"Rsvival work." said the professor,
"isn's what u was in the old time. The
life is different, and religious experience Is
different. have not heard q man or wo-
man shout in church for 40 years, and yet
can remember when a service or meet
ing was not counted much Of q meeting IL
some good sister did not shout. This
word meant spontaneous cutlery, in n state
of excitement and happiness too great for
utterance i'm common words, and which
found expression in hysterical shouts and
joyful ordinations. A great preacher
would stir a crowd to conviction, an cx
hortcr would make an imprisoned appeal,
some emotional woman would be asked to
pray. and soon the shouting would begin.
1.-THE good woman, kneeling on the floor
and with head bowed would begin in a
voice almost iraudible, but as she proceed
cd her voice would become louder and
stronger, her figure would become erect,
until finally in the very ecstasy of excite
ment she would cry aloud In her rejoicing
Her shouts would be greeted by exclama-
tions of 'Amenr and Glory to Godp and
then there would be handshaking, singing
and "a chorus of ecstatic EXPLANATIONS.
Before such wild wave of excitement had
expended its force dozens and scores would
be at the mourncrs' bench, surrounded by
the rejoicing church members.
II have heard my father relate most
wonderful experiences in northern Ohio,
where, in the old time, 1t was the rule for
church congregations TO be greatly moved.
II was the custom then for women to wear
busks, or corset boards, instead Of stays or
corsets. These husks were rnado Of pliabie
hickory, but they compelled woman to
sit very straight and imposed some limita-
lions on free movements. My father said
that frequently after meeting in which
there had been excitement and shouting
he had gathered up an armful of corset
boards which the women in their frenzy
had drawn from their dresses and thrown
under their seats and forgotten. Chi

WATER TIGHT BULKHEADs.
They Are Sot she Safeguard. They
Are supposed 20 ne

IL Is common belief among all who
have occasion 90 take y sea VOYAGE chat
their safety on the water Is nrovi,lcI for
by the careful shipowners In large measure
by the water tight compartments with
which all the best passenger steamships
and all large battleships are fitted.
II you have never been on a shin and
seen how these are arranged. Won will
form awrong opinion about them at once.
IL will likely occur TO you that tho boat Is
built with these bulkhoads as permanent
spaces But this Is not true A passenger
steamer, for instance, is built in sections.
and each Of these on the several decks are
used as cabins, saloons, etc, and are con-
nected by heavy iron doors. IL is the clos
ing of these doors which completes the
bulkhead.
Now, it is obvious that the bulkhead
cannot be any stronger than its door, Just
as chain is no stronger than Its weakest
link, and IL Is all too true that as at pres
ent constructed these doors are dangerous
and inefficient
They have been the direct and known
cause of the loss Of many lives and many
good ships, and, If the truth could be
known, doubtless many a ship on the list
OF the missing ana unaccounted for could
be chargcable TO faulty bulkheads
There are over $50 water tight doors
and matches ON first class battleship and
about 300 valves and CRATES connected with
vcntilating, draining and flooding the
hull and involving the safety of the ship.
Ii will be seen. therefore, that the system
attic control and operation of these de-
vices are of no mean Importance. 1t takes
ITO men to look after these details alone
in response to collision alarm, and II has
never been satisfactorily demonstrated yet
that this number are equal to the emer-
gency.
The greatest danger that is to be met
with at sea is that of collision, and against
this the bulkhead is the chief and only
protection. Yet, Notwithstanding this, IL
put to the test, il is doubtless the most
vulnerable part of the ship.
