Have a System.

Whoever you are, whatever your lines of
action, reduce your life to a system. This is
the open secret Of all smooth and rapid work.
It is always the systematic people who get
over the most ground with the least friction.
Watch this successful business man; observe
that thrifty housewife; mark yonder pastor
as he mnnipulates hundred interests. Full
Of affairs, how do they contrive to clutch
from the grinding whTl so many serene IN
tervals Of leisureq The answer is, system.
'Tis sad thing, and common, when one
would sit down and draw long breath, or
when one might enjoy some otherwise legiti-
matc pleasure, to be clamored upon by duties
undone Why make a lumber room Of your
life, full Of odds and ends Of unassorted
thingsl Some folks are animated confusion.

The IdttIe Wan.ioror

/ A private letter from Fort Supply, in the
Indian Territory, relates a pathetic story OF
the wanderings In the wilderness OF a mere
baby, with only a little dog for its faithful
guide and companion. Some twelve miles
from the fort there lives on a ranch a woman
who supplies the post with dairy products.
She had three small children. The second Of
these, wee, brown eyed, fair haired baby Of
years, had little dog who was her in
separable companion. One day neither could
be found. The anxious mother locked up her,
two other children, and, getting cowboy to
accompany her, started forth on horseback
to search for the infant wanderer. An day.
long she secured the country, finding no
trace. A searching party from the post met
with no better success.
Mrs Gilman, the wife Of oneof the officers,
was, however, so strongly impressed with q
conviction that the child had not perished
that, In response to her entreaties another
party was organized and again set forth TO
continue the quest This time there were $50
man riding in all directions On the fifth day
Of the search a detachment espied the little
dog crawling out from under a cliff above a
tiny stream. They went to it, and there,
lying on the ground, found the poor baby.
Its little bruised and swollen feet had wan
dered full fifteen miles from home. Il was
still alive, but died before reaching home.
The poor, faithful dog had chung to his play
fellow all the time and had led her to the
water. Tracing back the trail over which
these small travellers had wandered. it ap-
peared that they had gone where no foot Of
man could tread. In some places they must
have fallen over lodges and rolled down
declivities, and they had crawled along pre-
cipices where the steadiest head might have
grown dizzy.-New York World.

High Priced Surgery.

last one Of New York's big surgeons under

necessary, with a long interval between
them. The surgeon and his chief assistant
performed them, and the fees, In popular re-
port, ranged ffom $4,000 to 100000 for the
chief, and from 5000 to $4,000 for the as
sistant. Yet even the larger amounts would

The supreme court of the United States
has rendered a decision in reference to the
copyrighting of judicial opinions, in the case
of Callaghan ct al. vs.. Myers The appellee
brought suit against the appellants for in
fringing upon a copyright secured to him by
the reporter Of the supreme court of Illinois
by publishing certain volumes of the Illinois
reports. The court decided in favor of the ap-
pellee, holding that while copyright cannot
be secured for the text of the opinions Of the
judges, the reporter of the court has the
right, in the absence Of any legislation for
bidding him to do so, to secure copyright
for the title, headings, notes, syllabi, and ar
rangement of the opinions, and that as the
book would be of no value without these
copyrighted portions, the whole book may be
copyrighted, The court said, however, that
this copyright viii not hold good where it is
sought to be procured in behalf Of the state.
