Getting Into Print.

A New York publisher, or rather a
gentleman editorially connected with
a publishing firm in New York, told
recently this story about q now pop
ular contributor to the magazines.
He, with his partners, was seated
in their private Office one day about
six years ago, when a gentleman en-
tered. He was in great distress, and
after some hesitation, said in words
somethinglike these: "ltis with much
embarrassment that l have an ex.
cuse, however, that l hope you will
accept, My daughter is a young,
beautiful, and talented girl. She is
my only child, and she is m%otherless,
l have spoiled and petted her, and l
confess her violent temper has given
me great unhappiness, since it great
ly affects her health. She is now ly-
ing desperately i'll at my residence in
Brookly n with a fever that we fear
will terminate fatally. This fever was
brought on by excessive rage, grief,
and disappointment because youhad
rejected her manuscript. She re-
fused to eat when she received
the news of it's failure to please you,
INDUCED in tears and cries, and final
ly worked herself into u delirium. 1t
is impossible for nc or her nurses or
her physicians to control her. She
says she will take neither food nor
medicine and will die if she can not
see her story in print, and as she has
always done what she threatened to
do, | believe that i shall lose my
daughter if you will not relent and
accept it,"
The poor fellow was overwhelmed
with modification after this confess
sion, but managed to stammer out
that he was a rich man and would be
willing to pay the editors handsome
ly if they would crafty the within OF
his spoiled child, and, producing the
manuscript, begged them to reread
it and see whether it did not have
sufficient merit to enable them to
print it without seriously rejecting
on their literary taste. The editors,
of course, rejected the bride, bnt, be-
ing kind-hearted men, valuing a life
more than their readers approba-
ton, consented after some discussion,
to take the story, my friend having
ascertained from the girls physicians
that the fathers account was abso.
lutely true. He also learned the re-
suit ofthe intelligence upon the young
woman, who at once took a turn for
the better, rapidly recovered, and as
soon aspossible beganto write again,
sending her next contribution to the
same publishers, so good
that she is now one of their regular
contributors.-Hartford Courant.

LOVES RUGGED PATH.

Mary's Lover lmprisonedin the Coal
Cellar.
The late DR.. Wightman, sitting up
later than usual one night, sunk in the
profundities OF q great idea, imagined
he heard a sound in the kitchen incon-
sistent with the quietude and security
of a manse; so, taking his candle, he
proceeded to investigate the cause.
His foot being heard in the passage,
the housemaid began withearnestness
to damp the fire, as if preparing for
bed.
"Ye're late up tonight, Mary"
"l'm Just rakin' the fire, sir, and
gaun to bed"
Chats right, Mary, l like timeous
hours"
On his way back to the study he
passed the coal cellar, and, turning
the key, he took it with him. Next
morning at an early hour there was a
rap at his bedroom door and a re
quest for the key to light the fire.
"Ie're too soon up, Mary; go back
to your bed yet"
Half an hour later there was an.
other knock, and a similar request ir
order to prepare breakfast.

Another half hour and another

WOMEN AND CIGARS.
Old and Young Have Taken to the
Weed in New York.

Old and Young Have Taken to the
Weed in New York.
1t is not q novel sight to see the old
apple women on South street or West
street smoking a short clay pipe; but
when a woman walks along Park row
in broad daylight putting on a big ci-
gar, it is likely to cause people to
turn around and stare. Such was the
case recently. The woman was Meth
er young, good looking nor well dress
ed. She was over 40 years OF age, but
she carried herself with a swagger of
an East Side tough. Entering a cigar
store in Park row, Just below Pearl
street, and laid q tive-cent piece on
the counter and asked for 90 strong
cigar"
"shall l wrap it in paper?" asked
the clerk.
"No, you won't wrap it in paper;
just hand it out here" and, picking
up the cigar, the woman who talked
and walked as ii she was sober, put
one end of the weed into her mouth
and lighted the other end. Then she
turned into Park row again and walk
ed up as far as far Mulberry street.
On her journey the smoking woman
encountered two policemen. An in
dignant and shocked citizen asked one
OF the policemen why he did not ar
rest the woman, and the bluecoat re-
piled that the nm had as much
right to smoke on the street as any
man, and as long as she did not do
anything disorderly he had no right
to take her in.
$50 into any Of the back rooms at
tached to the saloons around here"
said the policeman, "and you can see
any number OF women, old andyoung,
smoking cigars. Women OF that class
used to be great tiends at cigarettes,
but they seem to be taking to cigars
now."-New York Telegram.

