the difference Is between an umpire

vampire, Bah, but everybody takes a
shot at the umpire.

Editing q Newspaper In Hlndoostan.
There is no such phrase in Hindoo
editorial office as "the carking cares
Of the daily grind"
The Hindoo editor is an itinerant
tripper on the primrose path of dal.
liancei When the rollers won't work
or the whopper-jaw gets tangled in the
thinkerinktihus, the Hindoo editor an
nounces a suspension of a few weeks
and goes fishing!
There isn't newspaper in Hindoo-
stan that can brag about never having
missed an issue, except those that are
now in Vol |, No, |,
oBut, after ALL | like the American
perseverance better. In Hindoostan
II the hired girl fitted and she
wouldn't be real hired girl unless
she did, and a frustrated wife rushed
down to the newspaper Office to adver
tise for her successor, the whole fam
lily would die Of dyspepsia before the
editor got out another copy of his
newspaper!
The Hindoo way may be the simple
life way the way of longevlty-of-life
but II suggests that like the life of q
married man, one would not live
longer there-it would only seem
longer!
