The Different Glasses OF Printing.

Printing may be divided into four classes,
as follows:
First-The customer brings in his order in
a quiet, gentlemanly way with "sood morn-
ing," or afternoon" and says, "here is
job which please get up in good STYLE" He
does not ask the price-requires no proof,
his copy is good, and he gives no trouble.
His order claims immediate attention--lt Is
set up in the best style, and printed on the
best paper. There ale no errors, for the
printer has confidence in himself and in his
custo ner. The work gives great satisfaction,
and when the bill is sent around he is per-
fectls satisfied and pays the money charged
with pleasure. He believes in the printer,
and the printer believes in him. This is
first class printing.
Second--The customer stalks into the
Office with an unhappy cast of countenance.
"Could such and such a job be printed at
once ?" "What will it cost ?" "How long
will it take?" "Send me proof" The
copy Is average bad, the customer has but
ILLle cODUQenCe III HIMSELF anu uOHS III Tue
printer. A proof is sent, two or three blum
ders by the printer are found, and dozen
alterations from copy are made by himself.
He returns the proof himself and will wait
while the corrections are made, the customer
thinks cheaper paper will do, and the job
when done looks decidedly second-class. He
Is not satisfied with it, and when the bill is
sent in he pays it reluctantly. This is sec
ond class printing.
Third-"You don't mean to say you are
going to charge me $3.50 for this job-why,
am sure can get it done for less ?" The
printer then knows his customer, throws off
fifty cents, and saves that amount by using
cheaper stock. The bill is sent in month
after month, and he finally takes $3.50 to
settle the account. This is third class print
Ing.
Fourth class printing is never paid for.
Every printer has had more or less expert
ence In all these classes.

Senator Trumbull's Two Troubles
Ne,o York Times.

Sergeant alarms French, in a lecture
upon "Ten Years About the Senate" related
the following: "Lyman Trumbull was an
other great lawyer and a good deal of a
statesman; like Fessenden, debater, rather
than an orator. A sharp man, distinguished
by great acuteness of discrimination and ac-
curacy of statement and of judgment. Not
as strong man as Fessenden, but in many
traits like him. There was time, while
Mr.. Trumbull was Chairman Of the Senate
Committee on the Judiciary, that Benjamin
Butler was Chairman of the Judiciary Com
mlttee of the House. 1t was during this
period that delegation from one Of the
Southern States visited Washington with .
desire to secure the impeachment and re-
moval of the Federal Judge Of their State.
They interviewed Mr.. Butler as to the prob
ability of carrying such measure through
that session. Il don't know, was Mr.. Buffers
reply. Il am Chairman of the Judiciary
Committee of the House. The necessary
action can be had here. But Lyman Trum-
bull is Chairman of the Senate Committee,
and Judge Trumbull is troubled with two
things-the dyspepsia, which makes him
miserable, and conscience, which makes
him uncertain In these modern times
there may be many others besides General
Butler who would sneer at Senator for be-
ing caught in Washington with conscience,
but there must be left some of the old fash
ioned people who, in their simplicity, would
honor the man all the more"

The successful use by our troops during
the Egyptian war OF some hastily armed rail-
way trucks, drawn by an ironclad engine,
has induced the Spanish Government to or
der the immediate construction of . specially
designed train, which in time Of war will be
available, not only as means OF rapid trans

quantity Of telegraph plant, and several
field gun. The trucks will be provided with
high sides, which will be ironclad and loop
holed, and motive power will be supplied by
two heavily armored engines, one at each
end Of ths train. This novel man-of-war

men, all Of whom will, In case Of need, eat
and sleep on board, and arrangement will be
made for the further accommodation, IL nec-
essary, Of another hundred men.

Enoch Arden's True Story.

When Enoch Arden came home after that
memorable and disastrous voyage, which
shlpwrecked him and his hopes, he crept up
the street to his old home, as Tennyson in
forms US, and looked in the window. There
be was Philip Ray and Annie, his wife, and
and their child, all seated around the hearth
cracking walnuts.
The whole bitter truth came upon him
with terrible force. Annie, supposing Enoch
to be dead, had married Philip, so as to have
a home for herself and child, and man
about the house in case of tramps. 1t was a
sad coming back for Enoch, and he was mad
about it. Not so much because Philip had
married his wife, for there were plenty more
wives to be had; not because his child had
learned to call another man "pa," though
that was bitter pill, inasmuch as the child
looked little like Philip anyhow.
Neither of these things worried him half
so much as to note that Philip was wearing
bis (Enoch's) clothes. With a menacing
gesture Enoch was just about to dash into
the house and annihilate them when sudden
ly the anger in his countenance was supplant-
ed by look of terror, aud he skunk away as
silently as he had come. He had caught
sight Of Annie's mother, who during Enoch's
absence had broken up housekeeping and
come over TO live with her daughter, and had
become fixture there.
Enoch told some of the boys afterward
that 1t was the narrowest escape of his life,
and that he would rather be shipwrecked
every five minutes than to encounter his
mother.in law.

