The Portland daily press., 1899-03-17

There are places in this city where the
old time system of apprenticeship is sJin
IN vogue Employees of the Mercantile
library are subject to it. When a boy ap-
plies for position at the library ana is
accepted he is compelled to sign articles
binding him to faithful service for term
OF years He receives a stated salary
weekly, and at the end OF his term of serv-
ice he also receives in lump sum s. for
every week he has been in the llhrarys
service However there are very few in
stances where the boys stay out the fun
time 1t is optional with the management
to dismiss an unsatisfactory hoy at any
time, and as a result not many Of them
reach the stage where they can receive the
benefit of the accumulated sum -PhilA-

REDUCTION TO THE "TRADE."
Brotherly Feeling of n House Paint
er For an Artist Patron.

There is a saying that two of trade
can never agree, but there is reason to be
lieve that there is more fraternity of inter
est than is generally supposed, An in
stance to prove this theory is found in the
case of an artist in the suburbs who had
the front of his cottage painted last week.
1t wasn't much of job, but it was done
very WELL and the painter was told to
bring in his bill.
Three days later the man of the house
was told that the painter wanted to see
him
Tell him to leave the bill and III send
him check, - was the impatient answer.
He was informed that the painter want
ed to see him in person, so there was moth
ing TO do but to show him up.
"Wells' said the man of the house
rather shortly.
Il hope you like the job" said the
painter with mysterious smile.
He was informed that it appeared to be
all right.
Il always do good work, said the
painter virtuously. but this here house
boss, l rather throwed myself on this
when l found out who you was.
So you found out who was, did you"
yes. When l went to the drug store
at the corner for putty, the clerk told me
you was painter and one of the best in
this country. l asked why you didn
paint your house, then, and he said you
had got your hand out now and didn't
paint anything but pictures. So when
found you was in tn trade l did my pref
test. And here is the bill-S1s.60-and
it ain t no more than right, as you know,
but being it's you III knock off the SO
cents
To the everlasting credit of the cole
brated artist be it said that he kept his
face straight and accepted the reduction
in the spirit in which it was offered Tx
change.

LIVED THE OLD DAYS OVER.
visions the old Church Brought 90
the white Haired Man.

He sat in his pew in the old church.
The music, the lilies and the bright array
of the young women meant little TO him.
He bowed his whitened head upon the
seat in front of him. The bl;vk stock and
the rolling collar seemed strangely out OF
keeping with the attire of the fashionably
dressed mon and women who sat about
him. He belonged TO the old school, as we
say Of a man who does not have bis coat
cut In conformity to the styles Of this day
and generation.
He sat in the same old church, down not
far from Second avenue, to the baptismal
font of which he had been taken in those
days when upper Broadway was country
road. 1t was here that he had sat and
looked over the prayer book at the girl in
the poke bonnet. She never knew 1t, Of
course, for she was unconscious of all else
except the voice from the pulpit. Perhaps
II she had been he might have told diff
ferent story.
He lived the old days over again. He
saw himself when he was young and
strong standing at the ohancel in brass
buttoned coat waiting for her. He could
see her now coming up the aisle leaning
upon her fathers arm. There were the
bridesmaids and the ushers The notes of
the wedding march filled the old church
The present faded from his view The
smart bonneted young women and the
Young men in the frock coats were no
more. He saw the bonnets of the olden
time, the green and baggy coats of another
day. The words of the minister, the
whispered II do" came to him again.
The man who stood under the sounding
board was preaching an eloquent sermon.
The gentleman of the old school heard no
word of it all.
Then there came to him the memory of
another day. The old house was still, and
women in robes of black slipped softly
about the darkened rooms. He turned the
leaves of the old prayer book in his hands
until the pages opened at a flower, pressed
and withered yellowed by the years He
touched it gently and closed the book.
ut will not be long," he said; lit will
