People love to laugh. There are
exceptions, possibly; bptthe man who
does not enjoy laughter is sure to be
a cynic. liumor has proved itself a
power on the rostrum, in the legisla.
tive hall, IN the pulpit, at the bar, and
in journalism. lIumor has made the
fortune of more than one newspaper.
There are two or three papers publish
ed regularly in London on the strength
of their American humor, which the
English like. Every successful preacls
er has or had a ready command of hu.
NOR: Chaplin, Beecher, Talmage, Sid
ney Smith, and Spurgeon; and one of
the secrets Of the success of Sam Jones
the Southern evangelist, Is his homely
humor. Abraham Lincoln had it. Ii
goes right to the spot. 1t touches
men when nothing else will. Without
humor many a moral would go ur-
pointed, many a tale madorncd.
Where You md humor there YOU find
pathos. The association seems neon
gruons; but it is not. The partition
which separates tears from laughter
is only gossamer. One supplements
the other; and sometimes the union is
50 close that the alnmp" comes into
the throat ever while the eyes laugh.

Editors Come High.

The best evidence that newspaper
men iii the Northwest are doing well
is the fact that the offer of the good
looking Dakota girl, who is the owner
IN fee simple Of 400 acres of splendid
prairie land, to marry an editor has
not yet been accepted. The Dakota
lass Will have to go as far EAST as
Chicago before she finds a newspaper
