entitled "Ars Recte Vivendi," by George
William Curtis, which the Harpers have
just brought out, twas suggested by some
remarks of college professor, in the course
OF which he said that about dozen of the
Easy Chair essays in Harper's Magazine
so nearly cover the more vital questions Of
hygiene, courtesy and morality that they
might be gathered into a volume entitled
AIRS Recte vivendi,' and as such they are
offered to the public" All Of the papers,
which are brief and pointed display the
grace of style, the sanity Of Judgment and
the fitness of feeling for which Mr.. Curtis
is remembered. They are, moreover,
models of the art Of editorial writing, and
might be studied with profit by every young
journalist One Of the most timely papers
in the collection might, indeed have been
written for those young men who have
adopted, or are thinking Of adopting,
journalistic work. 1t is entitled "News-
paper Ethics" and it presents very clearly
and simply statement of the place of the
newspaper in the community and of the
means by which its vast influence may be
directed for the public welfare. The other
essays are on the following subjects: 'Ex-
travagance at College" "Brains and
Brawn," "Hazing," ''The Soul of the
Gentleman" "Theatre Manners" "Wo-
mans Dress, '''Secret Societies - "Tobacco
and Manners" aud "Duelling."

Ye Foolish Printers.

The following incident illustrates the extent to which the printing busi- ness is. demoralized by "cut-rate" printers:
 A solicitor for a firm of printers called upon business man recently to ask for share of his printing orders.
 "Do you people pay rent for the premises you oceupy?" asked the busi- ness man.
 "Of course we do," replied the solicitor.
 "Do you employ competent men to do your work"
 "Yes."
 "Do you give them fair wages?"
 "Yes." tt
 "Do they get their wages every week?"
 "Of course they do."
 "Do you pay for your paper and ether materlalS?'
 ssYes we do."
 "Then you can't afford to do my work. The people who are doing 1t at present must get their labor for nothing and must steal the paper. Good morningw-Paeifc TypOgrGph.

 "Well, by George" exclaimed Mir. Bowser as he sat reading his paper the other evening, "but they served that man just right!"
 "What is it, dear?" asked Mrs. Eowser.
 Man and wife in Indiana sat down to a game of poker at their own fireside, and because she won a dollar of him he. broke her neck. The people gathered and pulled him up to a limb, and the coroner wouldn't even hold an inquest on tho body. Isn't it queer how some husbands act?"
 Yves" replied Mrs. Bowser, looking anxiously around for an excuse to leave the room.
 "The idea that he should break her neck because she held the best handl Hanging was too good for him. I was wishing only this afternoon that you knew how to play poker"
 "I-I do," replied Mrs. Bowser, though she bit her tongue the next instant for her foolishness.
 "You do? Why, I didn't sup pose you ever saw a poker chip. Been learning to gamble without dropping me a h1ht, eh? Just lay ing low to give me surprise party?"
 Mrs. Bowser should never have admitted that she had even heard of the game of poker. There had been a family row because she beat Mir. Bowser at fox and geese, an other because she got the best ot him at checkers, a regular riot be- cause she laid him out at euchre. She should have gone up stairs or down stairs for ten minutes and let the matter pass out of his mind While she was lamenting her bad diplomacy MT. Bowser got up, with beaming smile on his face, and exclaimed:
 Well, what luck! I've got a pack of cards and a box ot poker chips on the hall tree l thought I might drop over and beat Taylor out of $15 or $20, but as I came in he said he wouldn't be home this evening. We'll just have little game all by ourselves.
 "I-don't feel we'll this evening" stammered Mrs. Powser.
 ooh, ho! I see Afraid to play against me, eh? That little excuse won't go down, however. You said you knew how to play poker, ano so we will have a game. Clear of the table and get ready"
 Really, MT. Bowser, but my head"-
 "Your head IS all right and pretty near level. I don't expect you car play for shucks, but we'll have little fun out of it."
 1t was now too late for Mrs Bowser to get out of it, unless th' house caught fire, and they drev up to the table, each took dollar worth of chips, and as Mir. BoWse dealt the cards he asked:
 Shall we have any limit on thi gamer"
 q don't care," she replied.
 "very wellI We can bet tn extent of our pile. Ante up blu chip, and we'll make lem all jacl pots. You must have jacks o better to open on. Can you open?
 "I can."
 "You can, eh? That's rathe curious. Want three cards, eh And I'll take one. What da yo' bet?"
 "Two blue chips"
 "You do, eh? Didn't you SC that I drew only one card? Aren' you player enough to know that held up four flush or straight o two pairs? This is no baby game Mrs. Bowscr!"
 'Tll raise it four blue chips, she replied. "Well," he said, after glancin ' at her for half a minute, ''you cal take the not. but look out for me

New York's Greatest Scene


 New Y6rk's famous thoroughfare, Broadway, has been the scene of some wonderful events. But the one scene which still stands as the most remark" able, in point of enthusiasm, is Louis KossHth's famous ride up Broadway, in 1851. Kossuth had already seen and passed through crowd of 5OO,- 900 people in his triumphal ride up the great thoroughfare. The culmin- ating moment, however, occurred when the great Hungarian patriot reached the corner of Broadway and Ann Street. The sight that burst upon him staggered him for the moment. In the open square directly before him was massed together q quarter of million of people, and when this vast eoncourse broke into a united cheer Kossutb was fairly bewildered. No man saw this great event 90 we'll and advantageouly as did Parke Goodwin, the veteran New York editor end Kossuth's closest friend in America. MT. Goodwin was with Kossuth, and for the first time ho will now tell the story of the marvellous event III. the February
 
 Lcdies' Home Journol. The actual scene at Ann Street will also be shown in a picture by De Thulstrup, showing Kossuth in his carriage as the great scene burst upon him.

SHOULD not be regarded as trifing ailment-in fact, nature demands the utmost regularity of the bowels, and any deviation from this demand paves the way often to serious danger.

Science and Farming.

science is constantly investigating
certain subjects connected with cattle
feeding that help the farmer to under
stand his work better. An intelligent
farmer who does not avail himself of
the conclusions and researches of
science deserves to receive a sharp re-
buke In the way of disastrous experi-
ence. 1t sometimes happens that
farmers have been pursuing certain
course without rightly knowing exactly
why, and when science comes in and
confirms the experience, somebody is
apt to laugh at the investigators who
have just reached a conclusion that the
farmers knew from experience wears
ago.
Thus science has analysed every kind
OF food that the dairymen have been
in the habit of feeding to their cows.
and the result is that wisdom and ex
Ierience has been emphasized. Most
OF the intelligent dairymen have not
had to change their COW rations to con-
form to the conclusions of science.
Corn is conceded to contain all the
fattening qualities that the farmers
thought it had. So also has green grass
and succulent ensilage been analyzed.
and proved beyond doubt to be the
chief Matchmaking foods that could be
given to the COWS. There is also some
value in cornstalks and other coarse
feed. The nutriment is comparative
ly small, but the stomach can better
digest the fine, heavy grain food when
properly mixed with coarse food. All
OF this the farmer has found out from
experience.
1t is little flattering to have men
of science come in and confirm old ac-
copied views, but there is the danger Of
some reaching the conclusion that after
all science is of little real value to the
farmer. Science would be false to it's
mission if it did not recognize truth
even though it had been previously
guessed at by fool years before.
