DOMESTIC PROBLEM SOLVED

A certain club at Lake Geneva, af-
ter contending for several seasons with
inefficient help, believes it has solved
for itself the domestic problem. It en-
ploys mattresses who combine science
with household economics, mingling
chemistry with kitchen work, using
geometry for the saving Of labor and
Botany in the gathering Of flowers for
decorations. These young women are
.undergra duates from eastern colleges,
earning means Of livelihood and a
vacation in the country at the same,
time, with brains trained for any kind
of work-or so it would seem.
+ But this is not all. In the club g en-
ploy there is "a kitchen man, a sort Of
general factotum, who scrubs the floors,
builds. the fires and, in fact, does any
college graduate who is about to pre-
pare himself for the ministry, and is
taking this manner7both novel and
effective, one might say-of getting
himself in hand. He is the son of a
Chicago bank president, is proud Of
manual labor, not ashamed of it, and,
what is more, as a kitchen men he is a
success.
In future years, if he finds himself
mediocre as minister-or, rather, as
preacher of sermons-he can look back
and say to himself that, as fire tender,
floor scrubber and the rest, he was all
that could be desired. And he has an
assistant at the Lake Geneva club, an
other university man, who lights the
lamps on the grounds, hauls ice and
makes himself generally useful. In the
winter this person. is member Of "a
South Side church choir and has aspir-
ations for a grand opera career. Mean
while he is earning an honest living.
So much for the dignity of labor Here
certainly it is coming into its own and
gaining long neglected prestigel

SEA SEEMS ABLAZE
Phosphorescence Stimulates Waves Of
r. LIQUID Fire for Miles and Miles.

LOS Angeles derd4O. rs
San Pedro.--Ocean viewers of this
sented with the beautiful sight of
This phosphorescence formerly came
along the STONY at great intervals,
but the past three years it has been a
regular visitor every summer. The tech
nical term for it is peridinium, and it
is really the work Of animalcule SO
minute that it takes millions Of indi-
vidual specimens to fill square inch
sea to the east of San, Pedro and south
Of Terminal. -...
The little sea animals are filed with
phosphorescence and the waves often
present thrilling sight at night SINH
lar to waves Of LIQUID fire. If the night
be dark, the whole sea seems to be
ablaze, and even the sands from which
the water has receded sparkle like mol
ten gold.
. Peridinium is a native Of tropical
waters but often in midsummer seems
to drift along the coast, gradually dy
ing out until it reaches Santa Cruz, sell
dom being seen above that latitude.
Three years ago it was the brightest
along this coast ever seen. At that
time the whole sea seemed ablaze and
many visitors came from afar, one pro-
fessor coming from the Atlantic coast,
where it is unknown. Il
It became nuisance at last, as the
little fellows seemed to be unable to
get around Point Firmin, and as a
result, died. along the shores, leaving
a nauseating odor. The poison in the
phosphorescence killed fish, clans and
abalones. .l ztz
For several days no one dared eat
fish. and the japanese at White s point
claimed that their business was snni1ed
because Of The killing of the abalones
The. bay or inner harbor became
filed, with the dead fish, but a high
tide one night carried out the whole
mess, .
The phosphorescence is gradually
coming inshore now and promises to be
very bright for a night or two.

Thousands to Blame.
A Tourist In New York Herald
After having visited all the big cities
abroad and stopped at all the big hotels T
can confidently say that the ocean steam
er can take the prize as far as the tip
ping evil Is concerned OF course, the
steamship companies are not responsible
for this. Often the passengers themselves
are responsible, for in taking a trip to
Europe the exhilarat ton of the occasion
often loosens the tightest wad so that
persons give tips on a steamer that they
would never think of giving at, home.
It's a case Of tip all the time, and some
walters were pointed out to me who ara
worth thousands of dollars and own con-
siderable real estate In European cities
and all this was accumulated thru tips.
In other words, there is no place like a
steamship for tips, and it is nursed for
all it is worth.
Strange isn't it, no matter how much
courage man may have, when he goes
up against the average waiter, either on
a steamer or anywhere else, he cannot
look him in the eye without giving him q
tip Human nature Is a mysterious thing.
