INCIDENTS ON AN OCEAN VOYAGE
IN WINTER.
The Dutch steamer VVerkendam from
Amsterdam, had a smooth passage
through the English Channel and until
we passed the Scilly Islands, when we
met the long swells that make the ship’s
motion so pleasant to all but those who
suffer from sea-sickness. “’e were
seated in the cozy smoking room on
the promenade deck, when the vessel
lurched and mounted the crest of a
great wave, and descending, plunged
into a larger one, which broke over the
bow and swept every movable object
therefrom. The great ship quivered
with this strain. The stern was lifted
high out Of the water, and the resist-
ance taken from the thus released
screw. allowed the engines to pound
and shake until it seemed that they
would be loosed from their fastenings
and go through the bottom of the ship.
As the stern fell the screw whipped the
water into spray, and made the steamer
tremble. This was the unpleasant pro-
logue to a series of ocean storms that
made the voyage so lively.
Most of the passengers, except the
sick and those who had already experi-
enced one, were anxious to witness a
storm, “just to break the monotony,"
but had we foreseen six winter storms
(happily divided by short periods of
sun and_moon light) which occupied
the greaterpart of thirteen consecutive
days, and which broke not only the
monotony, but rest, baggage and most
of the crockery, we might have been
contented with smooth sailing. After
a few hours, however, when we found
that the ship was not expected to sink
every time a wave struck her, we be-
gan to enjoy it. We ventured out un-
der the bridge and in the lea of the
Captain’s house, into door of which
we dodged to escape the showers of
snow—white spray. Here we could watch
the ship plunge through the waves, and
dividing them, send Off from each side
loam-crested sheets of water. The
waves shut out the view of the horizon
from the promenade. or third deck,
above the water line. and towering
above us often broke and swept the
main deck from stem to stern. The
gale continued, but the clouds parted,
and the sun, which in that latitude and
season describes a small are on the hor-
izon, came out in time to set and color
the water with the loveliest tints of pur-
ple and gold. The wind blew the tops
of the piling watersinto spray and they
appeared like the vaporous craters of
miniature volcanoes.
We were watching the moon change
the scene to silver, when the Captain,
who had lost his dignified stride and
was knocked about same as any ordina-
ry mortal, told us it was going to be a
little rough during the night. Sure
enough we ran into another storm. We
watched the Swedish gentleman win
the little Belgian J ew’s money at ecarte
and retired, which was not an easy mat-
ter with the vessel keeling 45° . One
could get into the berth, but to stay
there required some engineering in
stuffing in pillows and life preservers
where they would do the most good in
holding one in place. Sleep might “seal
up the ship boy’s eyes and rock his
brains in cradle of the rude, imperious
surge.” but the creaking of the wood-
work. the transit across the fioor, of
baggage, shoes. life preservers and
kitchen utensils that had become loos—
ed, made such a din in addition to the
noise of the elements 'that it was impos-
sible for us to sleep. My neighbor had
just been baptized with the contents of
a carafe that had jumped from its sock-
et, when the leaward door was forced
open and a good portion of the sea
came in and made agrand cascade down
the saloon stairway into the under sa-
loon and completely soaked some of
the passengers in their berths, from
which they congregated in the saloon,
and inquired as to the cause of the del-
uge. The German professor of music
who was “sick, so sick,” was asked if
the ship was sinking; with a groan he
answered that he hoped so. .
Considerable confusion existed. Sail-
ors were kept sounding all night and
the Captain wore an anxious express-
ion. We surmised that he had lost his
bearings. He changed the course and
the sun came out at noon. After ob-
servations had been taken the Captain
seemed much relieved and when ques-
tioned said he had lost his bearings for
20 hours, and had he not changed his
ourse when he did, in anotherhour we
would have been on the rocks of. an
sland off Newfoundland.
But with all the tossing about it was
not so monotonous as one would sup-
pose. We had to forego the love-mak-
ing incident to a smooth voyage, but
,by getting a firm grip on the rope
stretched along the seats, and bracing
the feet against something substantial
we could read until some new mishap
of the new second purser would attract
our attention. Eleven days passed
without sighting a ship. Representa-
tives of nearly every country on the
globe presented some odd and inter-
esting characters, including a deserter
from the German Army on his way to
a land where the male inhabitants are
not compelled to waste the best years
of their lives in learning how to slaugh-
ter their fellow men.
As longas anyone would hold him
onto the piano stool the German pro-
fessor favored us with many a fine so-
lection on the piano, notwithstanding
his oft repeated excuse, “I am so sick,
I haf not 'some more moosic in me
left.”
