SEVERAL REASONS WHY EDI.
TORS ARE WEALTHY

A child is born in the neighbor-
hood; the attending physician gets
$40. The editor gives the loud
mouth youngster and the happy
parents a send-off and gets, so.
When it is christened the clergy
man gets $40 and the editor gets
500.
1t grows up and marries. The edi-
tor publishes another long-winded
article and tells a dozen lies about
the beautiful and accomplished
bride" The clergyman gets $40 and
piece of cake and the editor gets
5000.
In course of time it dies. The doc.
tor gets from s25 to slOO, and the
undertaken gets from $50 to 5000,
the editor publishes notice of it's
death and an obituary two col.
umns long, lodge and society reso-
lutions, lot OF poetry and free
card of thanks and gets 10000.
No wonder so many editors get
rich.

time TO celebrate. The invitations

some pieces of wood.
Two ladies were told to see who

At the second table there were
two blocks Of wood and some nails,
the contest being to see which two
