The Chinese and Japanese build
most of their vessels of teak. This wood
is very durable, and will stand the water
better than any other wood that js used

Australasian Shipping JVtws, there lies
at the bottom of Dusky bay a lurae ves

water. She lias hi en tliere for cen

abont her. They say that their grand
fathers told them that in their child
hood a large vessel sank in Dusky bay;
' that the crew managed to reach one of
the small islands and after living there
for years died off one by one.. Who they
were or where they came from the

Black birch is pressing its claims to
succeed black walnut as an ornamental
wood. It is much the same color as
cherry, and can be stained so as to look
' like walnut. Where the land is high
and dry the fiber is firm and clear, but
in low. wet soil it is soft and of a bluish
hue. It is already used lararclv for the
' ' perforated chair bottoms. The Toronto
Oinbe says that it is vry abundant in
Ontario. It is so solid, however, that
It does not float after soaking afewda.vs
in' water, and uuless it is so situated as
to be rafted with pine logs it has to be
dragged great distances by horse power.
In consequence of its prospects in su
'. perseding walnut, it is already rising in
, price. Probably, however, says a 'U est
ern paper, its reign will be of short du-
. ration, as the cultivation of black wal
nut is rapidly becoming a regular in
... dustry. It is regarded as one of the
most profitable of crops if one can af
ford to wait.

A ripple prevalent on the surface of
fashionable society is occasioned by the
question whether crinoline is to be or
not to be. American modistes, mer
chants and society leaders are far from
being in accord regarding it, and to-day
the hoopskirt, crinoline, fardingale, or
by whatever name it may bo called,
seems to occupy a position in the do
main of fashion not unlike that assigned
to Mohammed's coffin. Yet the guess
may be ventured that the reappearance
of this article of dress in a modified
form, and shorn of its exaggerated
proportions, is only a question of time,
and that in the near future it will be as
universally worn at it was ten years ago.
History shows that it has held its own
with here and there a lapse of a decade
or two, in spite of the merciless criti
cisms and the jibes and jeers of the
sterner sex, from the days of Elizabeth
down to the era of the displeasing
"tilting" hoop.
The amplitude of crinoline as worn in
this country at that period was a seri
ous objection to its use. It was also
rightly urged that women occupied
more than her proper share of space in
the world, monopolizing all the room
in railroad cars, on the pavement and
in home and social circles, and " help "
in the kitchen made herself in more
senses than one "too big for her place."
The hoopskirt, if made in moderate
proportions, is an accessory of dress
most agreeable to the wearer. Aside
from the question of taste and fashion,
it is promotive of health and comfort,
and relieves women of many grievous
burdens and resulting ills due to the
oppressive weight of the many skirts
usually worn in the absence of crino
line. In England tho hoopskirt ap
pears to be less in vogue than it was
early in the season. . This is no doubt
largely due to the example of the Eng.
lish princesses, who speak of it as "that
hideous invention." Hut despite the
disfavor with which it is regarded in
the royal household and by leaders of
fashion here' ana elsewhere, its rein
statement as an indispensable article of
dress may be confidently predicted.

A Big Meteor.
The fall of a meteor in the bay near
CJoat Island, from the description given
to a Cult reporter by various persons on
the water front, must have been a sight
seldom witnessed by man. Hearing
that an old nslierman had been on tht
bay near where the aerolite fell, the re
porter looked him up and got the follow
ing story: " Yes," said he, " I was near
the place when that meteor fell, and
let me say right here, I don t want to
be there when the next one comes down.
I tell you what, young man, I've been
in a good many close places in Cali
fornia, fighting grizzlies and standing
ou Mexicans m 49, but I never said my
prayers as many times in a second as 1
did when that meteor lit for the
bay this morning. I was going
across the bay to the Oakland flats to
set my nets, as I do most every morn
ing. Well, when I got almost opposite
the island, all of a sudden it got so
light that I thovuht the whole electric
light business had exploded right over
my head. I pulled for the island as
hard as I could, for I always had a holy
horror of making fish-bait of myself.
I had not made two strokes when it got
all-tired hot, and I looked around and
was just in time to see the grandest and
terrioiest sight these old eyes ever
looked upon. Not ten feet from
me the meteor struck the water. It
locked as large as a horse. When it
struck you could have heard the hissing
almost a mile. I never heard anything
like it before. Almost as soon as it
went under my boat was over the spot,
and the water was bubbling and
steaming as though, a young volcano
had broken out." "Do you think
you could find the exact place
where the meteor struck t asked the re
porter. "I don't know. As soon as
daylight came I went back to see how
things looked, and found a number of
dead hb floating around. I think it
was about two hundred yards from the
island, a little east of south. 1 was so
badly scared that I can't say exactly."
" How old are you, and what is your
name ?" I was born in Maine in 1823,
and my name is John Small," answered
tLe lone fisherman. I he reporter called
upon Professor Hinks at the State
mining bureau. The professor was out
of town, but it has been reported by
several parties that the aerolite had been
seen by quite a number of persons.
Professor Davidson was also called
upon, but was out. This is, without
doubt, one of the largest aerolites that
has visited the earth for some time past.

