WHAT rs NEWS.

The Youths Companion tells
this story: An ingenious editor OF
large and successful daily, who
would be recognized as one of the
best newspaper men IN the United
States il his name were mentioned,
recently had occasion to employ
some new reporters. Many men
applied. all of whom he called into
bis sanctum, and, paying no atten-
ton to their letters Of recommends
ton, gave each one of them a
writing pad at the head of which
wac the question: "What is newsF
half an hour to answer that
question, young gentlemen. Then
| shall know how to make my
choice"
There was some lively scratch
ing for thirty minutes, and the re-
suit of the newspaper examination
was intensely interesting. Some OF
the answers of the successful com
petitors are suggestive. Here are
few of them:
News is anything that the gen
eral public ought to know
"News consists Of events that
are either usual or very unusual.
News is the daily record Of the
human race put into convenient
shape for the public.
News is the panorama Of the
world every twenty.four hours in
embryo"
News is whatever the public
will read and pay for"
News is anything from Jones
arrival IN town to the fall of an
empire
News is historical fact. 1t is
what occurs; not what is i'm
agined."
News is truth concerning men,
nations and things. That is, truth
concerning them which is helpful,
Or pleasant, or useful, or necessary
for reader to know"
This last definition pleased the
editor very much.
Each of these definitions is good
and it matters not which the reader
may prefer; according to any one
of them the news is found in
the pages of the DAILY ADVERTISER.

Food Wasted in American Hotels

The thing which, perhaps, strikes
me most disagreeably in the American
hotel dining room says Max O'Rell, is
the sight of the tremendous waste of
food that goes on at every meal. No
European. I suppose. can fail to be
struck with this; but to a Frenchmau
it would naturally be most remarkable.
In France, where, 1 venture to say,
people live as we'll as anywhere else,
if not better. there is a perfect horror
of anything like waste of good food. It
is to me, therefore, repulsive thing
to see the wanton manner in which
some Americans will waste at one
meal enough to feed several hungry
fellow-creatures. In the large hotels.
conducted on the American plan,
there are rarely fewer than fifty differ
ent dishes on tie menu at dinner
time. Every day and at every meal
you may see people order three or
four times as much of this food as
they could under any any circum-
stances eat, and, picking at and spoil.
ing one dish after another, send the
bulk away uneaten.

81, 900 Reward--a Humbugi

DoN'r BE DECEIVED by the offer Of Q
large reward in case some medicine fails to
cure you. If the reward is claimed, there
is always some way to evade its pay
ment; if fnever claimed, it isno evidence that
everybody, or anybody, has been cured; !;
but it speaks we'll for the intelligence Of
our people, that no one is fool enough
to expect its payment. $1,000, 900
might be offered with equal safety; for it
is needless to say that the user of such med
icines always dies before their proprietors
are convinced that he "cant be cured" Il
is one of the most deceptive schemes that
ever insulted an enlightened people.
We are disposed to give the public every
protection possible against the imposition
of scheming frauds or worthless nostrums,
but NO DEPENDENCE CAN BE
PLACED IN GUARANTEES. If Con-
gress will pass law by which all meli.
cincs are subjected to thorough test, I'D
their merits-in the diseases which thur
claim to cure-are fully established before
they can be offered for sale, we will heart
lily favor it. An honest remedy suffers
more from the failure of other prepara-
tions to establish their claims, than from
all other causes :.combined-as disappoint-
ment in ono medicine causes distrust in
many.

Marriage with Drunkarda.

The efforts to raise the poor and de.
generate inebriate and his family are
practically of no value so long as mar.
riage with inebriates is permitted.
Recently the legislature Of the state
OF Victoria in Australia has passed a
law which gives the wife the right OF
divorce if the husband is found to be
an habitual drunkard. II. after mar
riage, she discovers that he is an inc.
briate. she can also get divorce.
The husband can do the same with
the vito. if she is proved to be an ine-
br:ate. This is a clear anticipation
OF the higher sentiment which de-
mands relief from the barbarous laws
which would hold marriage with an
inebriate as fixed and permanent
Journal OF Inebriety.

Come aia2t. and G,anta,.s..

