WHAT MODERN SAILORS FEAR
Hot Winds and Sens, but an Eiplo
sion Which Scuttles the Ship.
"Boiler explosions are the terror of
the seafaring man," said an old time
deep water captain. "Such a thing is
bad enough on dry land, but imagine a
catastrophe of that kind at sea. In
ninety-nine cases out of a hundred It
means the absolute wiping out of the
craft itself and every soul on board.
"The average landsman would be
greatly shocked in looking over the
maritime records to see how many ves
sels disappear each year aiffi leave
absolutely no clew to their fate. They
run well up to the hundred mark, and
such a mystery is not to be explained
away by storms. A Chinese typhoon
may swoop down like lightning out of
a clear sky and tear a ship to pieces,
but some floating wreckage is sure to
tell the tale. A boiler explosion, on the
contrary, will blow a hole as big as a
railroad tunnel right through the center
of the hull, and the stricken vessel
simply goes down like a shot. There
is no time to unfasten a boat from the
davits or cut loose a spar.
"In the opinion of seamen, that is
the story of at least 90 per cent of the
ships that leave port and are never
heard of again. Luckily the modem
system of marine boiler inspection
is extremely strict and thorough, but it
Is impossible to absolutely prevent
carelessness and fraud, and often
enough, no doubt, the fault lies with
the engineer.
"There is an old story of a drunken
Scotchman who mistook the ther
mometer for the steam gage and 'cuss
ed out' the stokers because he couldn't
get the pressure above 80. That yarn
will hardly hold water, but I've seen
cases almost as bad. I am glad to say,
however, that during the past 10 years
there lias been a steady diminution of
the number of vessels which 'mys
teriously disappear.' That is due, be
yond all question, to the increased
stringency of boiler inspection and the
greater strictness of examinations be
fore a license is issued to engineers.
Nevertheless there Is still considerable
room for improvement in both
branches."—New Orleans Times-Demo
crat.
KaMnell and Ilia Songa.
The late Henry Russell, the veteran
English composer of "Cheer, Boys,
Cheer," and of more than 800 other
songs which were popular in their day,
had many amusing experiences when
he sang his ballads on various occa
sions.
Once, after rendering "Woodman,
Spare That Tree," a gentleman rose in
the gallery and asked, "Was the tree
spared?" On being answered in the
affirmative he, with a sigh of heartfelt
relief, exclaimed, "Thank God for
that!"
After singing the song of "The Dog
Carlo," who jumped off an Atlantic
liner and saved a child's life, Russell
was gravely waited upon by a couple
of Yorkshire miners, who begged him
for a pup.
One of Russell's songs, of which the
words were changed in accordance
with the altered conditions, is our na
tional anthem, "Columbia, the Gem of
the Ocean."—Argonaut.

THE HOUSEHOLD.
Plain Vfrioi "Fancy" Cookery.
Lighter Holders Easily Made.
The Antique Fornltaro I rase.
There has always been a goodly baud
of conservatives opposed to what they
call faucy cooking. Generally, In
common with the untrained domestic
servant, they reckon all efforts of the
culinary art with which they are unfa
miliar as "French cookery," to them
the tlnal term of opprobrium. Let us
look at the latter in the right light, for,
be It known, there are few things more
expensive than the so called "plain"
cookery. While it may eschew French
dishes and Imported delicacies, its
stronghold is in roasts, steaks, chops,
meat soups and the like. Good steak
and chops do not cost as much as
sweetbreads and game, but they are
far more costly than the many savory
dishes that can be prepared by a little
attention to the stigmatized "fancy"
cookery.
If the housekeeper will but turn her
attention to the possibilities of cheap
cuts of meat, she will be surprised to
see how she can reduce her butcher's
bills. Well seasoned stews, appetizing
pot roasts or braised cuts will often
take the place on her table of the plain
roast or broiled. In the using of left
overs In a palatable fashion the de
spised French cookery is invaluable,
since it gives the secret of sauces that
disguise the warmed up flavor of the
meat and make a palatable and attrac
tive dish out of what in the old time
would have been the everlasting cold
roast or the equally long lived hash.
