EDITING A NEwsrAPER.-The following
old but good article conveys good idea of
the pleasures and ease attending the edi-
ting of a newspaper:
"Editing a paper very pleasant
thing. If it contains too much political
matter, people won't have it. If the type
is too large, it don't contain enough read
ing matter; if the type is too small they
can't read it. If we publish telegraph re-
ports, folks say they are nothing bat lies /;
if we omit them, they say we have no en-
terprise, or suppress them for political
effect. If we have in few jokes, folks say
we are nothing but rattle heads; if we
omit jokes, they say we are old fossils. If
we publish original matter, they blame US
for not giving them original selections; if
we publish original sci. ctions, folks say
we are toe lazy for not giving them what
they have not read in some other paper. If
we give man a complimentary notice, We
are censured for being partial /; if we do not,
all hands say we are great hog. If we
speak we'll of an act, folks say that we
dare not do otherwise; if We censnre they
call US a traitor. If we stay in our Office
and attend To our business, folks cay we
are too proud to miogle with our fellows.
If We do not pay all bills promptly, fulke
say we are not to be trusted if We do pay
promptly, they say we stole the money"

Uses of Old Newspapers.

A writer, in Scribuer's Monthly suggests
several methods for making newspapers
serviceable in household affairs after we
are through reading them. We have this
summer tried the merits of wrapping of
paper in preserving ice, and have been
surprised at the result. Notwithstanding
the squibs jocular journalists have penned
out on the use of newspapers for bed cloth
ing, we know from experience that these are
not to be despised. They may not@be as
comfortable as your blankets, but certainly
they keep ont the cold. Two thicknesses of
paper are better than IA pair of blankets, aud
in the case of persons who dislike the weight
of many bed clothes they are invaluable.
A spread made of a double layer of papers
between a covering of calico or chintz ia
desirable in every household. The papers
should be tackled together with thread, and
from slipping An objection has been
made on account Of the rustling, but if soft
paper be chosen the noise will not be an
noying, especially should the spread be
laid between blanket and cOunterpane,
AS protection to plants against cold, both
newspapers are pinned over night at q
window between pots and glass, the flowers
will not only not be frozen, but will not
even get chilled, as they are SO liable to be
in the winter season. In the came way, if
taken to cover garden beds on the frosty
nights OF early autumn they will allow the
plants to remain safely out doors some
time later than is common. One of the
oldest services to put our journal to is the
keeping OF ice in summer. An ingenious
housekeeper recently discovered that her
daily lump Of ice would last nearly
| twice as long when wrapped in news
papers, and placed il any kind of q covered
box, as when trusted solely to refrigera-
tor. This is very convenient, since it is
possible to have the best aud cheapest re-
all kinds of glass after washing, except
table glass, no cloth or flannel is half so
good as newspaper and for a bakers dozen
other uses, quite foreign to it's primal pur-
poses, it is without rival.
