RIVAL EDITORS

Some years ago there were in Paris
two papers, the Razor" and "Scor-
pion." which were always attacking
each other.
Every week people bought the
Razor" to read how it cut at the
SCORPION" and then purchased the
scorpion" to learn how it stung the
Razor"
A certain philanthropist, feeling
panied to see such animosity display
ed, invited the two editors to dine, in
the hope that over good fare he could
make peace between them. At the
appointed time one lean, melancholy
man presented himself and was ush-
cred in. After an interval, as no other
guest appeared, the host demanded:
MAY 1 ask, are you the editor Of
the Razor or the 'Scorpion'?"
"Both!' said the sad-eyed man.
