The Printer and his Types. Benjamin F. Taylor, the printer-poet, ,ys: Perhaps there is no department or enterprise whose details are less understood, by intelligent people, than the "art preservative," the achievement of the types.

The Terrible Roman Fever—The Perniciesa. Even in the earliest days it was the custom to wish a "^ood'' August and to make presents and to give dinners and entertainments. The reasons— lor there is a method in all these madnesses—is that Ausiu-t is the most unhealthy month in tlv year in Rome. If you escape the fevers until then, you can rarely escape them in August, unless pnheard-of precautions are taken, of which you soon get tired. As rest, sleep and good wine are the surest preventives pf Roman fever, the August gift# usually take the form of poultry and wine. If you can eat well, sleep well and drink well and never go into the open air while there is a ray of sun, you may escape the fever. But eat irregularly, and drink poor mne and go out during the hot hours, and sooner or later you will be seized with fever, and Roman fever is not easily forgotten. It begins with a shivering fit that shakes the very room in *-hich the victim lies, nor can the heaping on of
quilts, and pillows stop it
It sometimes oontinues for hours. The teeth chatter, and you -feel as

sud
denly cast naked on an iceberg. When the shivering fit ceases the fever commences, ana after that comes a profuse perspiration. The more you perspire the better, for
the patient aoes not
perspire he is suffering from the worst Kind of Roman fever, called the pernlciosa," whoso vory name makes Romans quatce with terror, for i$ carries one off in a oouple of hours. Native Romans think nothing of these fevers they do not even call in a doctor if all oes on well that is, if the perspirafon comes out all tight. They know exactly what to do, and the fevers have ilo more effect on them than that of keeping them in bed during the actual fevorishness. Between the spells, which return very regularly, they oat, dritak, work, walk and go to theaters as if nothing was the matter with them and will sometimes continue thus for more than eighteen months. They look as yellow as the lemons, the juice of which they drink, but that is all. With Americans and English, however, tho case is different In the first place we begin by being very frightened, and the quinine has not the same effect on us as it has upon the Romans. Our stomaohs reject it after a very few doses, much to the doctor's dismay. A couple of feverish attacks reduce us to a state of prostration. We are unable to lift a handkerchief. The dreaded "perniciosa" soon makes its appearance, unless we can be removed to better air, when the fever disappears as if by enchantment. At the first sign df a Roman fever, therefore, every American should leave Rome immediately, if only for Frascati, Albano Or any. of the other summer resorts which are at the gates of Rome. Doctors send away patients in their beds, if they are too weak to bo removed otherwise. The Hour.

The Ambitious Cloek—A Fable.* A COTTAGER had a clock which had been owned by his father and grand father before him, and for a hundred years had ticked off the hours with utmost precision.
Day and night, week in and week 6ut the old clook kept ticking away, and it was the wonder of the children and the pride of the parents. Although Its labor was wearisome and monotonous, the clock had never uttered one word of complaint and although its face was cracked, its hands rusty and its general appearance anything but handsome, it had no longings to be anything better than a clock and to serve the iamiiy to the best of its ability.
One day a traveler pascsd that way, having a music-box under his arm, and whilene ate dinner his box played its merry music. When he wentawaythe clock" was jealous-minded and discouraged.
Why couldn't I have been a musicbox as well as a clock?" it argued with itself. The box made faces at me because I have no music in me, and yet I am vain enough to think that I Know more of music in one minute than any dwarf of a box does in all day. I am tired of being a clock, and I will now delight the family with a tune."
Thereupon the clock began to strike and buzz and hum, and the cottager's wife cried out:
Heaven save us! but the old timepiece is bewitched." The clock tried it again and again, and when the cottager was called in he said: "As a clock, it was faithful, valuable and highly prized. As a music-box it is a horrible failure and a nuisance. I will therefore pull it down and sell it to the junk dealer."

THERE are two ways to treat this obstinate weed—one is to kill it and be done with it, which mode is practiced by a few and the other is to attempt to kill it, in an imperfect manner, with a positive increase of its growth. Among successful managers two modes are adopted. These two modes were each strongly recommended by two eminent agriculturists at a late meeting of a farmers' club, each contending for the superiority of his own way. One mode was to keep the land perfectly clean, with no chance for a plant to grow through the season. The roots wiU die out under this treatment the plants not being able to breathe above ground. The only objection to this mode is the amount of labor it requires, and tho constant care to prevent any plant from reaching the surface. For this reason careless cultivators permit it to become a failure, and denounce the mode as humbug, the only fault being their careless application of it
The mode advocated by the othe member, and recommended for economy of labor, is to attach a
leave."
in the Far WesJ, sometimes
make the acquaintance of wild animals which they are able to distinguish from their fellows for along time. Such a one was a grizzly bear which a hunter named Davis often hunted anil trapped in Nevada. Davis say« that he first got the bear into a trap in 1868. The Bear dragged the trap around a young tamarack tree and tore it to pieces, although it was a big, strong trap, with strong iron jaws fourteen inches wide when open. The .old bear came every night to feed on oxen and horses that died as freight teams passed He hurt his jaws considerably, and Davis followed him through the snow by his bloodv tracks. Coming up to him one day as he stood in some chapparal, Davia fired a charge of shot from his long ducking gun, hitting him in the shoulder, and the old fellow fell, but got up aad started off falling twice more. The year following Davis got him in a trap again, but be shook it off and escaped. That same summer he put his foot into Davis's trap* but it caught his toe only. He pulled the toe off rather than be taken, and thus gained the name of Clubfoot His track measured eleven by fourteen inchto. Davis says that the biggest bear he ever killed made a track six by ten inches. It dressed more than 700 pounds, and must have weighed 1.000 poundc when alive. He thinks Clubfoot would certainly weigh 1,500 when he saw him last He got very gray,

Type Setting In Japan*
It must be noioke to be employed in a Japanese printing office. In our own and most other countries of the world, except China and Japan, the language is written by means of an alphabet of separate letters. Among the Celestials and their next door neighbors^ on the other hand, each word has a distinct character, rite compositor's difficulties in either instance are obvious almost at a glance. In setting ap this note, he has the letters conveniently, arranged before him in what is known as the "case" But in Japan,- according to an American contemporary a fall fcr.t of type comprises 50,000 characters, of which 3,W0 are in constant use, and for 2,000 more there are frequent calls. Instead of being compactly arrayed before him, the type is disposed uhotot the compos?ng room on racks, and the unfortunate compositor has to wander up antf down the room, setting his "copy*' and stretching his legs, though he would probably be quite willing to dispense with the greater part of his enforced exercise. It is for the reason that it ia impossible to apply the system of single character
