MORNING AND NIGHT.
A little space of pleasure—
A little space of pain,
And then the solemn darkness,
And then—the light again !
A little song and story
In sunlight and in rain ;
A little gleam of glory
And then—the-dark again !
And so it goes: The darkness,
And then the gleam of light ;
And so, life is good morning,
With sad thoughts of good night!
—Frank L. Stanton in Atlantic Constitution.
On An Oil Ship.
Voyage on a “Tanker” That Carried Kerosene in
Every Available Space Except the Boiler Room.
The recent destruction of a British ship
carrying oil from New York to London
may lead the readers of the newspapers to
think that the ship which carries such an
inflammable cargo is in constant danger of
destruction by fire. But under the pru-
dent construction followed in building the
vessels designed for such commerce it is
doubtful if a safer ship floats than one that
is in the oil trade, if ordinary precautions
are followed. It was my fate one day to
be in Batum, the greatest oil exporting
port of Russia, where tank ships load for
all of Europeand Asia, and although I was
eager to get away as quickly as possible for
Constantinople not a vessel was scheduled
to sail in the passenger trade for a week.
The American consul there suggested
that arrangements might be made to go
down the Black Sea on a tank steamer, and
on hunting up the agency the deal was
concluded. Theship was lying half a mile
out in the roads, and in the midst of as
nasty a rain as ever fell in that region of
fitful weather I took passage in an open
boat and was rowed out to the suceoring
craft. She was not very attractive as I
clambored up over the side and met half a
dozen of the Chinese crew, but presently
an English officer appeared, and being in-
formed of the object of the visit he proved
a very clever fellow. For a couple of
hours the ship lay in the roads, and then
as the skipper came aboard he gave orders
to sail, and we were off. It transpired
that I was his guest, aud he gave me his
cabin, immediately over a great iron tank,
which framed in the vessel from the hold
to the decks, was capable of containing
thousands of gallons of oil. The crew,
with the exception of the skipper and his
officers, were Chinese, Cingalese and others
of the Oriental races. But they proved
most excellent sailors and the Chinese
steward could not be surpassed, even
though he concocted the most novel dishes,
and persisted in bringing me a breakfast to
the cabin hefore I was out of the berth.
One of the first things to attract my at-
tention was that although the weather was
raw enough for a fire there was on the
vessel no provision for such a comfort. In
«curiosity I asked the skipper why he had
m0 heat in the cabin. He was an Euglish-
mau, and in his shrewdness, I could see
some of the traits that the Yankee has in-
herited in the past from the mother race.
“Do you remember what we carry on this
ship?’ lie asked in return to my question.
Now I had not forgotten for a minute that
in the depths of the "vessel there was a
lake of some 25 feet of refined oil, and
when he coupled fhat with no fire the feel-
ing that came was not one of comfort.
“You see, we have a steam heating ar-
‘rangement, but we were delayed in Batum
0 long. that we are a little short of coal,
and we are going down to Constant on as
dittle fuel as possible, so I have not turned
the steam on. We have no fire on this
ship except forward of the water bulk
heads. You see here near the cabin door
is a big separating bulk-head. This is full
of water all the time. Beyond that is the
hoiler room, and on this side are the tanks.
Would you like to go down and see them ?”’
We went below. One tank, for some
reason, was not filled. We went in. It
was as big as a wareroom, whitewashed,
and as clean and neat as a parlor. The
other tanks were full, and they were cov-
ered tightly to prevent the escape of the
gases constantly rising. An ingenious con-
trivance provided for the expansion of the
cargo in the tanks, so that when the region
of tropical weather should be reached no
harm would come to either cargo or vessel
by the generation of gases in a confined
area. Enormous pumps were handy to
pump the cargo of oil into the hig tanks,
of which the ship had several, and also to
pump out the oil when the voyage had
been finished and the ship was ready to
discharge. The tanks really constituted
the ship. Inside the hull they stood, their
tops reaching to the top of the vessel, and
the decks practically being the covering of
the tanks. Into the big compartments re-
fined oil was pumped at the loading sta-
tions at Batum. The cargo was closed off
from the only fire on board, and a compart-
ment a couple of feet in width reaching
across the end of the vessel between the
boilers and the oil tanks was kept con-
stantly full of water that it might not heat
and endanger the inflammable oil. And
there you are. With the oil shut up out
of the way of danger, and no fire in any
part of the ship except that in which the
boilers make the steam, and which is shut
off from the oil, the danger on a tanker is
less than in many merchant vessels carry-
ing such dangerous goods as cotton. To
protect the tanks from the fierce rays of
the hot suns of the tropics a canvas cover-
ing is provided. In the hot days this is
stretched from one side to the other of the
vessel, and from end to end.
