are undoubtedly hereditary whether
the habits OF alcoholism, tobacco and
unnatural eating are transmissible or

infant Is determined by the vitality OF
the parents-though not altogether by
the average vitality-and the powers
OF nutrition are the fundamental pow
ers transmitted to offspring.
We may not always be able to trace
family history in eyes and lungs, but
we can always find II in stomach and
liver and intestines.
The food OF the young dog, horse,
COW, ape and human, in common with
III other mammalia, is milk. The nat
lral food of the mature dog is flesh;
that of the others is vegetable. The

Now the stomach Of the COW plays

mechanically, adapted to this physio-
logical difference. 1t does not as soon
break up into small curds, and Is,
therefore, retained longer in the calf's

plains the difficulty of digesting cows

MAKES A PRETTY PRESENT
Fan Bag, Always Acceptable, and by
No Means Difficult to Construct
at Home.

Just to throw together In a hurry
and yet to accomplish the most dashy
and effective Of presents.
Here is one of the most fascinating
of fan bags for the young girl party
goer or for the matron who never
stirs without her fan.
1t is merely finished strip of Chi
nese embroidery on satin-the kind
ripped from a royal mandarins old
jacket and sold in our country as "cu-
rio" The embroidered strips run to
blues and yellows, and are about thir-
ty inches long. Double one together,
wrong side out, and fell the sides with
perfect stitches; face the top with it's
least obtrusive color in a plain satin
or China silk. Draw the bag with rib
bons of it's darker shade run through
casing, and put the fan inside or not,
according to the dictates of your con-
science-or your purse.

To Carry a Neat Tray.

There is no reason or excuse for
serving a patient with a sloppy tray.
No matter how heavily 1t is laden or
how far it must be carried nothing
need be spilled If precautions are OBJ
served.
Do not fill tumbler, pitcher or cup
full.
Never pour cream over cereal or
fruit, but put it in tiny pitcher.
Individual pots for coffee, tea or
chocolate are not expensive. They
keep liquid warm, besides being more
neatly handled.
Most important of all when the tray
is finally full, perhaps to overlooking,
nothing need be spilled over the edges
if the one who is carrying it will sway
the tray slightly from side to side as
she walks.

New York.-With the steel shield
across the center of the navigating
bridge badly stove in, the half-inch
glass in the three ports entirely gone
a ventilator on the starboard side
smashed and a breakwater on the
forward deck broken, the Provence OF
the French line arrived here a few
days ago with 20 saloon passengers
knowing little more than that the YES
sci had had a rough voyage.
There were few who knew that a
6O-foot wave had climbed over the
bow of the Provence and hurled many
tons of water against the forward SUI
perstructure of the vessel.
The Provence ran into bad weather
from the time she left the other side
of the Atlantic, and it was not until
the steamer neared this port that the
weather Gained to moderately good
condition. Until Thursday the passen-
gers enjoyed little time on deck Capt.
Poncelet kept the Provence going
along at pretty good clip, however,
and was only slightly behind her
schedule on reaching this port
The weather was very bad Tuesday
The sea was running high and the
wind blew a gale. There were many
times when the steamer shook as the
screws left the water. Capt Poncelet,
three of his officers and seaman
were on the bridge at noon, and some
of the officers were taking observa-
tions as the Provence dipped into the
sea.
1t was at two minutes after IL
o'clock when the officers were figuring
out the position of the steamer that
the Provence dipped into the sea and
a huge wave mounted over the star
board bow. The volume of water
raced along, breaking the forward
breakwater and threw it's force
against the superstructure. AS 1t

A Huge Wave Mounted Over the
Starboard Bow.

moment. She shook from the bow 10
stern, and like a spaniel threw the
water off and plowed into the sea
again.
All on the bridge were drenched.
Capt. Poncelet, standing on the star
board side, did not get the full force
of the wave, but the others, standing
nearer the port side, were wet from
head to foot.
The seaman was standing in the
middle of the bridge, behind the steel
shield and directly behind the middle
port hole. He saw the wave coming
and dropped on the bridge. The water
smashed all the glass in the port
holes. Mr.. Cortland F. Bishop, presi-
dent of the Aero club, who was a pas
senger, and who was told about the
accident, said he believed the seaman
would have been killed by the glass
had he not fallen to the deck.
The glass in a port of the officers
quarters on the deck below also was
broken and great quantity of water
found its way in. The steel shield in
front of the bridge was denied in
about six inches, and the port light
screen was carried away.
At the time most of the passengers
were in the dining saloon. All felt the
Jar, but there had been so many of
them that this big one did not create
any feeling of awe. The bridge deck
is 45 feet from the water line. The
railing on top of the bridge deck house
was broken and the weather cloth
torn, so that the water reached as
high as so feet above the water line
of the Provence.
