THE FIRST NEwsPAPER.-An ingenious
physician of Paris-Renaudot by name
more than two hundred years ago hit
upon a good idea for .'cutting out" his
more learned brethren, which he was not
long in putting into execution, to his own
no small advantage, and the great chagriu
of the brother professionals. His plan was
an extremely simple one, for he obtained
his popularity by the very innocent ex-
pedient of collecting information, and then
circulating news sheets among his patients,
for their especial delectation and amuse-
ment. But inasmuch as the seasons were
not always sickly, and he found he had
plenty of time on his hands, he was en-
couraged by his success to devote his at
tention more exclusively to the business OF
journalism, by providing tie public at
large with news and accordingly, in 1851
he succeeded in obtaining for himself and
family the sole privilege of publishing a
newspaper called the GaSette de France
Such, at least, is the account of the origin
of newspapers given by De Saint Folk.

the fine gloss observed on new linens, shirt

that they may possess the secret. and there

powder-put it into pitcher, and pour on
it pint of boiling water according to the
degree of strength you requirel, and then
having covered it let it stand all night. In
tue morning pour it carefully from the
drcgs into a clean bottle, cork it and keep
it for use. A tablespoonful of gum water
stirred into pint of starch that has been
made in the usual manner will give to
lawns (either white or printed) lock OF
uewness when nothing else can restore
them after washing. 1t is also good (much
