missioners J. 7. Brown and Henry
Fry. These are good men, and good

An exchange truthfully remarks
that "the editor of country paper
does more work gratuitously for the
town and community than all the
rest Of the population put together,
and as compensation therefor gets
more kicks than caresses." And this
remark is absolutely true. If you
don't believe it, play editor little
while.