FItESEltVE THE HEALTH.
gnnltnry Prrrnntlon to Prevrnt th
prnttn of Inirciiona IMarnara.
The New York State board of
helth publishes the following memor
andum of sanitary precautions against
the spreading of contagions and infec
tious poison", because most of them can
be " stamped out," and all of th m can
be controlled. These rules are applica
ble to any locality:
Cleanliness and ventilaMon are in all
cases and everywhere of the first im
portance. The diseases which are
spread chiefly from plce to place and
from person to person by means of
their own infection or contagion are to
be regarded and treated as enemies, to
be resisted and stamped out. The propa
gation of some of them with the help
of local causes, seen or unseen, and the
fatality, as well as spread, of each one
of them is increased by personal un
cleanliness and local unhealthfulness.
Diphtheria, measles, scarlet fever, ty
phoid fever.puerperal fever and smallpox
are the most pestilent of these infec
tions diseases in this State. But ty
phoid fever and malignant cholera are
infectious by means of excrements
matters rather than from bodily ema
nations. Typhus spreads by its per
sonal contagion, and it originates among
crowded and uncleanly people. These
diseases and all infections and conta
gions require disinfection and all sani
tary precautions that prevent infection
Smallpox, scarlet fever, diphtheria or
measles. The patient should be kept
in a separate room (preferably on an
upper floor) from which, if possible,
carpets, curtains, stuffed furniture,
clothing and other articles not re
quired for immediate use, should be
removed beforehand; and no person
except the physician, nurse or parent
should be allowed to enter the sick
room, or to touch any of the articles
used therein, until after thorough dis
infection. To disinfect clothing, etc, in the
sick room. Keep in the room a tub
containing a quarter of a pound of sul
phate of zinc and two ounces of com
mon salt to each gallon of water. All
bed linen, towels, clothing, handker
chiefs, etc., used about the patient,
should be allowed to soak in this solu
tion for at least an hour before re
moval from the room, and afterward be
thoroughly boiled, separate from the
rest of the family washing. Never send
such articles to a public laundry.
To disinfect discharges from the
patient. Use the same disinfecting
fluid as in disinfecting clothing, but
three times stronger, or use copperas
water, made by dissolving a pound and
a half of copperas in a gallon of water.
The latter answers for all excremental
discharges, while the former is best for
all articles of clothing and furniture.
All vessels used in the sick room should
be disinfected with one or other of
these disinfecting fluids, unless im
mediately immersed in boiling water.
Disinfect the discharges and clothing
immediately.
Typhoid fever. The poison lies in
the discharges from the bowels, which
should be at once disinfected with the
solution of the zinc-salt or of copperas.
Particular care should be exercised to
prevent any possible contamination of
sources of drinking water with these
discharges. Bed clothing or other arti
cles soiled by the evacuations should be
reated with the solution, and be boiled.
Dysentery and cholera. Adopt the
same regulations as in typhoid fever.
Typhus fever. Enforce free ventila
tion and disinfection of clothing, as
above described. Attend to the fumi
gation of the sick room and its bed
ding. To prevent the body of the patient
from spreading contagion. Iu the erud
tive diseases, especially in scarlet fever,
the patient's body should be annointep
at least twice a day with oil, lard or
vaseline, containing about ten grains of
carbolic acid or of thymol to the ounce.
This process should be maintained un
til the bran-like scaling of the skin is
at an end. The zinc-salt solution should
be used as directed. Before again as
sociating with unprotected persons, the
patient should have several complet
ablutions, including thorough washing
of the hair with soap or borax; and none
of the clothing worn for several days be
fore the disease declared itself should
be again used until thoroughly disin
fected and ventilated in the open air
several days.
Avoid visiting houses where there
are any of these diseases. Occupants of
uch houses should not visit.
Disinfect ion of houses and apartments.
Fumigation with sulphur is the only
practicable method for disinfecting the
house, as well as furniture, bedding,
etc., that cannot be steamed or boiled.
For this purpose the rooms to be disin
fected must be vacated. Close the rooms
rs tightly as possible, place the sulphur
in iron pans supported upon bricks in
wash-tubs containing a little water, set
it on fixe by hot coals, or with the aid
of a spoonful of alcohol, and keep the
room tightly closed twenty-four hours.
For a room of dimensions equal to ten
feet square, or 100 square feet of floor
space, at least two pounds of sulphur
should be used: for larger rooms, pro
portionally increased quantities. After
fumigation, the freest possible ventila
tion should be practiced. All woilen
clothing, silks, furs, stuffed bed-covers,
beds and other articles which cannot t.
treated with zinc solution, should le
hung in the room during fumigaticu.
their surfaces thoroughly exposed, and
their pockets turned inside out. After
ward tbey should be hung in the open
air, beaten and shaken. Pillows, beds,
Btuffed mattresses, upholstered furni
ture, etc., should be ripped open, the
contents spread out and thoroughly fu
migated. Carpets are best fumigated
on the floor, but should afterward be re
moved to the open air and thoroughly
beaten. Many of such articles may be
disinfected in an oven or steam-neated
tank, at a temperature of from 212 de
grees to 250 degrees Fahrenheit, main
tained for five or six hours.
Disinfection of premises, etc. Cel
lars, yards, btables, gutters, privies,
cess-pools, water-closets, drains, sewers.
etc, should be repeatedly and profusely
drenched with copperas solution, wuich
is easily kept ready for use, at full
strength, by hanging a basket contain
ing about sixty pounds of copperas in a
barrel of water, and renewing the sup
ply from time to time.
Corpses should be thoroughly washed
with a zino solution of triple strength:
should then be wrapped in a sheet wet
with this strongest disinfecting solu
tion, and buried as soon as practicable,

cleanliness and fresh air. The deodor
izers, which are much used as disinfect'
ants, are deceptive.

