Ships With Three Crews.

A typical cable ship engaged in actual
work is first-clasS vessel in all re-
spectS, with uniformed officers and
crew, strict discipline maintained, and
every other feature OF expert naviga-
ton. The cable is coiled away in big
iron tanks, situated in what would be
the hold OF cargo ship These tanks
are from thirty to forty feet in diane
ter and are connected with one another
by ways" or ''troughs," through
which transfers can be made when oc.
cason requires. There are numerous
machines upon deck for the proper
handling of the heavy cargo. The big
funnel-lke objects lining the bulwarks
in places are buoys, useful in marking
locations.
The ship has really three crews OF
chiefs and officers. Nevertheless, they
must all work in harmony, one with
the other, or things will go wrong
There is the steamship crew-captain
engineers, mates, quartermasterS
stokers, deck hands, cooks and stew
ards; but even these men must be ex-
perienced in the special difficulties Of
navigation and labor with which they
have to contend. Then there is a GER
tain corps who have to do with the
actual cable laying. picking up, buoying
etc. although, quite naturally, they are

charged with the testing and calculat

while the ship is at work in order to
prevent costly mistakes.

Hands of a Money Handler.

Look at my hands" said a man as
he drifted into the office OF a we'll
known business man, and as he said it
he stretched his fingers out to their
full length, exposing the palms OF his
hands. The inSideS of his hands were
very rough. That was exactly what he
wanted to call attention to.

tions," he continued, these corns and
bunions and knots and other things OF
that sort? Look at EN-" He still held
his hands open for inspection. DO you

"Splittin' wood?" answered the man.

rusty hands 'Maulin' railS?" ventur-

short reply Of the man with the heavy
hands me eelli Han as last resort, Bit
he was wrong again. Well, how on
earth did you get 'em then?' he asked
with a show OF impotence. "Handlin'
money" was the mans reply and he
smiled at the look Of disgust and in
credulity which spread over the face
OF the man he was talking to. Eyes,

and knots, and other rough things
which you see on my hands by handlin'

and has started school for them.
His pupils are generally stray cats

them well.

When old age comes on catarrhal dis
eases come also. Systemic catarrh is al
most universal in old people.
This explains why Peruna has become SO
indispensable to old people. Peruna is
their safeguard. Peruna is the only rem
edy yet devised that meets these cases ex-
actly.
Such cases cannSt be treated locally;
nothing but an effective, systemic remedy
could cure them. This is exactly what Pc
runa is.
If you do not derive prompt and satisfac-
tory results from the use of Peruna, write

me drawbacks, such as unsettled
weather or bad roads at the South, the
coal shortage at the East and the con-
tinuance Of the railway congestion at
the West, affecting the movement OF
coke, bituminous coal and general
freight, but, taken as a whole, the mer-
camille community contemplates the ap-
proach of the end OF the year with COM
placency and satisfaction.
Knowing as it does that most lines
Of trade will show gains over 1901 and,
therefore, over any preceding year, the
feeling is that the year has been a good
one, while the fine wheat crop outlook
and the volume of orders already book
ed for next year give promise OF tu-
ture good conditions. Even the knowl-
edge that some manufacturing plants

rather earlier than usual holiday shut
down fails to arouse the pessimistic
feeling noted earlier in the year, when
the fuel shortage was more talked
about.
Seasonable influences affect the great
industries. Building is less active but
tie tone OF the lumber market is one
of undiminished strength. The iron
trade presents surface quletness but
some important matters are taking
place. The passing OF control OF large
Independent mills into the hands OF the
leading interest unquestionably makes
for stability in the department OF wire,
tinplatc and sheets. Southern iron
men are reported more inclined to do
business for 1908 at a reduction from
fancy quotations. Very heavy buying
OF cars and other rolling stock is lndi,,
Gated for the new year, and liberal
orders for plates, wire and structural
materials for 1908 delivery are also
noted. Pig iron and steel billets are
quiet. Irregular coke supplies harasss
furnaces and interfere with operators OF
the finishing mills. High prices OF coke
and raw materials and higher freight
rates form a combination fraught with
difficulty to independent mills. Practi-
cally the entire rail output OF the
country for next year is already sold

needed for new car building.

ALI the Men Are Princes.

There are about 10000 people scat
tered over the twenty-odd rocks or
islets which constitute the Force
group. between the Shetlands and
Iceland. Every man in the country
is in some way the descendant of 9
king-that is, Morse sea-kings, who
fed to the islands in the ninth cen
tury and peopled them.
In spite of his home-spuns, his turf
hut. and his primitive life, every good
Foroese is conscious and proud OF
his ancestry, and he bears himself
like a prince. He has no newspapers
or social problems; but he knows the
history of his island home, and he is
a constant reader of books, mostly
Danish. His literary taste Is inferior
only to that Of the Icelanders, who
for / 900 years have raised and main
tanned an ideal national literature OF
merit.
