Siul,t Of Sailors.

DR.. T. II. Bickerton has taken up the
question in England OF seeking to induce
legislative work to test the sight Of sail
ors before they eau be qualified as able
seamen. DR.. BicSerton regards it as be-
yond question that many shipping dis
asters have been caused from the absence
of such restrictions as these, aud he
urges all who interest themselves in the
subject 10 abate none of their endeavors
to promote agitation, although before
any steps are likely to be taken by the
authorities many more valuable lives will
probably be lost.
He says there are none 50 difficult to
convince as those who will not believe,
and the men who have had the forming
of the rules OF the road at sea are the
very men who hitherto have turned from
all suggestions on the eyesight question
with contempt. Meanwhile, DR.. Bick-
erton presses on the attention OF the pub
nc the following facts: That four per
cent. of the whole male population are
color blind; that about eight per cent
more have marked impairment of sight
from refractiye errors; that there is no
sufficient official test as to the eyesight
of sailors; that man may be subject to
any of the forms of eye diseases, and
may have any degree of blindness, or
may be so shortsightei as to be unable
to see distinctly more than a few inches
in front of his nose, and yet be at per-
feet liberty to become sailor. Although
there is a compulsory examination to be
passed before a sailor can become an OIL
ticer, it is in many cases a most inef-
ficient one, aud reform 10 this direction
is urgently needed.-St. Louis Globe
Democrat.

Rise Of the Mustache.

The mustache is becoming very FASH
ionable in France. Parisians have been
hunting for the origin of the custom OF
wearing this ornament, and the legend
of most popular acceptance just now
ascribes it to Spain. At period after
the Moorish invasion, when the Christian
and Moslem population became so mixed
tina. it was hard to say which were Moors
aud which spaniards, the pious spaniards
hit upon the mustache as a means oil
Identification. They permitted the hair
on the upper lip to grow, aud also tuit
on the under lip, an outline OF the cross
being thus formed. Thus, say the Paris
ians, the mustache became a symbol oil
liberty, equality, and fraternity.

Unless you think when the song is dore,
No other is sweet in the rhythm;
Unless you can feel, when left by one,
That all men else 60 with him;
Unless you can know, when unpraiSed by
his breath,
That your beauty itself wants provinr.
Unless you can swear "Eor life, for death"
Oh, fear to call it lovingl
Unless you can muse in crowd ali day
On the absent face that fixed you;
Unless you can love as the angels may,
With ths breath OF heaven betwixt you;
Unless you can dream that faith is fast,
Tnrough behooving and unbahOoving,
Unless you can die when the dream is past
Oh, never call it loving

hewsnansrs In Berlin.

The newspapers here, writes Frank
G. Carpenter, from Berlin, arc largely
ssld by women, and the small newsboy
of America is unknown in Berlin. Now
and then you sec a mau selling papers,
but the>greater part of the circulation OF
the journals is by subscription, and wo.
men always deliver the papers. There
are many queer things about the news
papers, and few of the Berlin journals
have large stats of reporters. The local
news is about the same in all papers,
and no one thinks OF trying to make
scoop, as it is called, or to have the news
in advance Of his fellows. The editors
of the morning papers leave their offices
at o'clock, and the papers are in press
at II. BY ~ o'clock even the printers
have gone home, and when General von
Moltke died at II o'clock one night
some time ago there was only one Berlin
newspaper that had line about it in It's
issue of the next morning. The an
nouncement OF the death was published
in New York and elsewhere in full, but
the German newspapers right here at
home knew nothing about il. The.
newspapers here publish items from their
contemporary journals which they shonld
have had themselves, saying that the
other paper says so aud so, and there is
no life in Berlin journalism. The papers
have not very large circulation and
they do not make a great deal Of money.
The biggest of them sells something
like 100, ,OO9 copies, aud this paper
makes S137, 900 a year and thinks it
does wonders. Men who write for the
papers are moderately we'll paid, aud
cditors-in-chief get from $4,000 to $4,000
year.
The Germans are good advertisers. and
there seems to be no reason why the
papers should not do better. Everything
under the sun is put into the papers in
the shape of an advertisement. And
there is a great deal of social news that
we publish for nothing which is put in
here at so much per line. Engagements
are generally announced in the news
papers by the parents of the bride and
also By the groom, and there are large
number Of matrimonial advertisement
~ vhich men and women state their
Q qualities and ask for husbands and
wives. Sometimes men advertise, stat.
ing that they have daughter whom they
wish to get rid Of, aud in one year there
were 400 advertisements in one paper OF
persons seeking better halves. Marriages
arc also published in the same way, aud
there is a fixed rate for births and
deaths. The Germans Nre very proud Of
having children, and it is generally ex-
pccted that son or daughter will make
his or her appearance in the newspaper
columns Immediately upon his appear
ance in the world. There is always num-
bers Of death notices, and the official
advertisements Of the city amount to
something. Advertisements of patent
medicines have as much prominence in
the Berlin newspapers as in ours, and
altogether the German is very good