Lady Artists on a Lark In Maine.
Life had quickly settled into regu
larity. Every morning sketch books
and easels, paint boxes and palettes
came out; the girls broke up into groups
of two or three, and started out in vari
ous ways to work. Not a pictnresque
spot but had sketchers encamped about
it; a dilapidated set of bars, the scorn
of cows but the delight of an artist; a
pile of rocks in an orchard, the thorn in
the flesh to a farmer, who stared open
eyed to find it attractive to somebody;
a path thioiigh the woods; or a luxu
riant group of tall ferns. The neighbi r
hood was an unworked mine of wealth.
One could not turn in any direction
without seeing a charming spot that
she longed to carry away with her, and
the only regret of the enthusiastic
8' udents was that each one had not two
pairs of hands to work with. Dinner
brought them all home, and then came
criticism, comparison and much pleasant
talk over canvas and paper, ending in
the Lark's Nest in nailing the studies
to the wall, and making rtady for the
next day's work.
Before long some of the daily needs
of girlish humanity became pressing,
and a party was made up to visit the
" store " of the neighborhood a barn
like place, with drugs and dress goods,
hardware and groceries, all in one room.
"Have you straw hats?" asked the
first girl.
The clerk was sorry, but they wore
out of hats.
"What I no hats?" in a chorus from
the party who had been seized with an
ambition for broad-rim hats.
" I should like some shoe-buttons,"
began the second.
These, alas! they never kept.
"Whatl no shoe-buttons?" in one
breath again.
"Please show me somo ribbons,"
spoke up the third.
The clerk regretted to say that rib
bons were not in stock.
"What! no ribbons?" cried the
ohorni, in dismay.
" Writing paper, if you please," cried
the fourth, sure that she at least could
supply her wants.
The clerk was embarrassed. He began
to have a horror of the chorus, and
hesitated whether he had better slip out
of a back door and let his inquisitors
find out for themselves his stock, or
whether he had better laugh. He de
cided on tho latter just in time, for
i'ergy began:
" I want some rye flour for sunburn."
The man shook his head.
"What! no rye flour?"
Clip had been looking about, and see
ing potatoes, a thought struck her.
say, girls," she began, in eager whis
pers, " now we're out herein the woods,
and no callers, we might eat onions !
"Onions I onions 1 whispered one
and another. ' Delightful 1 so we
will !"
" I love onions !" cried Clip; and,
turning to the amused shop keeper,
added: " Please send us up a bushel.
The man laughed, but again he shook
his head.
"What! do onions? Oh I" and,
thoroughly disgusted with the countrs
store, the party went out in search of
another. Alter that, whenever in their
rambles, which extended for many miles
around, they came near to a store, they
invariably went in and asked for those
articles, expressing their surprise in
chorus as at first, and always ending
with tho demand for onions, which, by
the way, they were never able to get in
that land of farms and gardens, though
Mrs. Duncan offered to send to Portlund
for them. Hcrpnr's Magazine.
Chinese Beds.
There are two kinds of Chinese beds.
and both are arranged for a complete
shutting in by means of banging cur
tains and tapestry. The expensive kind
is like a sort of cage, having a flat
wooden roof, hist the size of the bed
proper, supported at a height of abou
eight feet from the floor on four corner
posts and two intermediate ones. Then
there is a sort of frieze or entablature
work tunning around horizontally
above and below, so that when you are
in bed you are sately penned in a sort
of cage, and cannot possibly tumble
out. The carving on these beds
inietimes very rich, and they cost
much; but the ordiuary und cheaper
kind is made of two frames of wood
shaped something like the skeleton of
an old-fashioned "settle," which are
stood up on the floor, facing each
other. A mattress is placed on tho
projecting part of these frames, and a
couple of slight sucks across tne top
then curtains end hangings shut all in
and make it look as pretty as the taste
and money of the owner are able. In
side there is a cotton quilt, laid on the
mattress frame. The occupant of the
bed lies on this, having a little roll of
stuff for the head, and for covering
very thick cotton quilt.
Money Well Spent.
The urgent necessity of providing
some substitute for the apprentice sjs
tern, which has, in a large measure,
passed away, has given rise to the crea
tion of a good many technical schools
in Great Britain. The movement is
stimulated by a recognition of the
superior opportunities of instruction
enioved bv German artisans, and by th
fact that England is no longer able to
compete with Germauy in several de
partments of skilled industry.