The before-mentioned second purser
afforded the greatest amusement for
the company. He had never seen a
ship before he came on this one and
this was his first trip. He couldn’t
tell whether the ship was gOing back-
ward or forward. He believed every-
thing we told him regarding the sea.
The Doctor told him we had decided
that he, (the second purserfi was the
Jonah of the ship and that he must be
set adrift. A log was trailed behind to
record the knots run ; this he thought
was the means of telegraphic commu-
nication with Holland. "When he
heard the Captain say that at a certain
time in the afternooon we would meet a
ship that would take off letters for
Holland, he hurriedly wrote a letter
Why he was not lost overboard is a
wonder. He was groping along the
deck with an opened bottle of beer,
when he slipped and fell on his back,
while the beer poured out to lubricate
his passage for several yards across the
deck. Another time he was superin-
tending the transportation of a barrel
of flour across the deck when the bot-
tom came out and down he went as a
shower of spray covered him and the
flour.
At meal-time the faithful few were on
hand to indulge in the juggling, which
is required when the sea is very rough
to enable one to have a “square meal.”
Strips of wood kept the dishes in place
——some of the time. It requires no lit-
tle skill and attention to keep one‘s
seat so as to go neither under nor over
the table when the ship careens to an
angle of 45 C or more. The soup must
be held in one hand. while the other is
busily employed in stopping the salt as
it chases the butter around, pick up the
overturned caster. spread the bread
while you dodge the pickles. and catch
the cup of coffee that the st award has
dropped in time to save himself from
falling across the table. There' are
times when everything that we failed to
catch in our laps went on the floor.
Before we reached the Gulf Stream the
ship became enveloped in ice. which
disappeared as we entered the warm
current. The sea was comparatively,
calm and once more people coul‘dkeep
their seats without being tied on with
ropes. People who had suffered the
horrors of seasickness came on deck for
the first time.
Chrismas day passed gloomily enough
—however an extra effort on the part of
the chef at dinner, the jokes of the Doc-
tor, and the modest concert with which
the evening passed redeemed it from
being a failure. On the 15th day land
and the pilot‘s signal were sighted sim-
ultaneously, which caused great re—
joicing. The dangerous feat Of the pi-
lot’s boarding the ship was watched
with interest. In six hours we were in
the magnificent harbor of New York.
Having been boarded by both health
and custom officers we were allowed to
proceed. The Statue of Liberty never
looked so majestic and beautiful, with
a glorious sunset for a background.
Most Of the passengers “signed” them-
selves as being satisfied in the ship’s
register. Those of us who were good-
natured passed through the custom
house with very little delayand trouble;
others fared not so well—the reason is
obvious. Once more we stood in “God‘s
country,” none the worse for a stormy
voyage in winter.

A Little Girl’s Experience in a Lighthouse.
Mr. and Mrs. Loren Trescott are
keepers of the gov. lighthouse at Sand
Beach, Mich., and are blessed with a
daughter, four years old. Last April
she was taken down with Measles, fol-
lowed with a dreadful cough and turn-
ing into a fever. Doctors at home and
at Detroit treated her, but in mm, she
grew worse rapidly, until she was a
mere “handful of bones.”—Then she
tried Dr. King’s New Discovery and
after the use of two and a half bottles,
was completed cured. They say Dr.
King’s New Discovery is worth its
weight in gold, yet you ma ' get a trIal
bottle free at H. R. Hale’s rug Store.

THE WOMAN’S COLUMN.
It is selncwhat a matter for surprise
that the housekeepers of this section of
the country pay so little attention to
decorations of the window. All through
the \Vest the treatment of the window
is studied by architect and owner, and
the result is admirable. Someone vis-
iting in New York for. the first time in
fifteen years. after living in Califor-
nia. asked how we could endure such
straight, ugly rows of windows, with
little done to brighten them from the
inside. The effect of a street. on the
confirm y. where the windows are varied
in size and shape, and decorated with
all sorts of pretty plants, jardinieres,
or perhaps a very beautiful lamp with
gorgeous shade, is indescribably
cheerful. Of course, there is also an
endless variety of curtains, and there
are such beautiful and inexpensive
stuffs of all kinds now, that artistic
draperies are within the reach of all.
Even in the poorest homes there is
some effort made in this line. One of
the very prettiest effects is that of half
curtains made of the Japanese , reeds,
and known as the “shadow curtains.”