Theoretically, the thing looked safe. Yet
the first night aboard I could not help but
wonder what would become of us if by any
chance fire should be communicated to
that vast bulk of oil turned loose in the
big tanks, and which I could hear swash
about in its confinement as the ship rode a
wave or settled in a trough of the sea.
Then as I wandered back and forth over
the tanks the next day from the chart
house where I watched the navigator sail
the ship to the smoke stacks of the boilers, |
where in the leeward side of the big funnels
I sought warmth, the danger appeared less
threatening and the construction of the
ship and its dangerous cargo became more
interesting. But at that I had not learned
all the fine points about the tanker, that
creation of the oil man, for as I talked with
vhe skipper one afternoon I suggested that
it was a pity that he had no cargo to bring
hack with him on his return journey, for
his voyage was one which was taking him
o the Indian ocean, and perhaps up the
‘ninese coast.
‘No pity at all,” he informed me.
When we get to port we unload our oil.
hen we get in with the hose and hot wa-
ter and we wash down the insides of the
tanks and scrub them out until they are as
clean as a kettle. When that is done to
take away the odor we touch them up with
a bit of white paint and let them air and
dry, and when we are done we have the
decentest cargo carriers in the world. It
is as clean as a new pin, free from all ver-
min and from anything objectionable.
What do you suppose I will bring back in
these tanks when I sail westward? Why
tea, silks, maybe raw sugar, and things of
that kind that would be spoiled by any-
thing but the best of handling and the best
of quarters on a good, clean ship. You
could eat and sleep and live in one of these
tanks when it is cleaned out, and never
find the least thing to offend. Iron does
not hold the odor of oil very long after it
is exposed to the air.”
The tar who has sailed very long on a
tank ship would not entertain the idea of
shifting to one of the ordinary cargo ships.
He feels as safe on his tank vessel as he
would anywhere, and he knows when he
gets to the end of his voyage that he will
discharge his cargo with the least effort on
the part of himself and his crew, and that
his goods in transit require no attention
and handling beyond careful watching and
watching is a perpetual duty of the navi-
gator, no matter if his ship is empty. Men
+r who have traveled on the tankers like that
style of passage, and the Englishmen at
Batum frequent'y make the voyage all the
way home to London when a tanker is go-
ing out in preference to the faster passen-
ger steamer to Constantinople and the rail-
road from there to the English channel.
After four days on the oil carrier I per-
ceived that it was about as agreeable a
berth as any I found in that far-away
country, particularly as the officers spoke
the English language and I had some one
to talk to. Brox H. BUTLER.
Over One Hundred Men Digging it In York for the
Chinese Market.
Over one hundred men have been em-
ployed the past two weeks in the town
of Thompson, Sullivan county, in
digging ginseng roots, mostly for the
Chinese market. It is highly valued
in China for its medicinal properties
in combatting fatigue and old age, and
can only be gathered in that country
by permission of the Emperor. The Cana-
dian Jesuits first began to ship the root to
China and sold it for $5 a pound.
The men who are searching for ginseng
iv Sullivan county walk from 15 to 25
miles a day in their rambles through the
brush and trees and carn from $1 to $4 a
day. It takes three pounds of the green
roots to make one pound of the dry pro-
duct, the latter bringing $4 a pound, the
highest price quoted this fall being $4.55.
A fair day’s find of green root is two
pounds.
The root is becoming scarcer every year.
It is of slow growth, taking two years to
form a leaf and eight or ten to make the
root of value. The age of the root is de-
termined hy a little notch or ring added
each year tothe plant. Last vear a root
was found that was 25 or 27 years old, its
age being determined by the rings, and it
made a very profitable day’s work to the
finder. The diggers leave a piece of the
root in the ground to grow, and plant the
seed, which is inclosed in a pale red pod.
