burning fooling that has annoyed him

for several days becoming mum less

and tho movement of thc limb easier

Tho general condition of tho patient

is reported to bo much more favorablo

than for boiiio time. This la due, In i

part, to his removal from IiIb small

bed chamber to more spacious quarters, which, according to tho pontiff himself, gives him tho feeling of being

In tho open air. The walls of the new chamber are 20 feet high. Despite his Illness, his holiness verified the decision of tho conslstorlai concrecatlon. annolntlng Rt. Rev. J.

The Osservatore Romano, tho of

"Contrary to the exaggerated and fantastic news published by certain

Italian and foreign newspapers, we

can assure you that the condition of

the health of his holiness has ameliorated and that the attack of gout

In tho right knee has diminished notably and unquestionably is yielding to treatment. Notwithstanding this, especially because of the excessive heat, his holiness will still need several days of care and treatment"

and dirigibles on their proper courses

The ordinary marine compass Is almost worthless as a means of direction in the air. for the reason that there Is no way In which the aviator can determine the extent of his drift, once he loses sight of the earth. Details of the naval plans for meeting this condition have not been

worked out. but it is ociieveu uiey have to do with the establishment of a vast system of base lines. How these are to be Identified, however, is yet a matter of conjecture.
