The devil met him andsHid: For many years thou hast twee the blame for the. bad spell injr. that tbo printer has gotten off in the paper. The paper has Cone for one dollar, and alas, the dollar has fulled to como in. The printer hat bedeviled theo for wagas when thou hasn't a far thing to thy namo. People have taken tho paper without paying for it, and cursed thee for not getting out a better sheet. Thou hast been called a deadbeat by the railroad conductors when thou baa shown thy annual pass to his envious gaze. All these things thou hast borne in silence. Thou nhalt not enter here." And as the editor turns and walks away, Satan mutters: "Heaven is his home, and besides, if I let him in hero ho would bare been dunning his delinquent subscrib ers and thus creating discord in my kingdom."

"Isn't thre any woman of the house over there J" asked the first bug cautiously. "Oil, yes, there is a lady of the house here but you needn't worry about her, as sho is preparing a piipcr to read at the next meeting of the club on tho aubject of -How to Care for a Homo and Save tho Hoys."