Hash ia an excellent thing, but a
change to ininces, meat pies, salmis,
pates and the like will usually prove
acceptable.—Christine Terhune Herrick
in Good Housekeeping.
Lighter Holders.
You can make a very pretty lighter
holder from an old tin, over which you
have sewed a piece of embroidered ma
terial. Glue a nice circle at the out-
in
side bottom. This can be done by cov
ering a card with the same stuff and
theu gluing it to the bottom. Line
the tin with black glazed paper.
The Antique Furniture frame.
The taste for antique furniture has
spread over the land. Ordinarily fads
that begin so violently show an early
prospect of decline, but this one sweeps
on unabated, and the person who is
once seized with it is not likely to get
over It.
In the first stage of the malady com
fort and beauty are not considered.
Any old battered mahogany thing is a
treasured possession. Chairs with tot
tering legs, sideboards with doors that
cannot be opened except by arduous
efforts, bureaus with drawers that
creak and groan and at times distinctly
refuse to budge, all are acquired with
eager pride. But after the disease has
run Its course and the patient is con
valescent, she will have learned enough
of good English and colonial models
to feel a hearty disgust for rickety
trash and henceforth will buy only
those pieces that have other claims
upon regard than mere age.
No honest antiquity dealer will sell
a reproduction as an antique. There
are excellent imitations of old furni
ture which are manufactured especial
ly for the antiquity trade, and there
are dealers who will label them old
and And beginners green enough to
swallow the bait, but the demand for
antique furniture lias been so great for
the last few years that only the most
! Inexperienced collector is likely to
j make indiscrluiinating blunders.—

HOUSES GROUND
The Reason They Teem With Mala
ria and Xoxlous Gases.
Good gravel has so largely come into
request that many suburban lands
with that valuable substratum are
quarried to a considerable depth be
fore being sold on building leases. But
it is essential to restore a level surface,
as even the most speculative builder
would hesitate to run up "neat villa
residences" in deep holes. The owner
frequently gets over this difficulty by
allowing urban refuse to be shot into
the excavation; in many cases he even
exacts a small sum for every load tilted
on his ground. The surface being thus
leveled, a year or two are allowed for
the soil to sink and become compact
Occasionally grass is sown to give a
natural appearance to the spot.
All is now in readiness for the build
er, who proceeds to lay the foundation
for his "terraces," "avenues" and "gar
dens," which he subsequently adver
tises as "on gravel soil." So they are,
but between their ground floors and the
gravel lies a thick stratum of partially
decomposed rubbish, teaming with
malaria, and not for many years will
the deposits cease to give ofT noxious
gases.
But the tenant, coming from a dif
ferent locality, knows nothing of the
"making" process to which the plot
has been subjected. When, therefore,
ill health dogs his family, he puts it
down to defective drainage or some
other structural deficiency and spends
money freely on remedial measures
without the least benefit. All this
misery might be prevented If It were
legally prohibited to build human habi
tations on decomposed refuse until the
soil had acquired a wholesome char
acter.—Loudon Globe.
Arrnnglng the Table.
Perfectly laundered linen and glisten
ing silver, glass and china are the first
essentials at any feast, whether costly
or simple. A crystal bowl or lily shap
ed vase of flowers on an embroidered
centerpiece is always pretty. Where
there is only one girl the hostess of
course sets the dinner table early in the
afternoon with all but eatables. At the
right of the cover there should be two
knives, with the blades toward the
plate; a soup spoon between the knives,
the butter spreader next and the oyster
fork on the extreme right At the left
there should be two forks and the nap
kin infolding a roll. The tines of the
forks and bowls of the spoons should
all lie upward; otherwise they mar the
cloth. A salt dish, with its tluy spoon,
stands In front of each plate. Tea
spoons are llitle used at dinners, the
vegetables being served on the plates
with the meat. Forks are passed after
the dessert Is served.
Soar Milk Grlildl.cakes.
There are no griildlecakes quite so

WHAT WE MOST NEED
GOLDEN RULE MORALITY INSTEAD OF
LAW MADE MORALITY.
There Mast Be "Chariots of the San"
For All or For None —We All
Stand Self Condemned) Accord-In®
to Christ's Words.