A Natural Fog-horn,
At the Farallones the erosive agents have
worked with queer caprice. This rock be-
ing granite, has been acted upon by the sea
at all levels, and throughout the long per-
iod when it has been rising out of the wa-
tery depths. Through a long narrow hole,
slanting, and communicating with the
ocean, there comes at intervals a terrific
stream of air, forced by the spasmodic heav-
ing of the waves against the lower orifice.
The government. which uses this island for
light-house purposes, enclosed the upper
end with the nozzle of a fog-horn, and
every few seconds there was blown an ear-
splitting brawl, which was heard far out at
sea and above the din of the breaking rol-
lers. It was allowed to roar only in foggy
weather, but it was eccentric in that it
would only sound at high tide. When the
tide was low, although the weather might
be very thick, the thing was silent. For
lack of its warning a ship went ashore up-
on the island rocks, and then it was that
the government abandoned its location on
the wind hole and erected a steam-siren, or
mechanical fog-horn, which has since very
faithfully performed the necessary service.

ROBBED THE GRAVE—A startling inci-
dent, of which Mr. John Oliver, of Phila-
delphia was the subject, is narrated by
him as follows : *‘I was in a dreadful con-
dition. My skin was almost yellow, eyes
sunken, tongue coated, pain continually in
hack and sides, no appetite—gradually
growing weaker day by day. Three phy-
gicians had given me up. Fortunately a
friend advised trying ‘Electric Bitters 5
and tomy great joy and surprise, the first
bottle made a decided improvement. I
continued their use for three weeks, and
am now a well man. TI know they saved
my life and robbed the grave of “another
victim.’” No one should fail to try them.

Hov A WOUND HEALS.
Elder A. S. Shoemaker has been a life-long
resident of Ashley, Ohio, and is favorably known
by a wide circle of friends in this part of the
state. For many years he was a prominent
Baptist minister. He has been Mayor of Ashley
for three successive terms, filling the position
with dignity and honor, and has held other offices
of trast.
‘He is sixty-six years of age, hale and hearty,
and attributes his present healthful condition en-
tirely to the use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for
Pale People.
“For about twenty-five years,” he says “I was
afflicted with rheumatism and was constantly in
pain. I could not remain in one position for but
a few moments at a time and could sleep but little
at night. I was dragging out a miserable ex-
istence. Especially in damp, lowery weather I
would be very miserable. I frequently remarked
that I was a traveling barometer, as I could al-
ways tell when a change in the weather was com-
ing. TItried a great many remedies that were
recommended, but they did not help me.
“One day while at work and complaining of my
pain in the presence of Mr. Elias Bishop, a neigh-
bor, he asked me if [ had ever tried Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills for Pale People ; I told him no. I had
never heard of them He advised me to try
them, saying they had benefited him and might
help me.” TIreplied, that I had no faith in any
medicine as I had tried so many different reme-
dies without receiving any benefit that I did not
think.it worth while to throw away more money.
“Time passed on for nearly a year until one
night I was suffering intense pain and I thought
of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People and

concluded to try them. In the morning I went to
the drug store and purchased a box of the pills
and commenced using them according to direc-
tions.
“It was the wisest thing I ever did. On the
third night after commencing their use I went to
bed and slept all night without a particle of pain.
I continued taking the pills until 1 used five
boxes and have not felt any symptoms of my old
troubles since that time, now two years ago.
“Just after I stopped the use of the pills I met
with an accident. In chopping wood TI cut my
foot very badly, the axe going clear through the
instep of my foot. It was thought the wound
would be very hard to heal for a man of my age,
but to the surprise of everybody it healed quickly
without any difficulty. I attribute this also to
the good condition of my blood through the use
of the pills.”
In rheumatism the blood has an acid impurity
which irritates the sensitive tissues that unite
the joints and cover the muscles, thus causing
those indescribable tortures which rheumatic
sufferers endure. Rheumatism is always danger-
ous as it is liable to attack the heart.
Years ago those afflicted were bled ; as if (aking
away some of the impure blood could remedy the
balance. This folly has been abandoned, and to-
day physicians prescribe and druggists recom-
mend the use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale
People, as these marvelous vegetable pills go
directly to the seat of the trouble exerting a
powerful influence in purifying and enriching
the blood by eliminating poisonous elements and
renewing health-giving forces, thus making a
potent remedy for curing this disease.
