The vessels of our fishermen in early
times were diminutive craft of only from
five to twelve tons burden, and were
pointed at both ends. They were called
pinks, or pinkies. Then the pointed Prov
gave place to n bowsprit and lib, and the
vessel, still retaining this pointed stern,
became a jigger. Today the fishing yes
sells sailing out of Gloucester are first
class two masted schoOners ranging from
20 to l25 o burden. They are the
swiftest, most buoyant and seaworthy,
and still the most beautiful and graceful
vessels afioat. The average crew for a
first class fishing vessel comprises a skip
per, or captain, and from fourteen to six
teen men, and it is almost invariably the
case that not a man is shipped who is not
as perfectly familiar as the skipper him
self with every manner of coast and
banks fishing, as well as with every CON
ceivable duty as fisherman or seaman.
The stores, or supplies, vary according
to the kind of fish sought and the proba-
BILE length of the cruise; but they are
always far superior to those provided for
seamen in merchant service. There is no
caste, no distinction in food, treatment or
fellowship; and the skipper would be ridi-
culed of the coast whose cabin table was
n stranger to fresh butter, pies, eggs, fowl,
good biscuit and coffee and the best quail
ity Of cured meats; and, as on many of
the vessels, large quantities of ice are kept
for the purpose of preserving fresh fish
for the markets, vegetables and fresh
meats are not even on extended
cruises. Aside from the serious toll. dan
gers and frequent necessary hardships en-
dured, no seafaring men command or de-
serve better food or treatment.-Edgar l..
Wakeman in New York Mail and Express.

HOUSEHOLD SERVICE.

The articles before alluded to, as ap-
pearing in the Chicago Times, expos
ing the abject slavery of the factory
girls in this city, are calling out many
attempts at finding remedy for these
SORROWS. The one most frequently
proposed is, that the girls shall go out
to service in good families, either in
the city or the country, relieving them
selves so of their abject needs, and help
ing to solve the servant-girl question
which is so perplexing everywhere.
These letters promise these girls from
two to four dollars a week in wages,
good homes, good, clean lodgings, good
food, and plenty of it. The writers of
these letters can see no reason, except
their own perverseness, why these
young women should not accept these
pleasant situations and establish them
selves for life in them. This is the
tenor of many Of the letters published
in the Times, called out by this ex-
posture Of the condition of working
girls in this city.
There are two sides to this question
of domestic service as there are to every
other. One side is this, in connection
with service in the country. The re-
cords of the Insane Asylums in this
country and Europe show that major
ity of all insane female patients are
farmers wives, driven to these asylums
from over work. Whatever may be
thought or affirmed, upon this subjec t,
this fact stands foremost, the insane
asylums are the homes Of an immense
number of farm women driven there
by the combined duties of ehild-bear-
ing and domestic drudgery. 1t is the
old story, "a woman's work is never
DONE" The continual strain of hard
work upon brain, and muscle, and
heart OF the ordinary farm woman's
life is disastrous to mind and body
alike. Hard and uncongenial as the
labor and the surroundings Of these
shop girls may be, they are for only a
limited period Of each days duration.

soul. Contempt of humanity soon at
tends this contempt of uses; truth and
right become mere fictions; the devotion
to the practical offices that are dictated
by the truth and the right become a
loathing, scorn, the soul dies. There
is not enough life left for shame at
idleness, and senselessness, or morti-
fication at the thought of subsisting in
pleasure by the tolls, the burdens and
the sacrifices of others, while perform.
ing no service and bringing no good
into the possession of anybody. What a
task, to call such "dead sinners from
their tombs," to "give" such "blind'
ones "their sight" Great as the task is,
is the task to which every Christian
worker is committed, to which he must
apply his!powers unremittingly not only
by precept, but also by example.
