STUDENTS WITHOUT MONEY.
They Can Readily Mako Their
Way Through College.

There is no reason why q students
food should cost him one cent, writes
Jesse Lynch williams, advising young
men how to work their way through
college, in Ladies' Home Journal.
Every freshman has just as much right,
and certainly has as good chance, to
get up an eating club among his own
classmates as the upper classmen have.
A club means merely tableful of eight
OF sixteen more or less congcnial fel-
lows, generally classmates. The man
who runs the club does not cater for it,
In most cases he does absolutely moth
ing except gather the crowd together
at the beginning of the year, and in re-
turu he receives his own meals free OF
charge When he has once started it a
man can generally run a club ala
through his course AS for clothes, a
Ftudent ought to be able TO earn them
during the long three months Of sum-
ner. The present generation does not
wait on table at summer hotels, but II
frequently manages the hotels or acts
as clerks, Many hotel proprietors pre-
fer college men because they are apt
80 be gentlemen, and they@are good at
I organizing athletic games, etc. Other
Students act - bathing masters, O.

Helen c. Candee gives an interesting
view Of Housekeeping on an Ocean

thus describing the vessels china and
silver; "There are a thousand spoons
for soup, the same number for tea, and
half that number for coffee AID dessert.
The heaviest fork drawer contains a
thousand dinner forks, and next to that
IS the same number of breakfast forks.
For raw oysters there are 300 forks pro-
vided, and for fish about the same num-
ber. Knives follow closely the same
figures, ]. 600 each Of dinner and break
fast sizes, COO for dessert, and 26O for
fruit. The pantry is lined with shelves
which are fitted with racks in which
stand high piles OF china, secure from
the motion Of the stormiest sea. The
plate-warmer holds many Of them, but
there are enough left to stock china
shop There are 200 cups and saueers
