which he partook with a keener relish

An editor died, and wended his way
down to where he supposed warm re-
ception awaited him. The devil met
him and said: "For many years thou
hast borne the blame for the errors
that the printers made in the paper.
The paper has gone for 81; and the 8,
alas! has often failed to come. The
printers bedeviled thee for wages on
Saturday night when thou hadst not a
cent to thy name. Men have taken the
paper without paying for it, and cursed
thee for not getting up better paper.
Thou hast been called dead-beat by
the passenger conductor when thou
hast shown thy annual pass. All these
things thou hast borne in silence. Thou
canst not come in here" And he fired
him. AS he did so he murmured to
himself: Heaven is his home, and be-
sides, if we had let him come in here
he would have been continually dun

thus he would have created discord in
