SHIPS' MASCOTS LOSE NERVE
Pet Animals on British Vessels Show
the White Feather When Shell*
Begin Exploding.
There ur? auum* lueldents hImmk the
mascots In tin1 big naval battle of Jut
innd which are worth repeating.* The
mascot on the Tiger was a bulldog. a
flno fellow. When getting Into tin* hat
tie the crew were a hit concerned as
to how their fftvoflte would tuko the
crashing of high explosives on the
ship, ho they plugged his earn with cot
ton wool, wrapped his head around as
if he had a heavy dose of toothache*
and a couple of men took the bulldog,
much to hln annoyance, to a room that
Was thought to he as quiet an the ship
could provide. The dog didn't quite
fancy being treated as an Invalid and
resented the coddling, hut when the
allots began ho took It pretty badly
and wan uiighty glad he had a pal sit
ting on either aide holding him by the
paws.
Another boat had a tine, big black
cat. He was overlooked when they got
Into action, and the first shell that
came aboard this fellow got loose and
took a tlylng dive overboard. A* the
boat was going about 27 knots, even
the most tender-hearted Jack Tar
could hardly risk going after Tommy.
l>n another ship they had a little ban
tam. which strutted about more proud
ly than the dinki*>st midshipman ami
with as big a show of courage as the
hardiest of old scadogs. The tars
were proud of the 'Viwank" their pet
could assume before strangers. When
the llrst German .shell crashed 011
board the bantam lost all his fine show
and flew down one of the ventilators.
When he was rescued and photo

MUSIC NEED OF FIGHTING MEN
Blare of Band Instruments Brings
Cheer to Troops and Is Just as
Necessary as Ammunition.
"The blnre of the trombone, the
shrill note of the piccolo and the
drums blending with other band in
struments lju a military organization
give cheer to the men with the gunn
and is Just as necessary as ammuni
tion," says Charles II. Parsons of New
York. "During the Spanish-American
war the tunes happily accepted were
those of the vaudeville stage, when
'There'll lie a Hot Time in the Old
Town Tonight' was said to have led
troops to the capture of San Juan hill.
The old Civil war melodies having the
swing of inarch cadence were first of
all. 'Dixie,' probably wed, at least
hummingly. by tin? soldiers of the
X<?rth, as those who followed the
'Stars and Bars.' And it Is worth while
tn !I that 'Dixie' was the tnost

in camp and sung in a?Mii?n of all the

Wou'd Use Water for Fuel.
Recently ail inventor attracted con*
: si<|eralile attention by claiming to have
I Isolated a certain green chemical the
I addition of which t?? water would make
the water a substitute for gasoline in
initial-combiiMion engines. Now comes
another inventor with a process for
utilizing water as an automobile fuel.
He points to tlw well-known fact that
water is decomposed into Its elements,
hydrogen and oxygen, when a current
of electricity passes through it. Hy
drogen mixed with air is more explo
sive than gasoline vapor. In his pat
ented ?evice the Inventor would con
vert part of the power generated by
the automobile engine into electrical
energy, which he would use to decom
pose water. The hydrogen of the de
composed water he proposes to use to
run the engine, securing enough stir
plus power in the cycle to drive the
car.
Knows When to Quit.
Handled intelligently, a mule Is a j
most willing worker; but there are a |
few unwritten laws that cannot be j
transgressed with impunity. A mule ;
will seldom make more than two at- '
tempts to move a load. On the first J
strain he will throw his whole force J
Into the collar, and a mule can pull 50 ;
per cent more in relntlon to hi* weight i
than a horse. Science is again dumb j
at the question whence comes that lat- t
ent force which neither horse nor ass 1
possesses. After a short rest the mule j
will make a second attempt, but this j
is seldom as sustaiped as the first. If i
the load still refuses to move the team 1
mfght as well be unhitched. At times
the mules will not even exert enough
force on a third attempt to move an 1
empty wagon.
Yielding to Necessity.
There is. as Clenthes pointed out,
such a thing as a "noble yielding to j
necessity," which is accounted divine, i
A man must, of course, be convinced
that what he yields to is in truth ne
cessity. Hut when that Is clear there '
should be no repining, and no fear of
what "others may say." Until It is
clear there should be no yielding. The !
poet, who was sad because lie could
not paint a picture, and the painter
who mourned because he could not
write a poem, were surely most unrea
sonable. They clearly knew nothing i
of the doctrine of diversity of gifts. \
The doctrine is not only true but In I
the highest degree, consoling and
cheering.?Kxchange.
