MAKSCLE, PREJUOICED, AGAINST THEM. Superstitions die hard, and nautical superstitions die hardest of anv. Cer tainly very few ships remain in port on a Friday for purely sentimental reasons, but the dislike to carrying a parson on board is still rampant among merchant skippers. Martin in the Church Gazette, remarks that he once wished the commander of a big liner a pleasant voyage. "Pleasant voyage!" he retorted, savagely; "that's likely, ain't it.

when there's three parsons shipped and one of them a bishop?" Here his feelings became too much for him and he called to the steward to refill the glasses. I was not surprised, says Mr. West, to hear that a cylinder cover blew off in the bay. Sitting in my club one night, a skipper came in. I shook him by the hand and hoped he had had a good voyage.

"Voyage!" he replied. In heartrending tones; "don't call it that. I've never had such a dog's time In my life. Got two parsons aboard at Sydney and another at King George's sound, and blame me if two missionaries did not join at Sooner than sail with five parsons again I'll break an arm or a leg and get put ashore!" "But to see the prejudice in all its glory one must talk to the masters of ocean tramps," continues Martin West. "Once a case was quoted to me as showing great presence of mind and seamanship on the part of the skipper.

The ship had a couple of parsons aboard and, as the crew expected, the voyage was disastrous. The misfortunes culminated in the decks being swept and three men washed overboard. One was a parson, who ought to have been below. After this the weather suddenly abated and the ship came safe to land. I remarked that the parson ought to have been under hatches.

replied the old sea-dog, who told me, 'Cap'n is a good man. He talked it over with the mates and there seemed nothing else to be done. So they got him up on purpose. Better one man than a whole company. and the parson ought to have been prepared, while it warn't in reason that the whole crew should be.

Good for Rubber Men. The present winter promises to be a record-breaker In respect to the rub ber footwear trade. The exceptional storms we have had came so early in the season as to clear the stocks of dealers and manufacturers to a degree seldom known in the past, insuring a crop of supplementary orders which will make the production for the year probably the largest ever known. Not only will it be unnecessary for manu facturers to reduce prices in order to dispose of their production, but all classes of dealers have profited, and likely to profit further by the fact that the stringency of the weather has made buyers of rubbers willing to pay standard prices without hesitation.

Axtell. World's Business Language. It is interesting at this time of accomplished imperial penny postage and prospective pan-Anglo-Saxon postage at the same rate, to know that two-thirds of all the letters mailed in all the postoffices of the world are English. There are about 600,000,000 people who speak colloquially the ten or twelve chief modern languages, and of these some 150,000,000, less than one-third of all, speak English. About people speak Russian, 75,000,000 Spanish, 85,000,000 French, 45,000,000 Spanish, 35,0000,000 Italian and Portuguese, and the balance Hungarian, Dutch, Polish, Flemish, Bohemian, Gaelic, Roumanian, Swedish, Finnish, Danish and Norwegian.

But all these people together write only half as many posted letters as the English. The Russians, Spanish, Portuguese and Italians, for instance, include many illiterate people who never write at all. The Russian postoffice handles only one-tenth as many letters as the British, although there are more than twice as many people in Russia as in Great Britain. Of course, too, most of the business letters for British India are written in English, though few of the 300,000,000 population either speak or write the tongue. Telephone to Hospital Bedd, Telephones are to be placed in the wards of one of the Paris hospitals within reach of the bed-ridden patients, so as to enable them to communicate with their friends outside.
