The big American-IIawaiian freighter
Californian got away from the Railway
wharf yesterday evening shortly before 6
o'clock. with one of the largest cargoes
that is usually taken from this port The
Californian had CASE tons of sugar in her
hold in the form of over 10000 regula-
ton sized sacks In addition 10 this. ia
tons Of pumping machinery from the
kihei plantation were also taken destined
for New York. Captain Lyons made ex-
cept,onally rapid work Of loading his yes

expense every day they are out. The ex-
penSive manner in which the loading
was conducted was noteworthy. First
Mate Barrows succeeded in selecting eight
HawaiianS who will accompany the vessel
10 her eastern destination. The officer
ignored the proffered services Of shipping
masters and union runners for filling out
his crew. and individually picked his own
men. The Californian goes to New York

total of over 500 tons 10 be carried

Preparing For a Journey.

Jerome X Jerome recalled, with
reverence. q habit of his methodical
uncle who, before packing for jour
ney, always made Il list" This was
the system which he followed, gather
ed from his uncle's own lips:
Take a piece of paper and put down
on it everything you can possibly re-
quire. Then so over it and see that it
contains nothing you can possibly do
without.
Imagine yourself in bed. What have
you got on? Very well; put it down.
together with a change. You get up.
What do you do? Wash yourself
What do you wash yourself with?
Soap. Put down soap. Go on till you
have finished. Then take your clothes.
Begin at your feet. What do you wear
or your feet? Boots, shoes. socks. Put
them down. Work up till you get to
your head. What do you want besides
clothes? Put down everything.
This is the plan the old gentleman al
ways pursued. The list made, he would
go over it carefully to see that he had
forgotten nothing. Then he would go
over it again and strike out everything
it was possible to dispense with. Then
he would lose the list.

THE BIRTH OF TtiE NOON.
When the Earth Was Il Sphere of
Lava, Molten and EIattened.

Lava, Molten and TIcttened.
The earth revolves on =; axis once
IT. 24 hours. Millions OF years ago the
day was % hours; millions Of years be-
fore it was 81 hours. AS we look back
ward into time we fiT1 the earth re-
EoIving faster and faster. There was
2 time, ages ago, long before geology
begins, when the earth was rotating in
day of five or six hours in length. In
the remotest past the earth revolved in
a day of about five hours. 1t could re-
volve no faster than this and remain a
single unbroken mass.
It was at this time that the moon
was born-separated, broken off from
the parent mass of the earth. The
earth was then a molten, fattened
sphere of lava. It's whole body was
fluid. The tides, which now are small,
superficial and. so to say, local, were
then universal and immense. They oc-
CURED at short intervals. The whole
surface of our globe was affected.
And the corresponding lunar tides in
the fluid, molten moon were indefinite
~ greater still.
Our day is now "a hours; the distance
Of the moon is now 100000 miles.
When our day was about five hours
long, the moon was in contact with the
earth's surface. 1t had just broken
away from its parent mass. AS the
length of the terrestrial day increased,
SC did the distance of the moon. The
two quantities are connected by in
cxor2ble equations. If one varies, so
must the other. Whenever the rotation
time Of planet is shorter than the
Period of revolution Of its satellite, the
effect of their mutual action is to &C.
celerate the motion of the satellite and
to force it to move in larger orbit
to increase its distance. therefore.
The day of the earth is now shorter
than the month-the period of revolu-
tiOn-Of the moon. The moon is there
fore slowly receding from u.s. and it has
been receding for thousands of CEN
turtles. But the day Of the earth is, as
we have seen. slowly growing longer.
The finger of the tides is always press
ing upon the rim of our huge hywheel
and slowly but surely lessen;ng the
speed of it's rotation. So long as the
terrestrial day is shorter than the
lunar month. the moon will continue to
recede from us.-Professor E. S. Hol-
den in Harper's Magazine.

SIMPLE REMEDIES.

Diluted ammonia is good for insect
bites and stings.
A raw egg swallowed at once upon
getting a f>hbone in the throat beyond
the reach of the finger, it is said, will
dislodge it and carry it down.
y simple remedy for indigestion IS
the white OF an egg beaten to n stiff
froth and stirred into n wineglasSful
of cold water. This should be taken
after each meal.
For burns and scalds, when no other
remedy is at hand, try the effect Of 4
piece of rag stepped in vinegar and
bound round the scar. This is espe-
cialIy useful when cooking, for the
vinegar is generally at hand.
To cure a severe case of collie take a

Eome skies may be gloomy,

Some souls must be glad;
TOE true is the saying
Proclaimed by the seer
Each day is the best day
of somebody's year,"
Zach day finds hero,
Each day helps a saint,
ZACH day brings to some one
"a Joy without faint;
though it may not be my turn
Or yours that is near
Each day is the best day
OF somebody's year,"
The:calendar sparkles
With days that have brought
Bome prize that was hoped for,
Some good that was sought;
High deeds happen daily,
Wide truths grow more clear
ssEach day is the best day
OF somebody's year!"
No sun ever rises.

The whole earth can bind;
How selfish our fretting,
How narrow our fear
Each day is the best day
