A BIT OF SATIRE. Ihe Tipton Tribune Editor Dips His Quill in Caustic and Pens a Few Interesting Lines. The following is taken from the Tipton Tribune, and is well written: ‘ 1 he editor of the St. John (Kansas) Herald says: ‘lt takes money to run a newspaper.’ What an exaggeration! W hat a whopper! It has been dis- ■ proven a thousand times. It is a clear case of airy fancy. It doesn’t take | money to run a newspapar; it can be ' run without money. It is a charitable institution, a begging concern, a high- | way robber. B’Godfry, the newspaper is a child of the air, the return of a dream. It can go on and on and on, when other concerns are in the hands of receivers and wound up with cob webs in the windows. It takes wind to run a newspaper. But money! Heavens to Betsy and seven hands round, who ever needed money in conducting a newspaper; it takes a scintillating, acrobatic imagination, a half dozen white shirts and a railroad pass to run a newspaper. Kind words are the medium of exchange that do the business of the editor kind words and church social tickets. W hen you see an editor I with money watch him; he’ll be paying his bills and disgracing his profession. , Never give money to an editor. Make I him trade it out. He likes to swap. 1 hen when yon die, after having stood around for years and sneered at the editor and his little jim crow paper, be sure to instruct your wife to send in for three extra copies by one of your weeping children and read the generous . and touching notice about you. Forewarn her not to send 15 cents to the editor; it would overwhelm him. Money !is a corrupting thing and the editor . knows it. What he wants is your heartfelt thanks. Then he can thank his printers and they can thank the grocers. Tako your job work to the job j offices and then come and ask for half rates for church notices. Get your lodge letterheads printed out of town ; and then flood the editor with beautiful ' thoughts in resolutions of respect and ; cards of thanks. They make such spicy reading, and when you pick it : up filled with those glowing and vivid : mortuary articles, you are so proud of your little paper. But money! Scorn the filthy thing! Don’t let the poor, innocent editor know anything about it. Keep that for sordid tradesmen . who charge for their wares. The editor 'gives his bounty away. The Lord lovelh a cheerful giver, and He’ll take i care of the editors. Don’t worry about the editor. He has a charter from the I state to act as a door mat for the community. He’ll get the paper cut a.>nie how. He'll stand up for you when you 1 run for office, lie about your pigeon toed I daughter’s tarkey wedding, blow about | your big footed sons when they get a 81 a week job, weep over your grasping ' body when your shriveled soul is released from it and smile at your giddy wife's second marriage. He'll get along. The Lord only knows how, but an editor will get there. Order has been placed at Muncie for i6O car loads of window glass. It is the | largest order ever placed by one firm in the United States. The glass goes to the Pacific coast. Heretofare that firm has imported all its glass. Down In Dixie. Pilgrim "Is this the 1 o’clock train?” । Ticket Agent “No; this is last Tuer- ( day’s 10 o'clock express. We’re three days late now.” Pilgrim “Well, if I take this, when ! I will I get to Macon?” Ticket Agent (consulting table)—“You will get there day before yesterday even- ! ing. according to this table.' Puck. An exchange suggests that many myc- : terious barn burnings can be traced to bog and spavin liniments. Thtse cures : are composed largely of turpentine and iodine. This compound on evaporating ■ will burst into flames spontaneously. It night not be a bad idea to act on that ■ hint and keep all such remedies isolated ■ from anything combustible and the bot- ' tie containing them tightly corked as well. I In this day with the multiplicity of proprietary remedies and everybody prescribing them promiscuously one cannot be too careful in the use of the same.
