ACROSS THE OC:2AN IN FOUR DAYS.
Thr Liner or ihr Twentieth Centurf De-
scribed lir an Boalarer.
Before many years have passed it
will be poseible to leave Southampton
OT Liverpbbl and a.rrive in New York
in four days, stye a ,weLl known Eng-
lish ship -building engineer. pven to-
day the great ship-bnildidg firms
could build a steamer capable of
steaming aCTOOS the Atlantic at an
average speed of thirty knoine an hour,
but her machinery would be slo large
and it would be necessary to construct
such a huge veesel, that no company
would care at present to embark their
oapital in such a boat.
You see, to reach (New York in four
days a steamer would have ta main-
tain an average speed„ day and night,
of thirty Itribta an hour. To accom-
plish this we should have to equip our
steamer with engines of 1121,000 horse-
power, and, even if triple screws were
used it Would be necessary to develop
37,000 horse-pOwer on each shaft. Yet
such a boat ebluld be built. To carry
so inuch machinery the vessel would
be 030f1.. in length, would have an 87
ftbeam, and a displarsement of 40,000
tone.
LSuch a veeeel has already been de-
signed -on paper. Aceording to these
interesting plans forty-four double -
ended Scotch bbilens would be need-
ed to eupply the neoessany steam. Her
352 furnaces would Consume 1,700 tons
of 00111 overly twenty-four hour. In
one four days' trip ench a vessel would
eonaulme 7,300 tone of coal, costing
about Rf3,500. It would be advisable to
oarry 9,000 tons of coal in her bunk -
ern every voyage ina Cape et accident.
As I said before, ouch a vessel c•ould
be built, but no shipping oompany
would care to give out such a con-
tract. Nevertheless, we shall be able
to oross the AtlaritLe in four days, but
not with a vesaiel of this type. My
own opinion, and many eminent engi-
neers share it, is that higher speeds
will be attained. not try multiplying
our engines, but rather by multiplying
pressures and speed, and utilizing ev-
ery refinement ha the way of econo-
misers, euper-heatera. and feed -water
heetesrs, or, in other word*, tbe speed
of the future with regard to steam-
ers, will bo inereased by those little
but highly necessary and useful inven-
tions -the obtaining of a higher
steam -power by the oombination prin-
ciple of water -h44 boilers, by using
forced draught and the like.
At the beginning of the nineteenth
century twenty-six days was the time
necessary for a vessel eoreaeh New
York; new' tt is only five and a half
days' distant*, with a possibility of
doing it evee quicker in the near fu-
ture.

THE BABY'S OUTING.
When baby itu old enough to be tak-
en gut for an airing, the wrappings
rout be carefully considered. It is
found that the majority of infants in
their baby carriages on the eltreets
in winter are tot warmly wrapped up

feet, but far enough oft to let the

Small fistula, eneseed in woolen, can be

When the baby ,is taking an airing

that is facing it. The San or strong
light should never be allowed to shine
u.ptin the baby's eyes when asleep in
its carriage, as mac& harm results

CARE OF THE HAIR.
Once rnenthly an egg shampoo is
beneficial. It is cleansing, nutritious
and helps to. retain the luster and na-
tural ealouring of the hair. Directions
for egg shampoo: Setaarate the while
and yblk, and beat each with a table-
spoonful of water until thoroughly
mixed. Fitrist rub the yolk into the
scalp and then the white of the ogg.
Rinse with tepid water and finish with
cold. Never take hot wailer after an
egg ehamptau. If the hair is brittle
and harsh the yolk onlyAnay be used,
Better results &re obtained by use of
the white only Wheal the hair is exces-
sively oily,. When the hair ia dry and
lifeleas a slight oiling of the scalp af-
ter the bath is permissible. Great
oare must be taken that the fatty
matter is eweelt and pure. For this
reaelan vegetable oil Ls best. Cocoa-
nut oil is safest for general use. If
the scalp is tentie and dry a composi-
tion of one third lanoline and two
thirds carbialated vaseline, warmed
and beaten thgether, may be applied
with benefit. As before stated, it is
the exception, where any oily appli-
oation is necessary. .1•Vith proper
care, inaaaage and olcanliness the
glands abbut the root of each hair
will dlo their part.
TEACH CHILDREN.
Little children should be taught not
to sit sideways or on the edges of the
chairs, ur to lean la.aok in them or
to put their elbows om the table.
They ishbuld not be permitted to
play with bread or stray silaer, and
should be taught to wipe their little
mouths both before and atter drink-
ing, and not drink until after they
have eivallbwed wile they may be
eating.
Dolnolt allow the little °flea to turn
up their glansea or mugs to their
noses while drinking.
