a Ship Strikes a Trees Branches.

AN illustrating the safety with which
vessels can pass in AN out through the
straits f"rmiug the entrance Ia Puget
Sound and run right CLOSE to the shore
without danger of strandmg. CAPTAIN
G""rg" W. Bullcuc told the following
story the other day about Captain Farm
ham. formerly master of the ship Dash
ing Wave.
Several years ago the Dushing Wave
was beating her way in through the strait
in thick fog. Suddenly the lockout
sung ont, woods, woods" and the next
moment branches of trees could bc seen
from the poop-dcck.
Put your wheel hard apori." was the
command of the captain to the man at
the wheel
But before the ship could he brought
around the jinboom and iib sheet, were
touching the branches of the trees on the
bank
Pull in the iib shccts!" came the next
command, but before they could he haul
ed in they stuck in the branches of a
tree.
Get out there quick and get them
loose! yelled the captain at the top of
ms voice, and no sooner was the com
mand given than two active sailors were
out on the boom and had the sheets
freed. AT the same time It sudden breeze
sprung up, the ship swung out and the
two sailors were left pcrchcd ia the
branches of the trees.

The set, formal parlor, shut out
from sunshine and fresh air for the
greater part of the year, has long ago
been abandoned by the greater num-
Der of sensible hOusekeepers. This
does not mean that the parlor has
been given up, aud that the sitting
room bas taken its place. The parlor
Is necessary room to the house
mother who lives in the country and
does her own work She needs a
room set apart which she will always
find neat and dainty. Here she can
receive the untimely or the unex-
pected caller-whOm she would not be
willing to receive in the sittiug-room.
The parlor is uudisturbed by the in
vasion Of the men Of the house, and
OF children who are too hurried to set
to rights the books or furniture they
may have set awry. The sitting-room
is subject to the small tracks of for
Getful children who do not take oil
their overshoes and leave them at the
doormat, where they should be left.
1t is often n place for the temporary
deposit of various belongings Of other
members of the family. 1t is not pos
siblc to always keep the sittIng.room
in as orderly Il condition rs the mother
desires it should be- 1t is for this
reason and others that it is desirable
to have n parlor apart from the sitting
room. This is especially the mothers

used, except fer callers and company.

Keeping Fat la Condition.

1t should he remembered that while
The same fat may be used repeatedly
'or frying, it needs special care to be
kept in II suitable condition. 1t should
always he carefully strained, in order
to be sure that any crumbs or PARTICLES
Of whatever may have been fried in it
are not retained. Fat, too, that has
been used for fish cannot be used
again for anything else except fish.
Where sweets are immersed in boiling
fat, the L. .cr should not be used to
fry meats, oysters, or anything tLat
would be injured by sweet flavor.
Now that there arc several grades of
so-called olive oil, this vegetable fat
may he used more freely than when it
meant considerable item of expense.
So long rs the cheaper grade is sweet,
too close an investigation into its Gle
ments need not be insisted upon,
where it is used for frying purposes.
Food fried in the vegetable oil is more
wholesome than that cooked in the
animal fat

Are Pennies UnluCky?

a New Orleans paper the other day
gave AN account of conductor on one of
the street cars who refused to accent five
c"PPcrs as fare from passenger Con
duciors in New York City have not quito
reached that point, but if looks could kill
many poor woman who laboriouslv
hunts up the stray pennies in her purse
and calmly tenders them To the writing
conductor she would have been dead long
ago.
Why are conductors 50 aycr-r to re
crivimg pennies? The principal reason
is that pennies will not be taken from the
men at the auditors office. Conductors
cannot turn them in as part of their re-
ccipts
Many colorcd persons consider pennies
mIucky. ! saw an old southern NANNY
demonstrate with Il conductor because hc
gave her five pennies in chumgc, and
when he refused To- take them back she
threw them on the scat and left them be
hind her when she left the car
Many actors and actresses also look
upon pennies as bringing them bad luck
and often throw them away.

A Progressive Archbishop.

The Archbishop of Canterbury is
among n long list of distinguished
persons who have just signed IA petI-
tion to the English Parliament, read
ing rs follows: Chat your petitioners
hold that the recognition of the full
rights of women as capable citizens is
essential to tho establishment of social
Justice, and to the wise and efficient
government of the country. Where
fore your petitioners humbly pray
that your honorably House will pass a
measure securing to women the ri Eht
of voting for members of Parliament
on the same terms on which that right
IL or may be exercised by men"
The Archbishop of Canterbury is
the highest dignitary of the Church
of England. He is the primate of all
England, has prominent place in the
House of Lords, aud by lmmemorial
usage he presides at the coronation of
the kings and queens, and places the
crown on the head of the sovereign.
Many conservative Episcopal clergy
men will shudder at the action of the
Archbishop in signing a woman suf-
irage petition; but the late Phillips
Brooks, whom Americans loo, upon
as an even higher authority, used to
sign the woman suffrage petition every
year.
