HOW A PAPER IS MADE..

SPRAY, how is 4 newspaper madeP" iH

But 20 answer il fully, my dear s-.,
We're rather Il difficult task;
And yet in bantefing way ifrs lar
As the whippowiil sings In the glade,
I'll venture bit of a lay
TO tell how a paper Is made. 'a1aill
An editor sits at his desk if
And pOnders the things that appear
To be claiming the thoughts of the
world
Things solemn, ana comic and queer
Aud when he has hit on a theme y5r
lie judges il well TO parade,
He writes, and he writes, and he writes,
And that's how a paper Is made. 5sr8
An editor sits at his desk gs So Ir-
And puzzles his brain to make out

It is hard to tell what it's about.
Exchanges are lying around r..f sL
While waiting dispatches delayed,
He clips, and he clips, and he clips,
And that's how Il paper Is made. H
An editor out In town,
o.. In search of The things that are new
The things that the people have done,
Goes peering aud prying about, flH..
For items of many a grade
He trarnps, and lie tramps, and nc
tramps, HlHn1 sfns
And that's how 9. paper is made.
And all that these workers prepare, sar
Of every conceivable stripe,

In short, when the type Is all set, g.s,.
And errors cleared up, more or less,

Saving Money.

The possession of a few dollars
often makes al the difference. be-
tween happiness and misery, and no
man, especially with q family de-
pendent upon him, can be truly in
dependent unless he has a few dol
lars reserved for the time of need.
While extreme carefulness as TO the
expenditure Of money viii make a
rich man poor, a wise economy will
almost as certainly make q poor
man rich, or, at least, make him, to
a considerable extent, independent
Of the eaprices of employers and Of
the common yicissItudes of life.
Nothing is more important to the
poor man than the habit Of saving
something; but his little hoard will
soon begin to groW at a rate which
viii surprise and crafty him. Ey-
cry working man ought to have an
account in some savings bank, and
should add to it every week during
which he has full employment, even
if the addition is but a dollar at
time, If he does this, be WlH soon
find the dollar growing into tens.
and these tens into hundreds, and
in little time will be in. possession
of sum which is constantly Weld
ing an addition TO bis income.
which secures him q reserve fund
whenever one is needed, and which
win enable him 10 do many things,
which, without money, le would be

The Postma ster- General desires to
control the telegraph. Faithfulness over
the mnjls might be admitted as reason
why he should be made ruler over the
telegraphs. But besides all the general
objections to the scheme, there nro very
special reasons why Mr.. Creswell should
not be permitted to enlarge his powers
Here is ono Of them: In his estimates
for the fiscal year ending with June. he
puts down for wrapping paper $50, 900,
and for twine $685. We dislike to
intimate that there is swindle in this
thing. But il it had occurred in the ao-
counts of the County Court House,
should we not all have said, Lo, it is u
swindle? If Mr.. Creswell were q Cor
dian or Davenport brother, how could
he use $685. worth of twine to tie up
only $4,000 worth of wrapping paper? ?
If there is wrapping paper enough, there
must be too much twine. II all this
twine is needed, there must be too little
wrapping paper. We should really like
to have Mr. Orcswell explain, and VIC
should be inclined to insist upon his ex-
planning before he was empowered to
buy all the telegraph supplies for the
whole country. How much plaster, how
many window shades, how much carpet
there was in the Court House, we have
often been reminded with much asperi-
ty. But whore are Oreswell's critics?

so thinned tue population of the British
Islands that humanity has value, the
coroner, therefore, suggested the pro-
priety OF having the rudlments of physi-
ology taught in the public schools, 30
that the rising generation might avoid
those errors aud abuses which unnecessa-
rily destroy 30 many lives.
