IBERTSON - URDERZAKER | AY. JANUARY 4, 1916 TRAPPED IN A STOKEHOLE. The Fate That Firemen on a Warship Ave Liable to Meet. The soldiers who fight with least rec- ognition in the battles at sea are the stokers of the destroyers running at full speed. Eight men work under the command of a stoker petty officer in a space 8o narrow that movement of any kind seems impossible. There is a fur- nace in front and one in the back. Sandwiched in between is a maze of levers, pipes, pumps and gear. Yet within these close quarters the stokers find space to perform their heartbreaking toil in an atmosphere al- most too hot to breathe, says the Pop- ular Science Monthly. When the men are at their posts the iron hatch is closed down, and the air sucked in through a ventilator has to pass through the furnace before it gets to them. So long as the pumps work well and the evaporated water is displaced with automatic regularity by fresh neither the tubes nor the boiler casting can get dangerously hot. But sometimes without apparent cause the water slow- ly descends below the level.

THE ODOR OF SPICES. Often Used by Writers to S8timulate Their Imagination. On some portions of the globe spices are worth more than gold or silver. “In the arctic region spices are es- sential to health and happiness,” writes an explorer. “A dash of pepper, a pinch of ground cinnamon, a little nut- meg or a pinch of ginger root revives the jaded appetite wonderfully in the ALVORD & ALVORD north.
