UNIQUE WEAPONS OF WAR
Wooden Cannon Have Been Used
With Success in Modern Times by
West Indian Revolutionists
Anyone familiar with the construc-
tion of modern weapons ot warfare
and the high explosives used in them
would naturally suppose a cannon
made of wood would be of little or ao
j value as a weapon
i Wooden cannons have been used
with considerable success neverthe-
less in recent revolutions in Cuba
Haiti and in the Dominican republic
The wood used in the construction
of these crude weapons is a very
tough variety haying a twisted grain
that curls about the log iu such a way
i that to split the timber with the or-
dinary means is almost impossible
The best trees are selected and a
piece of the log five or six feet in
length and about one foot in diameter
is cut After tile bark- has been re-
moved and the log made round it is
swung up on a crude trass and a hole
is burned into it from one end The
log is wound with strips of rawhide
cut from the skin of a steer When
the cannon is covered with the strips
of hide another layer is wound on
! and this is continued until the weapon
j lias increased several inches in diam-
eter
After the log is covered and the
jiore is finished I lie weapon is treated
to a hot draft which tends to con-
tract the hide binding and which be-
comes almost as strong as wire
These crude cannons have been
Used with success in a number of in-
stances and it is astonishing the num-

friends in the West He has followed

progress He has hoard how the town
he helped to establish has risen from
a shack to a growing thriving brisk
business center with the surrounding
country peopled now by thousands
who are occupying the territory In
which he was one- of the first to help
plant the colony of twenty or twenty-
five In his letter to an official of the
Department of the Interior he says:

Woman’s Beauty is
Based on Health
To Have Health Dowel
Movement is Absolutely
Necessary— How Best
to Obtain it
If woman's beauty depended upon
cosmetics every woman would be a
picture of loveliness But beauty lies
deeper than that It lies In health
In the majority of cases the basis of
health and the cause of sickness can
be traced to the action of the bowels
The headaches the lassitude the
sallow skin and the lusterless eyes are
usually due to constipation So many
things that women do habitually con-
duce to this trouble They do not
eat carefully they eat Indigestible
foods because the foods are served
daintily and they do not exercise
enough But whatever the particular
cause may be it Is Important that the
condition should be corrected
An Ideal remedy for women and one
especially suited to their delicate re-
quirements Is Dr Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin which thousands of women en-
dorse highly Mrs Jennie Snedeker
1041 West Monroe St Chicago testi-
fies that she Is "cured of grave stom-
ach and bowel troubles by using Syrup
Pepsin and without the aid of a doc-
tor or any other medicine” All the
family can use Syrup Pepsin for thou-
sands of mothers give It to babies and
children It Is also admirably Bulled
to the requirements af elderly people
in fact to all who by reason of age or
Infirmity cannot stand harsh salts ca-
thartics pills or purgatives These
should always be avoided for at beBt
their effect is only for that day while
