This diversity of industry represents no evolution or, rather, a revolution Hint has come along with the develop- inent of tho KlKimtlc modern steam- Bhip. In the old days of sailing ships all the members of the vessel's crew were sailors and performed one part or another of a sailor's work.

The variety of their vocations has of course been multiplied to corre- apond with the Increased complexity, The Bailors are in a small minority nowadays. True, you will see a num ber of aeamen on the big ships, and them still have their duties to perforin, duties which, however, have nothing to do with the handling of salts, for not in a number of years Hub canvas been spread on any of the big liners. !

Borne of the greatest changes In the conditions of service have come about naturally enough, through the Intro ductlon of steam machinery. The pres ence of machinery means that the liner must carry not only a number of engi neers, but also several machinists to keep In order the complicated mechnn lsin of pumps nnd blowers und deck en pines which a big vessel carries. Then, since every great passenger ship Is pro vided throughout with a modern plumb ing Bystciri, she must have In readiness a qualilled plumber. An expert electri cian ls also needed to look after the electric lighting plant a refrlgerntlng engineer for the cold storage plant and a number of other representatives of different branches of the engineering profession. Instead of the ancient cook with his very limited accomplishments the up to date liner has an expert chef, besides bakers, confectioners and also the other gastronomic specialists to be found In the big fashionable hotels ashore. A hip's butcher cuts the roasts aud Joints and takes general charge of the meat supply, and there are several Torekeepera, who, it Is true, do not sell goods, but who keep as exact account of all the groceries and other supplies issued for the use of passengers and crew us (hough their livelihood depend ed upon It. ltesldea these, every liner carries a barber, for passengers long ago gave up the hublt of going unshaven from beginning to end of tho voyage, The barber has a comfortable little shop, and next door to him perhaps ls In stalled the barkeeper, who from the nature of his clientele ls required to be adept in mixing the drinks of ull na tions.

JAPANESE NEW YEAR'S. A Par of Itetlstlona Rites and Spe cially Prepared Dliei. To a devout Japanese breakfast on New Year's day is a religious rite rath er than a vulgar satisfaction of tbe ap petite, says the London Chronicle. No ordinary dishes are consumed at this meal. The tea must be made with wa ter drawn from the well when tho first ray of sun strikes It, a potpourri of materials specified by law forms the staple dish, while at the finish a meas ure of Bpccial sake from a red Incquer cup must be drained by whosoever de sires happiness during the coming year. In the room ls placed nn "elysian stand," or red Incquer tray, covered with evergreen leaves and bearing a rich dumpling, a lobster, oranges, per simmons, chestnuts, dried sardines and herring roe. All these dishes have n special signification. The names of Borne nre homonoyuius with words of happy omen; the others have an alle gorical meaning. The lobster's curved back and long claws typify life pro longed till the frame 1b bent nnd the beard Is long; the sardines, which nl ways swlin In pairs, express conjugal bllsB; the herring ls symbolical of a fruitful progony. These dishes are not Intended for con sumption, although In moat cases the appetite is fairly keen.

Ita Snddeat Aspect In the Puna Inst of the Home. The passing of the home Is the sad dest phenomenon of modern city life. The tenement house, which we seek to disguise under the name of "fiat," is o most wretched substitute for the hum blest of homes. That our people endure them Is an indication of degeueracy, us it will unquestionably be the cause of a more rapid descent It Is morally certain that the vigor of the race can be maintained only by personal con tact with the mother earth from which we sprang, which nourishes us to her bosom when we die. Why this is, per haps no one knows, but it 1b within the knowledge of all that the vigor of the city is coustautly recruited from coun try life. To deprive children of dally contact with the soil la a sin. The evil of the tenement house was not realized until it passed from the slums, because few of us know how the other half Uvea. It is perhaps not so desperate a misfortune to those who live by manual labor, for they get their contact with earth in other ways, and their children, less vexed by the con ventions of society, find access to the soil by some means and pass, while still young, to the occupations of their parents. The most terrible effect of the tenement house ls in the families of the "salaried' class as distinguished from the "wage earners" and who flit from flat to flat, seldom remaining It ?? enough anywhere for home nf.-'v.. tions to be formed. There can perliai be no home associations worthy of th uamo which are not counected v 'th a piece of open ground 1 , session of the family.

YMAlrxTCWilfadsen 15PrtCTS , At the New York State Assembly of Mothers, a prominent New York doctor told the 500 women present that health' American women were so rare as to be almost extinct. This seems to bo a sweeping state ment of the condition of American women. Yet how many do you know who are perfectly well and do not have some trouble arising from a derange ment oi ine iemaie organism which manifests itself in headaches, back aches, nervousness, that bearing-down feeling, painful or irregular menstrua tion, leucorrhcea, displacement of the uterus, ovarian trouble, indigestion or sleeplessness r 'mere is a tried and true remedy for all these ailments. Lydla E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound has restored more American women to health than all other reme dies in the world. It regulates, strengthens and cures diseases of the female organism as nothing else can. For thirty years it has been curing the worst forms of female com plaints. Such testimony aa the following should be convincing. Mrs. T. C.
