Men Who Make Journalists.

It has been remarked that very few
men who get into journalism start
out with such intentions. They
drift in accidentally and are prompt
as they develop capacity. Money,
wealthy parents and influence are Of
no sort of service in getting young
man place on a newspaper. There
is no business that is SO entirely in
dependent of these considerations as
this A wealthy farmer can easily
get his son a location to read law,
medicine, or push him forward in
almost any rank of life he may select;
but he is utterly powerless to do any
thing for him in journalistic way
To be sure he may buy newspaper,
and set him up in that way, but un-
less there is something in him called
Journalistic knack," a natural
knowledge of what to write and how
to write it, he will be failure in
that line, and all the money and in
fuence of wealth and perhaps pow
erful relatives will count for moth
ing. Some fond parents educate
their sons with the special view of
making journalists of them; but it is
rare that We hear of these young
men after a few years. Meanwhile,
some youth born among our hills,
having nothing more than common
school education, and the knowledge
scraped up in country printing of.

in the profession. He has the jour.
nalistic knack, and forces recogni.
tion because he has it. He gets into
a good position not because he has
wealthy parents to influence the
proprietors of leading newspapers,
but because he knows what to write
and how to write it. His articles &C
in because they supply adcmand