[Special Correspondence.]
Emerson has said: "Every man takes
care that his neighbor shall not cheat
him. But the day comes when he be
gins to care that he does not cheat his
neighbor. Then all goes well. lie has
changed his market car Into a chariot
of the sun." Most people will consider
those four sentences us about perfect.
They certainly embody a grand con
cept, but Is it complete? Let us look
at It under the light of historical events
In their grand ensemble of results.
There Is not a single philosophic max
im. not'a single solitary moral precept,
which Is not equally applicable to men
Individually and in groups. The moral
law is no respecter of persons. It
takes in all men and all human rela
tions. It is because that has never
been part and parcel of ehll and reli
gious education that we remain In the
wilderness of moral anarchy. Of course
we have a certain morality fixed by leg
islative enactments. Of course we have
certain forms of respectability ordain
ed by tradition, fashions, common
agreements, etc., but has that proved
enough? Has that made life worth liv
ing? Has that suppressed evil, wrong,
disease? Has that given us anything
of the peace that passeth all under
standing? It has simply given us the
wars and excitements that prevent us
from understanding anything.
"A day comes when man begins to
care that he does not cheat his neigh
bor." Has that day come? It can
only come when we stand by honest
laws In all our social relations. It can
only come when we have less respect
for the twisted morality Ingrained in
our legislation and more respect for
the eternal moral law of God. Have
we any of the latter? Yes, considerable
In praying for It, none at all in acting.
All our thoughts, feelings and acts are
yet bent upon the mean, petty, narrow
morality that limits its sphere of action
on personal relations. Each individual
considers himself yet the center of the
moral order, the latter being fixed by
our own laws or traditions for the ex
clusive benefit of certain individuals,
the smartest of the lot—those who have
Influence enough to get behind the law,
to control the law, to modify It and
change It and reverse It for some to
be always ou top, for most of the rest
to remain at the bottom.
All our constant changes and re
touchings in the miserable hash of our
law manipulations—there you have
the symbol of error and immorality,
the emblem of injustice and oppres
sion. Truth is fixed. It changes not.
Right is always right, because It Is
always the same—one and indivisible
forever.
It Is very nice to speak of each one
of us as being able "to change his mar
ket car into a chariot of the sun" by
the mere process of personal honesty.
But who does It? It can only be done
through poverty and obscurity. But
who cares for that? Are not obscurity
and poverty considered as synonymous
with Inferiority and worthlessness. But
why should there be any worthlessness
anywhere? Why should goodness and
wealth be piled up here and there?
All God's laws In nature are laws of
diffusion. There is no poverty or in
feriority anywhere outside of man in
contact with other men, and then It is
only In proportion as they try to live
against the natural laws of complete
reciprocity and absolute brotherhood
among them. Poverty and inferiority
are then the reflex of immoral social
conditions. We all stand self condemn
ed, as men and as citizens, as long as
our social status evolves classes and
masses, wealth and poverty, goodness
and wickedness, unless we preach and
work for essentially distinct social con
ditions.
The chariot of the sun can only be
here when we shake off the dust of
selfishness and greed, when we cease
to worship wealth, when we rise from
the slumps and fetid miasma of our
law made morality, of our Pharisaical
respectability, Into the clear skies of
the golden rule morality. And that
golden rule should not remain a mere
vain theory. It should be applied to
all our collective relations. It should
be the guiding star of the nation In all
civil, political and industrial manifesta
tions. Have we anything of the kind?
Is not the spirit of the age, outside of
petty groups of men here and there,
exclusive, selfish, with not an atom of
altruism in acts, however much we
may have of it In our chatter, with
which to hide the repulsiveness of all
our social developments?
There can be no chariot of the sun
for any of us as long as we don't want
to have a chariot of the sun for all.
There haa to be a chariot of despair
for every one of us as long as we
worship wealth and relegate the estab
lishment of righteousness to a tomor
row that never comes, that can never
come because we are not yet ready for
it—we don't want it.
"That they may perfect in one" was
Christ's last prayer. What can that
mean but the realization of the brother
hood of men through socialized hones
ty? Mere personal honesty! What a mis
erable failure has that been ever
since Cain killed Abel!
