NEWSPAPER REPORTERS.
A Defense it Their Fair Mlndedness, Reliability and Integrity. A rery common errA- is prevalent that the work of reporters, given in newspapers, as a rale is not entitled to respect or credence. It is generally assumed that tlu: reporter writes chiefly or wholly to iimko it sensation or in sonio way interest readers without regard to facts, while just the reverse is the truth in all reputable newspaper establishments.
It is safe to assume that the statements of reporters given in the leading reputable journals of tho country aro quite as truthful as are the general statements from the pulpit when tho minister gets outside of strictly religious teachings, and very much more truthful than are the public expressions of most if not all of the leading professions. With very few exceptions the management of onr leading daily newspapers enforce truthfulness and fairness as the supreme attributes for a newspaper writer, and yet it is common for all •who are displeased with any reportorial statement to say that "it's a mere newspaper story." -It is true that there are a few conspicuous exceptions to the rule that governs the reputable newspapers of the country.
Not only are the managers of our leading newspapers entitled to great credit for the scrupulous oare they inforce on their reporters and correspondents to present the truth with as exact fairness as is possible, but the public little know the ceaseless caro chat is exercised in every reputable newspaper office to prevent the publication of even the truth when it would be more harmful to publish than to suppress it. There is not a week, indeed hardly a day, that the newspapers of this city do not suppress tho facts proper for public information which would make a most interesting story solely because it would bring a flood of sorrow to the innocent and helpless and cast an imperishable shadow upon their lives. With all the errors necessarily committed in a newspaper office by reason of the haste with which the articles must often be prepared, the public little know with what thorough integrity the newspapers, as a rule, protect the innocent even at the cost of suppressing legitimate and interesting information. The skeletons oi hundreds of households are carefnlly gnarded in the newspaper offices of the country, and generally without even the knowledge of the people who are thus protected.—Philadelphia Times.
SLEEP AND DREAMS.
How Apuilz Worked Out a Scientific Problem as Related by Himself. The letters on sleep and dreams in The Spectator remind me of a case in the experience of Agassiz, and which he told me himself, though it is recorded in his work on the American fishes. He was studying a fossil fish in the Jardin des Plantes, but had never been able to determine the species to his satisfaction. After a time he dreamed that he caught the very fi6h and without difficulty determined the question, think* ing, as he woke from the dream, that he would have no difficulty. But on returning to the fossil something in the dream had escaped him, and he could no more determine the species than before.
The next night be had the same dream and again forgot the essential point. He then determined to take a pencil and paper with him to bed and make his note as soon as'be woke. The dream came the third time, but to his surprise on fully awakening be found the drawing made and lying on the table bed side, with three bones displayed in it which were not visible in the fossil, and which solved the problem. On returning to the Jardin des Plantes he obtained permission of bis friend, the director, to chip away a scale of stone which lay on the spot whero the bones were in the drawing, and found them there as his drawing had given them. It is 30 years since Agassiz told me the incident, but those who have access to his history of the North American fishes will be able to read it in his own words in the introduction and correct my version if ny memory has in any detail failed me.— London Spectator.
The Same Old Story.
"Grandfather," said the young humorist, "can you spend the afternoon with me tomorrow:" "1 think so," replied the old man. "But what's the object?" "You are no doubt aware," answered the young man, "that I occasionally write humorous articlea for the* newspapers. "Yes, I know,"said the old man, with a sigh, "and I have always hoped that you would some day see the error of your ways and reform. But what has that got to do with my spending the afternoon with you?" "I received a letter from a magazine publisher this morning," replied the alleged funny man, "requesting me to contribute to the humorous department of his publication matter similar to that to which his readers have been accustomed, and in order that I may meet the requirements I want you to tell me some of the jokes current during your boyhood days."—Chicago News.
The Vanilla Bean.
It is not generally known that the vanilla bean is the costliest bean on earth. It grows wild and is gathered by the natives in Papantla and Misantla, Mexico. When brought from the forests, these beans are sold at the rate of £2 6s. per 1,000, but when dried and cured they cost about £2 6s. per pound. They are mainly used by druggists,— London Globe.

INVENTOR OF LEAD PIPE,
First Suggested by Robert Seydell of Pennsylvania In 1830. There was born in Milton, Pa., in 1S00 a man of wonderful genius, it i9 said. His name was Robert Seydell, and he died in 1847. Four children survive,, two of whom reside here—a son, Jacob Seydell, and a daughter, Mrs. Gray.
Mr. Seydell was a coppersmith and was almost continuously working out some device connected with the machinery in his factory. To him, it is related by some of the oldest citizens of this place, belongs tho discovery of the process of making lead pipo, and, like many othor inventors, the idea of making the same was stolen from him and further developed to its present form of manufacture.
