A southern Ohio editor ventures to re
mark that printing offices are not run for
the fun of the thing. They are business
enterprises, pure and simple. It costs
time and money to use type. It is just
as logical to ask a newspaper man to do
nate a certain amount of cash to a pri
vate enterprise as to give the use of his
typ? without even an acknowledgement
There is a great deal of sponging in this
world, and the . printers are constantly
invited to make themselves .subject to
this process.

J. X. Robinson, Esq., Traveling Pas
senger Agent of the Wisconsin Central
line, was in Eaton last week. The Wis
consin Central is one of the best railways
in the west, and governed by the best
corps of officers to be found anywhere in
the business. .Its line will be completed
from Chicago to Ashland by the 12th of
this month, which city is a grand sum
mer resort with one of the finest hotels
("Chequamegon") in the country. "Hay
fever subjects would do well to remem
ber this fact and try it for one season.
The surrounding country is delightful
attractive and healthy. The completion
of the Wisconsin Central line to Ash
land, is a grand affair for the deer hunt
trs in this section of country, and will be
apt to catch the entire crowd.

Shyster Attorneys.
The better class of attorneys, those who
have a pride and respect for the profes
sion, despise to get down to the level of
the "fish-woman" and abuse men whom
against their own feelings are forced into
courts as witnesses. It is only the low,
skin "shysters" that do it men who
earn their living by prying into the per
sonal affairs of dead men, and women
who have been unfortunate 'and thus
disgrace the legal profession by going
further in pursuit of business than the de
cency of law ever intended. The prastice
of law is one that is supposed to be elevat
ing to the mind and conducive to the cul
ture of good qualities, but the Vile, inde
cent, and frequently vulgar abuse, heap
ed upon witnesses in many cases tried in
our court, by these "shysters" and rob
bers of dead men's estates, have made
them resemble more a political ward
gathering than a place where honest men
go for justice. A stranger dropping in
would .loneiude that the plaintiff and de
fendants in almost any case on trial are
murderers the witnesses the "bummer"
element, indifferent to the crime of per
jurythe attorneys "gutter snipes," or
penitentiary convicts and the Ju jge on
the Bench a stump, careless of everything
connected with his high and honorable
position, except the drawing of his salary !
- We need a Judge Johnson on every
Bench, who will peremptorily ' silence
the attorney in court that abuses and
vilifies witnesses, dragged against their
desire into the witness chair, to testify
and give evidence as to what they hon
estly and. conscientiously know and be
lieve to be the truth and the whole truth.
And who would blame the witness abus
ed in an open court, by a vulgar and un
couth beast, like the creature that de
graded the profession and outraged the
honor of the court last week in Eaton, if
he would step up and knock him over
with the first weapon within his reach ?
Persons rarely seek to be witnesses on
trials in courts, and when the "ipse
dixit" of the "powers that be" demand
their presence, they are entitled to de-
sent treatment and protection from foul
mouthed vilification and slander, and if
it is not given them by the Court, they
ought to take it upon themselves to get
it by that power which the Almighty has
put in possession of every man that has
a common respect for his honor and good
name. " ' .. , .

On Saturday night last about 9U
o'clock, while Mayor Marsh was stand-;
ing 'on the corner of Main and Barron
streets, William Evans and Grant Fields,
two colored inhabitants of Eaton, got in
to a difficulty. The Mayor interfered and
ordered them away, when Evans whip
ped out a razor and slashed at the May
or, cutting through the back of his coat
and vest, inflicting a wound about an
inch in length, near the center of his
back. Evans immediately fled toward
the north part of town in the direction of
lie depot, near where ho was captured
by the Marshal and put into the station
house. There was a strong feeling to
lynch the black desperado, and we don't
know but that it would have been the
best thing to do under tho circumstan
ces. Dr. Michael dressed the wound of
the Mayor,-and although not dangerous,
he made a very narrow escape. Evans
had a hearing before Esq. Foster, charg
el with cutting to kill. Committed on
lefault of $5,000 bond. He has served
three years in the Jeffersonville, Ind.,
penitentiary for horse stealing.

A Woman's Game.
ineuttowa ntnunei says : "A woman is
going around the country who is evidently
working a skin game. She calls on "the lady
of the house" and tells her all about a won
derful face lotion of which she is the manu
facturer. Then she tells the intended victim
that she has just undertaken the sale of the
article and needs testimonials, and says in an
insinuating way, that she would like to have
the lady use it and make personal acquain
tance with its merits. If the customer likes
it and is willing to give the desired testimo
nial, the glibed-tongued manufacturer will be
willing to pay as high as $5 for it. This
supposed to so prey upon the mind of "the lady
of the house," who is generally unsuspecting
that she will eagerly inquire tho price of th
precious lotion; and now comes in the fine
and artistic work of the female fakir. She
tells the lady that she has not made -any large
quantity of the stuff and does not know what
it will cost, but if the lady will only sign
little order for a bottle, agreeing to pay what
ever it does cost, the peddler will not chargi
her anything more than what is actually re
quired to pay for the articles" consumed.
the innocent lady nibbles out comes a book
and this is shoved at her with an urgent re
quest to sign. If she docs sign that order
well, the delivery of the beauty cultivator has
not yet begun, but when it does there is every
reason to believe that there will be weeping
and wailing and gnashing of teeth, and ff any
husbands hnd tneir wives short in their ac
counts they can lay it all to the face wasl
peddler. This smacks largely of the Bohe
inian oats scheme."

The Phrenological Journal and Science of
Health for July ha9 for ita "leader" a biogra
phical and phrenological sketch of Prof. Jas.
B. Richards, M. A. The portrait is of un-
nsnal excellence and the character sketch
must take rank as one of the best of Prof.
Sizer's instructive contributions to the fast-
growing literature wliich looks to the general
weal of mankind. The sketch is at once a study
of causes and their effects; a eulogy on the
greatest of greatness, practicalhumanitarian-
ism; a tribute of affection to a dearly beloved
friend and co-worker. It is especially inter
esting to thonghtful parents and progressive
teachers. The reader's sympathies are. at
once enlisted with the work to which Prof.
Richards was so fully wedded, and in which
he attained such remarkable success. Who is
worthy to wear "the royal mantle which he has
let fall?" Is it a fact that "Familiar Talks
about Phrenology for Young People" grow in
interest, or is it because the reader is being
coaxed into the editor's way of thinking, that
each installment seems better than the last?
"Dublin, Ireland," is finelv illustrated. "La
ter Day Pilgrimages to Mecca," "The Use of
Phrenology in Business," "Some Floral Gos
sip, are brief yet condensed tniormauon.
People of an Old Massachusetts Town" is
written by one who knows whereof she writes,
and the sweet faco of Mrs. Elizabeth Taylor
Ames, that illustrates it, will delight the read
er of the article. Every, young girl should
read "Whose Fault?" "Asthma" may bring
consolation to many sufferers. "Water Treat
ment in Typhoid Fever" is timely as-well as
sensible. "Notes on Science and Industry" is
brimful of good things; Editorially this num
ber of the Journal is np to high-water mark.

questions asked and answered are always of
general interest. $2.60 per year; 20c. per num
