there is great deal less disease among West
ern swine than has been reported.

Representative Dockery, of Missouri has

portunity 1t provides that after June 80,

THE POOR EDITOR

Now the editor sits in his hard-bottomed chair,
With doubts and with cares in his soul;
And he schemes as he's nipped by the chill,
frosty air,
As to who he can ''stand-off'' for coal
But the editors mind is now at rest,
Over trouble no more he'll brood;
An angel of mercy has just called in
Twas a subscriber with load of wood
A LADY artist, who had painted
smiling cherub on her canvas, remarked
to a gentleman observer EDO you
know, sir, that with one stroke can
change this smiling boy into a weeping
one?" ''That's nothing" said the
gentleman. sat home, when my boy
makes too much of a racket, can, with
one stroke of my cane make him weep,
and howl, too, instantly. ."-Tera8

The Needy.

A novel way Of aiding the needy has
just been put in operation in Baltimore.
1t is the "Provident" woodward, where
men who are willing to work can saw a
cord of wood for fifty cents. At present
the place is far too small and arrange
ments are making to enlargeit. Strange
to say, not one tramp has yet put in an
appearance for work. The applicants
are all residents of that city who have
been thrown out of regular employment.
One Of the applicants recently was an
old gray haired man, fully eighty years
of age. He was one of the first to finish
his assigned labor, and went offreioicing
with his half-dollar.

A Scarcity of Newspapers.

The world, taken as a whole, is short
of newspapers. A foreign paper has the
following to say on the subject:
''It is astonishing to contemplate the
enormous number of people in the world
to whom a newspaper must be as rare as
diamond. Recently published statis-
tics show that while the circulation of
newspapers throughout the world ag-
gregates the great number of 10000,
600, 900, it only averages six and a half
copies per year to each inhabitant of the
globe. This is assuming that only one
paper goes to each purchaser; but since
it is no uncommon thing for one man to
buy several, the proportion of those
who never buy one is greatly increased
Europe publishes 1857, while the
wonderful section of the world classed
as "North America" in the statistics fol-
lows with 70, 400. The whole of Asia can
only show us, a contrast, the more
striking beside the benighted South
America, which runs close upon the vast
continent, with 500. Africa lags behind
with only 182, the modern settlements
of Australasia in its limited area owning
66l. Dividing them into languages there
are 16,500 printed in the English Ian !
guage, 1850 in German, $3.50 in French
and 1,6OO in Spanish. The annual ag-
gregate circulation in the United States
is 5000, ,0OO,O 600, as compared with 2, $780,
100000 in Great Britain and Ireland, |
giving the United States the position of |
being the most voracious devourers of |
newspaper literature in the world.

SENT BAcK.-Sixty bushels of pam
phlets, advertising patent medicine,
were received in the Boston Post Office
and were found on examination to con-
tain also circular advertising a Kansas
lottery. They will be sent back by ex-
press to the firm, in New York State,
who mailed them at its expense, and it
is not unlikely that the firm will be
prosecuted in the United States Courts
for sending contraband matter through
