~gnstronomic specialists to be found IN
the big fashionable hotels ashore. A
ships butcher cuts the roastS and
Joints and takes general charge of the
meat supply, and there are several
~storekeepers, who, 1t is true, do not sell
goods. but who keep as exact account
of all the groceries and other supplies
issued for the use of passengers and
crew as though their livelihood depend
ed upon it.
Besides these, every liner carries a
barber, for passengers long ago gave
up the habit of going unshaven from
beginning to end of the voyage. The
barber has a comfortable little shop,
and next door to him perhaps is in
stalled the barkeeper, who from the
nature of his clientele is required to be
adept in mixing the drinks Of all ma
tons. Still more surprising to the mex
perienced traveller 1t will perhaps be to-
learn that the big steamships carry
four or five bootblacks to keep the pas
sengers in shines.
OF the learned professions the only
one regularly represented is that of
medicine. Every liner carries a ur-
geon, who not only attends to pas
sengers or members of the crew who
may fall i'll, but who is also charged
with the general supervision of tho
health and sanitation of the vessel.
There are usually plenty of 'sea law
yers" on bCard-not that there Is any
demand for legal services-and if clergy.
men are not among the passengers the
captain or purser is qualified to read
he service on Sundays.
The issuing Of a paper containing tele-
graphic news involves of course an edi.
tor and a wireless telegrapher. The
editorial duties are assumed by the
purser, and the wireless operator not
only receives the news for the ships
paper, but takes and transmits mes
sages for the passengers as well. The
ships printer prints not only the ships
newspaper, but the daily menus and
concert programmes as well.
Most Of the liners carry one or more
musicians. Some have fully equipped
bands that furnish daily music, and
those liners which do not include Il
complete musical outfit have at least
one or more buglers to sound the calls
for meals and for inspection.
Every liner has on board a carpenter
who makes necessary interior repairs
and looks after the boats tanks and
wells, and there are to be found among
the stewards and anne handy men of
other trades. All of which goes to
show hat the modern floating city,
Is a very cosmopolitan and, if need be,
a very self reliant community.

THE Il STEAMERS
FLOATING CITIES WITH A VARIETY
OF OCCUPATIONS.
The Dfversaoa of Industry md the
Trades mad Professions That Are
Represented In the Crew of "A Great
Atlantic Liner.

The great Atlantic liners have often
been described as floating cities, and
in at least one particular the COMPARE
SON is entirely ac~curate-tbat is to say,
In the variety OF occupations represent
ed on shipb0ard. a big steamship will
in her fight from land to land carry a
| population Of p>fhaps 1000. of whom
the majority, of course. are passengers
people of all professions and lines
Of business. Leaving passengers out
Of account, however. and considering
only the 500 or thereabouts who go to
make up the liners crew. n will cas-
ily find representatives of nearly all
the trades Of "A thriving community
ashore.
This diversity OF industry represents
an eYolution-or. rather. Il revolution
that has come along with the develop
ment Of the gigantic modern steam
ship. In the old days of sailing ships
all the members Of the vessels crew
were sailors and performed one part or
another of Il sailors work. Even the
redoubtable cook was usually much
better versed in matters relating to
spars and ratlines than he was in the
secrets of the culinary art. But today
the status is different. Navigation of
the big Atlantic flierS is Il complicated
task. and the number of men required
to carry it on is ten times greater than
on even the biggest ships of a century
ago. The variety of their vacations
has of course been multiplied to CORE
spond with the increased compleXity.
The sailors are in Il small minority
nowadays. True, you will see a num-
Der of seamen on the big ships. and
these still have their duties to perform,
duties which. however, have nothing
to do with the handling of sails, for
not in ii number of years has canvas
been spread on any of the big liners.
But common sailors seem few in COM
parison with the men of other trades
whose usefulness on shipboard the sea
captain of a generation or two ago
would have found hard to explain or
even understand.
Some of the greatest changes in the
conditions of service have come about,
naturally enough, through the intro
duction of steam machinery. The pres
ence of machinery means that the liner
must carry not only a number of engi-
neers, but also several machinists to
keep in order the complicated mechan-
ism of pumps and blowers and deck en-
gines which a big vessel carries. Then,
since every great passenger ship is pro-
vided throughout with a modern plumb
ing system, she must have in readiness
a qualified plumber. An expert electri-
clan is also needed to look after the
electric lighting plant, a refrigerating
engineer for the cold storage plant and
a number Of other representatives of
different branches of the engineering
profession.
Instead Of the ancient cook with his
very limited accomplishments the up to
date liner has an expert chef, besides
bakers, confectioners and also the other

VICTORY OF THE SURGEONS.

The more one thinks about it the
more reason there appears to be for be-
,ieving that the chief victory of Japan
in the war with Russ a has been the
victory of the surgeons. In no o her
war. so far as known. has the proper
ton of deaths from wound and disease
been so small. Usually, IN war, as Ma
jor Seaman pointed out to the Assac3a-
ton of Military Surgeons in session a.
Detroit last week. four men die of ds-
ease to one who dies of wounds. In the
war just closed the japanese losses up
to September 81 are given as: * ed IN

may be too low, but with that possibil-
ity we are not now concerned. The
amazing fact is the small proportion Of
deaths from disease. Inc nSureS De

thanks to the simple but effective field
surgery. The aseptie method was gem
orally followed. Wounds were bath d
with sterilized water and bound up with
steri lied cotton wool, and as a ru {
they healed readily. 1t was found that
bullets and pieces of shell were aseptic;
suppuration occurred seldom except
when fragments of clothing had been
carried into the wound. In the navy
the surgeons pushed their sanitary pre-
cautions so far as to make the men

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by local applications. as they cannon

There is only one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con

imperfect hearing. and when 1t is en-
tirely closed. Deafness is the result
and unless the Inflammation can De
