THE NEWSPAPER MAN.

If Won want a receipt for that magical mystery.
Known to the world as the newspaper man.,
Take all ofthe knowledge condensed into history
And cram IL all into one skull If you can
The wit of printer-the wisdom Of Solomon,
The humer of Twain or the Hawkeye's fend,
With quantum sufficient to dash of column on
ANY known theme for relief of the spleen;
The genius of Junius for vituperation,
The push of De LesSeps for carving up land,
A demonish deftness at ALTERATION;
The smile of a Chinese so "ehildlike and bland,
The bodness OF Bruce and the virtues of Madison
Satire of Swift in the Tale of a Tab
Pride of a Byron. the elegance of Addison;
Essence of "culchah" in vogue at the Hub"
The grace OF Boccaccio, as displayed in "De Came

Love of Cervantes for Quixotie fun;
Science of Darwin, the soul of an Emerson,
Courage of jackson at Bloody Bull Run.
The briiliance of Burke and poverty of Chatterton
The pen of a Perkins for spinning yarn;
The purpose OF Grant and the truth of Washing
ton,
Wild Imagination of DeQuincy or Verne,
The eye of Turner for eolors artistical;
Ear of Beethoven and voice of a Hum
Hand of a Heller for tricks that are mystical;
And knack ola SAKE at connecting a pun.
The brain OF a Bacon Inc logic Oh opehceF
Critical acumen of Poe or of White.
Shrewdness Of Gould than which nothing is denser'
Law of Blackstone-the love ola knight.
The bias Of Bulwer for things metaphysical:
Skeptical bent of a Paine or Vatare
Liking Of Anstey for things extra whimsical,
Tender humanity of the poet of Ayr.
The will of Napoleon the force of his legions.
Powers of detective of Monsieur Leeocq;
Subtlety of Satan in his sulphurous regions
And-a cheek that is harder than adamant rock.
Take of these elements all that's available,
Arrange them according to the very best plan,
Condense in form that's the most unassailable.
And the residuum is a newspaper man."

Economical Living.
From the Deadham (Mass.) Transcript.

From the Deadham (Mass.) Transcript.
One of the subjects talked and written
about good deal at the present time is
how to live cheaply. Prices of all the
great staples of life are high. Rents are
enormous. Fashions are exacting Wants
multiply, while resources diminish. How
to make strap and buckle meet is the
problem which presses on hundreds of
housekeepers. 1t is what is done to keep
up appearances that destroys the equilib-
rum between outgo and income, and
makes life drudgery and vexation. How
to live cheaply is a question easy enough
to answer if one will be content with a
cheap living. Substitute comfort for show.
Put convenience in the place of fashion.
Study simplicity. Refuse to be beguil-
ed into style of living above what is
required by your position in society and
is justified by your resources. Set
fashion Of simplicity, neatness, prudence
and inexpensiveness, which others will be
glad to follow, and thank you for introduce
ing. Teach yourself to do without a thou
sand and one pretty and snowy things
which wealthy people purchase, and pride
yourself ON being just as happy without
them as your rich neighbors are with them.
Put so much dignity, sincerity, kindness,
virtue and love into your simple and in
expensive home that its members will never
miss the costly fripperies and snowy adorn-
ments, and be happier in the cosy and
comfortable apartments than most of their
wealthy neighbors are in their splendid
establishments. 1t does not follow that in
order to live cheaply one must live meanly.
The best comforts of life are not costly.
Taste, refinement, good cheer, wit, and
even elegance, are not expensive There
is no trouble about young people marrying
with no outfit but health and love and
an honest purpose, provided they will
practice the thrift and prudence to which
their grandparents owed all their success,
and make their thought and love supply
what they lack in the means of display.
Those who begin life at the top of the
ladder generally tumble of, while those
who begin at the foot acquire steadiness,
courage and strength Of arm and will as
they rise.

Irish Wit.
1t was dark and rainy night in the

1t was a dark and rainy night in the
village of ", when DIR. Il
sat costly in his Office, enjoying the quiet
of the late hour and the volume of medical
lore which lay before him.
Without announcement or ceremony Of
any kind, a burly Irishman, of middle age,
full of wit and whiskey, entered, and seat
ing himself, the following cOlloquy ensued
"And sure" says Patrick, ''the night is
very stormy and the hour is late, and its
myself that is out of money and no place
TO stay, and would ye do me the favor to
keep me for the night? and may hiven's
blessin' be upon ye,
The Doctor, who had in the meantime
laid down the book and surveyed his late
visitor, replied: 81 am not prepared to
keep you for the night, and you will have
to seek shelter elsewhere -
The Irishman persisting in his applica-
ton, the Doctor said to him ''How is it
that a man of your age and robust health,
and apparent intelligence, should be wan
dering about without home, and living
upon the aims of the community
'Well, said Patrick, "when was in the
ouId country, and heard of Ameriky, |
thought it was a very aisy thing to make
a Twin in this country, but its myself that's
been disappointed"
Said the Doctor, "Any man who has
good health and good habits, and DISPOSE
ton to work, can always be sure of an
ample living here. and generally much
more.
But said the Irishman, Il have met
with so many disappointments and dis
couragements, that me heart is got wake
and my spirits is most out of me.
Tho Doctor, who had now become much
interested in his visitor, who was evidently
a man of more than ordinary shrewdness
and intelligence, rising to his feet, said
with great deal of feeling, "Oh, do not
talk to me about disappointments and dis
couragements taking the heart out of you.
Such things should only stimulate a man
to more determined exertiOn, and make
success in life more certain. And pro-
ceeding in this strain, gave the Irishman
quite an animated and earnest lecture upon
the subject.
Patrick, who had now been brought to
his feet, right in front of the Doctor, and
cycling him with all the quizzical shrewd-
ness of his character, and listening with
great Difference and evident satisfaction
until his medical friend had finished his
lecture, drew his old coat about him, and
resuming his seat, said:
"Then sure Doctor, taking your good ad-
vice, 1 shall not despair of spending the
night with ye.'