Professor Lockyer is Of the opinion that
human life on the planet Mars may be very
much like human life on the earth; the light
cannot be 80 bright, but the organs of sight
may be so much more susceptible as to make
the vision quite as good. The hea. Is prob
ably less, as the polar SHOWS certainly extend
further, but by no means less in proportion
TO the lessened powell of the solar rays. The
Professor agrees with others, that several re-

Value OF SKINNED MIX
Nelo York Herald.


Recent Investigations by the German
chemists, Ritthausen and J. Konig, have led
to important conclusions. They are to the
effect that the nutri:Ive value Of skinned
milk is much higher than is generally sup
posed. According to these, the prIce paid
for the albuminoids in skinned milk Is
lower than that paid for them in any of the
ordinary foods in the market, excepting
stock fish. The former chemist states that
about two quarts of this milk contain as
much nitrogenous matter as pound of meat,
and the latter that a given number of nutri-
tive units of the milk cost about "a per cent.
less than pork and still less than butter.
While further experiments may somewhat
modify these conclusions, they are sufficient
ly accurate to show that the popular preju-
dice against SKINNED milk Is unfounded,
provided the article is unadulterated. 1t Is
known that the proportion of fatty matter In
unskimmed milk is not more than per
cent. and while this ingredient may be very
neces sary to make the milk suitable for the
use of children and an9mic persons, there
are large classes of milk consumers who can
do as we'll or better without it. The great
difficulty with skinned milk is that Of get
ting 1t pure and undiluted. But the same
may be said of unskimmed milk.
If, however, the city authorities took prop
er precautions to prevent the sale Of both
when diluted aud adultersted, the cheaper
article might be safely employed on larger
scale for purposes for which the unskimmed
article is now used. Were this done, and
creamless milk more generally used, q very
considerable economy could be effected by
consumers, the amount of cream left for the
creameries would be so much increased that
we might hope for cheaper butter, and with
the reduced demand In cities for unskimmed
milk the public would not have TO pay 10
cents quart for 1t.

Practical Hints about spectacies.

Persons finding their eyes becoming dry
and itching on reading, rs well rs those who
find 1t necessary to place an object nearer

Persons under forty years Of age should
not wear glasses until the accommodating

a competent opthalmic surgeon.
The spectacle glasses sold by peddlers and
by jewellers generally are hurtful to the eyes

POETRY.
THE MINERS PRoTEGE.

Wal, you see, it's queer story, Missy;
The little gals none of our kin;
But, you bet, when the old men 60 under,
She's the one who will handle our tin.
Ny pard and mes rough minin' fellers,
We've got nary children nor wife,
But we love little yellow-haired Nellie,
And Wen rear her up right-bet yer life.
How old? Wal, she's nigh eight, 1reckon;
Five years since we brought her out here;
An she was the cunnin'est baby
Wed looked at for many year.
You see, twas the time the Apacbes
Broke out Blast the red imps Of sin!
The emigrant train crossed their trail, Miss,
An the Injuns they scooped 'em all in.
Yes, thar lay men, children, and wimmin;
The red devils raised all their ha'r.
We couldn't do nothin' to help 'em,
So my pard an me buried 'em thar.
We found one likely-lookin' young cretur
Lynn out from the rest of the heap;
She was dead, like the rest, and Nellie
Law close by her side-fast asleep.
Wal, twas near ninety mile to the settlement,
Bill and me turned the thing in our mind;
An at last concluded TO keep her,
An bring her up lovin' an kind.
We buried her poor dad and nanny,
Likewise all their unlucky mates;
An we named her Nell, arter sweetheart
My pard had once back in the States.
But the trouble we had with that young un
Was somethin' quite funny to see;
Bill gave her up for mystery,
Likewise she was too much for me.
Her derned duds we couldn't get on right,
An we cussed every button an string:
But arter spell we did better
When we once got the hang of the thing.
An she growed up quite pertlike an bloom
in;
We take her to work ev'ry day.
While Bill an mes busy minin'
She'll sit by the rock pile an play.
An she's made better men of both Of us,
Miss,
We doo't cuss now, nor 60 on no spree,
Cause we're workin' an savin' for Nellie,
The pride of my old pard an me.
