Every paper has an alleged dramatic
'critic'-that is. every paper of con-
sequence. In great many caSes-too
often-they are not critics; they merely
think, individually, of the show. There
is no attempt to show how a certain
part should have been played; no at
tempt to set a, misguided actor or ac-
treSS on the proper course, but simply
bald statement that 'tMr. Flies was
not happy in his character of the vii

There's a god time coming, hope.
F. FIREMAN.,
The winter is upon us and "cold
weather rules are now floating around
in the papers. 1 have read some, and
endeavored to follow the advice given
therein, but gave it up as a bad job.
One mustn't talk when he is hoarse;
must not breathe in cold room; must
not go to bed with cold feet. but whose
feet it is not stated; must never begin
a journey before breakfast; must never
lean on anything that is cold; must
never ride in an open carriage or near
a window; must never omit regular
bathing; must keep the mouth shut
when out of doors-there is where the
pinch came, that is why 1 retired.
