MADE A NEW FASHION.
Jake Played in Old Days a
Would-Be Fashionable.
Oli Camden, in his "Remains," tells
-a good story of a trick played by a
knight -upon a would-be fashionable
shoemaker. Sir Philip Calthrop
purged John Drakes, the shoemaker
of Norwich in the time of King Henry
VIIL, of the proud humor which our
people hare to be of the gentlemen's
cut This knight bought as much fine
French tawny cloth as should make
him a gown, and sent it to the tailor's
to be made. John Drakes, a shoe
maker, coming to this tailor's and see
ing the knight's gown cloth lying
there, bid the tailor buy cloth of the
same price and pattern and make it
of the same fashion as the knight's.
Not long after the knight, coming in
to the tailor to be measured for his
gown, and perceiving the like cloth
lying there, asked whose it was.
"John Drakes', the shoemaker, who
will have it made, of the self-same
fashion that yours is made of." "Then
make mine as full of cuts as the
shears will make it!" John Drakes
had no time to go for his gown till
Christmas day, when he meant to
wear it Perceiving the same to be
full of cuts, he began to swear at the
tailor. "I have done naught but what
you bid me," quoth the tailor, "for
as Sir Philip Calthrop's garment is,
even so have I made yours." "By my
latehet!" quoth John Drakes, "I will
never wear gentlemen's fashions
again!" London T. P.'s Weekly.
ALCOHOL IN MEDICINES.
Seventy-Five Per Cent of Doctors'
Prescriptions Call for It.
Now that the National Pure Food
and Drugs law is in effect all "patent"
medicines in liquid form bear on the
label a statement of the percentage
of alcohol contained in them. The
average amount of alcohol is said to
be about ten per cent, some have more
and some less, but that is about the
average. Alcohol is everywhere rec
ognized as a chemical necessity for
the preservation of organic substance
from deterioration, and from freez
ing and It is also required to dissolve
substances not soluble in water.
But for the use of a small quantity
of alcohol in most ready-to-use medi
cines those preparations which most
families keep constantly on hand
would likely be decayed or frozen
when their use became necessary.
Alcohol is an indispensable requi
site in the fluid extracts and tinctures
which are exclusively used in filling
prescriptions written by physicians,
and these tinctures and extracts con
tain from 20 to 90 per cent of alco
hol. More than 75 per cent of all
the liquid medicines prescribed by
physicians contain alcohol in large
proportions.
Charles A. Rapelye, a leading phar
macist of Hartford, Conn., some time
ago examined 25 prescriptions repre
senting a fair average of those writ
ten by physicians to be compounded,
and none being for specialties. The
average amount of alcohol in the
whole number was 35 per cent; but
of the 25 prescriptions five contained
no alcohol, so that the average per
centage of the remaining 20 which
did contain alcohol was nearly 45 per
cent; or more than four times the
probable average alcoholic strength of
"patent" medicines.
There is some difference of opinion
as to whether it is or is not desirable
as a stimulant in case of sickness,
but there is no difference of opinion
as to the necessity for its use as a sol
vent and preservative in most cases.
The attention of the medical world
has recently been called to a mani
festo issued by prominent London
physicians who, while deploring the
evils from the use of alcoholic bev
erages, are convinced "of the correct
ness of the opinion so long and gener
ally held, that in disease alcohol is a
rapid and trustworthy restorative"
and that in man' cases it may be
truly described as life-preserving, ow
ing to its power to sustain cardiac and
nervous energy, while protecting the
nitrogenous tissues. This manifesto
which was published in The Lancet,
was issued and signed by T. J. Mc

