' T r r- a— Cawtatas ItewwSwys B«rw»- SMrt to Takw TSmus Tcjac**. Hardly a day pnsees that Shipping Com mtarfoiMir Tillman does not have two cr three appßcnttons from boys who want to Alp m sailoea The most of these boys are between th* ages of IS and 18 and have never tawn oot of fe* right of land or seen • vassal larger than a small coaster. AH of these appiicatioSMi are treated kindly by Mr. Tolman, who, after questioning them an to their bosom and parents, their intan ttana ant reaaom for wanting to go to am, neutrally soda tbs interview by asaur fawr ta* would b* sailors that ba ha* no opportunity far them to atop aS present, but wiß bear them ta mind and gfv* teem tba first cheooe that eosnes along. Head rtses them to call again in a few days, but it te dos often that the chipping eommte- Stener ever bean from them again. Th* boys are anxious to see aometlucgof tea wrortdand in nearly every owe have good homes and opportunities far entering some kind of business which will prove more Inersttve and far score plresant than a mUor’sUfa The applications from the boys are so numerous that Mr. Tolman does no* pay mueh attenttaß to them now. He seldom has a thane* for boys to ship on large ves sels, as no sea captains wish to take teem. There te soscetimes a chance for boys togo to sea in the larger vereete white are bound on long voyages for South America or the Vest Indies, bat as marly all the vessels Bailing out of Portland are ta the coasting trade tbe ahipsii active have no use for bor* and win no* take them it they can help it. And yet, though tbe shipmasters will not take boys and gi vw them an opportu nity of learning aeaaaambfo, they all cum ptain because there are net to be found mere American saOora. Said one ship master fte other day: “I have not had an American sailor on my vessel for so long that I cannot remember tbe fast one. They are all Norwegians, Dunes. Ceresans. Nova Scotian* or P. E. L X Irishmen or other fareignen. It seems as if there were no American sailors afloat now.** When Shipping Commissioner Tolman asked thia very shipmaster if he had room on hoard his vessel for a bright young American bey who wanted to team sea manship, the roaster replied: "Why, roy dear sir, what ure i a boy to me? I couldn’t afierd to pay him M a month I bare no use far a toy on my ship. A num wbo eats of tbe tread of my owners mast be able to pay np for it, and his salt be sides." Cntii«®e dnnof is give® boys to team am mam hip on American vessels there is Uttlateancoof there being a great increase ta the number of Aaaerican wmiti This is recognised to be a serious question by tbe navy daparteMnt, and for tee purpose cf encoGraging American boys-to learn eremanship the apprentice service was in augurated. This is giving tbs navy an able corps of patty and warrant ofiteers, hot the enlisted men in th* navy are still mostly foreigners.

"Look at that boy,” tbe portly man remarked to a vfaitoe. “He thinks he ta having a good time. A small boy is enrely the drollest creature on earth. Wben I was a youngster, I remember that there were certain kinds of work I, considered play, and on* of them waa —inting. I was always cragy to paint teeny times I have taken a bucket of muddy water and an old paint brush and hare spent a whole half day put ting a thick coat cn-the aide of my fa ther’sham. ' “So with my boy Dick, the little chap ptinring the fence. He has always been cragyto paint He is enjoying himself now—you can see he is, and he will paint that whc.e fence, too, just as well as be knows how. I don't caro if it is a trifle smeared. He’s getting joy, solid joy, thicker than the paint cn his hands and clothes. “There’s a mean side to it toa He wanted to paint the fence, and I wanted the weeds pulled out of the yard. Sa like an underhanded rascal, I bargained with him. I told him that if be would pull all the weeds out I would let him paint the fence. He went through the other job like a soldier —he hates to pull weeds; all boy* do—and now he thinks he is getting his reward. It is a downright ttame to fool him that way. don’t you think so?” The portly gentleman chuckled again, and tbe small boy, wild with joy, went on plastering paint on the fence. —De- troit Free Preus Ci i ml* a th* Threahted. Crossing the threshold waa and so the mort critical period of the wedding day with all races, not even excepting tbe Anglo-Saxon. Tbe auperatitious fears of the many, always particularly alert on the occa sion of a marriage, culminate in this final act of the drama. The lifting of the bride over the threshold or her step ping across it is tbe signal in Persia, Arabia and among tbe Copts of Egypt far tbe sacrifice of a goat or a sheep. Among the .Aenens, according to Burckhardt, the bridegroom simply kiHs a lamb in front of his father-in law’s tent, and the ceremony, but for the running of the bride from one tent to another, is complete. Perhaps the purest symbolical act is that of the Transylvanian Saxon bridal pair, who seep over the threshold with their hands tied together. Some of these Transyl vanian customs are remarkable and most be survivals from a very ancient period. The bridegnxKn never wean the ahirt made for him by tbe bride ex cept on his wedding day and at his burial, jut as tbe veil of the Japanese bride becomes one day her shroud.- London Spectator.
