CHAPLAINS IN THE NAVY.

Branch of Service Kegarding Which but Little Is Known.

Beyond the main fa that a clergyman is always to be found on board a man-of- war the public knows hardly anything of chaplains in the navy. ‘This is not due, however, to the unimportance of the corps. At present every chaplain, with a single exception, is actively employed either on a man-of-war or at an important shore sta- tion. The secretary of the navy declares that the work of a chaplain is very highly appreciated on shipboard by most of the commanding officers and that the moral effect of their infiuence upon the men is noticeably good. There are but 24 chap- Jains in the entire service, and acquaint- ance with the personnel of the corps leads one to believe that the standard of fitness has been kept high by the appointing power. The regulations require that an applicant as chaplain be between the ages of 21 and 25 years and a minister in good standing in his denomination. In addi- tion to these qualifications practice requires the hearty and unequivocal indorsement of high ecclesiastical authorities, who are willing to assume a good degree of moral responsibility for the appointment. Po- litical influence of a high order may be used to bring the applicant tothe atten- tion of the president and secretary of the navy, but can avail very little beyond this. The chaplain, once appointed, ranks as a commissioned officer of the staff, messes in the wardroom when on shipboard and is entitled to a private stateroom in the wardroom quarters,

He wears no uniform and in this is the sole exception tothe rule which obtains on all the ships of our navy and applies to | all officers and enlisted men, from the ad- |

a

miral of the fleet to the humblest mess at- tendant. Nothing invicious is involved in this discrimination, and it is to be pre- sumed that if a majority of the chaplains were to ask for a uniform it would be granted. The chaplains as a rule dress in | ordivary clerical suits, the coats close but- toned, and ia blouse wr frock, accordirg to | circumstances. In conducting divine serv- | ice cach chaplain ts permitted to employ the order used in his own denomination and may also use the vestments of his chur. h, if any.—Chicago Chronicle.

Looking Indian.

Somebody dropped a stickpin in the hall the other day and had hard work to find it. She hunted high and low, and on her hands and knees, and with a candle spe- cially procured for the purpose, but it was no use; the pin was very tiny and unper- ceivable, its value being that of association rather than size or‘brilliancy. The some- body, after a final shake of the rugs, was

just about to give it up forever when one:

of the children chanced to come along. “Why don’t you ivok ‘Indian’ for it?’’ he asked. Before the somebody realized what was meant down dropped the young- ster on the floor, his head and his whole body lying sidewise and just as close to the dead level as possible. In this position his eyes roved rapidly over the floor. ‘‘I have it,’’ he shouted presently, and sure enough, right in the middle of the floor, in so plain a place that it had escaped no- tice, was the missing stickpin. The youngster then explained that ‘looking Indian’’ meant putting the head to the ground in order to catch sight of the smallest object between oneself and the horizon. ‘They do it on the plains all the time,’’ he said. ‘‘That’s why they can al- ways tell who’s coming. But it works in houses just as well as on the plains. Why, we never lose anything in the nursery ngwadays—we just ‘look Indian’ and find it right off.”’—-New York Sun.

The World.

This world is nota very fine place for & good many of the people in it. But I’ve made up my mind it shan’t be the worse forme if i can helpit. They. tell me I can’t alter the world—that there must be a certain number of sneaks and robbers in it, and if I don’t lie and filch somebody else will. Well, then, somebody else shall, for I won’t. — Felix Holt (George Eliot).

In 1847 the city of Carlsruhe had a theater fire by which 63 leves wero lost. This led to the formation in the neighbor- ing townof Duriachs of the first volun- teer flre company in Germany.

JHE HOME. Some Practical Points For Healthfainess In Heating and Ventilating.

There are two helps to a good and healthful house atmosphere (and fresh complexions) to be considered—freshnesa and moisture. Ignorance is apt to regard everything outside of its personal experi- ence as stupid ‘‘faddism,’’ or, more harsh- ly, ‘‘erankism."’ So these suggestions are addressed to the intelligent only. Dead air, like dead wood, has but little heating power. We have all endured the experi- ence of being in an atmosphere hot enough to produce headache, yet feeling chilly. That air was vitiated and dead and would disgust even the ignorant in its analysis. lt isa perfectly simple matter to change i the air in any part of the house, and a servant should understand the order ‘*Change the air’’ in such and such rooms as readily as to change the tablecloth for dinner. You have only toopen wide doors and windows fora quick sweeping through of afresh current from outside, and the thing is accomplished. Do not open one window to doit gradually, as the walls and contents of the rooms become chilled —a wasteful and uncomfortable result. Literally **change the air,’’ and do it as quickly as possible You will find the plan @ great economy in heat, aside from the benefits to health and comfort. Many houses are provided with arrangements for continuous ventilation, but even in these the quick, radical changes of air will not come amiss, Fresh air heats up so quickly, and its lightness and very percep- tible freshness sre most welcome.

Now as to moisture, the other factor ia + @ healthful atmosphere, furnaces and | other cellar heating apparatus are usually provided with arrangements for evaporat- ing water, but from neglect to keep these filled or some other cause the air of fur- nace heated houses is always dry, unless some special provision against such dry- ness has been made.

A good plan is to pnt regular dripping pans beneath the registers, and no one but the person keeping these filled will credit the amount evaporated daily therefrom.

With steam heat open vessels filled with water should be placed upon the radiators.

In handsomely appointed rooms brass ves- sels, as jardinieres or granite dripping pans, with open filigree brass covers, made for the purpose, may be provided. If ap- | pearances are not a consideration, any por- celaiu lined pan will serve admirably.— Ella Morris Kretschmar in Woman's Home Companion.
