Young Fritz in Crew.

Tie Sewall was commanded By Capt
Arthur GaffTy. and among the crew was
II Q. Fritz, nineteen years old, whose
father. William II. Fritz. a wealthy
lumberman of Berwin, Pa, sent him 10
sea because of his opposition to his son s
marriage 10 Miss Daisy Fair. an actress.
According 10 claim subsequently
made by Miss Fair. she and the young
man were married before his departure.
A few weeks ago she brought suit
against the father for alienation Of
the sons affections, and for mainten-
ance. His defense was that he could
not have alieuated the affections of
the son from the fact that he had not
been in communication with him since
the sailing of the Sewall. Miss Fair
then dropped her suit.
There was considerable interest
aroused in the report of the Hampstead
by South street mariners who knew
the Arthur Sewall well. and who were
proud OF her being one Of the few
American sailing vessels left. These
were inclined to believe that there might
be some hope for the crew after all.

Running the House Machinery.


Successful men, men who have carried
the many details of vast concerns, are 80
trained that they make their decisions
quickly and act. It is Q gift that can be
cultivated, and women in the home need
to cultivate 1t that they, too, may be
successful.
By being successful l mean that the
machinery of the house will run smooth
~, and yet that the operator may not al
ways and forever be planning clothes, ar.
ranging meals, etc. If women would
learn to be quick in their decisions and
systematic In carrying out those de-
cisiOns, the drudgery Of keeping house
might be halved in many homes.
Why waver until almost luncheon to
decide what to have; then again drag on
the question Of dinner? l plan those
meals early in the morning, arrange for
them, and their spectres haunt me no
more that day.
If have a forgetful cook keep tab
let and write my orders down. When |
shop know the needs of my household
and shop for those needs. / have learn
ed to know the things want when l see
them, and don't waste hours of precious
time dawdling over trifles.
In no line of work do l believe there
will be larger returns than to the woman
who can decide quickly and accurately
on household questions, and systematic
ally follow out her decisions.
Although have several small children
and keep but one maid, believe the
reason that find the time to read, and
to enjoy my own little home world, and
to some extent the outside world, is be-
cause l faithfully observe system and
quickness of decision in household ar.
