FATHERLY ADVICE.

fyou wish to make your local paper
interesting and newsy; if you wish to
make your editors appreciate your kind
ness, and enthusiastic in your welfare,
you will please observe the following
rules suggested by the Weiser Qdaho)
Leader:
First-When you come in from the
country or mining camps abd know some
thing that your common sense teaches
you might be an item of news, and hence
appreciated by the editors of your home
paper, don't mention it until four days
after the publication of the paper; then
load yourself up with gin, seek out the
editor, upbraid him for not knowing and
publishing your pet items and lecture
him generally on the imbecile manage.
ment of his paper.
Second If you know any items of 10.
cal Importance, keep them most secretly
and religiously away from your home ed.
itors and with all due haste report the
same to every other paper far and wide
within your knowledge; then, when your
item is published, refer your home editor
to it, ask him if he has seen it and if he
says no tell him he had better keep track
of his exchanges and keep posted in the
news. That course will cause him to love
and reverence you and will fill his soul
with sweet meditations as to just how
soon you will be callad to wear crown
and play harp in the sweet bye and
bye.
Third-Be as distant, as offish, as re.
served and as full of cussedness and bile
as possible when the editor seeks inform
alton of you that might be of interest to
the public or that might tend to make
his paper newsy. This course properly
carried out, makes him appreciate you
and long for your eternal welfare. If
you will carefully observe these rules,
the editor of your home paper will be
most enthusiastic in your business wei.
fare. He will feel inspired to howl long
and loud for your booming town, and
will lie generally for you without fear of
the pains and and penalties of perjury
on his soul, for in the plenitude Of your
kindness the fear Of hell and the home of
liars will be far removed from him.

FREAKS OF NATURE.

A census enumerator discovered a
family of ten children in San Francisco
who were all club footed.
Franklyn, Pa, has child who sleeps
every other three days. The case battles
the physicians. The child is in perfect
health.
An Indiana cow five years old has
given birth to eight calves. At three
years she gave birth to bankruptcies, and
the two following years to twins.
A pet doe at the Missouri Penitentiary
gave birth several days ago to twins.
This is said by those who are up in
natural history to be of very rare occur

Protesting Against the Census.

Protesting Against the Census.
Protests against the census increase in
number and in angry emphasis. The
Cincinnati Commercial Gazette denoun.
ces it as an untrustworthy farce. The
Governor of Colorado has called the PEG.
pie together to demand recount and re.
fuse to submit to an enumeration so
criminally erroneous. Portland, Oregon,
has chased the Census Supervisor out of
his Office and out of town. In Rich
mond Va, the city government has EN-.
ployed the police in an enumeration
which shows the most glazing frauds in
that made by the census officers. Yet,
says the Alta, upon such work as this
representation in the house is to be based
for ten years.

LOVERS STATIONERY.

A London correspondent of an Ameri-
can paper writes: A fad in writing pa
per is what is called lovers stationery.
1t is fine note paper delicately tinted,
the most fashionable tint being light
pink. The water-mark. to be detected
by holding the sheet up to the light, is
blending Of two hearts pierced by an ar.
row. In the lower corner of each fourth
page Tor reverse Of each second half sheet
appears what at first sight looks like a
blemish.
But this is charming feature of the
novelty; it is the kissing spot, for here
the correspondent presses his or her lips,
and thus salute is waited to the alb
sent lover. The kissing spot is about the
size of shilling (twenty.6ve-cent piece)
and is covered with thin aromatic gum
that imparts pleasing odor and taste.
A more ingenious bit of maudlin senti.
mentality could hardly be devised, yet
it must be confessed that it is Of just
such innocent and inane follies that the
Joy of human life largely consists.
