Earnings Of Popular Authors.

A simple glance over the list of
American authors is in itself o con-
vincing evidence that literature is not
so profitable as IL literary paragraph
ers would have MS believe. Very few
of II modern authors find themselves
able to depend entirely upon the
revenues Of their work. I will not say
that they could not do SO; 1 merely
state the fact that they do not. MI.
Cable, for example, devotes consider
able time to lecturing. Mark Twain is
nov more of o publisher than an au-
thor. Joel Chandler Harris is an ed
itor, as is Richard Henry Stoddard.
DIR. Holmeshas found his medical pracss
tice immensely valuable to him for
years before he reached an eminence
in literature accorded to but few.
Marion Harland and Margaret T..
Sangster both find the editorial chair
profitable; likewise John Habberton,
Mr.. Aldrich, Mr.. Warner, and Mi.
Glider. Bret Harte's consulate was
not purely accepted for the honor it
brought. Mary Mapes Dodge doubt
less finds more peace of mind in the
assured income which her position as
editor of 81. Nicholas brings her than
in the lottery of simple authorship.
Indeed, there are but few authors of
to-day who do not harness some other
duties to the mere writing of stories,
poems or novels. I do not write these
facts in Encouragement of rising liter
airy talent; simply to counterfeit, if
possible, some of the impressions
likely to be made by photographers who
are apt to be too reckless in their
handling of the incomes of famous an
thors.-EdaCard VI. Box, IN Ladies'
Home Journal.

Beauty in Tears.

Menare weak, sometimes-especially
if SO unfortunate as to have viragos for
wives. They dread the storm, and,
agree to almost anything to avoid it.
Then, too, a man dislikes to see a
woman's tears-especially if he be in
any way concerned in calling them
forth. They appeal most strongly to
the softer feelings of his nature; they
are a tacit acknowledgment Of his
power, by which he is both Aattered
and grieved, and, unless his heart be
harder than adamant, or he has be-
come Indifferent to such scenes from
their frequency, he will make any sac
rifce, yield any point, even though
his conscience whispers that he is do
ing wrong. Having entered upon this
subject, let me breathe a few words in
the ears of those ladies who are in the
habit of a constant resort to this
timely weapon of self-offense and de-
tense. I would warn them that too
frequent use will blunt its edge. Men
grow weary of sameness, and even
beauty in tears will, after a time,
cas- to be interesting.-St. Louis
Magazine.

Mormon Idea Of Woman,s Rivhts

a Mormon could not take a second wife

TnE Esquimaux think their snow place like

The St. Johns herald., 1889-10-24

The beef output of Montana this season will not exceed 65,0O0 head, against 10000 last year, which is indeed very marked decrease. The shipping season is now scarcely more than one-half spent, but up to date less than 35,000 have been marketed. Of this number fully 25,000 went east over the Northern Pacific and it is safe to say that shipments for the month of Octo- Der will be light, as compared with the fore part of the season and ex- ceedingly small as compared with last year. The reason for this is very plain; the cattle are not in the country. It will be remembered that the winter of 1SS6-'S7 was the hard winter and that a large per centage of the calf crop of 1886, which would be three-year-olds now, perished and the crop is, conse- quently, light. There are, of course, a few four-year.olds that were miss ed in gathering; but this occurs every year, and there have been some steers shipped in that are marketable this year, otherwise the output would be smaller than it is proving. There is no question about the shortage.-Rocky Mountain Husbandman.