It was in the latter part of the thirties that the idea suggested itself to him, and the following is the way he wrought it out: He first took a slug, or casting of lead, placing it on a mandrel, or rod of steel, about 16 feet long and an inch in diameter. The mandrel was highly polished, and upon this he drew or rolled ont the lead to the full length of the rod, thus giving him an inch bore, and the material was rolled, it is said, to a one-fourth inch, making a total diameter inches for the pipe. After completing several seotions of the length of the mandrel he soldered them together, making the pipe of whatever length be desired.
He put it to practical use by fastening it to pump heads, and also running it from springs to connect watering troughs and springhooses in the country round ubout here. Being greatly pleased with his discovery and receiving the most flattering of comments from his friends and neighbors in this section, he concluded to make his invention uiore widely known, and hence made a visit to Philadelphia, taking his device with him.
At the Franklin institute in that city he gave his first exhibition to quite a number of inventors, artisans and mechanics. As it is now related, every one who witnessed it was more than delighted, and so expressed himself in his immedite presence. It was not long that he was allowed to remain in a condition of supreme happiness over his invention, for a short time after he made a disclosure of his discovery, and while yet in Philadelphia, he found out that by the persons to whom he had given an exhibition of the process of making lead pipe his idea had been used and improved upon.—Philadelphia Press.
SPEAKING PASSING SHIPS.
Sew Efforts lo Revive Old Time Courtesies at Sea. The fine old custom of speaking passing ships is rapidly dying out among the skippers of today, and the general opinion seems to be that the modern master is, as a rule, too easy going to bother about anything of the sort.
Colonel Hozier, the secretary of Lloyds, considers that a deal of trouble and anxiety would often be avoided if captains would but take the trouble to speak ships within reading distance of their signals. In many instances anxiety with respect to overdue vessels would be allayed, and. furthermore, there would continually be news for the friends of masters and for the hundreds of thousands of others who are interestad in the great merchant marine of this sou try.
Chatting the matter over, Captain Froud, the secretary of the Shipmasters' society, said: "The practice of speaking each other at sea and reporting at every opportunity is, I am sorry to say, dying out among the captains of the present day. I suppose they are indifferent, or careless, and do not consider it worth the trouble ol hoisting the signals and making out tuir other fellow's. It is a very great pity that an exceedingly useful custom should be neglected, and 1 am plad to learn that Colonel Hozier is doing his utmost to induce masters to speak other ships and to report whenever it is possible. "1 am convinced that if captains can be persuaded to take the trouble to do this much good service will be rendered to the publio generally. This society is doing its utmost to get masters to revive the practice."
Captain Frond's appeal was strengthened by the picturesque evidence of an old time skipper, who admitted that speaking and signaling had beeu almost entirely neglected of late years. When I first went to sea," he said, "it was the invariable custom to exchange names and destinations and sometimes reckonings with passing ships, but nowadays captains don't bother. Sometimes a skipper is short banded and he won't take even one man from bis work, but mostly he doesn't bother himself about the thing at all. That's my experience, and I've boen at the game a week or two."—London Mail.
His Resources.
Judge Ermston tells a good story about a man he was questioning as to his being good to go on a $600 bond. "What property have you to the amount of $600?" asked the judge. "1 have $200 in a building association," replied the witness. 'Well, and what more?" "I have stock in trade to the amount of $300 "Go on." "1 have household furniture worth $90." "Well, we still want $10." "I have your note, judge, for that amount, which you gave me seven yeara ago at College Corner."

Talking it Over. When a party middle aged women get together alone, a common theme of conversation is their physical ailments. It a— •would be better if ^CTthese discussions of the ailments peculiar to women took place twenty years earlier in life. If a little of the prudery of modern society were banished, so that young women talked these subjects over among themselves, there would be less suffering among women in middle life.
Good health is the best endowment that a human being can have. Good general health among women is largely dependent upon good local health ki a womanly way. Through ignorance and neglect it has become such an ordinary, common-place thing for women to suffer from weakness and disease of the dc-licate and important feminine organism, that many women have come to look upon these troubles as an unavoidable inheritance. This is a mistake. All troubles of this nature may be cured in the privacy of the home, without undergoing the obnoxious "examinations" and "local treatment" insisted upon by the average physician. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription gives health, elastic strength and vitality to the sensitive organs concerned. It allays Inflammation, heals ulceration and frees from pain. It tones the nerves and builds up the nerve centers. It makes a woman healthy and strong, and thus prepares her for healthy wifehood, capable motherhood and a safe transition at the change of life.
I want to testify to the great benefit derived from nsing Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription," writes Mrs. H. Mason, of StrykersvHle, Wyoming Co.. N. Y.
