Three BIRTHDAYS Yearly,

There is apparently plenty Of fun
for the child in Sweden in the matter
of birthdays, but the parent can hard
ly be expected to feel the same, for
The children there do not confine them
selves to one birthday, but they must
have three.
OF course, the first one Is the real
birthday, and the other two are those
whose names the Swedish boy or girl
bears.
For every day in the year Of the
Swedish calendar has its own sepa-
rate name, besides the weekly names
which other nations have. Sometimes
if the parent gives the child a second
name or a first one that cannot be
found in the calendar the child loses
out on one birthday. And considera
Bile protest must follow, too, when the
child becomes old enough to realize
what he is missing.
In the German calendar every day
has a name also, but the observance
of these days is not at all common in
the latter country.

Famous Tramp Made Flying visit A. No. Slips Into Norwich And Out On the Blind Baggage His Mission To Save Boys-Thoughts Of Home And Mother The Strongest Appeal He Says.

Tramps come and tramps go. rid ing the blind baggage or jumping the freights in and out of this city every day, but a tramp with a mission to warn boys against the lure of the road is a rarity. Such a one spent few f1eeting moments here on Friday af- ternoon. This unusual parsonage was A-NO. 1,
 Champion tramp of the world, he calls himself, who since he ran away from his home in fit of anger over & whipping he had received, has been ceaselessly on the move and still keeps lip the practice. Friday he had come from Narragansett Pier,- stopping at Westerly and New London before com ing here. From Norwich he intended to hop another freight northward.
 A-No. As the only name by which this strange knight of the road IS known to thousands of railroad men, railroad and city detectives. men prominent in public life. and hordes of plain hoboes the country over They all appreciate the good he has wrought in turning many a boy back from a life of hardship, and worse, crime, by his help and advice, for he has made that his life work and, although his hair is plentifully sprinkled with gray, he is still at it and is still suc- cessful in returning to their homes and parents boys who have become afflicted with wanderiust, the desire to see the world that comes to every normal boy at some period or another in his early life
 Travelled 515,71o Miles.
 This most unusual hobo has been on the road since 1883, and since that time has travelled 516, 71O miles, and in all his wanderings has spent but s7.61 on railroad fare. He is native of San Francisco, but is in way a citizen of the world, for he is a place he has designated as his des- ttnation than he is anxious to be off again. He calls himself a scenery tramp, the kind that has no desire to finger for any length of time in any city or town, no matter how attrac- tive the place may be. His chosen cognomen, ANo. 1, the only name by which he is known, he took for himself way back in 'S3, when he began his career on the road as a hobo. Another hobo with whom he had travelled gave him the title, be sides some good advice.
 Got His Name.
 You're all right, hd,' said his hobo friend. as they parted. You're A-No. L. And he has been just A No 1 ever since. On the road, trav- cling as other hoboes travel, on freight trains or blind baggage, he dons a suit of overa1ls, but when he strikes a town or city that he wishes to see something of he discards his travel ing suit for a neat business suit, slaves and takes on all the appear ance of a prosperous business man. He is of French and German descent and speaks four guages-Eng1ish, German, French and Spanish-and by his linguistic ability he is able to con- verse in the native tongue of many young boys he meets who are just starting out to see the world drawn to the road by the lure of the wan derlust. His work is with that kind of boy.
