Newspapers and Literature.

Undoubtedly the best literary talent,
and the most fruitful, is now devoted,
in one way or anothrr, to newspapers
or other periodicals. 1t there fines
what all expert ability, directed to the
making of a living, is anxious to get,
namely, steady employment and sure
pay.
But it is nonsense to say that the
literary talent so employed Is buried.
1t is exercised where it produces the
widest effect; and the continuous and
methodical labor required OF the writer,
so far from injuring him, tends TO the
development of his intellect and the i'm
provement of his literary faculty. He
gets better command of his power,
and acquires literary habits OF great
use to him. He also learns how to ad
dress the public in such way as to
command attention and interest his
readers. He makes himself a better
and more practical workman.
OF course we speak only of men who
write with skill and care, and who are
held up to their duty by an editor COM
petent to criticise what they do. Such
writers do not acquire habits OF sloven-
" composition. They rather become
more direct and precise. Nor need
they lose any real beauties and ele-
gancies. They are more likely to get
rid of mannerisms and eXuberances'
and to learn to think about Calculating
what they have to say, and not about
showing off mere literary tricks.
The experience of England and this
country also shows that employment IN
newspaper work does not necessarily
debar a man from independent author
ship or unfit him for it. Many of the
contemporary authors there and here
are. and have been, regular contribu
tors to newspapers. They are the bet
ter able to make valuable and success
full books because of their training IL
the journals, because their living il
assured by their engagements witt
newspapers.
The development of the newspape
during the last fifty years in England
and America has therefore been grea
blessing to men of letters. 1t has mucl
increased the number of good writers
and multiplied enormously the deman'
for literary work. AT the same time
has advanced and made certain the pc
cuniary rewards of the writer. Nor ha
Independent authorship suffered durini
the same time. The last half centur
has been a period of extraordinary rich
ness in nearly every department o
literature.
Very likely there are now as man

ed in this country during the last twer

Vegetation in n iish pond Is neces-
sity, from the fact that fish do not feed
all the time. A large portion OF their
lives is spent in sleepy or stupid con-
dition under or near the banks near
logs, stumps, or any object which at
fords them the secluded shelter they
desire.
The building of fish ponds is recon-
mended on flat surfaces, when enough
water can be controlled to get depth
of from three to four feet, varying OF
course from this to one inch. There
should be also plenty of vegetation, al
SO mud bottom. The dams should
be built of mud, throwing the dirt out
from the inside. This will give suf-
ficient quantity of deep water for the
fish.
How to Cleanse the Waste Pipes.
One of the most frequent and trying
annoyances of housekeeping, as many
can testify, and which writer in the
Philadelphia Ledger freely asserts, is
the obstruction to the free, quick outlet
| of the waste water of the washstand.
| the bathtub, and the kitchen sink.
This is caused by gradual accumu-
lation of small bits of refuse material,
paper, rags, meat, bones, or other Of
| fal, which check and finally stop the
outflow of the waste water, and then
the plumber is called to remove the
stoppage with his force pump.
Sometimes this is effective, at others
the offending waste pipe is cut out and
a new one put in its place at considera-
BILE cost.
But the plumber is not always near
at hand or free to come at ones call,
and the matter demands immediate at
tention. A simple, inexpensive method
of clearing the pipe is as follows: just
before retiring at night pour into the
pipe enough liquid potash I've of So .

called, or bent portion of the pipe just

all of the offal in the pipe into soft soap
and the first current of water in the
morning will remove it entirely, ant
leave the pipe as clean as new. The
writer has never had occasion, in ovel
thirty years experience, to make more
than two applications of it in any on
case.

of this process was that OF larg

Reducing the Armies.

The kings of Europe have recently
been comforting together. The empe-
rors of Austria and Germany have met,
and the King of Spain has paid visit
to several of his brother rulers. The
result is said to be an alliance between
a number of the leading powers to
bring about reduction of the several
armies. In times of profound peace
Europe represents vast camp; nearly
all the able-bodied men are drafted into
the armies, and the financial burdens
of the several nations have, in conse-
auence become intolerable. 1t is be-
lieved that congress of the several ma
tons will be held to see if something
cannot be done to retrench the military
establishments, and save some OF the
money now wasted on costly and use
less ornaments. How happy is the
United States. 1t has no military bur-
dens, nor has it a navy worth mention
ing, and its army is composed OF only
a few thousand men to keep peace upon
the frontiers. Our revenues are SC
large that we do not know how to dis
pose of the surplus. How fortunate
that we have no powers upon this con
tinent to- dispute our approximation
