To THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS:

the poorly printed columns. IL affords
him little comfort, and often, the paper is
lain aside, when but little information has
been obtained, after adjusting and read

Arrangements should be made that i'm

foreign nations, from our own national
government, political news, the Legisla-
ture OF our own State and the important
notes from other states.

ideas on the political situation, and any
important daily occurrence. The circula-

these will bring smile to the face OF the

TO THE EpIIoR or THE NEWS:
Question How can q newspaper be
made most acceptable to the family circle?
That n newspaper may be made most
acceptable to the family circle, it should
have the following requisites::
First-A newspaper should be first, and
above all, truthful; being exact even in
the most minute particulars, thereby
gaining an established reputation for
veracity. The majority OF people look TO
a newspaper as the best authority on
nearly every topic.
Secondlt should bear high standard
of morality; excluding from publication
any and every item which in any way
might detract from good morals; fighting
down liquor, gambling, secret vice and
the many evils which threaten to destroy
the home and family, for the safety OF this
country's future depends in great meas
ure.upoD the purity and sanctity of the
home circle.
Third-lt should contain the latest news
and strive TO give its readers condensed

OF his visitors, proceeded to assure them
1t was much warmer In Albany than In
New York. and relief was likely to be
soon afforded by thunder showers.
Well. 1t has been rather warm In

the metropolis must have felt refresh
ingly cool by comparison yesterday az

their mint juleps. they read the tele-

one hundred and twenry-six in the sun.

Resemblance of Married Folks.

The strong facial resemblance which
married couples often acquire after liv-
ing together a long period of years har-
monious in thought and feeling and
subject to the same conditions in life.
has often been commented upon. The
Photographic Society Of Geneva re-
Gently took the pictures Of seventy-eight
couples for an investigation Of this sub
ject. The result was that in twenty
four cases the resemblance in the per-
sonal appearance Of the husband and
wife was greater than that Of brother
and sister: in thirty cases 1t was equal
ly great. and in only twenty-four was
there a total absence of resemblance.
