MALAY SERVANT NOT IDEAL
May Not Always Understand, but Is
Consistently Cheerful and
Willing to Please.

I am glad that / found all in order
at Southampton. The docks appeared
to be well cared for, and the officials
on duty were calm and unruffled. Our
departure was leisurely and dignified
Luncheon was served soon after the
arrival of the boat train, and I am
glad to assure you that your commits
sioner, with whom forethought on
these occasions has developed into
habit. took full advantage of the posi-
ton of the vessel alongside the quay
In addition to myself and the post
card fiend, discovered that our pas
senger list was made up of Dutch,
French, English, Germans, Spanish
Swiss, Portuguese, Moorish and Jaw
anese. We can all speak our own Ian
guage with varying degrees of fluency
including the stewards, who are Jaw
anese. We communicate with the
stewards either through the officers or
by dumb show. l am glad to report
that l am rapidly developing latent
gift for the dying art of pantomime
Hunger and thirst are good teachers.
On the first morning, for example,
wishing to take my usual bath, rang
the bell. 1t was answered by my
cabin boy.
"Bath?" inquired. He smiled de-
lightedly.
May have bath?" I persisted.
He nodded, disappeared. and return
ed an instant later with an orange.
NO" said. Bath" To assist
the simple statement, waved my
arms about rather wildly, the inten-
tion being to initiate one bathing.
YAH" he cried. disappeared again,
and came back with blanket.
NO" said. 81 am not cold. Wait
a moment"
Springing from my bunk, I sat down
on the floor of the cabin, and went
through the motion of one sluicing
himself with water. 1 took great
pains over the matter, and 1 really
think it was well done.
Yah! Yah!" he cried. and ran Off
In less than two minutes he was back
with live hen.
That is the best of Malay servant,
SO far as my experience goes-he is
always cheerful and always willing to
take pains. He never seems to be
sulky or out of temper. He may not
know ones language, but he has the
gift of sympathetic understanding,
which is far more valuable in serv-
ant than the mere faculty of talking.

Prevention Of MiIdew,

Nothing should be stored in damp

which Is a vegetable growth, being a
kind of fungus, which quickly spreads,
and Is very difficult to remove. To
remove it from flannel ether is best to

cover with powdered French chalk
