signs and hints which regulate

WHY TIiIS BRIEFNES8,
The question is often asked {:
Why do 30 manly papers live 80 brief
q time in this beautiful world!
Some persons ofeyen accute minds,
who do not push investigation to
the wall till it screams out it's
secrets, insist that it is BECAUSE the
subscription il too long on the road.
But the reason is not there nor
will it be found in the fact that edi-
tors have to take position in their
columns either for one party or the
other in every dispute which mhy
arise between four old rnaids and
one widow ut ten party. Not
there. But it is found in the odito-
rial columns of the papers them
selyes. Tho first blow is began in
this way: "The editor (?) of the
Eastwood Paulpry concisely ~
and clearly q states his forcible (')
reasons (?) for advocating C) the
building of q storm shed to our
county jail e." Tho editor of the
Paulpry, under the whitening sar-
c.sm of seven intel rogation marks
retorts as follows: "IVe sec that
the manly (7) ink-slinger of the
Poplartown PATRIOT G)-that ablest (?)
of newspapers (D-is disposed to
question our sincerity! We would
toll the MAN (?) that if his sublime
powers C) Which are OF the high
est CO, and most (noble a." etc.
A. this the Patriot man rises up,
and in his next weeks issue has O
paragraph with twelve interroga-
ton marks in it. The fight then
sets in with the cry: "Let no in
terrogation mark escape !" and war
follows until one of the editors sue
cumbs to broadside of thirty (7) in
one sentence. Then he "regrets TO
announce that owing to lack of
support the publication of the
Eastwood P.ulpry ceases with this
number." Then he goes into u
country where he can't understand
the language spoken, and finally
dies. It must not be supposed that
this solution has been srrived at
hastily. 1t is based on careful and
prolonged watching of over thous-
and weekly papers, and tho result
ought to advance the cause of sei-
ence materially.
To day it is another Iowa ro-
mance. It may be recorded briefly
after this manner: Chapter Ia
young man, merchant at Waverly,
Ia, in packing eggs for shipment
East, wrote his name and residence
on one, with the request that the
person who SHOULD finally buy it
would write to him and advise him
Of tue fact Chapter IA young
July Of Now York eventually beea ~ @
the owner of the egg, and complied
with the request written thereon.
Chapter III.-Then ensued a cor
respondonce, an exchange of photo
graphs. ct I'D ge',,ts om,,e. Chapter

they are eggs -eatingly happy.
