THE CANADIAN PACIFIC
SERVICE.

In connection with the proposed
/ Canadian Pacific service to Austria.
liza, the president of the Canadian
Pacific Railway Company writes TO
Captain ]. c. Rounding: "Our Gov.
eminent Canadian Dominion) is
now considering some tenders
, which have been received for a
fast Canadian Atlantic service,
average speed nineteen knots, and
If any of these meet the require
ments, and a contract should be
made providing for this service
active steps will at once be taken
towards an Australian service.
Gable news states that the above
has been satisfactorily settled.) The
first steamship for our China and
Japan line was launched about ten
days ago and the second and third
will follow at intervals of a month.
We hope TO send one of them to
Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney
on the way to Hongkong, bat / am
not yet sure that we will be able to
do So" The Empress of India, the
first OF the three steamers ordered
by the Canadian Pacific Railway
Company, was built at Barrow
tEngland). Her dimensions are:
Length, 4S5 feet overall; breath,
81 feet; depth, 36 feet; engines,
10000 horse power; average speed,
Is knots. She will run between
Vancouver. China and Japan. She
can be converted into an armed
cruiser very readily. She is type
of the class of vessel that the
railway company are prepared to
build for the MISUNDERSTANDING
service.
Supplementing the above in
formation, in letter dated Sydney,
Captain Rounding says: "These
vessels are 5000 tons, eighteen
knot speed, twin screws, fitted and
classed as war cruisers, and the
G. p. r.. r. Co. intend to run yes
sells of this class to Australia from
Vancouver. Such boats calling at
Suva must advance the prospects
of your port and colony-and es-
pecially those of the long-sufferlng
growers and shippers "
Another correspondent writing
on the same subject says: captain
Rounding has for long time been
paying particular attention to the
subject of banana carriage and
stowage. with the result that in the
arrangements determined for tho
Australian line it is laid down that
the vessels shall call at Suva, and
will take freight both ways, remain
ing about eight hours in Suva har-
Dor. They will be especially fitted
for carrying fruit by having fans
to drive cool air through it, the
railway fruit wagons running from
Vancouver into Canada will have
warm chambers, so that the Same
temperature will be maintained
throughout; and the fruit will not
get too hot in the tropics or too
frigid in the cold regions. The time
will not exceed five days from Suva
to Sydney or fourteen days to Van
couver and the vessels will ccr-
tainly be running within twelve
months" The writer of the letter
concludes by expressing the "hope
that the FIJI shippers will not in
the mean time enter into any con-
tracts with other companies

The word widow. in Ireland

Nothing is more likely to perplex the
English visitor to Ireland than to find
English words used there in different
sense from that in which he has been ac-
customed all his life to use them. One of
tie best known examples, perhaps, that
could be cited is the peculiar sense in
which the word "boy" is used, being, in
fact, equivalent to the English bachelor, {"
A young man is a boy" until he is mar
ried, and, though less widely, girl" is
used in a similar way to denote a spinster
To a foreign ear it sounds ludicrous to
hear gray haired man or woman spoken
OF rs a boy or n girl" but to one accus-
toned TO the country the fuller meaning
is clear.
If it is intended to convey the idea of
youth, as a rule quite different express
sion is used-it will be "wee chap" a
''gossoon," a lad or, for one more
grown, "a lump of a lad'' is the expressive
designation. Equally peculiar, but much
more Ineligible, is the Irish use of widow.
Widow in Ireland is not, as in England,
feminine 1t is u word of common gender,
and Is seldom used by itself, the gender be-
ing denoted by affixed IMAM" or woman"
thus widow man. and widow woman"
are of everyday use.--London Tit-Bts

Cheese Making.

The first stage in the making of cheese is
that by which the curd is separated from
the whey. This is done by heating the
milk to given temperature, varying ac-
cordinG to the season, and afterward adj
ding certain proportion of rennet. When
the cheese is to be colored. the dyeing mat
ter Is put in before the rennet. In less
than half an hour after the heat has been
applied the coagulation has so far pro-
crossed that the curd, from which the
whey has been drawn. is ready TO he cut.
Almost the only instrument used in the
making Of cheese is the curd knife, curl
Gus looking arrangement something like n
double comb with long teeth. The imma-
ture cheese is both cut and stirred with
this, the curd being separated into small
bits, none of them being larger than an or.
binary walnut. The stirring and heating
must go on until the curd has reached a
proper stage of what is called digestion. p"
1t is then torn into narrow strips like rib
bons, for the curd by this time is as firm
in fiber as the breast of roasted chicken,
and, indeed, looks like it. These strips are
then fed into the sailing mill, where they
are thoroughly mixed with salt and made
ready for the cheese press. Enormous
pressure is applied in this cheese press in
order that all the whey that by any posi-
bility remains may be squeezed out
From the press the cheese is taken to the
drying room, large, airy chamber, where
1t is left for days, months or even years,
according to the quality desired. 1t is fire.
quently turned and much care is expended
on it, All cheese must go through the
same stages, the different varieties being
made by certain combinations of cream,
fresh and skinned milk.-Harper's Young

Crisp Hears the News.
Out In the ante room OF the committee

He had a grievance against the. newspa-

met with quite as noisy and disagreeable
comments and replies. At last, out of all
patience, he exclaimed:
"A man comes in here, and you roar at
him so one can't get in a word.''
