Ww -rnr- tockg man who kxew it all. Opio Read, who is a professional humorist, knows a sham when he sees one, and he lakes off one of that class in the following sketch in the Arkansaxe Traveler: George D. Prentice, while editor of the Louisville Journal, was often importuned by college men who panted for a chance to send n quiver through the great reading world. A graduate namod Edwards was so fortunate as to secure a trial on the Journal. Ho was u modest young man, and did not claim that ho could, the first week, take quite nil the work off Mi". Prentice's hands, but ho knew that after tho first month ho could take the place of the chief editor and discharge his duties in a way that would render the readers oblivious to the change. The great journalist had, by a very dear friend, been recommended to Prentice, consequently the editor was anxious that the young man should do well. During tho after noon of tho third day, Edwards went into Prentice's room, and, with an air of self-confidence, began to boast of his newspaper acquirements. "There is a great deal in the newspaper business after all." said lie. Mr. Prentice agreed was a great deal in the business after all. "Yes, sir," Edwards "when I was at school that there newspaper continued, I u&ed to think that a man could learn all about the -whole thing in a day or two, but he can't do it. 1 think, though, that some men inherit a kind of insight into the journalistic professional, don't you?" "It seems so," Mr. Prentice re plied. "Yes," Edwards lcsumcd, "some men have a natural facility for forming the opinions of others ; and, sir, the beauty of it is tho natural product journalist forms opinion so skillfully that the man who reads it swallows it, and, by George, sir, thinks that he himself formed it." "Very often the case, no doubt," replied Mr. Prentice. "Now," Edwards went on, "that's what I regard as journalism. None of your slipshod business about that. I suppose, Mr. Prentice, you have observed that I have learned to say things pleasantly?" "Yes." "That's one acquisition. Now, what next would you advise?" "Learn something to say." "Why, I I " stammered Mr. Edwards, "I thought that " "No explanations are necessary," said Mr. Prentice. Then, turning in his chair and bestowing a quizzi cal look upon the upstart, the man, whoso idlest pen-stroke was some times a gauging pasquinade, said: "Your foresight is too clear to enable you to become a journalist!" "How so?" "Why, you sec through the whole thing. You can look into tho busi ness of a newspaper like a prophet could look into the future. This in the cud, must render the business distasteful to you, for, as all strol lers will tell you, the most pleasant road to traverse is the one that offers the largest number of surprises a glimpse of shining water, a moment's view of rich landscape. Therefore I would advise you to give up tho newspaper business, for it will un doubtedly become distasteful, like a monotonous path too often gone over. I know that it would be a strug gle to tear yourself away now, but you should make the sacrifice. You owe it to your father, your mother, your creditors." "I know there is much truth in what you say, Mr. Prentice, but I have given so much thought to this business, that now, to throw it away and engage in something else, would be changing the course of a life would be like changing the channel of a mighty river." I Edwards smote his troubled breast, lifted up his mustache, put a finger on each sido of his mouth, and missed tho spittoon six inches. "I foresee the struggle," and Mr. Prentice, "but becauso a struggle is foreseen is no reason that it should be averted. Life is a btruggle." "But Mr. Prentice, what would you adviso me to do?" "Your foresight prompts me to suggest tho advisability of running a government. I don't know any thing about the chances for getting .that kind of situation nt present, but I do know that you could do up tho work to the delight of tho queen and to the taste of the entire royal f -household. Let mo see. How arc ' you in G,rcck?" "First-rate." "Probably you might get a situa tion as a writer of circus posters." "I wouldn't like that." "No? Well, how would you like to lloat down tho river on a raft, spend ing your spare moments in the Btuday of current navigation, sand bank philosophy, and the wholesome casuistry of ferrying who charged double price when tho water is low, ? sees one. and ho lakes oil one 01 4!b& becauso it Is low, find double price when the water is high because it is Mali 'You aio milking fun of mo." "Oh, no; quite impossible. I ennuot mako anything of you. Heie, Bill," calling a porter, "let in that other graduate and we'll give him a turn."
