lowing: "a new game called the Ed
itor's Delight is thus described. Take

one year in advance. What adds inn
to the pleasure of the game is
to send along the name of subscriber

your eye on the editor and if smile

charm. Now is an appropriate time to

The following item from an exchange
is cid, but there is good deal of truth
in it, "One man is struggling for JUS
tice and another is flying from it. One
man is saving up to build house and
another is trying to sell his dwelling for
less than it cost him, to get rid of it.
One man is spending all the money he
can make in taking girl to a theatre,
and sending flowers, IN hopes eyentu-
ally to make her his wife, while his
is spending all the gold he has
to get divorce. One man escapes all
the diseases man is heir to-, and gets
killed on the railroad: another goes
through half dozen wars without
scratch and dies of whooping cough"
