The White Flag.
It is r great temptation to command. 1
ers iu wartime to use tln> white flag as
a trick to obtain bmuhlug space when
harvl pressed by the enemy, and this is
often done, although it is against the
laws of war.
The old purpose of the white flag is
to notify the enemy that their oppo
nents wish to parley, and a commander
has a perfect right to refuse such a
request if he deems it necessary. Even
if he consents he can request that the
bearer of the flag of truce be blind
folded so that he may not secure in- j
formation concerning the camp which
be enters. In no circumstances must
the -white flag be shown to trick nn
! opposing side Into relaxing their at
tack. so that a retreat may be prepared
or re-enforcements brought up for a
fresh attack, in this connection a
common ruse is for a harassed com
mander to request his enemy for an
armistice apparently for the purpose
of burying his dead- He then takes
advantage of the truce by retreating :
Titb his troops under the cover of
darkness.—London Tit-Bits.
Floating Docks.
A Booting dock may be likened to a
-ox with neither ends nor lid. It is
built of steel throughout, the largest
type having a length of OSO feet and a
width of 144 feet, while the walls are
100 feet in height. The dock is first
submerged by admitting water Into !
! the ballast tanks or pontoons forming i
i the base of the structure. When it
has been sunk to a sufficient depth to
receive the vessel the latter is warped
into its correct position on the keel
blocks of the dock and Is then made
fast. Powerful pumps are set to work
to eject water from the pontoons, caus
ing the structure to rise gradually with ,
its burden. To lift a battleship of the
largest size 46.000 tons of water has to
be pumped out of the pontoons. So
perfectly, however, are these Boating
docks constructed that one man can
control every movement from wbat is !
known as the valve house.—London
Tit-Bits.

Cynical.
When we hear a man say that he
should rather have a c>oar conscience 1

Investigating His Credit.
“Say. Brooks, can I borrow a little
tnr-ney from you until next pay day?" j
"Why-er-yes. 1 suppose so. How
much do you want?"
"None at all. dear boy. 1 only want
ed to satisfy myse'f that my credi [
was -rood."—London Standard.