FULTON'S DREAM
OF NAVAL WAR
IS REALIZED
HIS PLEA FOR TORPEDO
BOATS WAS MADE MORE
THAN CENTURY AGO.
ANTIDOTE TO SEA POWER
PLAN OF ATTACK IN EIGHT-OARED
GALLEYS DIFFERS LITTLE
FROM MODERN TACTICS.
Before the Age of Steam, the Great
Inventor Asked the President and
National Legislature to Organize
Defense with Great Flotilla of Tor
pedo Boats Asserted That Such
Engines Would Mean "Liberty of
the Seas" Demonstartion of Their
Power.
New York. Prophecy rests in every
line of a book yellowed by a century
in which are set forth the views of
Robert Fulton on the submarine war
fare of the future. Attention has been
called to the old volume just at the
time, when tests of under-sea craft
are in progress, under the direction
of the United States navy. Hardly
an element exists of the art of attack
and defense now used in that warfare
beneath the waters but was recog
nized by the genius to whom the
achievements of steam navigation are
due.
Coincident with the celebration of
the centenary of the day on which
Robert Fulton's first steamship trav
ersed the waters of New York harbor
his almost clairvoyant insight is veri
fied. The volume in which he out
lines his plans is entitled "Torpedo
War and Submarine Explosions, by
Robert Fulton, Fellow of the American
Philosophical Society and of the Unit
ed States Military and Philosophical
Society."
It was printed in 1810 in this city
by William Elliott, of No. 114 Water
street On the title page, serving as
a text are the words "The Liberty of
the Seas Will Be the Happiness of the
Earth
Not only did the inventor foresee
practically all that would come to pass
in warfare, but by a hundred years he
anticipated the arguments which are
now being made by the advocates of
peace against the use of the subma
rine vessels.
Were he here to-day face to face
with the members of The Hague peace
conference he wonld be in a position
to meet every argument which they
might make against employing craft
which, by sending out torpedoes, deal
out death unseen.
To President Madison.
His pamphlet is in the form of an
unofficial report directed to James
Madison, president of the United
States, and "to the members of both
houses of congress. In its opening
pages Mr. Fulton invites them to fol
low the origin and progress of torpedo
warfare in order that they might "form
a correct judgment of the propriety of
adopting it as a means of our national
defense."
He speaks frankly of the difficulties
and embarrassments which he had
undergone and gives the impression
that he realizes that the campaign for
the adoption of such a method of war
fare will be beset with obstacles of
every kind.
Although he does not mention it in
this work, he never was able to put
into practice the far-reaching schemes
for the building of submarine boats
which he had in mind. His proto
type of the craft which are now be
ing tested was called the Nautilus. It
was refused In turn by the govern
ments of the United States, of Great
Britain and of France.
"I believe that it is generally known
that I endeavored for many years to
get torpedoes introduced into practice
in France and England," he writes,
"which, though unsuccessful, gave me
the opportunity of making numerous
very interesting experiments on a
large scale, by which I discovered er
rors in the combinations of the ma
chinery and methods of fixing the tor
pedoes to a ship, which errors in the
machinery have been corrected, and I
believe I have found means of attach
ing the torpedoes to a vessel which
will seldom fail of success. It is the
result of my experience which I now
submit to your consideration, and,
hoping you will feel interest in my in
vention, I beg for your deliberate pe
rusal and reflection."
Desultory efforts to use torpedoes in
naval warfare had been made as early
as the sixteenth century, but no mili
tary or naval authorities even a hun
dred years ago believed it would be
possible to introduce so irregular a
plan of sea fighting.
His First Experiment.
Robert Fulton was working in Eng
land under the patronage of two no-
blemen when, after much negotiation, only foresaw the extension of subma

COINS THAT ARE SPURIOUS.
How They Are Made and How They
Can Be Detected.
The most dangerous counterfeits
are struck from a die and are usually
imitations of gold coins. Molds of
various kinds are extensively used,
but counterfeits so made are inferior
to those made with a die.
The die-made counterfeits, accord
ing to Dickerman's United States
Counterfeit Detector, have a fine ap
pearance, lettering and milling being
sharp and clear and the ring usually
good, in sosae instances almost per
fect facsiBailes of genuine. They are
nasally, a trile short weight, however;
and the edges or reeding not so sharp
and clear as in genuine. Many of
tkeae coins are fall weight.
Various ntetals are used by counter
feiters, principally .plantlnnm, silver,
copper, brass, antiaaony, aluminum,
zinc; type stetal, lead and -their n
nteroas compositions.
the most dancerous counter
witness his torpedo experiments." The
first of these was made on October 15,
1805, upon the brig Dorothea, and it is
described in full in rthis remarkable
pamphlet
Its first illustration represents the
brig being cut literally in two by .the
tremendous explosion which proceed
ed from the torpedo which had been
devised for the experiment
"To convince Mr. Pitt that a vessel
could be destroyed by the explosion
of a torpedo under her bottom," writes
Mr. Fulton, "a strong built Danish
brig, the Dorothea, burthen 200 tons,
was anchored in Walmer road, near
Deal, and within a mile of Walmer
castle, the then residence of Mr. Pitt
Two boats, each with eight men,
commanded by Lieut Robinson, were
put under my direction. I prepared
two empty torpedoes in such a man
ner that each was only from two to
three pounds specifically heavier than
salt water and so suspended them that
they hung 15 feet under water.
"They were then tied one to each
end of a small rope 80 feet long. Thus
arranged and the brig drawing 12
feet of water, the 14th day of October
was spent in practice. Each boat hav
ing a torpedo in the stern, they
started from the shore about a mile
above the brig and rowed down to
ward her; the uniting line of the tor
pedoes being stretched to its full
extent, the two boats were distant
from each other about 70 feet; thus
the- approached in such a manner
that one boat kept the larboard, the
other the starboard side of the brig in
view.
Directing the Torpedoes.
"So long as the connecting line of
the torpedo passed the buoy of the
brig they were thrown into the water
and carried on by the tide until the
connecting line showed the brig's
cable; the tide then drove them un
der her body. The experiment being
repeated several times taught the
men how to act, and proved to my sat
isfaction that when properly placed on
the tide the torpedoes would invaria
bly go under the bottom of the vessel."
Annihilated Ship.
"At 40 minutes past four the boats
rode toward the brig and the torpedoes
were tbown into the water, the tide
carrying them, as before described,
under the bottom cf the brig, where,
at the expiration of 18 minutes, the
explosion appeared to raise her bodily
about six feet She separated in the
middle, and the two ends went down.
"In 20 seconds nothing was to be
seen of her, except floating fragments;
the pumps and foremast were blown
out of her, the fore-topsail yard was
thrown up to the cross trees, the four
chain plates with their boats were
torn from her sides, the mizzen chain
plates and shrouds, being stronger
than those of the foremast, or the
shelf being more forward than aft,
the mizzen mast was broken off in
two places; these discoveries were
made by means of the pieces which
were found afloat."
This is the history of the first really
successful torpedo experiment. De
spite the researches which had been
made in earlier centuries, few of the
naval experts of that day believed that
powder could explode under
water. ,
The idea that the shock of such an ex
plosion under the bottom of a vessel
would have any effect upon it was
looked upon as wild and chimerical.

