Mr. Gladstone at Hnma

NO living man eNcites 4 more general in
tcrest at the present time than the prime
minister Of England and every detail that
can be gathered up, whether respecting his
public or his private life, is attentively read,
II. W. Lucy contributes an interesting arti-
Gle to ''Harper's' upon Mr.. Gladstones
home life, from which our readers NAV learn
how the statesman enjoys his periods of
domestic repose.
THE woodchopman's craft is the only
exercise, except walking, which Mr.. Glad
stone indulges in. 1t is many years since
ne was astride horse, and he never much
cared for the exercise. He very rarely
drives, and neither shoots, hunts, or fishes.
But he is great hand with the axe, estab-
llshlng fresh claims upon the 1ilial respect of
Mr.. W. RI. Gladstone himself no mean
craftsman. In the recess, weather permit
ting, and sometimes whether or not, scarce
ly a day passes that he does not stroll out
with his seventy-three years upon his head,
and his axe on his shoulder, not returning
till, if his labor were paid at the current
wages, he would have earned his dinner.
Failing opportunity for tree telling, he takes
a turn for an hour or so on the terrace in
front of the house, where the flower garden
is, and whence may be seen a far-reaching
stretch of meadow-land bounded by trees.
During the session, his hour for retiring to
rest is usually contemporano,ls with that
of the House of Commons 1t is oftenert two
than any other hour on thedial that he gets to
bed with the conciousness that he mustbe up
betimes to carry on the business of an empire
on which the sun never sets. AT home, In
the piping days of the recess, he does not
follow the wholesome habits of some tired
legislators. who being in country quarters,
have been known to go to bed at ten o'clock
by way of striking an average with the pa
triOtic dissipation ofthe session He is rare.
ly to bed before half past eleven, and some
times he hears lhe chimes of midnight before
turning in. But at whatever hour he retircs
to rest, he is down at quarter to eight and
before breakfast walks of to the little
church in the village where the service is
conducted by his son, the rector. There is
private tootway connecting the castle with
the gateway leading into the road, and here
very soon after eight o'clock, every morn
ing, fair weather or foul, snow or wintry
sunshine, the English Premier may he seen
walking with light and active footsteps to-
ward the village church.

Some Facts About Newspapers.

BY some unaccountable misapprcllcnsion
Of facts, there is 4 large class Of people in
the world who think that it costs little or
nothing to run Il newspaper, and ifthey buy
copy occasionally they are regular patrons
and entitled to unlimited flvors. Men ask
for a copy OLA newspaper for nothing, who
would never dream Of begging q pocket
handkerchief from dry good store or
piece OF candy from confectioner, even
upon the plea of having done business with
them before. One papcris not much, but 80 or
40 at each issue will amount to something in
the course time. But this is a small drain
compared with the amount of free advcr-
tising a newspaper is expected to do. Some
people when they once pay for an advertise
ment think they are stockholders in the cs-
tablishment for eternity. Without being
represented in its advertising columns we
have had people TO request us to gratuit-
ously insert this notice. or draw attention to
this article, with the slight suggestion that
1t will not cost you anything to put this in,"
which is just as ridiculous as to ask man
to grind your axe on his grindstone, and gra-
ciously tell him il won't cost him 4 cent.
1t takes money to run newspaper rs well
as any other business no paper can succeed
financially that carries a dcad-hcad system.
Any mention Of peoples affairs that they
are anxious TO see in print is worth paying
for, and when printed is generally worth as
much as any other investment of the same
amount. The newspaper business is very
exacting on al connected with it, and the
pay is comparatively small the proprietors
risk more money for smaller profits, and the
editors, reporters and printers work harder
and cheaper than the same number of
men in any other profession requiring
the given amount of intelligence, training
and drudgcry. The life has its charms and
pleasant associations. scarcely known to the
outside world but it has its earnest work
and anxieties, and hours of exhaustion,
which also are not known to those who
think the business all fun. The idea that
newspaperdom is charmed circle where
the favored members live life Of ease and
free from care, is an idea which should be ex-
ploded. Business is business, and the Jour
nal that succeeds is the one that is run on
square business footing, the same as bank
ing, building bridges or keeping hotel.--U
S. Economist and Dry Goods Reporter.
