Years ago I became very ill, Iwas attacked ___

with a distressing pain in my stomach,

The Belleisle is now in dock at Ports-

mouth, writes a. correspondent to the Lon- don Times, and as the dock has been emptied an appreciation of the injury in- flicted can be by eye approximately meas- ured. The number of small projectiles that struck the vessel in some part or other is very great, and must bear a large proportion to the total number fired, but they arc scattered from the head of the foremast to the stern on the water-line. It seems difficult to trace more than half ia. dozen 12-inch shots as having been terribly Idestructive. Perhaps two of them showing clean-cut holes, one aft, , and another, dead amidships. thatpierced ‘ the hull a couple of feet below the water- line, wrecking the engines and sinking V the vessel, would have caused the great- est damage to an enemy. One more cut the spindle of the capstan, and the cap- stan itself was hurled away. The clear cutround hole in the citadel, where the shell forced its passage, forming an ori- fice not much larger in diameter than it- self, must have annihilated the guns’ crews where it burst with murdeous ef- fect. The most damaging shell in the after part of the vessel entered some- what in the same way, but in its passage avoided theprincipal armament. The un- der-water blow caused rain, and the ship- wrights had extreme difficult in stopping the ingress of water sumcently to enable the vessel to be transported. One 12 inch shell, a. gallery shot, caught the up- per corner of the citadel on the port af- ter angle, and, checked by the massive- ness of the target, exploded, blowing oil' the roof and wrecking the p1atform-on which the conning-tower stands. The other pnojectiles which struck did wreck- , ingbut not insuperable, damage. .The I port side of the Beiiirie is plastered T with the number of Ginch projectilcs, all ` of which seemed to have exploded occur- V ately, but, as the ironwork of the citadel is of no greater resisting power than that of frinch hardened steel, now frequently employed to cover the gun emplacments of several modern cruisers, it is clear from these experiments that " armour- piercing projectiles must be supplied to to our ships for their 6-inch guns, irre- spective ofthe cost of the shells. I Pro- _jectiles of this descripition can undoubt- edly be made, and the percentage of miss- es will be considerable at the distance, probably 4,000 yards, at which naval en- gagements of thefuture will be initiated. A vast amount of ammunition will be re- quired; in t-his respect, at the present _ moment, our vessels compare favorably with those of other nations, but endeavors should bemade to provide much larger supplies of ammunition than a.re now fur-

nished to each fighting ship.

The small guns, from the volumn and rapidity of their fire, gained the target in great numbers, but with the varying success that might have been expected. An element hitherto inadequatelyfore- seen by our gunnery experts militated against extreme accuraey. The dense masses of mingled steam and smoke, aris- ing from the engines’ blow-off and from the gaseous productions of the exploding shells, hid the hull from the flrers, but the masts, badly wounded, yet still stand- ing, showed clearly the -position of the ship, and perhaps their attidude, pee ing over the smoke, tempted a somewhat high delivery of fire. Several shots pass- ed over the hull, many struck the masts high, and the boom boat stowed loftily above the deck,_was mauled past recogni- tion, but not ignited. In fact, there is no appearance of general igniting of wood- work throughout the vessel, and, pace the Little Endians, rivets from their metal might form splinters as dangerous as wood. The after-deck wasbarely scorched, and the foredeck was blown off by heavy s`_1e1ls bursting underneath. The rudder and propellers are, apparently uninjured, the rigging is cut, but the nhists stood, and, had there been fighting tops, they to all appearance would have remained valid tothe end. The most interesting study throughout the whole experiment was the actiono lyddite. The 12-inch shells, such of them, if any, as were charged, with lyddite after penetration, causing wreck- age. At least half a dozen 6-inch shells, which were so loaded, failed to penetrate, and the radiating stars caused by their contents smothered the side of the Bell- isle. The upward action of their burters sheered off or seriously damaged the guns of the light armament placed high in the vessel and undoubtedly disabled them. It seems probable that some slight recess- ing of their prominent position would have so far conduced to their efficiency. The repeated blows of (iinch projectiles on or about the water-line belt, although

Freezing Weather in July.

Would cause great discomfort and loss,

but fortunately it is seldom known. A vast amount of misery is caused at this season, however, byimpoverished blood, poor appetite and general debility. Thése conditions may be rendered by enriching the blood and toning the stomach with'Hood’s Sarsaparilla. This medicine seemsto put new life into the whole physicial system, simply because of its wonderful power to purify, enrich and vitalize the blood, create an appetite and invigorate the digestitve functions. We advise you to get a bottle and try if you are not feeling just right. It would i do you more good than a. six weeks va- ? cation. It is the best medicine money A can buy.
