HOW THE OCEAN ndPREssEs ONE.
Somehow you never realize the great big
ness of this world until you are stretched
out on steamer chair and look at the vast
expanse of water all about YOU. 1t makes
you feel as you never felt before how little
you are and how big God is. 1t makes you
wondow how many times that great mon
ster, the deep, has taken into its arms
women who are happy and those who are not
little Children who were loved and great
strong men who had thought nothing could
conquer them. You wonder who the first
man was that went a-sailing and where he
got his courage. You wonder whether
people realize the difference between going
across the ocean now and crossing it twenty
five years ago, and then you wonder if
everybody ever does remember all their
mercies.
sTEERAGE-BoRN BABY.
just as you are wondering away word
comes that there has been a baby born in

see it. Everything else is forgotten, and
away you go. 1t is funny-looking little
baby, with its big black eyes wide open and
a mop of black curly hair. Its nationality
is doubtful, its mother being French, its
father Italian, we are getting near Queens
town, and it's born under the English flag
A collection is taken up for it. Even the
people who are seasick don't mind giving
something to the baby, because they think

DOGS AS FELLOW PASSENGERS.
The Storage is too close to the butcher
shop for me to resist paying a second visit
to my Chum. The meat has had its effect
lively fight is going on, and Chum has his
small remnant Of tail standing straight up
In the air, while that brinde pup and he
are glaring at each other. l try persuasion,
it's no good. The butcher appears with a
broom, and in way sweeps up the whole
lot A wait is called, and the four dogs
sit glaring at each other, earnestly praying
that the butcher and [ will soon depart and
permit hostillties to begin again. Any hui
man being would think that four dogs going
across the ocean together wonld be good
friends, but not these four. All three of them
hate the brindle pup for being sick, and the
brindle pup hates them for not being sick,

courtesy they think butcher or owner may
have given them. When l appear Chum
looks delighted, and the other three are
grieved. When the young man who owns
the brindle pup comes to the fore the pup
becomes ecstatic and the other three look
sharp with "Hawkshaw-the-D Detective

other, and a weeks acquaintance has made
them, from a mental and spiritual stand

the butchers influence, the meat or the
original sin that exists in dogs, but the result
is at once curious and undesirable.
THE TERRIER DIDN'T LIKE IRELAND
At the first sight of Queenstown have
caught up my dog, hiding him under
my travelling cloak, have taken him on
deck TO see old Ireland and TO appreciate his
liking for 1t. He evidently does not hope
for pleasant time while he is there, for a
series of prolonged walls Is his method of
announcing his presence on board, ana IL
becomes necessary for me to take him back
to the butcher. 1 make but one request, it
is that as soon as | am well out of hearing
the butcher will give him the soundest
thrashing he ever had in his life. All the
other dogs grin and the butcher looks
happy.
WoMAN's COMPLAINTS ON BOARD SHIP.
Take it for all in all the pleasantness of a
week on the ocean depends very II Ich on
yourself. With proper preparation Of
pills before hand, prescription from your
doctor, and little care as to what you eat,
the normal woman ought to keep WELL but
it isn't the normal or special, it is the gen
ernl woman who goes to sea, and these are
some of her complaints:
She wants to know why they cook any,
thing on board The smell makes her sick
She wants to know why the captain can't
stop the ship for day or two, for none Of
the passengers would mind being a little
late, to oblige lady!
She wants to know why the ship surgeon
can't be with her all the time, for she knows
there is nobody on board who needs him 80
muchs
She wants to know why she can't get clam
juice and fresh oysters?
She wants to know why people who feel
well have the heart to enjoy themselvesl
She wants to know what in the world
people go to sea for, anyhowa She's had
enough of it.
She wants to know why she didn't think
to bring three or four soft pillows with her,
and she also wants to know why anybody
told her you could not buy shoes on the
other side, and she has none to wear except
new ones!
She wants TO know why she was ever
born, and this is what everybody else want
to know, for there seems no reason in the
world for her existence
Bah AND HER DOG ON LAND.
We are at Queenstown. The butcher has
delivered up the dog. He's too fat for
grace-the dog mean, not the butcher L
am sunpurned and happy. We are all
ready to get on the "Wild Irishman" and
fly to our destinations. I never saw one
small woman and fox terrier fly, and |
think even in Ireland 1t would be counted a
remarkable sight; however we will do our
best, and we WON'T want to know why we
don't succeed. Bah.
