81 know German editor" said q
newspaper man, 'who found himself
one night when the paper was about
to go to press without any editorials.
What was he TO do? 1t was too late
to write any himself, too late to have
any written. Like a flash an inspira-
ton came to him, and, dipping his pen,
he wrote hurriedly:
"'After carefully reading the edi-
torials written for the mornings issue
by four of the ablest and most bril-
liant members of our staff we have
come to the conclusion that they might
be misinterpreted by the authorities
and regarded as an attack on the gov
ernment. We ourselves consider them
perfectly innocent, but as we have no
desire to see our newspaper confiscated
we have very unwillingly, though, as
we think, prudently, resolved to with
hold the articles in question. This
must serve as an apology to our read
ers for blank editorial page

secretary telephoned him the next
morning that the paper had been con-
fiscated.

The Makinu of Diamonds.

1t is quite possible to manufacture
diamonds. Indeed a famous French
man Of science, Moissan, made very
large numbers by means of his elec-
trio furnace. His process was to dis
solve Jumps of sugar in molten iron
subiecting the solution TO enormous
pressure. Lump sugar may be said tc
consist simply of water and diamond
1t is the case that the diamond is mere
ly crystalliZed carbon. There are three
kinds of carbon-plumbago graphite
and diamOnd-the composition of all of
which is identical. When charcoal is
dissolved i'll molten iron, graphite Is
formed. All the diamonds found in
Borneo, Brazil, India and South Africa
are made in much the same manner
that is, by the action of great heat and
enormous pressure. Charcoal formed
from wood has been baked into dia-
monds, the enormous heat and pres
sure of the earth's interior causing the
beautiful white stone to crystalline out.
Although artificial distinct from imi-
tation) diamonds have been made for
some time, the cost has been prohib-
tive, while the stones have been of but
insignificant size and value.

Pet Poisoning a Trade.

Every town has it's pet poisoner if
you know where to find him." said a
druggist. "These men keep my stock
of alkaloids on the move. There is q
demand for the pet poisoner Suppose
your favorite dog breaks his back.
What relief, then, to summon the pet
posoner and have the animal slain
without pain. Cats and birds, dogs
and even fish come within the PROV
ince Of the pet poisoner. lie charges
usually a dollar Il case, but if you are
rich he won't object to charging you So
or $40. Some folks in their wills leave
directions that their pet dogs or cats be
poisoned, fearing that the animals
would find life too harsh and sad after
their loving owners decease. Some
folks, too, if they are going away for q
long time-making tour of the world,
say-have their pets poisoned rather
than trust them to servants possibly
careless. Mistaken kindness l call such
doings, and that, bet, is what the pets
call it too."-Cincinnati Enquirer.

"Either" and "Neither."

There are two or three things about
these two words that one should re-
member. In the first place, they should
never be used in connection with more
than two things-as: at was either
Tuesday or Wednesday," not "either
Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday" sit
was neither Tuesday nor Wednesday,"
not "neither Tuesday, Wednesday nor
Thursday" Then, either should not be
used in the sense of each, as they
walked on, one on either side of the
road" 1t should be one on "each"
side of the road. The third caution is
about the pronunciation. Some per-
sons insist that they should be pro-
nounced 'i-ther' and "ni-ther," with
the ''i'' long. But this is more an af-
fectation perhaps than anything else.
The best authorities agree that the
right pronunciation is either and
neither New York World.

"Pinched."

The humor of school and college ex-
aminations is' perennial. One speci-
men was contributed by one of the
high schools where girl in the de-
partment of history was required to
write a brief sketch of Queen Eliza
beth. Her naper when turned in was
found to contain the following SEN
tence: Eliza beth was so dishonest that
she stole her soldiers food" The
teacher who conducted these examina-
tions was puzzled to know just whence
this particular information had perco-
lated into the girls mind. So, calling
her up, she asked the question.
Why" was the ready answer, that's
just what it says in the history"
The book was sent for and the pas
sage examined. 1t was found to read,
Elizabeth was so parsimonious that
she pinched her soldiers ration.''-

Fastidious Smokers.

Did you know" asked one member
of a group in the hotel lobby, that an
Indian is much more fastidious than
white man in the matter of smoking?
l saw when | was in Montana several
of their war dances and the councils
afterward. You know, they sit in n
circle on the ground and pass the pipe
of good fellowship around in silence.
Each man takes two or three puffs
and then hands the pipe to his next
neighbor. But if you notice you will
see that in the whole circuit which it
makes the mouthpiece is never wet.
The red man merely lays the end Of
the stem against his lower lip and,
keeping his mouth partly open, draws
q deep breath. Removing the pipe, he
eXhales the smoke and then perhaps
repeats the process, but he never puts
the mouthpiece into his mouth in the
common 'paleface' fashion. If he is
asked to smoke peace pipe after a
white man, he first wipes off the end
of the pipestem where it has been in
the previous smokers mouth. New

nature of it, To begin with, it is the

which it will be full of funny cracks.
In addition, it requires a lot of sand
to produce it, to say nothing of the
hot air employed. The agents have
blown it pretty much to the commit
tees.
Another point of resemblance be-
tween my lecture and glass is that
