Dating Papers and Magazines
Ahead.

New York Tribune.l
Why should a weekly illustrated
paper issued on February 8 bear the
date of February 10? And why should
the March magazines appear during
the first week of February Is there
anything gained by the fictitious dates2
Publishers used to suppose that rural
subscribers were imposed upon, and
that they imagined the publication 10
be the most enterprising which reach
ed them most ahead Of time. In this
age Of fast mails and general intelli
gence nobody is deceived by an erro-
neous date. A subscriber knows Just
how long it takes a paper to reach
him, and o wrong date only serves to
put the contents out of joint with the
~titlo-page. The reader is amazed to
find that the news is a week or two
behind the pretended day Of issue or
in case Of a magazine which comments
on current events, that the latest
occurrences referred to are more than
a month old. We suggest a thorough
reform in this respect to the publish
ers Of metropolitan monthlies and
weeklies. The Weekly Tribune, we
may remark, is printed on the day Of
It's date, 0ur experience leads us Ia
believe that the subscribers like this
arrangement best. They know that
the paper Is mailed in New York on
Wednesday, and if it does not come to
hand at the accustomed time they
know tho mails are to blame.

steamship Josephine was received
from some Of her passengers who have

at four o'clock. Her passenger list
numbered thi; ty-fve persons. She
had splendid weather up to Saturday
at noon, when the wind freshened
from the southeast and continued tC
increase until it blew q perfect hur

and it was soon discovered she was
rapidly being filled with water. Sun
day morning the purser informed the
cabin passengers that the forward com
partments we're nearly full and that
the vessel was sinking rapidly. The
pumps were at once manned, and all
worked with a will except an Italian
s%hipwrecked crew which the jose
phine had reeeiv. d aboard at Cedar
Keys. They refused to lend any as.

captain would not allow them to &C.

PeOpIe Who Whine.

There Is a class of persons in this
world, by no means small, whose promi-
nent peculiarly is whining. They whine
because they are poor, or if rich because
they have no health to enjoy their
riches they whine because they have
no luck, and others prosperity exceeds
theirs ; they whine because some friends
have died and they are living; they
whine because they have aches and
pains, and they have aches and pains
because they whine they whine, no one
can tell why. Now, a word to these
whining persons First, stop whining
it is of no use complaining, fretting,
fault-fnding and whining. Why, you
are the most deluded set of creatures
who ever lived Do you know that 1t Is
a well-settled principle of physiolsA
and common sense that these habiEssY
more exhausting to nervous vitality than
almost any other violation of physiolog-
ical law? And do you know that life is
pretty much as you make it? You can
make it bright and sunshiny, or you can
make it dark and shsdOwy. This life is
meant only to discipline us-tO fit us for
q higher and purer state of being. Then
stop whining ard fretting, and go on
your way rejoicing.

If boots squeak. there Is no time when
they do it with such persistency and yigor
as on Sunday, when the owner Is passing
up the church aisle 10 his pew. And
the more carefully ne goes and on tiptoe,
The noisier they are. The New York
Hsraid has entered into campaign
against squeaky boots, and the result Is
4 number of communications suggesting
various remedies q" One who has tried
t and Sympathy" agree that the best
olau Is TO have "A shoemaker put some
powdered soap-stoue between the outer
and inner sOles. However, this should
DE done before the boots are made, and
the suggestion is worthless in the case OF
boots which have already been ordered,
paid for and entered upon their career
Of squeakiness. Envy" hits the case
Of existing boots and shoes, with his
suggestion d" to bore small holes, one
inch apart and onc-siXteenth of an inch
in depth. IN the centre of the sole of
each shoe Then fill each hole with
drop or two Of sweet oil and let 1t soak
well into the shoe before using. If the
shoe still squeaks reDeat the remedy:
sQueaky shoe always succumbs to the

gives the philosophy Of the squeak, and
writes o0uedhN SutcH are cAltStu ny
the vacuum between the insole and the
outsole. Treading on the sole of a shoe
forces the air out Of the vacuum, which
produces the sound we call squeak.
The proof Of this Is that so-called
turned shoe, having no insole, forms
no vacuum, therefore does not squeak.
4 piece of muslin or other similar
material, gummed on both sides, which
viii adhere 10 the inner and outer sole,
thus filling the vacuum, viii Of necessity
prevent squeaking. This applies to shoes
in process Of making. Now, as to those
which are already made-three or fOu
pegs or brads driven in the outsole, be
tween the shank and the toe, will close
the vacuum and prevent the squeak~,'
This latter suggestion appears to have a
spice of mischief III 1t. Unless great
care was exercised in inserting the pegs,
the wearer would soon begin to wish
that he had the squeak back again.

A Selfish General.

One night In the spring of go Gen.
Richardson, who then commanded a
brigade, took it into his head to inspect
the picket line. Coming upon reserved
picket OF about thirty men under COM
mand OF Captain of the Second Michi-
gan infantry, the General saw fit to in
terrogate as follows:
Captain, in case of an alarm by the
advance picket what would you do?"
" Send off reinforcement at once. :"
=" And If the firing continued ?"
I" l should move up the remainder of
my force.
And suppose a whole company of
the enemy should press forward +? "
Wed whip them"
but If it was regiment ?"
I'd form line of battle and check
them until / sent back and got orders to
charge and capture the whole lot.
Wen, suppose a brigade should
move down on You in battle line )"
I'd order charge, split the column
IN two, and whip both halves in detail. T"
At midnight the brave Captain was re-
Ileved from further duty on picket. He
was very indignant and considerably
puzzled, but after thinking the matter
over for awhile he said to brother Off
