Forty,Five Words Of wisdom.

In copying an editorial para
graph from it's esteemed contem-
porary the Orange Virginian, the
New York Herald is moved TO re-
mark: How cspitally our Orange
contemporary boils down to forty
five words the secret journalistic
surceesl'' The paragraph that
called for this praise is as follows:
"a newspaper is published for
the masses and GLASSES. A thing
that may sound foolish to one per.
son may be wisdom to another. and
that which tickles the modest
fancy of Maud Muller may serve
to tilt the nasal adornment of
Clara We're de Vere."
