Just a Question or Two.
An exchange thus dcBcanta Upon
rioting office bores, hitting tlio mark
0 fairly ou tlio head, we canuot fuil to
nppreetute, iudor?e aud copy. Heronro
a few of the innumerable questions
which printers uro culled upon to
answer:
Do you print both aides or the paper
at once ?
How long docs it tako to make a
newspaper ?
Suppose you wvito everything you
prinfl, don't you ?
Why aro those boxes of different sizes,
and how do you know where to God a 1
certain lottor ?j
Can't you print a picture ofaujthing
you want to'( 1 should thiuk you
could. Why cuu't you ? (After priut
iog some horse bills for a man uot long
ago, ho fuund fault with thern because
tho "cut" was not just like his horse.
On another occasion a gentlemen cam*'
to ub with tho iufo rmatiou that he hud
left his horse in front of the office and
wanted a picture oT it taken aud some
bills printed.)
If you print ono hundred bills fu r 83
1 Bupposc you will let mo have four for
twelve cents !
I should think it would be fun to be
an editor?ryou don't do nnytbicg but
nit. down aud read newspapers and
stories all day !
Do you throw your type away aftor
you havo printed upon itoucj?
You don't care if I take a handful of
this typo, do you ?
It can't bo very hard to set type all
day?is it now ?
Can't I help you print something ?
I wish you would print my nane for
mo; it wouldn't be much trouble to
- print off just one uanio.
What is this for ? what do you do
with that ? what makes that look bo
funny,? what are you going to do now ?
what for? why? what makes you keep
bo Btill? you don't care if a follow just
talks, do. you ?
13y tho timo a man goes through with
this list of questions, his company be
comes 60 monotonous that he cannot
fail to perceive its effects upon tho Iis
toners, aud ho walks off with tho im
prcesiou that wo have treated him uu
kindly and iinpoiitciy.
All tho abovo is to tho point, and
When thp qucstionor takes tho hint aud
lcavc'J of hid owu accord, we feel screno
But then, when, as occurred with us
the other day, a man comes iu wiLlf-a'
32-pagO pnmplNR ffltrwEfl backs toru
off," and '-insists -on us printing him a
cjpy of that same, backs and title page
included, for ten conti, because that is
ail the original copy cost him, we feel
disposed to explain to him the quickest
method of getting down stairs, free of
charge.
A Story of the Curfew.
To many hearts in the old country
that cherish its traditions, the curfew
recalls ft story of love's devotion.
In tho time of Cromwell a young sol
dier, for Eomo offeuse, was condemned to
die, and tho time cf his death was fixed
?at the ringing of the curfew. Naturally
such a doom would be fearful arvj^bitier
,to one in the years of his hope and
prime, but to this unhappy youtn death
was doubly terrible, ?iuee he was soon
to havo been married to a beautiful lady
whom he had long loved.
The lady, who loved him bo ardently
in return, had used her utmost efforts to
his -fearful Jiite, pleading with the
iudgefrpftud even with Cromwell hituselt,
but all jn^VijiD- In her despair ehe
tried to bribo tbc^d sexton not to ring
the bell, but she foV"d that impossible.
The hour drew nealMor tho execut ion.
Tho preporationswereNcompleted. The
officer* of the law bright forth the
prisoner, and waited, \\\\n\ the sun was
setting, for the signal froms.lho distant
bell-tower. \
To the wonder of everybody it did
not ring. Only one person at that mo
incut knew why. .The poor girl-hersclf,
half wild with the thought of'Jicr lover's
peril, had rushed uoseoo up the win!
ing stairs, and climl ed tho ladders into
tho helfry loft and seizod tho tonguo of
the hell.
Tho old festen was in his place,
prompt to the fatal moment. He throw
his weight upon the ropo and the bell,
obedient to j his practiced hand, reeled
and swung to nnd fro in tho tower. But
the brave girl kept her hold, aud ul
bound issued from tho motallic lips.
Again and again the sexton drew the
rope, but with desperate strength tho
young heroino held on. Every move
went mudo her position more fearful,
every bway of the b ill's huge weight
threatened to fling her through the high
tower window, but she would not let go
At last the sexton went away. Old
nnd deaf he had not noticed that tho
curfow gave no peal. The bravo girl
7?. descended from the belfry, wounded and
trembling. She hurried from tho chnrch
to tho place of execution. Cromwell
himself was there, and was just sending
to demand why the bell was silent. She
stvw him?
?"anther brow,
. l.i'.tely white with eiokening horror, glows
with hope and canrigo now;
At Iiis feet she told her story, showed her
bands all bruised and torn,
And Ih;i sweet young face still haggard with
tho anguish It had worn;
Touched his heat t with sudden pity, lit his
eyes With misty light
"vios your lour liyi-9," " ' Cromwell
"i-Vi-v ? il sd jjjit ring .* .tight,"
