BY THE SIDE OF
THE ROSIE LEE
The Sebastian Bach Suddenly
Resigns Her Position in
Rotten Row.

The old bark Sebastian Bach sank to
her last rest yesterday morning. and
today her rotting keel keeps company
with the barnacled ribs OF the bark
Rosie Lee. which Joined the great ma
jority long years ago.
The old vessel sank without warning
about 9 O'Clock yesterday morning. and
a number OF Japanese who were work.
ing in her hold narrowly escaped
drowning. The lumber from the
schooner Waialua had been transferred
to the Sebastian Bach. and yesterday
morning the schooner Alice Kimbali
was engaged in loading some of the
lumber. preparatory to taking it to its
original destination on Kauai.
Work was steadily progressing when
the old vessel suddenly lurched to port
and the water rushed in at her ports.
She rolled back on an even keel and
stayed there momentarily, and then
rolled over to starboard. Once again
she righted herself. and then sank in
about six fathoms, leaving about four
feet of her hull visible above water
The crew of the Alice Kimbar went
to the rescue Of those aboard the Sc
bastian Bach, and all were gotten
aboard in safety Many OF the Japa-
nese were picked up in the water of the
narbor. struggling for dear life.

The result was that on account of her 1

sink.

But IL Won't Cure Dandruff.

II your hair is brittle and thinning

cure dandruff: because dandruff Is
nothing but scales OF scalp being
thrown up by a pestiferous little germ

hair where IL saps the vitality causing

YOU can't stop dandruff. nor falling

WHY We Eat some Foods

Why do you take milk in your tea
Most persons would answer because they
liked it that way, but the scientists have
found deeper reason, placing the custom
on purely scientific grounds. These learn
ed ones discourse as follows We use SUI
gar in our tea to prevent injury to the coat
inps of our stomachs. Whenever fannie
acid and albumen meet, they fall desper-
ately in love with each other, get married
without bans and live togethersever after
ward as tannate of albumen, or leather.
Now, there is tannic acid In tea and lot
of albumen in the coating OF the stomach
The tannic acid weds as much OF this as Is
allowed by the laws OF chemistry and so
far Injuries the stomach.
But milk also contains albunen. When
milk is added to tea, therefore, the mole
cules of tannic acid select their albumen
partners from t,and as divorce is I'M
known to tannate of albumen the albumen
of the stomach remains single, and so the
lining of the stomach is uninjured.
Now you may imagine that when you
mix a salad dressing you put vinegar in II
because it tastes better made that way, but
you are wrong again. 1t is for a chemical
reason, which is as follows:
Raw vegetables are easily digested
BY COWS and horses, but with difficulty by
the human stomach, because they contain
that hard. fibrous substance, cellulose.
But acids dissolve celulose, and vinegar
is an acid. That is why we take 1t with
salad and cabbage, and doubtless that Is
why il tastes so well, for the palate is an
excellent Judge OF what is good for the
stomach Oil is added for the very good
reason that it protects the lining of the
stomach from the action of the acid in the
vinegar.
Why do we take butter on bread?
Partly because wheaton flour does not con-
tain enough fat, and partly because butter
contains a trifing quantity oil substances
called extractives, which in some un-
known way stimulate the appetite and aid
digestion. a.
Why do we take pepper, mustard and
spices? Because they tickle the glands OF
the stomach and make them work. Con-
sequently, they produce an abundant sup
ply of digestive juices. They also stir up
the liver. and stirring up OF this organ
is an important thing for people who live
sedentary lives.
why do we put salt on our meat? Why,
there are two principal salts in our body.
and their supply has to be kept up. They
are sodium salts and potassium salts. There
is sufficient OF the latter in the food we
eat, but not OF the former. We therefore
have to add the sodium salts in the form
of common salt. which is sodium chloride.
Another reason why we eat common salt is
that certain amount of hydrochloric acid
is needed by the stomach for the pur-
poses OF digestion and also to kill off some
of the microbes we swallow. This acid is
manufactured in the stomach from hydro
gen and chloride of common salt We
take more salt with some meats than with
others. because some naturally contain
less salt than others. So by our con-
diments we seek to even up things New
