A young man who had long and
dearly loved a beautiful cir! on
Warren avenue besought her re-
Gently to name the happy day,
which she did with such fond, re-
luctaut, amorous delay that it
would hardly have been thought
that she had made up her mind
what tho date was TO be more
than two months before, so soon
as she saw that he really meant
biz. They accordingly waited upon
the author Of her being, and, 60
ing down to their knees; acqualnt-
ed him with the lay of the land,
and besought Of him his blessing.
He was a practical and econ
omical old man, with mind ter
tile of resource, and when the
young man had stammered that
be loved her dearer than his LIE,
and had a salary of $1,000, and
that be hoped-the old man caught
up his trusty Toledo (O.) walking
stick, and calling his prospective
sou-in-law moon-eyed candidate
for the Presidency, and a diddle-
hinged unvindicated monometa!lst,
drove him out Of the house then
seizlng his daughter by her tiny
shell-lac car he awayed with her to
the deepest bedroom beneath the
attic roof and locked her in there.
| What was the consequence? ? That
very night the young man came

ABOUT EDIToRs-Every editor
loves to have his friends, and par
ticularIy his readers, call on him.
They belong to the same family,
as it we're. But when you call 10
see the editor, don't stay too long.
Editors are generally very busy
in business hours. lfyou have a
suggestion to make, or news 20
communicate state it in the few
est words possible. Don't offer
any excuses, or indulge in a long
preface to what you have to say.
Burt it right out; tell the editor
you wish him we'll, and bid him
good-day. Editors dote on such
men as that; they love to receive
calls from them. Don't argue
with them-don't try to do it.
They have no time for argument
while at work.
When you write to an editor
for publication, make it short
boil it down. Pitch right into
the middle Of your subject, and
be sure to stop when you are
through. Editors always like
something fresh and original in
the way of communications, and
are especially fond Of news. But
the editor must always be- the
Judge Of what is worthy Of publ
cation. OF course, every writer
thinks his own publication the
best just as every mother thinks
her, baby the prettiest that was
ever born. But the editor may
be so stupid as to have a differ
ent opinion. If so, it can't be
helped. Don't try to argue him
out OF his notion, if he is too stu
bid to remedy his dulness. You
may think You arc a great deal
smarter than the editor and this
may be true; but the editor may
be responsible, and you are not.
There is NO class Of people who
are so anxious to please a majority
Of people as editors are. There
is no class so coyetous ofthe good
opinion Of others. 1t is well to
remember that fact.-Erckaaae.
