ICuicag.i Hanild "Train Talk." "Yes, I've heerd tell on this amoothin' down the sea with oil," said a Michigan passenger, whose shoulder appeared lent down as if he had been carrying a bucket-yoke all his life, "but I never blered a word of it nntil t'other night I sat out in the sugar camp' 'tenia)' tho kittles of bilin' sap. A chap out in the woods all by hisself on a dark night always keeps his thiukin' machine goin'' bo at not to git lone-tome, ye know. Now, I s'pose I've bilod sap enough to make a snug little river, but no matter bow long a man's at a busi ness if he keeps hi blinkers open lies always gettin' new idees. llcfore tbe boys went home thnt night old Joe Stone an' I had an nrgymo.it 'bout the oil story, ''oe told as how ho'd seen it with his own eye, but he's always yarnin', and 1 pooh-poohod the whole thing, tut as I sot there an' watched tho kittles 1 11 be dod durned if I didu't have a revolution, so to speak. You know, in bilin' tap wo alwavs keep a piece of fat pork in the kittle, an' when a piece is cooked up wo hev to p it in more If a kittle Ins a nice chunk o' fat saw-belly in it ye can t pit fire enough nndur it to bile it over. Well, sir, that night it come to inn all of a sudden that it was the greaso out o' the pork risiu' to the top o' the eap that kept it from bilin' over smoothed the waves down, as it wero. I saw through tho oil-on-the-water business rigbt away. So nex' day I sez to ole Joe : 'So you say oil won't quiet a sea down, eh? I knowed he'd forgotten bis statements the night afore Joe likes to arify and be on the contrary side all the time. 'It's impossible, ridio nlous; no man ever seen such a thing,' se. J oo. Then I up an' showed him the fat pork and cap trick, and made him own up the corn right afore all the boys. First time I got ahead o' olo Joe for a longtime. Notliiu' like a little phi losophy even in bilin' sap." The Re-mark That Wait Lost. Puris Figaro. The proverb that silence is golden may occasionally be carried out in too literal a souse. A certain great lady in Paris aims at converting her home into a sort of Hotel Itainbouillet, and with that object gives periodical dinners, at which assemble most of the best known wits and literati of fie day. But it is a weakness of great talkers that they often insist upon talking all at once, and, to obviate this unpleasant result, the rule of the mansion is tliut while one personage discourses no in terruption whatever can be permitted. It is said that M. Kenan once attended oneofthe-e dinners, and, being in ex cellent vein, talked without a break during tho whole repast. Toward the end of the dinner a guest was beard to commence a sentence, but he was in stantly silenced by the hostess. After they had loft the table, however, she at once informed the extinguished indi vidual that, as M. Renan had now fin ished his conversation, she would gladly hear what he had to say. The guest modestly declined, the hostoss insisted. "I am certain it was some thing of consequence," she said. "Alas 1 madame," be answered, "it was, indeed, but it is now too late. I should have liked a little more of that ice pudding 1" A Very Peculiar Caae. (Boston Herald. A rare and curious medical case was discussed at the recent meeting of the Miller's River Medical association at Athol. A young man who had been all his life afflicted with cyanosis, or "blue affection," was found dead in his bed in Cooleyville, and his heart was brought to tue doctors for examination. During the prenatal life of a child there is a passage between the right and left sides of the heart railed a foramen ovale. In healthy children this pussage closes at birth, and, res piration beginning, the blood is forced round through to the lungs, and be comes purified and reddened. Some times the foramen ovale docs not close, and tho child is bluo, because the Mood does not pass through the lungs ai it ought. Such children usually die in a week or ten days aft ir birth, but here was a man 24 years old a Dieted all his lite with this disease, always blue, never able to work or take aotive exercise. Though he was a small man, bis heart weighed twonty-threo ounces, or throo times the ordinary w eight, an 1 the foramen ovale was almost an inch in diamotcr. A t'earriil H.hI. (Philadelphia, Call. 1.

Mullock, called on the old Scotchman and let himself loose, talk ing Carlyle almost to death. Carlyle listened impertnrbably, invited him to tea, and bad him to smoke in the library afterward. When at last the youthful sage thonght proper to take his leave, Carlyle accompanied him to the door and said : " Well, good-bve, I've re ceived ye kin lly, because I inew your mother, bat 1 never want to set eyes od ye again !"

