that I had four years ago I use it oc

the same satisfactory results Off and
on for thirty years I was aunoyed with
tetter or salt rheum as some call it on
my hands They would scale over and
then break out little bunches appearing
and the itching would be so intense I
could not resist rubbing the parts and
this irritated them and made them worse
I tried nearly everything recomniahded
to such annoyances and consulted doc
tors but in spite of all I obtained little
if any relief until I learned of Doans
Ointment and procured it Its use
promptly stopped the itching and healed
the sores When cold weather sets in I

IN THE WHEELHOUSE
H Jm There Thnt All the Force of n
Great VchhcI Are Directed
On entering the wheelhouse of an
ocean liner a landsman Is likely to bo
awed by the group of Instruments and
masses of complicated machinery on
every hand Your eye will tlrst be
caught by the wheel or wheels for of
ten there are two or more of them ono
directly In line with the other Tho
first of these Is nu Insignificant look
ing affair perhaps u foot or ho in diam
eter which seems out of ull proportion
to the work it must accomplish Di
rectly in front of it stands the ships
compass while back of it are massed
many complicated wheels and levers
which transform the slightest motion
of the -wheel into the great force which
guides the ship
All the great steamers are steered
nowadays by the aid of steam or elec
tricity In the old days half a dozen
men at times would struggle with the
wheel in high seas and sailors have
been killed by the rapid revolving of
the projecting spoke handles The
modern steering gear makes it possi

many tons is perhaps 500 feet

astern yet with n touch of the polish
ed wheel the great 700 foot ship will
swing from side to side with almost
the delicacy of a compass needle The
wheel that the steersman operates
merely governs the steering engine
which in turn moves the great rud

The most astonishing thing about
the bridge is to find the wheelhouse
with all its curtains tightly drawn as
often happens and the man at the
helm steering the boat without see
ing ahead at all At night or even by
day If the light of the binnacle Is con
fusing the wheelhouse is often com
pletely shut In The man at the wheel
It Is explained does not need to look
ahead The lookout high up in- the
crows nest and the officer on watch
on the bridge will keep him informed
if any object is sighted The duty of
the man at the wheel is to keep the
ship on her course Throughout his
watch of four hours he must keep his
eyes on the compass and nowhere else
On one side of the wheelhouse are
posted the sailing directions which
give the wheelsman explicit orders
The course to be followed for the day
is placed in a neat little rack called
the compass control It suggests the
rack in church at the side of the pul
pit which announces the number of
the hymns and psalms for the days
service The compass control will an
nounce for instance N 7 8 W or
some such formula The wheelsman
glances at this as he takes his watch
at the wheel and holds the great ship
exactly on this course until he is re

IDEAS OF HEAVEN
The Romans believed in the Elysian
fields of the Greeks
The Haitians locate heaven in one of
the beautiful valleys of their island
The Assyrians believe heaven is in
the bowels of the earth or far away In
the east
Some natives of the south Pacific
think heaven a place where they will
be white
The Greek belief according to Socra
tes was that the pious went to heaven
like prisoners set free to dwell in un
clouded peace
According to the ancient astrono
mers heaven was seven or eight solid
spheres with a planet for the center of
each Some even ran the number up to
seventy
The Egyptians thought heaven to be
on many islands at the foot of the
Milky way Those worthy spent the
time harvesting beans and in feasting
singing and playing
Etiquette
Etiquette is a French word which
originally meant a label indicating the
price or quality the English ticket
and in old French was usually special
ized to mean a soldiers billet The
phrase thats the ticket shows the
change to the present meaning of man
ners according to code Burke solemn
ly explained that etiquette had its
original application to those ceremon
ies and formal observances practiced
at courts The term came afterward
to signify certain formal methods used
In the transactions between sovereign
states
A Widows Donlile Grief
A clergyman who recently called
upon a young widow to condole with
her upon the loss of her husband
placed considerable emphasis upon the
proposition that the separation was
merely temporal and painted in vivid
colors the happiness of friends reunit
ed after death When he stopped for
breath the sorrowing one heaved a
deep sigh and quietly remarked Well
I suppose his first wife has got him
