A good story is told of the ex-rebel Gener-
al Forrest as follows: Being under the hands
of colored barber, the latter discovered who
his customer was, and informed him that he
had brother who fought at Fort Pillow.
"Ah," said the General, ''and where is he
now?" "He was killed there" replied the
'.artist." The General was only half shaved,
but quickly and quietly he slid out of that
chair, paid for whole shave and sought
some other shop. In reply to the curious
gaze of friends whom he met on the way, he
said, 81 like to have only half of my face
shaved at time"

NIGHT EDITORS Night editors, of all hu-
man mortals, are tn most to be ptied at such
times. called at the office OF one while
daylight still fingered ON The street. hut in
that dark room, where sat the man who was
10 inform, instruct, and beguile the pubic,
there is never much daylight, as the only win
dow opens towards the brick wall of the next
house, and it is necessary to light the gas very
early. The editor sat in his sbiriseeves at
the table, with bright Argand burner di-
rectly in his eyes. Men don't seem TO know
how to adjust light day or night. In the
daytime they flare open all the shutters, and
let the hot sun stream in their faces, and at
night have their faces almost against the
lamp. Then they wonder why they so early
in life have to begin wearing ''glasses," anc
why, after writing the brain feels as il it were
on fire. Well, pitied my poor friend. Tor
felt that suffocation would ensue if i lin
gered there ten minutes, and yet knew he
must work there until after midnight. Would
be an editor? Not for all the honors some
Of them enjoy. l would rather be Cabinet
Minister, or head of something, and let the
editor abuse me for running away from duty
as soon as it grows uncomfortable, aid threat
en- subordinates with loss of pay or dismissal
if they Go not continue in well-doing.-

The third point was. to combine and make the
