A Lucrative Profession.

The better majority of tn journal
lists of New York feel Inundated and
outraged by enterprises which make
them pose untruthfully before the
public as mendicants. The income of
all the lawyers, clergymen, physicians,
and other professional men in New
York is less per capita than that of
the average newspaper writer. The
young lawyer is lucky if his first year
of practice keeps his stomach filled and
his body covered, but the callowest re-
porter is rated as worthless if he gets
less than $l5 per week from the out
set. The clergyman is fortunate if
his salary reaches $1,000 year after
half lifetime of work. but the skilled
newsgathercr expects from $1,000 to
$4,000. The physician is regarded
enviously by his fellows when his
arduous practice yields $1,000, but an
able writer of original matter for the
press receives in this city at least that
recompense. and possibly twice as
much. The days of bohcmianism are
over, and the feeling among New
York journalists is strong now, even
bitter, that the comparatively small
element of bummerism should be kept
out of sight instead of being exploited.
AS to the deserving men who die poor
in the profession, they number relative

BalZac'6 Wife.

Everything that concerns Balzac's
life is mysterious, but this attachment
to Nine. de Hanska seems to ME to
give us the key to many points
that are otherwise incomprehensiblc.
First of all, it helps to explain his her
culean literary labors and that intem-
perance of toll which, while fatally
undermining his health, yet enabled
him to produce such prodigious
quantity of work. To my mind, the
explanation of Balzac's immense efforts
is his old double thirst for celebrity
and love. ITO devote myself to the
happiness of woman is my perpetual
dream,' be wrote to his sister in his
earlier years. He had now found the
woman of his dreams, and he worked
in the hope Of one day laying his glory
and his millions at her feet. This hap
py day came at last. Nine. de Hans

HumOr in the Family.

Good-humor is rightly reckoned a
most valuable aid to happy home life.
An equally good and useful faculty is a
sense of humor or the capacity to have
a little amusement along with the
humdrum cares and ork of life. We
all know how it brightcns up things
generally to have q lively, witty CON-
panion who secs the ridiculous poin
of things and who can turn an annoy
ance into an occasion for laughter
1t does a great deal better to laugh
over some domestic mishaps than 10
cry or scold over them. It is we'll to
turn off an impatient question some
times, and to regard it from humor-
Gus point of view. instead of becoming
irritated about it. ''Wife, what is the
reason can never find a clean shirt?'
exclaimed good but rather impatient
husband. after rummaging all through
the wrong drawer. His wife looked
at him steadily for moment, half in
clined to be provoked; then, with a
comical look, she said: Il never
could guess conundrums; give it up"
Then he laughed, and they both
laughed, and she went and got his
shirt, and he felt ashamed of himself
and kissed her, and then she felt
happy; and so what might have been
an occasion for unkind feelings and
hard words became just the contrary,
all through the little vein of humor
that cropped out to the surface.
Laughter is better than tears. Let us
have little more of it at home.

Gudden the King went for q walk on the
banks of Starnberg Lake. After strolling
aimlessly up and down the path for some
time, the King, affecting to be tired, sat
down to his last dinner. The meal was
soon over, for though a morbid glnttony

night he seemed to be more resigned and

A Nursery For Birds.

A notice posted in the window of an
uptown bird-store recently attracted
the attention of New York Mail and

colors, and species made the place a
wilderness of discord as they screamed,

prisoners were boarders, the others
were offered for sale.
