Newspaper Yarns

5 Wellesley college authorities are
resentinH the story that a club Of
Wellesley students had agreed to
marry no man having less than
$4,000 a year. Apparently there
was nothing in the yarn but some
imaginative reporters jolly. But
while q story having such pictur-
esque color prints itself in thous-
auds Of newspapers, Wellesley col
lege would have to pay space rates
to get it denied with equal promi.
hence.
This incident again raises the
question as to who is responsible
for these pleasant ictlons that
spread over the country with the
wings Of the telegraph. often far
from pleasant to the victims.
If the country weeklies and small
er city dailies printed a tenth part
of the guess work and c%onjectures
that fill the columns of the great
metropolitan dailies, they would go
. into bankruptcy.
The metropolitan papers work
ers r protected by the complica-
ton of the great machine in which
they are working. If the victim of
a fake can find no ground for a
libel suit he will waste his breath
in climbing the stairs to get at
the man who wrote the story. He
can't h%orsewhip a whole city staff.
AS long as the business office is
satisfied with the sales of the paper,
the offender may get a raise in pay
for his original imagination. Under
these circumstances, the faker re-
ceives the call down from the irate
victim with tolerance, good humor,
and satisfaction.
Conditions in the smaller cities
are absolutely different. The pub
lie reads a newspaper, not for
pleasant and stimulating fiction,
but to learn the real news and
what actually happened the day or
week before This may show a lack
of imagination But the editor or
reporter who produces the other
kind of stuff would better 60 to
Chicago, New York, or other cen-
tiers where his creative gifts will
be recognized.

Tea Was Not Popular IN 1883.

A description of a model country
rector's household in an issue of the
London World for 1853 shows that
tea-drinking was then far from gen.
eral: His only article of luxury is
tea, but the doctor says he would
forbid that, If his wife could forget
her London education. However, they
seldom offer it but to the best com.
pany, and less than a pound will last
them a twelvemonth."
A few years prior to this the Fe-
male Spectator declared that the tea
table costs more to support thar
would maintain two children at
nurse: 1t is the utter destruction of
all economy, the bane Of good house
wifery, and the source Of idleness."

That Occasional Chord.

There are chords in the human
heart, strange, varying things, which
are only struck by accident; which
will remain mute and senseless to ap-
peals the most passionate and earnest,
and respond at last to the slightest
casual touch. In the most insensible
or childish minds there is some train
Of reflection which art can seldom
lead, or skill assist, but which will re.
veal itself. as great truths have done,
by chance, and when the discoverer
has the plainest and simplest end In
Invertebrates Dickeons.
