SHIPS THAT FATTEN SAILORS
Modern "Tankers" Are Now Blamed
for Added Weight Taken On
by the Seamen.

Shipping experts continue to argue
regarding the advantages Of oil fuel
over coal. AT present the question
is occupying the attention Of medical
men.
The adverse effect of oil fuel upon
such surfaces as steel, canvas. rope
and others shipping accessories are
widely known; ships doctors are now
divided on the question as to whether
II Is harmful or beneficial In its effect
upon sailors, writer in London Tit
Bits states.
Sailors ON oll-fed vessels are fatter
ana plumper than those who work on
c0a-fed ships. Some naval surgeons
declare that the fattening effect Is pro-
duced by the slight fumes exuded by
the dormant oil fuel; others ridlcule
the suggestion, and maintain that tho
former are fat simply because they
have less work to do.
"COaling ship" Is one of the finest
exercises In the world for reducing
superfluOus flesh. It Is hard work that
has to be maintained at high speed all
day. Ships vie with each other in get
ting their coal aboard in record time,
and even after the operation is finished
the sailors still have a few more
ounces of avolrdupois to work off in
cleaning up the mess below decks.
Usually three days are occupied in
cleaning vessel after bout Of Coal
ship" On the other hand, oll-fuel
ships perform the task in about three
hours.
Doctors are asking themselves: "Is
the fat healthy fat, or an injurious
parasitic growth?" If a hammock Is
splashed with oil fuel, all the scrub
bling and boiling in the world will not
prevent hole from appearing in it
and If 1t eats through double-ply can.
vas, what will oil fuel accomplish In
the case of human beings?

after two or three voyages they begin
