'TRAMP STEAMERS' VOYAGES
These Crr.ft Carry Bulk of Ocean
Trade and Encircle the Globe
Many Times.
The bulk of the ocean-borns
commerce of the world is curried
not in the great liners but in the
host of so-called tramp steamers
that are ready to take cargo to
or from any part of the world.
They were willing to t-arry coal
across the western ocean in mid
winter during the fuel shortage
occasioned by the strike in our
anthracite mini's. They would
take oil to the far east , cotton to
Europe , provisions or coal to the
blockaded part of Vladivostok if
Hie offer was high enough. In
tact , they are ready to take any
thing anywhere when a fair re
turn ina ! { { ) or money is offered
for the services rendered nnd the
dangers run.
As an example of the wander
ings of one of these tramp ships
in a little over a year mention may
be made of the log of the steamer
Massapeqna , which was recently
in this harbor. She is a British
ship so far as build. Hag and regis-
tiy po , hut she is practically
owned by New Yorkeis. and rep !
resents the investment of Amer
ican capital. This is a record of
her recent sailing : From Xew
York to the west coast of South
America.ia the straits of Mii-
gellan , back to Xew York over the
same route. From Xew York
she cleared for Hie far c.it. . going
to China and Japan by way oJ
the Cape of Good Hope in ordf rte
to avoid the Russian vessels in t he
Hod sea. From Tokio she went
to Manila , from .Manila to Cebn ,
troin Cebn to Sabang. thence re
turned to the United States via
the Suez canal , bringing 14,752
bales of hemp to Bostoinind Xc\y J
York.
This wandering occupied prac
tically ! . ' { months , for the ilassa-
pequa left Xew York on March 21
of last year bound to the west
coast of South America , and ar
rived in Hoston on Thursday ,
April 20. Her next trip is to thr
west coast of South America , and
goodness only knows how long it
will be before she reaches her
home port , Bristol , England , if she
ever returns there. Xo impor
tant repairs have been made on
her engines in three years in
fact , no repairs other than what
has been done by her own engine-
room force , which of itself is a
tribute to the excellence of the
work of British yards ( she was
built in Snnderlaml ) in engining
such ships.
Some of these ocean carriers
have splendid records of continu
ous runs. We were told recent
ly of n vessel that was steaming
for 44 days without once stopping
her engine even momentarily , a
rather remarkable ' endurance
test. At a ten-knot rate , or say
250 miles per day , she would have
covered 11,000 miles without once
turning the strain off from the
A Warning to Mothers.
Too much earn cannot lie used with
sinitll children during the hot uciilhei-
of the summer months to guard against
bowel troubles. As u rule it is only
necessary to civu the child n dose of
castor oil to correct any disorder of the
bowels. Lo not use any substitute ,
but clve the old-fashioned castor oil ,
and bee that it is fresh , as rancid oil
nauseates and has u tendency to gripe.
If this does not check the bowels { jive

kept ready for instant use as soon us the
first indication of any bowel trouble
appears. This is the most successful
treatment known and may be relied
upon with implicit confidence even In
