ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS;

Ehe modern transatlantic steamship

phic representation. reproduced from

dering amount Of provisions that have
to be taken aboard for single trip
across the ocean. Our pictorial rep
resentation is, of course. purely imag-
fnary, particularly as regards the live
stock; the beef, mutton, game. etc.,
received on the ship in the dressed
condition, no live stock whatever
being carried. The drawing was
made up from 4 list of the actual
amount of provisions carried on a re-
cent eastward trip on the Deutschland,
and the number Of live stock which
contributed to meet the supplies for
one voyage was estimated from the
actual number Of cattle, sheep. etc.,
unat would be required to make up
the total weights In dressed meats
given in the table. With the excep-
tion Of the live stock, the provisions
are shown in the actual shape in
which they would be taken on board.
The dimensions Of the vessel are:
Length, 6S6 feet; beam, sixty seven
feet. and displacement, $4,000 tons;
her highest average speed for the
whole trip is 1886 knots, and she has

Primitive Writing Materials.

Among the North American Indians
picture writing on stones, horn and
buffalo robes was common, but bark
was also largely used. Then much
writing has been done on bone. Pre-
historic man used it, Of course, FOR his
imperfect picture-writing, and the
Koran was first written on shoulder
bones Of mutton, and kept in a chest
Of one of Mohammed's wives.
Something akin to bone is ivory, and
writing on ivory. as early q practice
as writing on bone, has persisted to
the present day among Oriental ma
tions, for the reason that ivory is a
beautiful and expensive material, fit.
ted for the reception Of important
ceremonial writings. The edicts Of the
Roman Senate were written on plates
of ivory. These plates wer" called
"libri elephant" by way Of acknowl-
edgement to the elephant who had pro-
vided the article.
The Eskimos, too, in their cooler
climate, have used walrus ivory for
records of hunting and fishing expedi.
tions. Their bone implements also are
covered with such picture-writlng.

weighing r95 pounds. this item alone
adding a weight Of eight and a half
tons to the cooks stores. To this also
we must add $50 pounds Of yeast and
600 pounds Of oatmeal and hominy.
Under the head of liquids the most
important item is the 400 tons OF
drinking water. whose bulk Is ade-
quately represented by the circular
tank shown in our engraving. This Is
supplemented by 10000 quarts of
wines and liquors. $4,000 quarts of
beer in kegs, besides 5000 bottles of
beer. Last, but not by any means
least, is the supply Of forty tons of Ice.
Of course 1t is not to be supposed
that all of this supply will be con-
sumed on the voyage. There must be
a margin, and fairly liberal margin,
Of every kind of provision. Moreover.
the extent to which the larder and eel
lar are emptied will vary according to
the conditions Of the voyage. In
tempestuous weather, where the trip
is a succession of heavy gales, and the
dining room tables are liable to be
practically deserted for two or three
days at a stretch, the consumption
will be modified considerably.

Go Hand in Hand.

All experience with horseless car
rlages and vehicles Of every sort shows
more and more clearly that the sue
cess Of the automobile is inseparably
connected with the Improvement Of
country roads and city streets. Where
the highways are always in good con.
dition nothing prevents the "auto'
from doing what is desired. 1t goes
anywhere and does anything within
reason. But where or when the roads
are soft the horseless carriage is
practical failure This broad fact
means much for the improvement OF
the highways of the United States. II

good roads which has been gaming
ground Of late.-Cleyeland Leader.

The EnsIneer Then and Now.

Most of us remember the days when
an engineer was groom, driver, rubber,
machinist, repairer, oiler, polisher and
everything else about an engine. To-
day? Bless you! In fashionable
clothes he ascends to his cushioned
seat. His hands are gloved. Patent
feathers are on his feet. The gong
rings. He opens the throttle, and off!
At the end of his run he descends to
mother earth, unsoiled, unspotted, un-
scathed, ready for any social func-
ton Of his set. The stablemen hasten
to take his horse for a rub down, and
