Cash System.

The country press must adopt the cash
system, and insist upon pay in advance,
for every subscription before they can ex-
pect to prosper. The Butler American,
for instance, ina recent issue states that
since the paper came under the control Of
the present proprietors, the receipts have
not been sufficient to buy the white paper
on which it is printed. How half the
country papers manage to exist at all un,
der such miserable policy is matter Of
marvel. Hundreds of Offices can show on
their books two, three and six thousand
dollars. trusted out in small sums, over q
vide section of country, the collection Of
which, would involve cost equal TO the
amount involved. The persons owing
these driblets are generally substantial far
mers who, neglect to "pay the printer"
from month to month, not because they
are unable, but because the sum due is
small enough to be classed among conve-
uient obligations to be paid a an indef-
mite day, and out of an indefinite sinking
fund. So the proprietor of country
printing office-generally one of tho clev'
crest and most generous of men-shlrks
along, takes pay in miscellaneous farm pro.
ducts, when his wants are pressing and
calculates his profits by an invoice Of eve
ry dubious account due OIL bis books!
The reform may or will begin one day
or another. Let every proprietor of
country paper announce determination to
adopt the cash system with the commence
ment of new volume, and resolutely cuI
off and prosecute every delinquent who
neglects to settle within a reasonable peri.
cd. Subscribers may be lost, but those are
the very ones whose patronage is worth
nothing, and who manage to read papeI
at the expense of the publisher. No sub
scriber who is willing to pay will refuse to
sanction a measure of self protection, Sc
clearly just as to admit no doubt on tht
grounds of right and expediency. The
cash system is the only alternative between
comfort and confidence, and rascality and
a ragged shirt. Adept it-PAsJ~rgI

Playing Robinson CrusOe.

The Detroit Free Press relates a Robin
son Crusoe story of three young lads who
ran away from their anxious mamnas in
that city, took TO the river in an old skiff,
and were hunted after by the police for
some time. 1t says:
1t being known that they were in the
habit of going to Belle Isle, two miles
above the city, to fish, search was institu-
ted in that direction. An old Frsnchman
on the Island reported that colony of
some mysterious description was settled
on the upper end of the Island, but he
was unable to say who its members were
composed Of. Further investigation, how
ever, revealed the fact that the new colo
ny was made up of romantic young runa-
ways whose anxious mammas were in
search of them. They were very suugly
domiciled in an old fishing hut Of small
dimensions, the cracks of which they had
stopped with grass and weeds. An old
fireplace in one corner, with mud Chin
ney, was we'll supplied with driftwood from
the beach, and skillet and tin kettle con-
stituted their cooking utensils! Three
blankets and a becch constituted their
outfit. Or the walls were hung the fish
ing tackle.
When first surprised, the runaways
were engaged in the agreeable occupation
Of demoIlshing large pike, which had
been cooked in the skillet with no season
ing but salt. They said they had lots Of
! fun, and plenty of fish to eat, and we're in
tending to remain all summer if they had
not been discovered. The Oldest, only
about twelve years of age, said that the
idea had been put into bis head by reading
Robinson Crusoe. and that he had persua'
ded the Others off. Their felicity was COM
plete,with the exception that they wanted
a man Friday, to secure which, they had
contemplated crossing over to Canada, and
kidnapping small Kanuck boy. Thi'
was abandoned as too dangerous, consider
ing tho small available force, aud it wa
then planned that one Of them should re-
turn to the city and coax his sweetheart {
little glrl, to come and live with them and
cook their fish. This plan would have
been carried out had they not been found
They were returned to their mamma'
with colds from sleeping on the ground,