Amusing Incident Caused by a

A writer in the New York Star com

She began to be disconnected, and
pretty DOT | saw her whispering to
her husband, who at once rose Ind

where he spoke excitcdIy to the CON
ductor. That worthy came through
the car, and, opening the front door,
said to me:
"You must either stop insulting

lady and said:

She looked at Inc for amoment, and
then exclaimed.

no Make T. Speech.

All the world wants to know how to
make speeches, particularly short extern
pore addresses. Colonel Higginson has
for one of his rules this, Never carry q
scrap of paper before an audience. There
as no doubt that a speech loses at lest
half BY being read When a speaker is
reading his manuscript he has no chance
to fix the audience with his eye and thus
control it, A speech, however, needs
none the less careful preparation because
it is to be spoken On the contrary, it
needs more
There is no such thing as really ex-
tempore speaking. The only way to get
q reputation for it is to be always ready.
When you expect to speak, prepare your
remarks very carefully beforehand. Sit
down quietly and preach it all over to
yourself. Do this several times If You
are novice. Put down nothing ON
paper beyond the mere heads and make
them very short. Then, when you are
called, rise and say what you can re-
member of the brilliant grafton you had
all prepared in your mind. You will
probably forget half of it or more at
first, but your audience will not know
that. Wendell Phillips said he never
made speech in his life that he did not
forget and leave out the best points in it,
and If that was the case with him, others
need not be discouraged It is better to
leave out some than to read your speech
from paper. AS you progress you will
find that you forget less and less.
Professor Churchill, Of Andover Thee.
logical seminary, gives some valuable
suggestions on public speaking, as fol-
lows:
AS you rise to speak cast your eyes easily over
the audience for few seconds, then fix them
upon the sfarthest auditors directly in front OF
you, and begin to speak in a pleasant tone OF
voice and with an easy naturalness of manner
Regulate the pitch" and force of voice by
actually talking to your farthest auditors The
Introductory matter should be delivered as il
conversing with people at that distance. Al
the opening of your address you do not need to
attempt anything more than to make the most
distant listeners hear you distinctly and with
out effort on their part In order to do this:
Enunciate deliberately is, take suffi-
Gent time to utter every syllable that correct
standard OF pronunciation demands should be
enunciated. The great Mrs. Siddons' prime
rule was, Take time" Be especially careful
to take time'' during the delivery of the first
half dozen sentences. The characteristic OF
good speaking in the Introductory matter is
deliberateness. Much of your success will de-
pend upon starting right
IN fXyln he ratn ho
| that is, talk to the people in your own way
only with the increased earnestness that arise;
| from yorr deep interest in the subject and
your desire to benefit your audience, and with
the effect which comes from the reflex infu.
ence of the sympathetic attention of the audi.
ence upon your feelings.
The perfection of public speaking is the per.
lection of talking to people earnestly. 1t is the
tone and manner of good conversation raised
to its highest power.

City Treasurer.

If Horace Greeley were living today
he would change his renowned advice
and now say, $50 south, young man,
and grow up with the country" The
most promising field for manufactures
and industries of many kinds is in the
former slave states. There has been
nothing in history to exceed the indus
trial growth of certain portions of the
south in the past five years. The new
south, redeemed, regenerated, rich, pop
ulous and powerful, stands forth splen-
did and holds out her hands filed with
opportunities for plucky and Industrious
people. For the first time in the
history of America Pennsylvania finds
herself passed and distanced as an iron
state. Alabama now produces annually
more iron ore than Pennsylvania. We
thought we were great people in 1870,
and that we had uncommonly rich iron
mines, yet today the south alone makes
more pig iron than the whole country
did in 1870. Fact. The British iron
manufacturers who made a tour of this
country a year or two ago when their
society met here prophesied that the
south was soon to become the iron pro-
ducing center of the world The proph-
ecy has come true already.
