By All Means be an Editor.

An editor is the happiest being on earth, he has little or nothing to do, and his pay is all that heart could wish. His sancium, with it's Persian rugs and Fur kish carpets, it's costly rosewood furni- ture, its magnificent mirrors, it's beauti- ful piclures,ils complete library of splen- didlyrbound books, it's buffet stocked with the finest of wines, liquors and cigars which cost him but puff or two, its silver bell to summon an ate endant whenever julep or cocktail is wanted, and, in short, with its everything that human ingenuity can devise for his com fort and pleasure, is a perfect little para disc, where he sits or lounges and reigns young lord, with the world of fashion and pleasure at his feet. And then any body can be an editor--no study, no preparation, no brains, nothing but a little money to start with, and once start. ed the money pours in upon you in a steady stream, and the chief labor of your wife is to spend it. As for the la Dor of editing newspaper, that is mere moonshine. A mere glance at the col umns of newspaper is enough to con vince you that itrequires no labor to edit ii, and less brains. It is certainly glo. rious life, that of an editor; life for the gods, filled, like that of the lover in his first sweet dream of requited love with flutes and leaves and moonbeams
 "While not wave of trouble rolls
 Across his peaceful breast !"
 and that all men are not editors is one of the strangest things beneath the stars. True, there must be doctors and lawyers and merchants and shoemakers and pea nut dearers and the like, and all these callings must be filled by somebody, but there are enough to fill them. and why they don't become editors and lead the life of opulent princes is a thing that staggers us, But after all, it may be that il is mere matter of taste. It may be repugnant to some natures to be clothed in purple and fine linen and fare sumptuously every day, and of course it would never do for such nature 10 be. come an editor; the life of ease and ele- gance and luxury, and exemption from all care and toll and debts and duns, would soon become bore to him, and he would spend his nights in dreaming of ploughs and pitchforks and reaping machines, and squander his days in de- vising some plans for swapping places with blacksmilh's apprentice or street car driver.

ADserbugs, cut.worlns and potato beetles, that are known to them. A toad has been known to put away within him over n hundred different kinds of bugs and lilies, and then winked for more. Such services us this surely ought to be recognized, and such servant accommo. dated with both board and lodging in the garden. No animal IS less inoffen- sive or minds his own business more closely. This valuable habit may per haps be considered as "the jewel" which the toad has been said to carry in his head. The toad is one of our valued as- sistants, and should by all means be en- conraged. The common idea that to tonch a toad will produce warts upon the hand is unfounded. It is in no way dis agreeable except to dogs which desire 10 try their teeth upon it. In this case an acrid juice exudes from the skin which is disagreeable to the dog, but not in- jurious.

There were two of them hanging over the front gate the other night. She was standing within the yard and he on the sidewalk outside, both leaning on the top rail, and apparently as happy as two pigs in cornfed. He was saying, Now, my own little darling, sweet idol of my soul, whose image is ever on my heart "--when he saw the old man coming down the front walk, and con tinued m different strain: "Thc po- talo bugs haven't destroyed our crops so much since we purchased Paris green, and you will find also that cabbages can be raised better on a richer soil" The old gentleman heard it, and turned back, saying as he entered the house, These young people take more interest in agri- cultural affairs than people generally suppose.

How to Spend the Evenings.


 There is probably no question which causes more disquictude and discomfort between husband and wife than the ques- ton how the husband should spend his evenings.
 Every woman has an ideal husband and it is very easy to describe how he would solve this question.
 He would spend his evening with his wife invariably.
 Sometimes, after dinner or tea, he would sit and read to or converse with her until early bed time, and then go quietly to his peaceful couch. Some times he would take her out for walk, or call upon some friend, or to the theatre. or to a concert; but he would always be with her, he would always come home with her to an early bed.
 The real husband is not at all like the ideal--as girls soon find out Gfter mar riage.
 Why they do not find it out before is a mystery to me. There are plenty of husbands in the world for girls to look at and study. The breed is not rare, not difficult 10 investigate. But, somehow, every girl seems to think that her hus baud will be different from every other husband, whereas most men are very much alike all the world over.
 The real husband, then, does not care to sit and read to his wife Nor is he overfond of social conversation with her
 Sometimes he goes to sleep after din- ner or tea Sometimes he reads awhile to himself. Sometimes he goes out to bis club or his tavern. Sometimes he calls upon his friends,or plays at billiards or cards, or visits the theatre.
 But, as general thing, he prefers to do this unaccompanied by the wife of his bosom.
 In fact, il appears that he would pre- fer almost any other woman or man.
 What causes this distinction between the ideal and the real husbands mode of spending his evenings ?
 One reason of it is, that women seldom make careful study of their husbands. If two men are partners, you shall see them try to understand each others characters: do this. and refrain from doing that, in order to get along well to- gether use every effort to make things easy and pleasant; bring judgment. tact and self-denial to bear upon their com mon affairs. But with married couple this seems to be considered superfiuous.
 Before marriage, man will make any sacrifice to secure an evening with the woman he loves. After marriage, he ap pears to do everything to escape from her society.
 This cannot be all the fault of the man. Men are never all bad, nor altogether to blame.
 It is more necessary for woman to make herself agreeable after marriage than before marriage If she sees her husband getting tired of her--or what is the same thing, preferring other peoples society to hers--she may know that she has herself to blame. Either she is a mere surface woman, and he has had enough of her, or else she has carelessly thrown aside some of the Vaccinations with which she used to win him to her side.
