caught during the season to supply
the annual consumption of oil for this
country II is easy to understand why
there are stations for this work To-
Gated along the Atlantic seaboard
from New Jersey to Florida.
Porpoises vary from six to twelve
feet in length, and the biggest OF them
weigh fully a quarter OF ton. Ihelr
speed in frightened fight and their
beautiful leaps above the waters sur
face tell of their great strength; and
one can easily picture the task In
volved in drawing the heavy seines
with added burden Of n goodly number
Of these excited mammals making
their utmost efforts to break their way
to freedom.
The porpoise is the largest denizen
of the deep caught by seines within
the waters of the United States, and
for excitement the nearest approach
is the taking Of the funny in the
waters of Europe. AS soon as the
porpoises are stranded in shallow
water, the fishermen rush in among
them, taking good care to avoid the
slashing sweep of their powerful tails'
and hook them so that they may be
dragged high and dry upon the beach,
Strange as it may seem, the fish are
not infrequently drowned or sunoc-
ated before they can be pulled ashore.
This is because they cannot breathe
properly when resting on their sides
or their bellies.
No time is lost after these graceful
creatures of the sea have been landed
in stripping them of their fat The
head is severed from the body and
the precious tissue of the lower jaw
and cheeks is tried out separately
from the body blubber. The reason
for this is that the two oils are quite
unlike as lubricants, and haste is
needful in order to prevent the fatty
tissue from becoming rancid before
rendering Rancid fat seriously af-
fects the final product, and seemingly
trifing conditions bear Importantly
upon the ultimate suitability of the
lubricant.
At the fishing stations the oil pro-
duced is essentially raw or crude by /
comparison with the finished article !
and contains a good deal Of foreign |
substance which must be removed be-
fore the stuff is fit for the market
As soon as the oil is received by |
the refiner it is heated gently in order
to complete the cooking process begun
by the fishermen at the seining sta
tons. Up to this point man has done
his work and now time and Nature
take up the task. The oil is allowed
to rest for eight months and is ex-
posed during that time to the clarity
ng effects of the sun and also to the
Influences of climatic heat and cold.
Then it is strained or filtered through
suitable fabrics to cleanse it.

This is a good sized house accord
Ing to modern ideas, being 2S feet by
30 feet six inches on the ground; and
the roof is high enough to make room
for three bedrooms and a bathroom
on the second floor, besides all the
closet room any one wants-which is
making a strong statement, because
some women want two closets for
each bedroom and an extra one In
the hall for house linen.

are liable 10 get into the habit OF
doing things in one certain way until
we think nothing else will do, but the
tact is the extra lumber nailed into
the cornice adds very little TO the
comfort of the house
Generally speaking, it is a good pol
Icy not to add anything to the ex-
pense of house that is not necessary
either for health, comfort or looks.
A heavy boxed cornice is not neces,
sary for either health or comfort and
there is a good chance for an argu-
