.Npthine In the Paper"

Nothing in the Paper" is the title of an old editorial taken from a scrapbook. The late Sol Miller probably wrote it. The editorial follows
 Frequently you pick up a local paper, and, after glanclng E at it wearily, throw 1t aslde' fefnarking, Nothing in the paper this week Did you ever stop to think what that phrase means? It means that in the week just passed, no misfortune has befall- en any one in the community; that no fire has wiped out neighbours worldly goods; that the grin angel of death has crossed:n no threshold of friend; that no man driven by liquor hatred or fear, has taken the life of fellow human; that no poor devil haunted by the past or mis- misdeedS of some other, has crossed the great divide by his own hands. So the next time you pick up paper that doesn't announce tragedy give a little thanks instead of bling be- cause there is no news. Or, if you d rather, shall we dish you up a choice mOrsel of scandal? Would your eyes grow round, and would you smack your lips with relish if we were to write up sensation? Well, we can do it. Shall we begin on you? Do you think you've got that little secret all locked up away from everybody? Well, if you could look over the stories in the edit OTIS little book, you would be surprised in all probability to see your name written there and further, story in detail which you fondly thought was all your own. Nothing in the paper? Do you long to see procession of skeletons marching by your door? Do you court such a pro. cession? We all have our fail. ingS, and none are immune"

Why Life Was a Burden to Him
 By Max Adeler
By Max Adeler

Some time ago Cooley caught young man who was just about to jump from the wharf into the river AS he seized him, he saw that 1t was Jim Kelley, and he said:
 Why, Jim, what are you trying to do?"
 q reckon it's for the best" said Jim. Perhaps I'd better not do it. after all Why, I was going to com nit suicide"
 "Suicide!" exclaimed Cooley. Why, what on earths the matter with you? Are you crazy, or drunk, or poor?"
 No"
 Tn love, maybe, and disappointed"
 "No."
 "Well, what's troubling you?"
 Well, I'll tell you" said MT. Kelley. ''It doesn't seem so much now, but it bothered me awfuly a while ago. Why, you see, was sitting in my room up in the boarding house there, and I got to thinking. I thought what if was to fall in love sometime with red-haired girl, and was to marry her, and what If she should give birth to twins with the same kind of hair. And s'pose those twins should grow up, one named Isaac and the other Jacob, and s'pose Jacob should want to go to sea for a sailor and we let him go, and he should get wrecked on the Cannibal islands, and the can, nibals should take fancy to him and adopt him as an idol, and set him up in a temple.
 And s'pose, after a while, he should gradually kinder get into their ways of living and should become canni- bal himself. And s'pose Isaac he should marry and raise a family of children, and one of his boys should go to sea and should be cast ashore on the island where his Uncle Jacob was acting as idol, and those canni- bals should kill him, and cook him. and offer some of him to Jacob, and Jacob should eat him and want more. And then s'pose the government should rout out those savages, and send Jacob home, and he should have acquired such taste for Isaac's chil. dren that he would get to nibbling at the rest of them and Isaac should ketch him at it, and suspect him and accuse him; and Jacob should then kill that other red-headed twin and eat him, and then eat all the children, and finally eat his mother and me, and then start out to swallow his aunts and uncles, and other relations, until he cleaned up the family? Tt was so awful that couldn't { bear to think of it, and so ! thought l would just block that heathens lit tie game by drowning myself before the thing went any farther"
