COST OF OCEAN GREYHoUNDE.

VIII Bring About New Tendency
|. in Transatlantic Service.
One of the most striking features Tn
connection with the North Atlantic
shipping trade during the last ten or
twelve years has been the great In.
crease In the cost Of fast steamships.
says the London Times. In 1899 the
Augusta Victoria cost about 100000.
The Deutschland of the Hamburg
American Company cost s550000 and
the Kaiserin Augusta Victoria nearly
100000. The Mauretania and Lust
tania cannot have cost much less than
s1,40o,000 each, and the two new
giant vessels which are being built
for the White Star Line service be-
tween Southampton and New York
will probably cost nearly as much.
1t IL somewhat curious in connection
with this point that the Hamburg
American company should be able to
obtain consistently better results than
the Norddeutscher Lloyd. and perhaps
one explanation Of this is to be found
in the fact that the fleet of the Ham
burg-American company consists main.
lyl of the intermediate type. whereas
the feet Of the North German Lloyd.
like that of the Cunard company. con-
tains high percentage of vessels OF
the express type. The theory used
to be held that the larger the steamer
the greater the profit, but there ap-
pears to be limitation to the appli.
cation Of this theory in the case of
the large fast vessels which have been
recently introduced. 1t is not incon.
ceivable that the general tendency Of
the trade will in future lie In the d.
rection of improving the accomoda.

lean music Is more and more making
way for itself. A good deal Of this
music. 1t is true. is still composed of
Coon Songs" and Rag Time" pieces.
and very often an Insult to an educat-
ed musical ear But good music is al.
80 coming to the front. Ten years ago
1t was not considered possible in Eu-
rope that a musical composer could
be born In America. American inven-
tive genius. American machinery,
American farming methods. American
commerce and trade-those were un-
deniable facts of respectable proper
lions. but American music? The day
of really great and distihctively
American musical composition is still
In the future. American composers
have attempted symphony and ora
torio. but their works rest on dusty
shelves. AS matter of fact only one
American firm has undertaken to pub
lish these works.
The rendering of musical compost
lions, however, in America also. is on
a very high plane. In instrumental
music musicians of the 'Teutonic and
Slavic races predominant, though
there is no lack of American perform
ers also. instrumental music has
reached such a high degree of perfec-
ton that the beginner, striving to
reach the pinnacle of fame, finds al
most insuperable difficulties. Thus
FAR American performers seem to be
most successful in vocal music. The
time when italian singers monopolized
the field is past. German and Ameri-
can singers, male and female have of
late gained great repute in this field.
Orchestral music likewise has reached
high degree of perfection and is lib
orally patronized by all classes of the
people. and as might be expected un-
der the circumstances, the building OF
musical instruments of all kinds has
here reached stage of perfection ex-
ceeded nowhere else. But In the field
of musical composition. especially in
popular song. tire Is still wide and
virgin field awaiting cultivation and
development.
What we Americans need and
wherein we differ from continental
European nations to our disadvantage
Is the social, school and congregations
al cultivation of music. At social
gatherings of young Americans you
seldom hear good part singing in
which all, or the majority. join. Bring
Ing serenade with really good. sing
Ing is a rare thing. Not so in Europe.
There one can. of an evening, often
hear good quartet singing and will be
surprised to learn that the singers are
workingmen. Our public schools and
academies also have not fostered vo-
cal music as they should have done,
though 1t seems that in this partic-
ular things are changing for the bet
ter. When music shall be appreciated
and understood in the home. school
and church. then may we hope to see
composers and great artists in our
midst. and when we have them they
will be valued.

Decimal. and Duodecim.l..

Herbert Spencer offered character
istically original system of reckoning.
He chung to the duodecimal system,
mainly because twelve can be divided
by three and four as ten cannot. But
he suggested that all the advantages
of both systems might be combined by
making twelve the basis Of calculation,
inyenting two new digits to take tho
places Of ten and eleven and making
twelve times twelve the hundred.
Spencer scornfully remarked that the
decimal system rests solely on the fact
that man has ten fingers and ten toes.
II he had had twelve there never
would have been any dificulty."

Housewives can give their tired feet

of the high and low stool.
First the high sto.. 1t should be

saucepan or doing such little odd
things around the cook stove. Is there
any reason known to culinary science
why such work should not be done
with long spoon from the comfort
able height Of the tall stool? The
little girls in the cooking school are
not required to stand at their work
any more than are the scholars in the
day school. They sit down to it, and
the toll is lessened to most appreci-
able extent by that restful position.
and there is no damage done to the
contents of the saucepan by reason of
the stirring being carried on from a
high stool instead of in the usual way
of the housewife.
Dishwashing can be done as we'll
