Nonsensical Textbooks.

A successful young woman journalist
was lately telling how she got her edu-
cation in newspaper writing. I'm the
textbook of rhetoric at school" said she,
1--WE We're taught that every piece of
writing should have first an introduce
ton, then a body, then conclusion.
Full of this idea | began writing for
newspapers. The first thing the editor
did was to strike out my introduction.
The next thing he did was to strike out
the conclusion. He left only the body
and cut that down till not much was
left of it. Now find that the rhetoric
learned at school did me more harm
than good"
The experience of the young lady is
that of all college educated individuals
who undertake journalism. The college
graduate is nothing if not modestly
confident Of his own ability to write
anything from an able editorial on
finance to brilliant piece of war cor
respondence describing great battle
in scientific military terms. He finds
his mistake when he enters actual jour-
nalistic life, and discovers that after two
years of chasing fires and police court
items he has scarcely as yet touched the
outer fringe of real journalism. He has
far less confidence in his ability to write
an able editorial than he had before he
had ever done a line of newspaper work
The first thing person entering
either journalism or literature is obliged
to do is to unload most of the rubbish
of grammar and rhetoric he learned at
school. If with the practiced eye of
the trained writer he afterward looks
through the textbook of rhetoric or lit
erature he finds it volume of nonsense
mostly The textbooks Of grammar and
rhetoric contain page after page defin-
ing things that do not need definition,
making the pupil stuff his head with
numbering rules that are much better
left off.
The way to write is to write. Plunge
into the middle Of what you have to say.
Study carefully the words you use. See
that they express exactly your meaning;
no more and no less. If you can give
humorous, pathetic, picturesque turn to
your thoughts, so much the better.
Make your language as striking as pos
sible without offending the moral or
aesthetic sense. But no rules of rhetoric
in heavens name. no rules of rhetoric!
You will unconsciously work out for
yourself your own rules. and those are
the only oneo that suit your case.

ence of the electric light have led him to
conclude that the electric light is deci 1edly

Good for Fat People.

We have the authority of Edwin
Checlxley, physiculturist, that men wear
corsets frequently when the increasing
size of the body below the belt gives in
dications Of what Checkley mildly calls
advancing maturity But anybody
may get rid of that accumulation of fat
which is dead give away as to ones
age, the physiculturist says. The fat
gathers over the region about the waist
because that part of the body gets no
exercise
The remedies proposed for taking
away the fat deposit are-frst, deep and
slow breathing; second, working the
muscles of the abdominal region in and
out. AS to the breathing, the fat person
who would be thin must stand erect,
place his hands upon the front of his
body below the waist and breathe as
long aud deep breaths as possible, ELL
ing the lungs to their lowest extremi-
ties" Then exhale the air slowly. Do
this ten minutes at time, morning and
evening. and several times a day if pos
sible.
For aggravated cases of fatness there
are several exercises, the principal one
of which is sort of wabbling move
ment of the protuberant part of the body.
and is described rs follows: "Standing
or sitting erect upon a hard bottomed
chair, proceed to draw the abdomen in
and out by muscular contraction five
minutes at time three times day."

1t required nearly ten years to build
the first ten miles of the great railroad

completed rapidly. This railway connects

HAPPY RAILROADS.

A portion of the state board of
equalization seems quite kindly dis
posed towards the railroads. The
assessment on the main line, which
was 81 900 per mile, was reduced to
Sc, 500. The road set up the plea of
hard times and diminished traffic as
reason for asking it as an absolute ne
cessity. There are good many farm
ers in Idaho this year who are only
getting one half as much for their
crops as last year. We learn of no
farmer having his taxes reduced on
the score of the returns of his farm
having diminished one half. Omnip-
otent taxation does not recognize that
the value Of the farm is to slide up
and down according to the returns,
and therein lies the difference between
owning land and owning railroad.
Be it said, however, that Governor
Mcconnell and Attorney General
Parsons strongly opposed railroad re-
duction and voted against it, but the
other three members constituted a
majority.

An Aspen, Colorado, dispatch,

An Aspen, Colorado, dispatch,
says.
Ex-senator Smith, chairman of the
financial committee of the French
senate, has just left Aspen for Park
City, Utah. The object of his trip
here is said to be to look into the silver
producing regions of the United States
in behalf of his government.
1t leaked out since his departure
that the bank of France would, if de-
sired, establish a branch at Denver, to
be controlled by directors compose of
Colorado capitalists with manager
from Paris to represent the parent in
stitution. 1t is said that they would
agree to furnish $50, 600, 600 to 500,
600, 600 or whatever should be re-
quired to carry all the silver produced
IN Colorado for several years without
allowing any to be sold until the price
should be satisfactory. There are
but twenty large smelters in the coun-
try and if majority of these combine
a corner on the silver production of
the country could be had from the
time France got the silver production
of the United States under control.
She would dictate the price of metal
to England for use in India and COM
pei all silver using nations to come to
her for money The scheme, it is
said, finds much favor among silver
producers and will, no doubt, take
place here if congress should not give
the silver men something better than
the Sherman law France don't
seem to be afraid of handling silver
without the cooperation of other ma
TONS but then she is so much bigger
than the United States that she is
safe in doing so.

FACTS FOR FARMERS.

IT is said that pyrethrumpowder will
destroy the green cabbage worm. Mix
a tablespoonful to a gallon of water
and try the solution.
CABBAGEs will thrive on nearly all
soils, and they feed on the coarsest of
manures. The plants cannot be cult
waited too frequently. The late crop
may go on ground now occupied by
peas.
The Ind lana experiment station con-
cludes that deep breaking and shallow
cultivation is best; also that stable
manure produces better and more last
ing effects on soil than commercial fer
tilizers.
The simple operation of throwing out
grain to flock of poultry may be done
in wrong manner. The whole flock
should be given fair play" by scatter
ing the grain widely and on clean

What makes the price of wheat?
Its scarcity or abundance. What
makes the price of money? Its scar
city or abundance. The man with Il
granary groaning with wheat would
like to see wheat scarce so that he
would get good price. The man
with a vault groaning with money
would like to see money scarce so that
his hoard will represent greater val
ne. The difference is that the latter
is legislating to make money scarce,
while the former is not legislating to
create scarcity of wheat, or to pass
a law repeating the use of cornmeal as
bread making article.

A EetalIatorY Policy.

A largely attenden meeting of
grocers and bankers was held in Butte
for the purpose of adopting retalia-
tory measures on the people of North
Dakota for their action on the silver
question.
Up to the present time Montana in
general and Butte in particular has
been large consumer of North Dakota
flour, but the recent guild bug utter
ances of the congressman of the latter
state has caused a feeling of bitterness
to ARISE here against the whole popu-
lation thereof and in consequence
merchants have decided to withdraw
all patronage fromthe Touring mills of
North Dakota and extend it to those
of Nebraska and Kansas, the repre-
sentatives of which favor the free and
unlimited coinage of silver.
