carrying me to my grave."
Remember the name—Doan's.

The Shadow of Sclfence:
It is hard to believe that a shadow
is probably the origin of all astrono-
i mical, geometrical and geographical
science. The first man who fixed his
i staff perpendicularly in the ground
j and measured its shadow was the
! earliest computer of time, and the
I Arab of today who plants his spear in
the' sand marks where the- shadow
I falls is his direct descendant. It is
| from the shadow of a gnomon that
j the early Bgy.pt lans told the length
i of the year. It is from the shadow of
I a gnomon that the inhabitants of Up-
j per Egypt still measure the hours of
work for water wheel. In this case
; the gnomon is a lhurra stalk support-
| ed on forked uprights and points north
j a*d south. East and west are pegs
; in the ground, evenly marking the
! space of earth between sunrise and
j sunset. In a land of constant sun-
! shine a shadow "was the primitive
I chronometer. It was also the prim-
| itive foot rule.

A warm bath with Cuticura Soap,
followed by a gentle anointing with
Cuticura ointment/ is generally suffi-
cient. to afford immediate comfort in
the most distressing forms of itching,
burning and scaly eczemas, rashes, ir-
ritations and inflammations of in-
fants and children, permit sleep for
child and rest for parent, and point to
permanent relief, when other methods
fail. Peace falls upon distracted
households when these pure, sweet
and gentle emollients enter. No other
treatment costs so little and does so
much for skin sufferers, from infancy
to age. Send to Potter Drug & Chem.

A Prime Cause of III Health.
A famous physician on being asked
recently what is the chief cause of ill
health, replied: "Thinking and talk-
ing about it all the time. This sense-
less introspection In which so many
of the rising generation of the nerv-
ous folk indulge is certainly wearing
them out. When they are not worry-
ing as to whether they sleep too much
or too little, they are fidgeting over
the amount of food they take or the
quantity of exercise necessary for
health. In short they never give
themselves a moment's peace."
Terrified Hero.
"Did you have any narrow escapes
in the surf last summer?"
"Yes," replied the life-saver. "One
lady whom I rescued was so grateful
that she nearly married me."
Hand Beats Machine.
Cigars are still made by hand, no
machine having yet been invented
that will roll thorn so .nicely and even-
ly as do deft, human fingers. The
cheapest cigars—the three-for-five va-
riety—are made of French, Kentucky,
Algerian or Hungarian leaves. At the
other extreme tyre the cigars smoked
by the czar of Russia, which are of
the choicest and best matured Havana
and which cost $1.50 each.
What a Trained Nurse Says About

Calumet has been backed for years by an offer
of $1,000 for any substance injurious to health
found in the baking prepared with it.
Does not this and the fact" that it complies with
all pure food laws, both State and National,
prove that Calumet is absolutely pure?
With the purity question settled—then Calumet
is undoubtedly the best Baking Powder. It
contains more leavening power; it is more uni-
form— every can is the same. It assures
better results—and is moderate in price.

Housework Tiresome?
"For five years," writes Mrs. L Fulenchck, Houston,
Texas, "I suffered with pains all over, especially in my
back and side, and was so weal: 1 could hardly do my
housework. A friend told me of Cardtii. Since taking It,
i feel so much better! Nov/ i can do all my housework,
and am not bothered with pains at all."
Cardui has proven especially beneficial in cases of
womanly ailments, with pain as a prominent symptom,
whether the pains come from too much work, walking,
standing, stooping, or just as a symptom of weakness.

If the mosquito were as big as it is bad, it would darken

fever with other forms of malaria that undermine the health
and sap the strength.
