The man or boy who is in love with
his work. does not banker after such
tinkling brass and sounding cymbals
He is a reporter always until given
right to any other title, no matter

editor or other reasons he may for once
contribute half column to the
editorial page or fhold down the
tripod of the city editor while the lat
ter goes out to his proverbial ten
course lunch.
He is proud of his calling of reporter,
because he knows that without him the
editor would be as an engine without
steam: the world minus the sun; the
beer without its foam as one
humorist expressed it-sAat, stale and
Improbable

1t is through Irritation, which has
advanced to something like a fine art,
that many maria geable young folks
lose their chance in life. Filtration
destroys confidence between the. per-
sons who indulge in it; it prevents the
natural growth of mutual esteem; it is
not thing of good faith. 1t is is an
error and love-making are Identical;
they are, in truth, antithetical. Love-
making is tender and ennobling while
Irritation is cruel, foolish and demean-
ing. The one is the prelude to welded
happiness; the other is inimical to it.
Young men and women should exercise
their reason while on the lookout for
suitable life partners, yet many of them
give encouragement to flirters-silly
flirters who are taken up and thrown
off, with results that are often grievous
indeed.-People's Journal.
It is gratifying to learn that Princess
Evelyne Gallatro di Colonna, alias Miss
Mackay, has made up with her old
man, the royal Prince de Craps de Dead
Drunk. She denies the impeachment,
but Evelyne Gallatro will sail for Eu-
rope to re-embrace and reimburse her
blooded ''Turnip." She sailed away
from Europe a few months ago be
cause his nibs had basted her en- the
nose few times, smashed all the
household utensils, and spent a large
wad of Dad Mackay's green. Our
American heart swells, says the
Caldwell Tribune, with a nameless |
pride in contempla ton of this business.
The good, sweet princess is permitted
to return to the royal favor. He prom
ises to be less denlonstrative hereafter.
What joy there will be in The hearts
of our co1ltrymen when they know
for fact that De Craps has softened
has gone dead broke again. Let US
sing and ne glad.
An irate reader has written The
Herald that the industrials should not |
be called ''hobos..' Let me see: 1 |

very tough. When a man in New York |
wanted to express an extremely I'M !
complimentary opinion of a thing or |
place, he would say it was tough as
Hoboken. If he had been out all night
and felt very shaky, he would say that |
he felt very Hoboken." The term /

boken came to be called hobos, which |