These enticing and apparently sim-
ple plans for decorating on “two and
Sixpence,” which we often find in art
books, and journals of that ilk, are
generally a snare and a delusion,
though it is quite possible to work
wonderful results if one has plenty of
time, patience and a little skill. A1-
most everyone has at one time or an-
other tried to do a little upholstering,
with varying success, but one learns
instinctively to distrust the persuasive
articles which begin with, “Get a few
yards of some bright colored chintz,
and a few upholsterer’s tacks.” The
result of these directions may be inex-
pensive in actual money, but as to
backache, bruised fingers and general
dissatisfaction with one’s work, the
outlay is considerable, except for those
favored few who have a decided talent
'in this' direction. We know of one
lady who never goes off on a summer
journey, even, without her little tack
hammer, but the proverbial impossi-
bility which a woman finds in driving
a nail straight, generally extends to a
majority of the sex. Notwithstanding
all this, it- must be confessed that the
divans of different shapes and sizes
which are so fashionable just now,
tempt the merest tyro to try her luck
at their manufacture. They are so
,pr'etty and so comfortable and without
much-real upholstering are so compar-
atively simple in appearance, that they
lead one on in the most- beguiling fash-
ion. W'e know an enterprising bache-
lor who proceeded to manufacture one
for himself, with brilliant success. He
made a frame about six and a half feet
long, by four wide, raised only a little
from the floor, bought wire springs
and a mattress, threw over them a rug,
and asked each of the ladies of his ac-
quaintancc to cover a feather pillow
which he provided, with lovely soft
silk, and thus made a comfortable nook
for himself, by day or by night.
Here is a hint for an original mode
of decoration furnished by one of our
authorities, in town. The creped tis-
sue papers which come now in the most
beautiful shades, would make a lovely,
delicate frieze fora bedroom, or one
of the Japanese or Indian parlors
which people are so fond of for their
summer cottages. It could be put on
with a very narrow molding above and
below, and the cost would be much less
than ordinary paper, while the effect
might be made extremely good. There
are many things with which to carry
out the idea Of an Oriental room which
are not at all expensive. The ceiling
and side walls might be treated with
matting, of which there are such 'pret-
ty patterns, put on in panels, the shad-
ow curtains spoken of above used for
the windows, and divans Of Oriental
looking stuffs, in the corners. Two or
three willow chairs, which almost every
one possesses nowadays, carry out the
idea very well.
That the subject of a suitable dress for
business women should be considered
Of enough importance to be referred to a
committee at the Woman’s Congress in
Washington, which committee is to
have a year to examine and report on
the matter, shows that it is really be-
coming a problem, the more so since it
is evident that the long street skirt has
come to stay. There will undoubtedly
be some strong minded and cleanly
women who will hold out against the
fashion strenuously, but we fear our
days of comfort and comparative free-
dom Of movement in the street, are
gone, for the present. . We rebel
against the edicts of fashion, and sigh
that the Goddess might have left us
the short street dress, if. we were to be
compelled to wear trains in the house,
but we shall probably succumb, with
the remark that a long dress is
more graceful, any way, and that a
short skirt looks so awkward with ev-
erybody wearing long ones.
This matter of pockets, which the
committee are especially instructed to
think upon, is a burning one also. The
continual recurrence of the bag to hang
upon the arm, or at the side, shows
how much we need some more secure
and accessible deposit for the little
feminine trifles, than. the poor, use-
less pocket so often hldden in the folds
of the skirt, till it needs the woman
who put it there to find it. We re-
member wearing a dress a whole year
thinking that the dressmaker had put
no pocket in it, and at last finding it
most carefully hidden, in an unheard
of place. And than men. laugh at us
for carrying our purses In our hands,‘
and tucking our handkerchlefs under
our belts.

After a bOy has passed his
tenth year his ambition is to
wear long trousers like a man,
while his mother knows that
knickerbockers are the most
becoming and stylish. Really,
it is not so much the short
trousers that the boy dislikes,
but, realizing his growing Im-
portance he objects to being
dressed like a “little chay.”
With this fact in View, we
have hit upon an expedient for
satisfying both mother and son.
We have designed a new suit
for boys from nine to thirteen
years that meets the want com-
pletely—A three 01‘ four But-
ton cutaway jacket With vest
and knee trousers. These suits
are sure to become immensely
popular, for is not the “cut-
away coat” a favorite with gen-
tlemen? The boys will not be
happy Without them when once
they are seen.
We invite you here to look
for whatever your boy wears—
clothes, underclothcs, hats and
shoes—ours are complete out-
fitting houses for the male sex,
and the only three Of the kind
