Famous Sayings of Naval Heroes John Paul Jones, naval hero of tha Revolutionary War, hoisted for his flag thirteen white and red stripes and inscribed under a serpent ready to strike the motto, “Don’t tread on me!” But his most memorable bit of phrasing was his reply to ttie captain of the Sera phis li who, at the end of an hour's conflict, asked him to surrender. “I have not yet begun to fight!'’ retnrted Jones. And events justified Ins assertion, for the Bonhorame Richard (r.amed in compliment to Benjamin Franklin) look the larger vessel. L,at<r, when Jones tas told that (ieorge 111. had knighted tile captain of the Seraphis for las gallant conduct ill tile buttle, JoDcS said: “Never t-iind; if I meet him again I'll m ike an earl of him!" tVi'epi .n 1) eatur'.i diet ruction of the frigate Philadelphia in the harbor of Tripoli was declared i y Lord Nelson to ha: .* been “the holi’est and m* st daring a t of his age." But ii is as an i pit raminutist that he is mentioned hero. Decatur gave the famous toast at a Norfolk uinner: “Our country! In her intercourse witii foreign nations may she always be in the r elit, hut, our country, right or wrong!" When Decatur captured the MacedouiSn her captain, Carden, tendered his sword. The American bowed and r: id with a smile: "1 can't take the sword of a man who lias so bravely defended Ms ship; but I’ll thank you for that hat.” The two officers had met prior to the beginning of hostilities and each man had bet a hat on the fighting qualities of Ids ship. This was in the War of 1M2-15. The Macedonian lost her mizzenmast. Decatur heard a gunner remark “We've made a bfig of her,” and immediately gave the order: •'Atm for Die mainmast, boys, and we ll make her a sloop." Lawrence's dying words, "Don’t give up Hie ship!”—which you may read upon his tomb in Trinity Churchyard —were Hie inspiring shout at the battle of Lake Erie. Perry's victory near Putin-Bay Island was Immortalized by the message written upon a scrap of an old letter this American sent to Washington: ••We have met the enemy and they lire ours." The “they” inventoried "Two ships, two brigs, one schooner and one sloop.” Commodore Hull, aboard the Constitution, in his memorable engagement with the frigate Guerrlere, held bis hre until within a few hundred feet of his enemy, although Old Ironsides was shot almost to pieces; then he literally tore the Uuerrfere to splinters. Hts command amid the roaring of the enemy's guns: ' Now, give her a broadside!" is paralleled by Dewey s calm order, “Grid ley, you may fire when you are ready!"

Meters on Electric Cars. The use of meters on electric cars, states Electrical Industries, has now become the rule rather than the exeeption, and w ithin the next year or two the meter-loss ear v.ill be almost a cur islty. Testimony to the value of the watt-hour meter continues to accumulate a* a most gratifying rate, for three out of every four ears are fitted with meters on the watt-hour principle. The long controversy between tbe two types of meters may therefore be regarded as practically settled by an overwhelming majority. 'Yhy Colds are Dangerous.
