Since the secretary of the navy has decided to strengthen the Asiatie station, and inasmuch as a squadron maay be organized for service in Chi- nese and Japanese waters, it has be- come evident that the United States should have a station in China. There is already a coaling station in Japan. The one in Manila has a capacity of 39,000 tons, that at Guam 5,000 tons, and the one at Honolulu 20,000 tons, The proposed voaling station at Che Foo will afford a convenient coaling point for vessels in northern Chinese waters, By the time Rear Admiral Bradford has completed his plans the Pacific will be plentifully dotted with ebaling stations, so that no warship will have to make an extremely long trip to get fuel. The matter of the selection of coal- ing stations on the isthmus of Panama is held in abeyance pending the as- sumption of more definite s re to the canal negotiations now being pushed by the departments of state and jus- tice. Admiral Bradford is preparing plans for a coaling station to be estal» lished at San Diego, Cal, one of the most important strategic points on the Pacific coast. It will have a capac- ity of 36,000 tons, although only about half that much.will be kept there. As soon as the attorney general decides that the government is the owner of Mission island in San Francisco bay— and he is confidently expected to make a decision to that effect—Rear Ad- miral Bradford will order the building of a sea wall and the equipping of a coal station with a capacity of 100,000 tons, Warships will then be able to coal with sufficlent fuel to last all the way to the Philippines.

The experiments conducted by the United States coast and geodetic survey at the Marconi station at Sagaponack on the south shore of Long Island are still under way, but so delicate are they and so infinite the calculations that it will be some time before they are completed and a detailed report made to the gov- ernment. The feasibility of utilizing wireless whose young wife ng argu. n. is being Congress May Be Asked to Pass Act Compelling Naval Officers to Perform Active Duty, | Naval officers of the line have sug- gested to Secretary Moody that he recommend to congress the passage of a law providing that naval oflicers should spend a minimum length of time at sea before they are promot- ed. Mr. Moody has the subject under serious consideration, and inasmuch as it offers an opportunity to get rid of the obnoxious social pull which some officers use to avoid sea duty, he is inclined to regard it favorably, As diseussed now, the law would stipulate that each officer should spend a certain time at sea during his incumbeney of each grade. Junior officers would doubtless have to serve much longér at sea than ofticers of command rank. Secretary Moody called upon Capt. Sigsbee, of the office of naval intel- lige for information as to the policy followed by other nations in thTs direction. He was informed that the United States was about the only great naval power which did not have a law providing that naval officers should perform a certain amount of sea service each year. In Great Brit- ain the law is sometimes worked arbitrarily. If it is seen that an of- ficer will never amount to much he is not assigned to sea service, thus losing his chance of promotion. Strenuous Opposition Being Raised to the Bill Proposing a Reduc- : tion of the Term, More than passing interest has been created at Paris over the bill reducing compulsory military service from three years to two. One of the most vigorous opponents of the measure is the veteran Marquis de Gaftifet. He says that the proposal terrified even so bold a minister as M. Waldeck-Rouse seau. Atall events, so important a step ought not to be taken withont careful experiment. In the first place 60,000 or 70,000 well-trained noncommis- sioned officers and privates ought to be reenlisted annually “for several years while the short-period idea is being tried, before any bill is adopted definitely. The marquis holds that it would be impossible to animate troops with the true military spirit in so short a time 4s two years. M. De Goulaine and other speakers also insisted that any moral training of the soldier would be impossible un- der the two-year system, and that it was the old armies which had accom- plished the most heroic exploits. M. Mezieres pointed out that Germany, which has a glut of men, was careful not to reduce the term of service until the permantnt element of her army had been strengthened immensely by the reenlistment of a very large num- ber of noncommissioned officers and men. Others advocated the establish- ment of a substantial nucleus of five: year men. Go to Sea in Small Craft, In a 38-foot launch, christened A. A. Low, after the mayor’s father, and ac- companied only by his 16-year-old son, Capt. Henry Newman, a well known New England boatman, has sailed from New York for Falmouth, Eng- land. So daring is the trip regarded by nautical men that officers from the navy yard, from which the launch started, declared they would rather take their chances in a godd sea fight than aboard of her on the broad At- A Don's Bravery.

These atmospheric poisons are breathed into the lungs and taken up by the blood, and the foundation of some long, debilitating illness is laid. Chills and fever, chronic dyspepsia, torpid and enlarged liver, kidney troubles, jaundice and biliousness are frequently due to that invisible foe, Malaria. Noxious gases and unhealthy matter collect in the system because the liver and kidneys fail to act, and are poured into the blood current until it becomes so polluted and sluggish that the poisons literally break through the skin, and carbuncles, boils, abscesses, ulcers and various eruptions of an indolent character appear, depleting the system, and threatening life itself. The germs and poisons that so oppress and weaken the body and destroy the life-giving properties of the blood, rendering it thin and watery, must be overcome and carried out of the system before the patient can hope to get rid of Malaria and its effects.
