Oh, mercy ! Let's go down quick
| wouldn't stay up here an hour for a
farm, exclaimed young lady who
caught sight Ofa bevy of cockroaches
scampering over the editors desk.
Why, what's the matter? Isn't
this the sanctum you have so often
wanted to see?" said the editor rather
surprised at her wanting to get away,
after inviting herself up dozen times
Those awful bugs, and you just let
them run over your paper and on your
clothes and everywhere. I'd die, in
deed l would"
" These" and he shook couple of
fine ones out of his sleeve, these are
our nightly companions, our sleepless
conservators of health. They are the
guardian angels of a newspaper office.
Were they to suddenly disappear, I
would be sure some dreadful scourge
or calamity was going to fall upon the
place, and | would fee until | found n
spot where the cockroach felt at
home"
" Why, what does it do but run over
you ?"
My dear child, it eats every bit of
paste or other harmful waste that is
left lying about. 1t is a scavenger
whose business it is to destroy fer
ments. These, when absorbed into
the system, are very deleterious to the
health. So, you see, we have motive
in keeping on good terms with the
cockroach. He is the buzzard of the
newspaper Office"
Well, l think I'll go anyhow, as l
want to get the next car"

WANTING THE SEASON TO CLOSE
In certain portions of Louisiana, where
watermelons grow on the malarial low
lands, it is the common belief that toe
much indulgence in that fruit is pro.
ductive of chills and fevers. At all
events, about the whole colored popu.
latiOn in those districts become annu-
ally afflicted with ague during the wa
termelOn season, while the whites. who
are more abstemiOus, are mostly free
from it, 1t is narrated that one morn.
ing, near the close of the season, Julius
and Cato met in n plantation, each
with large melon in his hand. and
both shaking with the chills until their
shining teeth clattered together rather
noisily.
GLOW is yo', dis mornin', Julius ?"
asked Cato, "any better dan de dav
befo' Yesterday"
=" Oh, / got de aguey drefTul bad, an
I'm powerful weak" replied Julius.
"but de melon season am bout ober'
Hain't got much mon week longer. an
den we'll git ober de trubble."
Yes" returned Cato, "we1l pit
shut o de ehills den, suah."
Neither of the honest darkies ever
dreamed of getting over his illness bv
putting any restraint upon his appetite.
