Waiting on the passengers st table,

up tbe steward's dining room duties.
The other half Is work in the state

up the rooms and doing tbe general
work ot a chambermaid, as well as giv
lng a certain amount of attendance to

Tbe Grecians placed In the sun the
god of their wisdom and Intelligence
and gave him a chariot and four fiery
horses the chariot to symbolize doc
trine and the horses Intelligences. So
with their god of the sea.- Neptune
was drawn In his sea chariot by hones
the sea to symbolise all scientific
knowledge in general, the chariot to
symbolize doctrine or science and the
hones Intelligences. They mytholog
lcally described the birth of l!i! sciences
by tbe flying borne Pegasus, which
with its hoofs burst open a fnu nalu
out of the bard rock at the moment ot
his rising from earth to heaven, nl
which fountain were seven virgins
who wore the seven sciences.
Tbe flying horse symbolizes an Intel
ligence directed heavenward; the hard
rock represents hard matter of fact or
sensual knowledge; tbe fountain spring
ing therefrom represents pure truth,
where the virgin sciences delight to

There are suggestions without nutn

ble chiropodist and some woo are not
reputable can furnish an unfailing
remedy. But there Is one sure way to
prevent them. Don't wesr the same
pair of shoes two days In succession.
Corns are caused by friction on the
toes, and the most export bootmaker
cannot make two pairs of shoes which
will rub the feet In tbe same place.
Tbe change of shoes gives the feet a
chance to rest It Is also good for the
shoes, and footwear which is treated
in this fashion will last much longer
than If put to dally use.
