ladders and gratings with sand and
canvas continues until ten minutes of
8 o'clock, when the call to "spread
mess gear" is sounded by the boat
swain's mate on watch. This is also
the signal to clean up, and each jackie
grabs deck bucket, gets his share of
fresh water from the captain of his
part of the ship, and makes his toilet,
which, if not elaborate, amply suffices
for his needs.
After the washing, the sailors
toilet consists of vigorous rubbing
with a coarse towel-his own private
property-and a hair brushing with
the aid of an ancient brush and a small
wooden-framed glass generally carried
in the little chest, or ditty box, which
is the officially approved trunk of each
jackie.
At the stroke of eight bells, 8
o'clock, the call to breakfast is given.
Salty air and an open, free life pro.
duce excellent appetites, and there is
no dawdling in the race for the mess
tables on the berthdeck.
Breakfast over, the men have until
9 to smoke, then all hands are turned
to and the ship is cleaned up for quar-
ters. This latter ceremony is con-
Quoted daily, rain or shine. During

yawns, not unmixed with something
stronger, from the occupants of the
hammock crowded berth deck, and
presently the ladder leading above is
thronged with half-clad figures mount
ing upward in ghostly procession.
Each figure carries upon his shoulder
his individual hammock, carefully
lashed and fetterei. This he de-
posits in the receptacles prepared for
the purpose and then hies himself to
his mess, where he finds steaming cof-
fee without milk and barely sweetened,
but extremely welcome as an eye
opener.
The spotlessly clean decks of naval
vessels are proverbial. This cleanli-
ness, which seemed novel even to royal
eyes, is the result OF hours of hard,
constant work every morning on board
every ship in the service. 1t is to the
executive officer that all praise or
blame in reference to the condition of
q ship belongs, and directly after the
crew has had its early coffee he is on
deck personally experimenting the
holystoning and scrubbing and per-
haps painting. Hereleves the officer
of the deck, who goes below for light
lunch, and then sees that the boat
swain's mates and the captains of the
different parts of the ship distribute
their men to the best advantage. If it
be wash day the crew is allowed to at
tend to its laundry work before the
scrubbing begins, for, be it understood,
there are no "Hop Lees" or colored
women in the naval service.
1t is seldom that the ships cook,
who has the exclusive privilege to
make and sell dried apple pies at
twenty-five cents pie, and the ships
barber, who pursues his tonsorial art
at the rate OF 81 each quarter for every
man on his books, scrub their own
clothing. They are rich enough to
hire a needy landsman or coal passer
to DO il Tor them.
AS the sailors outfit consists solely
of cloth or white duck trousers, fan

The oyster openers are class by

There are as many ways of opening

his way Is the best. 1t depends upon
where a man has been brought up to

brought up in New York use nothing
but the knife, but they use it in diff
ferent ways. Not one man in hum
dred is good side knife opener.
Other men who use nothing but the
knife simply stab the oyster. Epicures
declare that this spoils it, but oyster
men say that for the general trade it
makes little difference. If shucker
has been brought up in the South,
Baltimore or Norfolk, for instance, he
uses a hammer rs we'll as knife in
opening an oyster.

How the men employed in iron
foundries, steamship boiler rooms, blast
furnaces and other torrid places stand
the terrible heat is mystery to all
but the initiated. In the melting
room of the United States mint al
Philadelphia the thermometer usually
indicates 106 degrees, in gas works
lis degrees, and in blast furnaces
about 115 degrees, while in steam
ships the firemen sometimes have to
endure 140 degrees of heat. In all
these places the men wear very little
clothing, and undoubtedly suffer from
the exposure, but not 80 much as o
person might suppose.
The explanation of this fact is that
these men are not reached by the
humidity. They are working in
places where the artificial heat is 80
intense as to drive out the humidity,
and 11S degrees of heat in pure dry
air is not felt so much as a mixture
of 80 degrees of heat and 80 per cent.
of humidity that tells on people and
sorely tries their vitality.
The humidity is the moisture in
the air. When it is very intense il
prevents the perspiration from pass
ing ont through the pores of the skin,
and its pressure on the flesh is very
exhausting and the confinement ol
perspiration exceedingly unhealthy.
Although people do not know it, they
would be cooler while sitting beside q
red hot stove than they would be in
the street on any hot midsummer
day

To Clean Diamonds,

Just at this season, when the world
is full of brides and sunbursts and
stars and other dazzling gifts of the
groom" seem as common as plain gold
wedding rings, hint on how to clean
diamonds artfully may not come amiss.
The stones should first be washed in
warm water and yellow soapsuds, with
small but not too hard brush. Rinse
and dry them carefully with a soft
cloth or silk handkerchief, and put
them in box containing lockwood
dust. Move them about in this for
sometime until they seem perfectly
dry, free them from the powder and
polish with tissue paper. New York