feits of gold coin are those of a com
position of gold, silver and copper.
They are a low grade gold, and. the
acid test shows they lack the fineness
of standard gold used by the United
States mint, which is 900 fine, or 21.19
carats. "These counterfeits average
from 400 to 800 fine. Platinum coun
terfeits are dangerous, as the metal
used gives required weight, and they
are heavily gold-plated.
The most dangerous counterfeit of
silver coin is made of a composition
of antimony and lead, the former
metal predominating. These counter

predicted with remarkable accuracy
the growth of population. His figures
could not of course take into account
the development of railways, the exist
ence of which he could not foretell,
nor of the acquisition of thousands
of square miles of additional terri
tory. "The United States," he writes, "Is
doubling; her population in 25 years,
or, with probable correctness, say 30
years."
His table of estimates is as follows:
1830, 10,429,602; 1860. 20,850,204; 1890,
40,718,408; 1920, 81,436,816.
It happens, owing to exceptional
growth, that the population is, now as
much as it should be 12 years from
now.
He quotes from Arnauld to show
that in 1790 England was the great
naval power and that France and
Spain were holding their own. He
quotes the increasing cost of arma
ments in Europe as an argument for
devising some means of destroying
them and thus promoting peace.
"I will also show," he continues,
"the increasing resources which, if
science does not check it will enable
England hereafter to support a marine
of 1,500 armored ships with as much
ease she now does the 760."
In consequence of the invention of
gunpowder. Mr. Fulton declared that
ships of war had increased to their
enormous size. He concludes by say
ing that not until science shall point
out the way to destroy ships of war
will it give to the seas the liberty
which shall obtain perpetual peace be
tween nations separated by the ocean.
Use of Torpedoes Defended.
"In numerous discussions," con
cludes Mr. Fulton, "which I have had
on this subject and its consequences,
instead of giving liberty to the seas,
its tendency would be to encourage
piracy and buccaneering, by enabling
a few men in a boat to intimidate and
plunder merchant vessels, thereby
producing greater evil than the exist
ing military marines.'
"This idea is similar to the one
which might have arisen on the Inven
tion of muskets, which, giving to an
individual the power of certain death
at a distance of 50 or 100 yards, rob
bers might infest the highways, and
from ambush shoot the traveler, and
take his money. Yet there is not so
much robbery now as before the in
vention of gunpowder. Society is
more civilized. All civilized society
will in its own interest combine
against the robber, who has no chance
of escape.
"But men without reflecting, or from
attachment to established and familiar
tyranny, exclaim that it is barbarous
to blow up a ship with all her crew.
This I admit, and lament that it
should be necessary; but all wars are
barbarous, and particularly wars of of
fense. It is barbarous for a ship of
war to fire into a merchant vessel,
kill part of her people, take her and
the property and reduce the proprie
tor from affluence to penury.
"It was barbarous to bombard Co
penhagen, set fire to the city and
destroy innocent women and children.
It would be barbarous for ships of
war to enter the harbor of New York,
fire on the city, destroy property and
murder many of the peaceable inhab
itants, yet we have great reason to
expect such a scene of barbarism and
distress unless means are taken to
prevent it Therefore, if torpedoes
should prevent such acts of violence,
the invention must be humane."

Our life Is but a soap bubble hang

No cheap premiums are given
with DEFIANCE STARCH.
but YOU GET ONE-THIRD MORE
for tour monet than of ny
other brand.
DEFIANCE STARCH costs
10c for a 16-otf. package, and I
will refund your money if it
sticks to the iron.
Truly yours.
Honest John,
