FAST COAGPosITORs. Periodically
we have statements of fast typos, but
it has not been our fortune during the
eighteen years we have been a men,
Der of the craft, to run across one OF
these prodigies, though we have dur
ing that time held " sits " in several
states-both in city and country
The following we believe contains as
much truth as most of them. We
have heard pump" Carpenter tell a
story of himself somewhat similar, but
this may have emanated from the fer
tile brain of either "Brick" Pomeroy
or Shanghai Chandler:
In the office of a Wisconsin journal
there is compositor who sets type
so rapidly that the friction of his
movements fuses the leaden EN- blems
in his stick, making them solid like a
stereotype plate. The only way to
prevent this is to have his case sub.
merged in water, and the rapidity OF
his movements keeps the water boiling
and bubbling so that eggs have been
frequently boiled in the space box.
Pipes lead from the bottom of his
case to boiler in the press room,and
the steam generated by the fast com
positor runs the power press. Ope
day he set so much type that it took
all hands, from editor to devil, two
weeks to read the proof, and it wasn't
his good day for type setting either

DIAMOND Cur DIAMOND.-A few
days since, countryman stepped into
a Jew clothing store in Poughkeepsie
and requested to be shown a coat,
vest and pants, The countryman was
told he could have the suit for $25.
Examining the material pretty closely
he found that the cloth was very poor,
Making a practical examination, he
pressed his fingers through the seam
in several places and left the premi.
ses. The enraged clothier followed
the man, had him arrested for damag
ing his goods. When all was ready
the clothier was told to bring the cloth
ing before the court. The country
man was examining closely the goods
which were in court, which he ascer
tanned were not the ones offered hin
on sale, but clothes of a more costly
quality. Taking in the situation, he
suddenly, and to the surprise of all
put his hand in his pocket, handed the
clothier $25, and left the court with q
$40 suit, which had been brought IL
to increase the amount of damage.

air to reach him, and let him alone
Dashing water over a person In a
simple fainting fit is barbarlty.-
The philosophy of fainting tit is thai
the heart fails to send the proper sup
ply of blood to the brain. LII the

thrown up hill; but if lying down, Il
has to be projected horizontally, whlcl
requires less power, as is apparent 8

BREEDING OF FARM SToCK.-Col.
Daniel Needham delivered the ad-
dress at the recent Hampshire Coun-
ty Cattle Show at Northampton, Mass.
Referring to the breeding of farm
stock, the Colonel took somewhat
original view, showing that perfect
horse or OK was as much an invention
as the improved farm implement; the
one as much the result of study as
the other. If the breeder fully un-
derstood the laws of physiology he
could breed just such an animal as
he desired. He stated in conversa-
ton that a noted sheep breeder of
Vermont had carried this to SO great
a perfection that he could breed
sheep having single lock of black
wool, and even locate it upon any
part of the animal.

The Initiatory.

All drunkards have to be initiated.
There must be beginning, and this
beginning must be the result of some
influence. What influence is it that
will induce young man to take the
initiatory? Is it the example of that
bloated, blear-eyed, loathsome speci-
men of humanity, that he saw picked
out of the gutter last evening? Is
there such a seductive power in the
sight that he must 60 and do like
wise? We should think not,most de-
cidedly. 1t is one of the most repuls-
i've spectacles a young man can set
his eyes upon, and his involuntary
ejaculation is, "God preserve me from
such fate" What is it then? In a
recent address of Rev. DR.. Eddy, OF
Boston, he remarked that, Sin assail-
ing intemperance, we oppose three of
the most active elements Of humanity
Appetite, Avarice, and Custom.
OF these our opinion is that custom
is the strongest. The one million
drunkards in the United States were
all made such by custom, and the Gus
tom Of moderate drinking will con
tinue to breed drunkardS as fast as
carrion breeds maggots, and as long
as the custom lasts. Those who Sc
duce the young to drink must be
moderate drinkers themselves. The
more repuIsive sots have no such pow
er. The vast multitude of youth il
our country who have not vet defleC
themselves with the drunkard'S bev
erage would every one of them grow
up teetotalers were it not for the pes
tilent influence of moderate drinkers
Excessive drinkers are loathsomC
and disgusting to a child or you'll
uutainted by drink, and such person.
could not seduce them if they would
Moderate drinkers alone are able t.
initiate new victims. Their very mod
Grafton and responsibility give then
the knack of entrapping the youth
Let the fact be well pondered. |
should sink deep into all hearts. Th
whole world should understand tina
every one Of the rising generation
now pure and sober as God mad
them, would coutinue so to the end 0
their virtuous and happy lives wer
it not for the contamination Of mod
crate drinkers.
Let moderate drinkers think o
these things, and ponder over thei
responsibility. They are emphatic
ally, the Observation-Disclosures, acting i
conjunction with the liquor sellers.