THE NEWSPAPER MAN. A Lecture to Yonnar Men Who Wlah to Ileeome JonrnnllHt. Luke Sharp In Detroit Free Press. And here comes my lecture to the average young man who wants to be a journals. I think he invariably ap plies to tho wrong person it) a news paper ollleo. There is one man on evory journal who jui-t yenrns for something new, something odd. something spicy or somothing interesting. That man is the city editor. No pen can toll tho in satiablo appctito a city editor has for news in almost any shape. To show you how he loves an odd thing at all hazards, I will relate the following bit of my own experience with him. At one time, when small pox threatened to 1 ecotno epidemic in this city, it was rumor, d that tlio pest houso was not conducted as it oiiglit to ha-.e been. One evening, as the city editor aud roporters wero busy at won regular "Slaves of tho Lamp" I thought I would get up a stampede. 1 went .n with a roll of manuscript in my hand and said : "Well, gentlemen, it's perfectly hor rible 1 don't want to pass another such day." "What's the mattor?" "Well, I thought 1 would do tho post house to-day, und I've got a two column article on it; spent all day there." "(Jood enough," criod the enthusiastic city editor. "Thuts something that will take." ' "Well, it ought to. I have the state ments of the pa'ient-t hero signed in their own handwriting." "l''irst-rate. Let's have your copy. We'll put a six-line hoad on it." The reporters looked sort of chagrined, and seemed kind of sad that they hudu't done this themselves. There is nothing can equal tho ap potite of the average city editor for something that will "take." Now if 1 were suddenly thrown on the mercies of a cold world in any Amer ican city, and wanted to get on a paper, I wouldn't apply to any body for a situation. 1 would knock around town ond try to pick up somo thing that would interost renders. I would endeavor to write it up in an in teresting manner, and would take the manuscript up to the otlieo and leave it on the city editor's tnb'e without a word. If it were good, ho would be just as anxious to print it next morning as I would be to have it appear. If it were used, I would npply for the cus tomary 2 cents a line, and would live around at the cheap restaurants and try it again. If it wero not us d I could conclude that I wasn't the stvlo of writer thot that particular papor wanted, and I would sdoct another journal as the next victim. If none of them wanted the stuff I wroto, I would by and by get it knocked into me that chopping cordwood or some such oc cupation was my forte and not news paper work. If the work wns alwavs up to the mark there would bo little difficulty in making a place for myself on the sheet. Newspaper men, like poets, are born, not made. Jf nature has intended a man for a journalist be will drift into journalism in spite of all obstacles. He may have been educated as a lawyer, a clergyman, a doctor or a backwoods man, but be will be certain to nibble at journalism till ha gets caught. So, young man, if tho newspaper in stinct is in you there are a thousand omnivorous iron monsters all over the country that are murmuring their siren song that will lure you to your fate, and so around the cylinder you will go till it takes from you all that is worth having, w hen it will fling you romorso lessly into the literary rubbish heap, which might fitly be labeled as printors label used-up type "Dead matter." The ew York Crank. Cor. Cincinnati Enquirer. New York is the greatest city in tho world for cranks. '1 hoy thrive hero. In Talis they are snubbed, except when thTy write for tho papers, when they nre glorified ; in London tlioy are suspected by tho police; in Ireland they are shot; in St. Petersburg tliey are buried in Siberia, ind in Most on they become Concord philosophers early in life, and dovote them selves to study until they become too cultured for earth, when they die or come to New York. The cranks who are restrained in other cities of the world Hock here by common impulse. The police do not interfere with their schemes, the public encouraifo thorn, and the newspapers treat them as legiti mate sensations. Only one thing is positively known of the overage New York crank, and that is that lie eventu ally dies a violent death. Ths com monplace cranks are not of m much importance a men who just border upon crankiness, or who have manias of sulllcient originality to entitle them to distinction. t Xpert on Hlond Mtain. Referring to some recent export tes timony as to blonds stains, The Micro scope says: "Human blood cannot be told from dog's blood, except under favorable conditions, and not invaria bly then." Mr. Woodward, of Wash ington, says: "The average of all the measurements of human blood I have made is rather lurgcr than the average of all the measurements of dog's blocd. Rut it is not rare to find specimens of dog's blood in which the corpuscles rango so large that their average size is larger than that of many samples of human blood." When it is remem bered that the measurements of human blood by so-called high authorities vary from l-oUlO to l-40u0 of an inch, expert testimony on the subject takes on a serious aspect, and juries should re ceivo it with great caution.
