Something for the New Year.

The world renowned success OF Hos

their own immediate supervision, en-
ploying 60 hands in that department.
Six cylinder printing presses, ) folding

about eleven months in the year on
this work, and the issue of same
for 1889 will not be less than
ten millions, printed in the Eng
lish, German, French, Welsh, Nor
wegian, Swedish, Holland, Bohe-
mian and Spanish languages. Re-
fer to a copy of ii for valuable and in
teresting reading concerning health,
and numerous testimonials as to the

EXCUSE ME.
RI LINE SHARP.

Certainly. Pardon me-"
| heard the above snatch of CONVEX
sation the last time | was in New
York. 1t occurred in the evening at
the New York end of Brooklyn bridge,
which, at that hour, was crowded
with men hurrying home. The snatch
of conversation reads rather like a
polite remark and rejoinder. 1t was
anything but that. The first speaker
was pushing and elbowing his way
forward, when he trod on the others
corns. The second man swore and
glared around, when the first said ::
Excuse me-"
The wounded man likes flash struck
out from the shoulder, knocked the
other into the middle of next week,
and replied:
Certainly. Pardon me-"
The striker rapidly disappeared into
the gathering gloom before the struck
recovered himself sufficiently to shout
"police."
The moral of the incident seemed
to me TO be that in some instances
excuses don't ego"
The other day boy about Is years
of age called up at my room and said,
after introducing himself, that he
wanted advice.
"About what?" | asked.
about nothing in particular" he
said, as he fumbled somewhat ner-
vously with his hat. "You see, it's
like this | want to get along in the
world and l would like to know what
we'll would like some advice"
This was such an unusual request
from a modern American boy that it
quite took my breath away. Most of
the boys who come up to see me don't
want advice-they want to know
where to get cigarette pictures or
tickets to some game.
l looked at the boy who wanted
advice. He had fresh, honest face,
and had no hesitation in set
ting him down as a good boy who
would probably make his way in the
world.
"Well, my boy" l said seriously,
"there is one thing I'd advise you to
quit. If was you, I'd stop getting
drunk and raising a racket on the
streets at midnight and getting run
in. That's my advice"
"I never touched drop of liquor in
my life," said the boy with so panied
an expression that was sorry / had
spoken in this way to him.
"Don't smoke, SUPPOSE"
'No, sir"
"Chew, snuff; anything of that
kind?"
'fNo, sir"
"Read flash novelist"
"No, SIR"
"Swear?"
"No, sir"
"Fight?"
"No, sir"

NY way CledTeT Ithn L no now.
The boy thanked me although l
knew l did not deserve any thanks.
Next day he called again. In the in
terval had remembered the incident
on Brooklyn bridge. Now, the man
had said, Excuse me" and had been
knock ed down.
well, my boy" / began, "my
advice is this: Never make an excuse.
There is a proverb which says, a
poor excuse is better than none
That adage is as wrong as most of
them are. Even good excuse is not
better than none. There are thous-
ands of people in this world, my boy,
who are magnificent architects of ex-
cuses Some of them manage TO get
along pretty we'll building up impos-
ing excuses and letting others do their
regular work, but they never amount
to much in the long run. No one ever
depends on a man who Is good at
excuses"
When was in Chicago last summer
the city editor of one of the papers
there told me this story, which will
show the advantage of not having an
excuse:
Some years green looking fellow
appeared in the city editors room
from no one knew where and wanted
a job. The city editor told him, as
he had told hundreds of others before
him, that there was no vacancy at
present-that is the usual formula
- - - -
of news ii would be cheerfully accepted
and paid for.
Well, the young man brought in
what stuff he could, and sometimes an
item or two was used but more often
nothing was available, and the fellow
lived as best he could and slept in
sheds or in the park and never grum-
bled. The editor began to get tired
of seeing his want stricken face, and
once or twice advised him to go home,
but the young man said that perhaps
chance would come along by and by,
and anyhow he was there to stay.
One night the city editor said to him:
"If you want chance, there's beau
tiful one open for you tonight. The
street-car men are having meetings
every night, and we can't find out
what they're up to. They meet at the
corner of til street and -
avenue"
Gall right" said the young man.
"Have you any objection to my say
ing Pm reporter of this paper?"
"None in the least" said the editor
with a grin. al must say, though,
that Ratigan, who tried to get last
nights meeting, is in the hospital to-
day"
Seeing how much in earnest the
young man was, the city editor added
1.-The meeting is SHADES regular
assignment tonight, but don't think
he'll get much, except broken head,
perhaps. Anyhow, if you get any
thing at all, it'll help out. Here's
couple of dollars to meet any expenses
you may have"
Shortly after midnight the young
man appeared in the city editors room.
He looked rs if he had been principal
in prize fight.
"Well?" said the city editor.
81 couldn't get in" remarked the
young man. "Has Mr.. Slade brought
anything?"
Eyes, first-rate excuse like yours"
81 tried to pass the guards, but they
flung me down stairs. That's how |
got this" pointing to his cut and
swollen lip.
"That's all right. / didn't expect
you'd get in"

AFTERNOON SESSION.
SAN FRANCISCO AND VICINITY.

Only three cases of small pox reported
on Sunday.
The Directors of the Veterans Home are
in session at Yountville.
The State Board of Prison Directors met
yesterday at San Quentin.
John Adams, a city front loafer, is under
arrest for beating his wife.
The thermometer advanced Sunday from
90 to 39o. A very agreeable climatic
change.
1t is said that raw sugar is very scarce in
the local rehneries just now, and, unless
more comes in at an early date, they will
have to shut down. Six vessels are now on
the way to this port from Manila, eight
from Honolulu, and three from Kahulu.
The ships Herat and Drumeltan from
Manila are daily expected.
William ]. Connolley, young granger
from Santa Rosa, was arrested by the Har-
Dor Police on East street yesterday after
noon, and locked up on charge of misde-
meanor drunk. On his person was found
the sum of SIS %, and it was ascertained
that he had left pistol and $500 in care of
the proprietor of the cigar-sta at the
Oakland ferry landing. Connolley's father
died some seven weeks ago. and the young
man getting some money, has since been
on periodical sprees. The Harbor Police
have gathered him in more than once, and
he has been in the Home of the Inebriate
