An EDITORS DREAM.

He fell asleep, after a time, and
10 be dreamed again. And it
eeemed to hin IN o vision that, hav-
ing armed himself With certain pa
pers and books, he turned his steps
once more toward the place and
knocked at the gate.
'Hello, IS that you again z" said
Peter. NWhst do you wish :"
aLet these persons again come
forth, replied the editor, and Peter
this time made them all pass
through the gate and stand outside.
They came as before, and uttered
the samo cries as before.
"Why didn't you notice that big
egg sent you ?" yelled the first.
FGt was rotten," replied the sdi-
tor. ..
9Why didn't you write up my
soda fountain ?" cried the druggist.
"You had your tickets printed at
the other Office" calmly replied the
local man.
"Why did yeu write about old
Temlinson's hens and never speak
of my new gats?" shouted the
third.
"Old Tomlinson paid for his ad-
vertising and you didn't, Here's
the BILL" said the editor.
"Why did you spell my name
wrong in the programme" groaned
the local talent,
"Taks q look at this manuscript
of yours and see for yourself" said
the editor, with a grim smile.
The rest of the company yelled
their complaints in unison, and the
editor calmly sorted out series OF
bills and unpaid subscriptions, and
presented each with one; and it
was so that when they had received
them, they all tore their hair and
rushed violently down a steep place
into the sea, and St. Peter, taking
the editor calmly by the hand, let
him within the gate and said:
GCome, friend these chaps man
aged to slip through here in spite Of
us, but thanks to the press, we now
know what sort of fellows they are.
Come in and stay; we need a few
such men as you in here"

LONGEVITY.

From the days of Pliny to our
own we have accounts of persons
living ten, twenty, thirty and even
forty or more years beyond a CEN
tury. Though the accuracy of the
records is in such cases open to
doubt, yet there are ample reasons
for beliving that many persons have
rounded out their full hundred years
of life.
Though life up to such an extreme
age may not seem partiularly deslr-
able, it is, nevertheless, true that
a virtuous old age, with the passions
dead, the ambitions satiated, and its
work all done; with pleasant mem
ories of the past, calm and hopeful
anticipations of the future, and quiet
contentment of each day as it
passes-may be full of as real hap
piness as any previous periods In
the lives Of men.
Men now generally die before
their time. .. .
Indeed, some scientists affirm that,
as the normal limit of animal life
seems to be at five times the years
of the growth, man should live to
an age of five times twenty years.
With this view, the last twenty is
the proper period of gradual decay
or old age.
The tendancy to early decay, or
to more violent termination of life,
is probably determined by the rate at
which vital force is expended. Per
sons who use 1t up faster than it is
fully supplied, especially at the pc
Rod when much Of it should be ex-
pended in building up and consoli-
dating the system, cannot expect
long life.
It may be expended by vicious
indulgence, habitual care, anxiety
and fret, and by overwork, whether
of the body or the brain.
At the same time, it must be ad-
nitted that longevity seems often
