Sten Savers

Dear Miss Thomas ! thought I would write
a few of my step-savers. perhaps they will help
others they have me. 1 now have three
dear little babies, the oldest not yet three
years and the youngest not quite weeks old,
and 1 certainly do appreciate anything that

kitchen cabinet or good pantry lot
of running around hunting up things. here and
there over the Kitchen, If they will set their
cook table in corner of the room and take a
good wide piece of dressed lumber, make a
good shelf above the table, at right height; let
1t go across the end that is in the corner
Above this nail a strip 4 or inches
above the shelf, letting the nails lack about
half inch or an inch being driven up. This
is to stick custard pans, pot lids, etc, behind.
The shelf is to keep all groceries on that are
for immediate use, buildings, pans and such.
The shelf and strip may be painted any desira-
BILE color. An olcoth or papers may be used
on the shelf If wanted. Have a piece of elias
tic o. tape or inches long, nail the wall
by your cook table, then drive a tack in about
every inch keep knife, fork and spoon stuck
In there, where they will be handy when you
need them. Under the shelf drive two little
loops TO hang your rolling pin in; under the
table have box to keep your wood coal in;
also your kerosene. Have another box near to
set your pots and frys in. This may be paint
ed and have lid on it. When going into an
other room for anything take second thought
and see IL there isn't something you want to
carry in that room, or something you want to
bring back with you, and in this way you will
save lot OF extra steps.
Where one has little children that have to
feed themselves, If they Will cut them little
aprons out Of white oll-cloth or rubber-cloth,
put strings at neck and back, and tie on them,
1t will save having to put on clean clothes after

long to wipe off the little aprons and tie them
on it would to clean up a child after meals

THE GREAT EASTERN ARRIVES YOREl-June IS

multitudes of people thronged the
wharves and roofs to get a glance at the
monster. When the boat was passing

was fired, which was promptly responded
20 from the four guns of the Great East
ern, and from this time onward, until
her arrival in the North river, it was
one continual ovation to the distinguish
ell visitor. Cannon doomed, steam
whistles shrieked, flags were dipped In
graceful welcome. people hurrahed, band
kerchiefs waved, and demonstrations OF
! Kindly nature came from every quarter
! AT the present time several times oauy
larger vessels pass in and out of the har-
Dor of New York with no attention be-
ing paid to their coming or going.

in the year 1860 to venture on the hrst
voyage of 1.-The most splendid ship that
ever floated in the ocean," but this was
owing, of course, to the novelty and vast
ness of the experiment, and to the seri-
Gus doubts which had been 50 frequently
expressed, from the very first conc 7p-
ton of the enterprise, as to the manage
ableness of such a vessel in storm at
sea.
During the time the vessel lay in port
she was visited by tens of thousands OF
persons, who gladly paid the admission
fee charged, to inspect the majestic
structure. Large excursion parties came
from all the principal cities OF the union
to view her lofty,walls Of iron, her stu
pendous machinery, and her marvellous
internal arrangements; and, in due time,
opportunity was afforded those who
wished to. witness her sailing qualities

awaited themselves of. including many
persons eminent in nautical and scientific

A great deal of interest has always
been manifested in the Great Eastern, the
first big steamship to be built, and upon
its first arrival in this country, on June
IS, 1860, the newspapers were fun OF ac-
counts of this sea monster" Its subse-
uuent use in connection with the laying
of the Atlantic cable helped to continue
this interest At the time of construc-
tion of the Great Eastern 1t was the
largest ship in the world. 1t was COM
pieted in 1859 in England and started on
it's trip from Southampton on June H.
1850. crossing the Atlantic in IL days.
The length of the Great Eastern was
CSC feet beam SO, depth As, and it, gross
tonnage. 1875. When this vessel is COM
pared with the big steamships of today
il can readily be seen what a furore
its appearance in our waters must have
created. The Mauretania and Lusitania,
two of the biggest ships of today, are
$50 feet in length, IS feet wide and 66
feet deep, with a gross tonnage of 3d.
50Ly
During the year 1860 and the greater
part of 1861 the Great Eastern made many
voyages to and from Europe. In Decem-
ber 1861. when political relations with
the United States looked ominous, the
Great Eastern served as troop-ship.
In 1864 negotiations were entered into
with the Atlantic Telegraph company and
the Telegraph Construction and Main
tenance company for the employment or
the Great Eastern as a cable-laying ship
In 1867 the vessel was converted from
&C Delaying to passenger ship, in order
to provide for the travel to the Paris eX-
position. Later II was again used for
cable work. and laid some of the most
important Geographic cables-across the
Atlantic, in the Mediterranean, in the
Red sea, etc. In 1S4 1t became coal
hulk in the harbor of Gibraltar, and IN
1857 1t was sold to be broken up, for $S2,-

on the 18th of June and was locked at 6
