Naval Enlistment slow.

The Navy Department is having great
difficulty i'm enlisting suitable men for

men are lacking in courage or patriotism.
but rather because service In the navy

number OF trained sailors IL small. For
about "A fortnight efforts have been made
10 enlist seamen. but the number pro-
cured Is not so near SO great as naval
officers had anticipated. The pay or
the seamen is not high, but IL Is re-
garded as satisfactory; the real trouble Is
the fact that "A sailor cannot advance

abrupt angle along the coast south OF
New England. II is well to bear this in

capes, and the swarms of shad, trout,

This fact has been more noticeable with

These smacks by the hundreds anchor on

THE PEOPLE WHO DON'T READ.

There are plenty of people in this
country who do not read anything.
Newspaper publishers meet with
them possibly every week in the year.
Their stock of information Is eontin-
cd to the narrow limit of the neigh
borhood gossip and affairs. They
know nothing of the pleasure and
profit derived from reading good pc
riodicals and strange as it may seem
can seldom be induced to take even
their home paper. In many in
stances such people are the parents
OF children growing up in utter ig-
norance in the world, save what lit
tie they may CLEAN from the study of
the elementary text books of the dis
trict school, Not a single periodical,
daily, weekly, or monthly, ever
crosses the threshold of their homes,
unless possibly it is an annual alma
nae free at the drug stores. This
class of people are seldom successful
citizens. They complain of poverty
as an excuse for not being able to
take the papers, when in fact it
should be regarded as the strongest
possible argument in favor of taking
them. II | had to choose between
cutting off my paper and cutting off
other expenditures as matter of
economy, would wear the cheapest
possible clothing, dispense with to-
bacco, tea, coffee and every table lux
ury, in preference to giving up the
papers. do not say this because |

the papers would in due time add all
the Injuries commonly enjoyed by
well-to-do people. would be salts

the leading agricultural, live stock
and poultry journals of the country
and when all these can be obtained
for an expenditure of FIVE or six dol
lars per annum it is folly to do with
out them.
