Importance OF the Exchange Reader.


The man who reads the exchanges H.
a very important man, and, let me say,
too, he Is a Ilsjty highly paid man He
has TO read, N.o viii say, 5000 papers
regularly. All the newspapers in the
country come into the office, and he does
not do anything else. He sits at his desk
all day, and u pile Of newspapers. or.
say, a cord of newspapers. is laid before
him every morning. he starts to work
and turns them over and over to see
what Is in them He has to know what
il Is that should be taken from them
and put into his paper. What is tho in
scrcsting story? 1t requires judgment to
know this. 1t requires knowledge and
experience rs well rs talent. IL also re
quircs a sense Of humur, because there
are great many things that are really
important that may not seem 50 at the
first glance. and the newspaper reader
has got to judge about that. He must
always be ON hand and spend a great
many hours at his desk and he is pretty
tired when he gets through with his
day : task II is hard duty. but he has
lots Of amusement, and, as 1 said. he il
very well paid So he is happy. Charles

A north country fisker had fine
child. One evening beggar woman
entered the hut and went mp to the
cradle to gaze into the eyes of the babe.
From that time good health left il. and
strange look came into its face, and
the mother was tIouhled. An old Inan
begging for food passed that way. When
he caught sight OF the child. Le cried:
