peared very satisfactory answer to
the question as to what the cooks were
going to do with it all.
One of the principal items on the
menu is the homely spud, and in wire
bins in many places on the deck busnels
of them are stored. To peel them they
are thrown into an ingenious revolving
hopper that takes most of the peeling
off and washes them at the same time,
turning out about a peck at a time.
After they come from the hopper the
smooth ones are ready for the oollng
pot, but the uneven ones are gone over
by hand, their eyes dug out and their
wrinkles removed until they are as
beautiful as the nice young smooth
ones that had no wrinkles or deep set
eyes.

cheeks rolled copious tears.
But as one approached nearer to

parent weeping ii was seen that 1t was
the onions that he was peeling and not
sorrow that led him to add to the salty
brine a. few more drops.