At all times and in all countries,
Kings and mobiles had fancy for in
Guiding among their retainers either
a giant or dwarf. sometimes both.
Frederick the Great had his corps OF
gigantic grenadiers; and in the Tower
of London may be seen a lance and
some enormous armor of the sixteenth
century work, which doubtless be.
longed to some giant knight or trooper
of the kings bodyguard. James /.
had attached to his person a porter
named Walter Parsons. commonly
called the Staffordshire giant, a hand.
some, brave and strong young man,
who had begun life as farrier His
height was feet inches, and his
portrait exists, engraved by Glover
Parsons lived on until the reign of
Charles l., and was succeeded by an
other giant, 2 inches taller than his
predecessor.
It's curious fact that the popuIa.
tion of France has rarely produced a
giant; Great Britain. Germany, Poland
and Switzerland carry off the palm;
and this may perhaps be attributed to
the prevalence in France of vege-
tartan diet which does not tend to
develop to SO great an extent the
growth Of muscle as does the stronger
diet of meat. The eighteenth century,
TO Judge by cotemporary letters and
newspapers. seems to have been more
than usually prolific in giants and
giantesses.

FRENCH JUSTICE,

fsesllsr systen Of Practice n the frsssh
Criminal Csarts-Nn On Ons siAs.
A French trial 10 the most amazing
feature Of French justice. The court
of ass;ze consists Of three magistrates.
q presiding Judge and jury. The
president of the court Instead OF
being presumably ignorant, or at least
Indifferent to the case. and prepared
to hold the scales Of Justice impartially
between the prisonar and the state,
has informed himself of the charges
in advance, and with his mind appar-
emily made up that the prisoner is
guilty, proceeds to get the jury into
similar frame of mind. He virtually
acts as coadjutor in the prosecution.
Having before him the statement of
each witness, previously taken, he
questions them as to this or that point
not satisfactorily brought out, in his
judgment, by the voluntary evidence.
He examines the accused. drags up
any former crimes that the prisoner
may be suspected of or known to have
committed. and enters into wrangle
with him on the subjects thus intro
duced. As the president presumably
has no interest in the condemnation of
an accused person, it is supposed that
his purpose is to extract substantial
justice from the melee which is thus
created. 1t seems, however, grossly
unfair to drag up incidents of child
hood against a man or a woman on
trial for a crime involving life itself.
For instance, Gabrielle Bompard was
made to acknowledge that she was an
unruly child, and refused to obey the
discipline of home, that she had been
impatient of schooling and shown an
early tendency to depravity. All this
is apparently on the principle of the
proverb about giving dog bad
name, and then hanging it The
lawyer for the accused dare not pro.
test, for he has no right to. The presi-
dent of the court is supreme, and ap-
parently regards it as his business to
convince the jury that the defendant
is guilty. Practically the lawyers only
function is to sum up for his client and
make the best showing he can for the
latter on all the evidence. But though
the rules of court and etiquette require
a lawyer to submit while his client il
being browbeaten, it is not so with the
prisoner.

The Fear of Disease as Pre-
Vention of Mortality.

DIR. R. G. Eccles points out that the
danger of diseases is as q rule in the di-
rect ratio of the ecarelessness with which
they are regarded. He says that
diseases may be classed as more or
less fatal as people are afraid of them
and seek proper advie to both prevent
and cure. Iipeople are not afraid, of dis
eases they act the part of fools by not
seeking medical knowledge, and skill.
and so give the disease a chance to
kill morepeople. Theravages of various
diseases, would be diminished to O.
q surprising extent if people were i'm
bued with q more wholesome fear of
them, and SO led to make use of
proper measures for their prevention
and cure. DR.. Eccles gives some inter
esting statistics in support of his
statements Not one fails to send for
q physician in typhus, yet only six
persons III a million die of it since ef-
forts are being made to suppress it.
-Four hundred and twenty-eight in q
million die of whooping cough, because
it seldom frightens patients and neigh
borly ladies of both sexes give advice.
Three hundred and forty-on in mil
lion die of measels because it SO fright
ems us to induce our friends, to send

twenty-five in million die of scarlet
fever, because medical advice is sought
sooner and more implicitly obeyed.
One hundred and sixty eight in a mil
lion die of diphtheria, because it fright
ems more than most diseases, and
sends people in haste to the doctor.
