Some time ago a rich old man,
who was dying, sent for the editor
of a paper. The editor knew that
old man had no relatives and
fondly mused, as he went along,
over the probability of a large in
heritance. 'T'm glad you came, "
said the the old man in a deathly
whisper. "Come closer" The ed
itor approached. "You know that
1 have worked hard and earned ev-
cry cent that 1 have got. Some
time ago, you remember, L sub
scribed for your paper for six
months. There is just one more
number due me, and as am dying
and can't wait till your next issue
comes out, just give me nickel
and cali it square,"

What Newspaper Must bo to bo Sue
cessfnl.

A newspaper to be successful
must consider the tastes and wants
of many kinds of people. It's field,
therefore, is a broad one. 1t is not
expected that every one who takes
a newspaper will read and be inter
ested in everything that is pub
lished, and the only limit to the
publisher of a general newspaper,
therefore, is that of decncy. 1t is
due to every respectable person
who takes a paper that its columns
shall not be in part or largely
filed with nastiness; but outside of
this the field is a broard one, and
every part of it must have attention.
To make up paper for any special
class of readers would be an easy
task; but to prepare it for the vari-
Gus classes above the level of those
who prefer filth to anything else, is
a far more difficult undertaking; yet
this is what the managers of a first
class paper are expected to do, and
what they aim to accomplish.

Nashville American: Sensible
men do not seek wives-partners

duties-from the cluster of butter
hes in ball room. Neither do
men who are searching such life
compan.onship prefer those who
have been most literally handled by
fast young men in the german, the
hop or the waltz. The fireside jew
els are the best for wear, and do
not age so rapidly and are most

they are the only medicines now or ever

satisfaction in the treatment of diseased
animals. They are not experiment, but
have been tested by many of the largest
stock-owners in the country, and when
once used, have established their merit.

The Question of Pavements.

In America wooden pavements for cities
have been abandonded generally, because
they hold dampness, swell up and shrink
under climate changes and are inimical 10
public health. We have found those thus
,ar tried. too, TO be irade1uate to the wear
TO which street pavements are subjected.
and TO exceed the cost of stone or cobble
, surfaces. But in England, IL appears the
wooden pavements are just coming into
favorable notice. In London, we learn.
and in several OF tho provincial cities. they
are being laid extensively and give great
satisfaction" The English say that the
noise Of the street, by the use OF wood
block pavements is vastly reduced. Double
windows have heretofore been employed
to exclude the noise Of the clatter OF horses
and vehicles over granite and cobble pave
ments, but can now be abandoned. IL Is
admitted that the wood pavement involves
a heavy cost, but the claim is made that it
is more than compensated for in
the lessened wear on vehicles,
in the augmented endurance Of
horses, and the greater ease and less
ened expense ia cleaning the streets, to say
nothing Ol The practical elimination OF tic
noise nuisance. The Liverpool city en-
gineer reports that the wooden pavements
there laid on concrete foundations cost the
same as the pavements laid with small
granite blocks. but he adds that the cost OF
maintenance is double Butt the lessened
wear and tear on horee.fssh and vehicles
could be ascert aimed and It's money value
TO the people estimated and placed to the
or dit OF the wood payements
we do not doubt they would be
found 10 be more economical than stone
payements. The stone pavement IS cru
sliy TO animals, no matter how laid. Ii is
