A PRACTICAL JOKER.

There lived in a village not far from
New York City d gentleman, by name
Benjamin Top, who thought there was
nothing in life to equal a good Joke.
He owned a small store, and kept al
most every article OF domestic and
aglicu!tural use, and was thereby ac-
quainted with all the towEspeople, as
they were also well acquainted with
him Mr.. Top had played so many
pranks on the people around him that
he would have made enemies but for
his constant good humo1, and his abil
ity to soothe the parties irritated al
most beyond the power OF endurance.
The first of April was Mr. Tops
especial delight, and that was smart
child who could enter his store on that
day without being made victim of
some trick; so that from morn till
night of the first day of April his face
vas on a broad grin, and i t happened
that all those who sought to catch
hi;n had the joke turned on them
selves
A few years ago, as the first of April
approached, our merry friend looked
around TO see who would be a fitting
subject for a joke.
II must have a tirst-rate one this
time said he to himself "Who shall
it be? L me think ah! l have it
DIR, Scroggins yes it shall be he.
What shall | send-a love letter? No;
he looks too woe begone for that
After considering a while, Top drew
the pen and ink near him and wrote
as follows:
DIR. SCRoGGINs-DEAR SIR: Please call
as early as possible at Messrs. S & B.,
No. - Wall Street, New York, where yon
will hear something to your advantage
Then folding and directing the let
ter, he snapped his fingers with child
ish delight.
"I'll send him to New York on a
FOOLS errand," said he, "and have a
good laugh at his expense" D."
DR.. Scroggins, the subject of this
heartless joke, was bachelor arout
forty years of age; he had been living
IN the village only six months, and
had thus far gotten only very small
practice not that he lacked ability,
but he was awkward in his person,
and in his manners not very prepos-
sessing, and being shy and reservedin in
his disposition, was but little fitted to
push his way into society. He seemed
to be very poor, for he rented small
Office, supplied him elf with the sim
plest fare, and his lounge at night act
ed as his bed.
The first day of April arose bright
and clear; Dr. Scroggins, who was an
early riser, prepared his simple break
fast and partaking of 1t and arranging
his office, took his seat to await ex
pected calls for consultation, or to re-
quest his attention on some suffering
invalid. But no such calls were made,
and the doctor sighed heavily under
the pressure of disappointment,
"What can hinder my progress I
understand my profession" he said;
"in not a single instance have failed
to give relief when called to the bed
ofsufering. All, me If | only had
myself to care for, would be content
to live on bread and water till | could
gain the confidence of the people.

BE UP AND DOING.

There is no place for idle men
In such world as this is,
For who single talent hides
The ten-fold increase misses;
With busy hand and active brain,
Our strength we are renewing,
And if auglt worthy we'd achieve
We must be up and doing
We wait in vain for fortunes purse
To fill our lap with treasure,
And lose our interest on our notes
We sacrifice to pleasure.
In misery and poverty
Our folloy well be rueing,
So while the golden moments last,
We'd best by up and doing.
A holiday oncein while
Adds strength unto endeavor;
But who would prize jubilee
That lasted ON forever?
So if we have any work to do
And who can do without it?-
We never will complish much
Unless we set about it.
There is no room for idle men
In this great hive of labor.
Where each duty owes himself,
A duty owes his neighbor;
Beneath your feet, within your heart
The soil must have renewing,
So from your lethargy awake,
To-day be up and doing.
Old age is coming on apace,
How swift the hours are fly ing,
Soon beneath the churchyard stone
AT rest you will be lying;
Live while you live; each noble aim
Attentirely pursuing;
Fol if you would to honor rise
You must be up and doing!

Miners Pay.

A Scranton correspondent Of tho New
York Times furnishes the following
frank statement from a gentleman
well able to judge of the present con-
di'lon of affairs in the coal regions:
The great trouble here in Scran-
ton said an officer Of the Delaware,
Lackawana and Western Company,
who has been acquainted with the
coal business of the corporation for
twenty years, sis our population, en-
excess of miners for the work to be
done. The company, few years ago,
purchased large tracts Of land along
the valley, embi acing an area about
four miles in length. 1t sunk shafts
at great expense, time when the
prospect seemed to warrant ths belief
that there would be a steady demand
for all the coal that could be brought
out Of them. The miners aocked to
the region, and during the war, when
nearly all the men employed were
foreigners, they constantly brought
out friends and relatives until the
scarcity of labor that had for time
existed ceased and whom the panic
came in 1878, it was suddenly found
that the supply of coal would have to
be limited and there soon came COM
plants of lack of employment. Re-
trenchment became necessary, and
the company was compelled to adopt
a plan of working part of its mines,
and regulating the supply of coal
somewhat by the demand. A system
was at length arranged of working
the mines alternately, with a view of
at once keeping the mines in order
Tree from gas aud water, and of furn.
shing all the miners with an equal
amount of the work that was to be
done. The company's prices of 1871
were not changed at the time of the
1878 panic. They remained high un.
til January 1875, when there was a
general reduction of 10 per cent. In
September, 1916, there was another
reduction of 10 per cent. which the Of
fcers say was only made because it was
absolutely necessary. In march last
third reduction-this time of Is per
cent.-was ordered, and the whole
range Of men were then paid IS per
cent. less than they had received four
wears previous. The books or pay
rolls of the company show that the
average Of wages paid to the miners
during the last month was about $l8
or $40.
THE directors say they are not in
sensible to the difficulties which the
men have had to encounter, but say
also that they have done ,he best they
could to keep all the men employed
for part of the time, preferring to
distribute the work to giving it out to
a few to the exclusion of the rest"
