An Editors Life.

ed of the sweets of that bliss can begin
to take in its glory and its happiness.
He does 5000 worth of advertising for
n railroad, gets a pass" for Il year;
rides SO worth; and then he is looked
upon as dead-head or half-blown dead
beat. He "puffs' a concert troupe $40
worth and gets 81 in compliments
ries," and is thus passed free If the
hall is crowded he is begrudged the
room he occupies. for if his complimeu-
tarieS were paying tickets the troupe
would be so much in pocket. He blows
and puffs a church festival free, to any
desired extent. and does the poster
printing at half rates. and rarely gets a
thank you" for it. 1t goes as part Of
his duty as an editor. He does moro
work gratuitously for the town and
community than all the rest of the pop,
ulatiOn put together, and gets cursed
for it all, while in many instances i

No More BIeached oysters.

There has been no recurrence this
season of the fad for white oysters
which prevailed last fall and winter in
New York City. The bivalves, bleach
ed to n silvery Wilderness, presented II
very pleasing picture, but it leaked out
that in order to produce this effect the
oysters were thrown into fresh water,
where they sickened and died. 1t was
also said that n weak solution Of sui
phuric acid accelerated the bleaching
process.
Fulton market wholesalers. jealous OF
the good name of New York oysters.
set themselves against the bleaching
process and declared that such oysters
should be classed as diseased and
should be Cnfiscated wherever found
by the officers Of the health department.

opposition, have returned to the ser

ALONE IN LIFE.
Bone of Us Must BE Contelt TO Be
Helpers. :

A visitor to n wooden mill in a manu-
featuring town was impressed by b
order with which the great bodies of
men and women were drilled to per-
form their separate tasks. There was
no Earring or confusion. Each class
fulfilled its especial duty. The owner
Of the mill named each division OF
workers TO his guest, and the wages
paid to them.
Presently the stranger saw Il woman
standing apart. idle but watchful. y
boy at the bobbins held up his hand.
She hurried TO him. and took his place
while he went IL When he came
back she stood again, watching. a
weaver at n hand loom tangled his
thread. She patiently ~unravelled the
knot. She kept tally for Il clerk who
was counting packages of finished
work. She tied a broken thread here,
or picked out Il flaw there.
What is that woman!" asked the
visitor.
"Oh, only a supply" was the careless
answer. "She is general helper. The
looms must not stop. She is ready to
help any worker who needs help"
But she has nothing TO show as her
work on Saturday night?'
NO. But she is paid her wages. She
earns them," said the owner of the mill,
significantly.
The stranger. when he had eft the
great mill, thought that the world In
these later days was not unlike such
an establishment. \ great deal of good
work is done in it, and done usually by
drilled workers, who move together.
Every profession and trade has its or
g~anization; there are countless busy
guilds and clubs, artistic. charitable and
religious.

an, who has not even FAMILY ties. She
Is an invalid, or poor and single. Pos
sibly she is the grandmother, whose
companions have died and left her
stranded in a young, gay world. Or she
Is the maiden aunt, who Is asked to
make long visits in the houses of her
kinsfolk, and who nurses, or cooks,
or sews for them without wages, and
sometimes without thanks.
Or she is the elder sister. who still
feels herself young, but who is left ut
