SHIP CUSHIONS.
Measuring Vessels For Their Outfit-w What
Ship Cushions Are Made of.

Measuring Vessels For Their Outfit-What
Ship Cushions Are Made of.
When new vessel is ready 70 be fitted
out with her cushions, she is measured
for them, not as church would be, for
a certain number Of cushions of spec
fled size. to supply certain number of
peWs, but every space IN which q cush-
ion is to be placed separately. On
large vessel there might be a number Of
cushions Of the same Dimensions, but
marine architecture is such that cush-
ions may be required On the same vessel
in a great variety of forms, and of vary
ing dimensions even within given lines,
narrower at one end, for instance, than
at the other. And cushions are made to
fit around masts, and around the round
ed ends of cabins, and in other spaces
where they must be made in the form
of an arc of a circle, and ship cushions
are made V shaped and in other shapes
to fit into various hooks and joys.
All cushions are made with vertical
front edge, and most of them are made,
with vertical rear edge, but ship
cushions are often made with rounded
or beveled rear edge to fit handsomely
against the side of the vessel, which
serves as a back to the seat, but may
slope away at a sharper angle than seat
backs commonly do
Practically every boat that is set
afioat, whatever she may be, big or lit
tie, is individually measured through
out for her cushions. The same materi-
ais for stuffing cushions that are used
on land are used on the water-hair.
moss, cotton and SO on--and ship cush-
ions are sometimes stuffed with cork
clippings for their buoyant properties
The materials most commonly used In
covering church cushions are damasks
and reps, the damasks more generally.
The material most commonly used in
covering ship cushions is mohair plush,
which is made in various colors and
qualities. Leather is also used in cover
ing ship cushions, especially in smok-
ing rooms and chartrooms and aboard
yachts. and it costs little, if any, more
than fine quality of mohair plush. -

Protruding chins characterize men

A broken toy-what memories cling
Around this half forgotten thingl
What baby laughter seems to rise,
Like old, delightful melodiesl
What shouts of wordless, tuneful JOY
At sight of this poor broken toyl
oh, tiny feet that would not rest!
oh, dear head pillowed on z.r breast,
What would we give to holo again
The form we lost mid tears and paint
All, child, the empty cot is ours,
But thine the sunshine and the fiowersi
What could we give thee shouldst thou
come
TO smile again upon thy home?
Such little pleasures as we know
In this our twilight life below,
Some fragments of earth paltry joys,
A handful of its broken toysi
How calm thy lot, forever blesti
How exquisite thy happy resti
Z How changeless, joyful and serene,
Compared with what thy lot had been
With Us, whose feeting, clouded joys
Are at their best but broken toysl
