I never look at my old steel composing rule that I do not bless myself that while my strength lasts, I am not at the mercy of the world. If my pen is not wanted, 1 can go back to the type case and be sure to find work, for I learned the printer, S trade thoroughly-newspaper work, job work and press work. 1 am glad to have a good trade. It is a rock upon which the pos sessor can stand firmly. There IS health and vigor for both body and mind in an honest trade. Ii is the strongest and surest part of the self made man. Go from the academy to the printing of

All girls that are so fond of having rosy cheeks can now be happy. The secret of perennial loveliness, says the London Mail, has been discovered at last, and now. upon payment of a fee, the rich, ripe bloom of healthy youth can be indelibly fixed npon the cheeks of all who desire it.. Credit for the wonderful discov- cry must be given equally to an American lady and a London tat toOist-to the fair American for the suggestion and to the tat tooist for having carried out successfully one of the most wonderful and interesting oper- atiOns of modern times. So far seven ladies have purchased charming complexions that will never fade, and many others have written for particulars. But the tattooist himself is not keen on the new craze, and when a lady wrote the other day to ask if the color would remain upon her cheeks after death, MT. Mac donald replied that it certainly would. Whereupon the lady, dreading post-mortem discov- cry, wrote to say that she would rather go on being pale than have people saying things about her after death.

 While writing, the mill of Cain Bros. is in flames. The mill and many thousand feet of lumber are a total loss, as they had no insurance. Unless they rebuild at once, many persons will be thrown out of employment. The loss is said to be between $9O0 and 5000. The mill was new and they had just begun to get orders sufficient to enable them them to run all the time. By the heroic efforts of the citizens about three carloads of lumber was paved. Capt. Dunn, while still weak, stood at his post and fought the fire from the lumber. MT. Ruffin worked hard to save the casing around the boiler, to keep it from falling. It is said the mill will be rebuilt. Mrs. Brins Cain, Miss Fora, and Mrs. Allen Cain worked hard, carried water, and when the men were exhausted, did not waver or stop one moment, but fought fire to the very last. They knew neith- CT fear nor fatigue.
