The combination ocean freight and
passenger steamers will not become a
thing of the past entirely, but the time
Is near when the distinctive OCEAN pas
senger steamer will be common enough.
1t is but natural that with steady and
enormous increase in transportation the
ocean traffic should take on some Of the
features of utailroad work, and freight
and pass senger business be carried on
in different vessels. Upon very long
voyages this may not be done for years
to come, If 1t really ever is, owing 10
the comparative hack of trade THAT would
permit of the expense. But in the North
Atlantic trade and in other directions
the change is certain. The movement
Is sean i'm the increase and improvement
Of the purely freight steamer, and in
the decreasing space set aside for cargo
in the latest fthe first-class passenger
boats. The next move will be AN al
lotment of room for express matter
only, and the passenger boat will then
be what her name implies. Whether
the purely passenger boat will be d.
vlded into two classes, one with extra
accommodations at high rates, extra
speed, and answering in a measure TO
a Pullman car, and the other Of slower
speed, good accommodations and rea-
sonable fare is matter OF opinion YET,
but If the travel across the Atlantic
keeps up its steady increase, then fur
Hher discussion of traffic may be ex-
pected-New York Maritime Register.

pounds on his shoulders-carried, of

We feel indeed some doubt whether
the relation between the power of walk.

Many classes of Benegalese, who are a
feeble folk, seem in walking tireless,

men who in struggle would throw

Melons at Christ mas.

Some years ago a man in New Jer-
sey vanished some watermelons, and, ,
he claims, kept them in good condition
until Christmans, He put one or two
coats of varnish on them; of course,
letting each one dry before putting on
another. He kept them I'M cool
place, but took care not to let them
get frozen. 1t is said, however, by
others who have tried this plan that q
slight taste of the varnish was discov-
cred, which was due, of course, to the
liquid making its way through the rind.
But the New Jersey man said his mel.
ons were as fresh at Christmas as in
August. and that he did not detect any
taste of the varnish. 1t is more than
likely that the cold storage warehouse,
which can easily regulate the tempera.
ture so as to keep it at proper degree
above the freezing point, could keep
the melons fresh, just asst was claimed
could be done with them in Barnum g
cool cellar. Many countrymen secure
for themselves the same advantages of
Barnum's cold storage by placing the
melons carefully in the barn, covering
them with fodder and leaving them
undisturbed. 1t is not an unusual
treat.-Baltimore American.
