THE SUNNY SIDE OF LIFE. LAUGHTER THAT MAKES ONE FORGET THE DAILY GRIND. The Different Standards of Humor—In Olden Times When Ideas Were Driven Into Pates with Bludgeons—Humorists Pass Away and Are Forgotten. "Why we laugh" is a question often asked, but the sources of laughter are so many and lie so far apart that it would be no light task to enumerate them. The jest has not all seasons for its own. A large and respectable class of persons are unable to recognize a joke as such, unless they see it duly labeled in the "funny column." But if you are "no such man," the veriest trifle may set you off, and cause you to quake helplessly with mirth. You grin when you find that your friend is described in the morning paper as having had "houses," instead of "honors," showered upon him; or when, in his sonnet, the "viewless train of poesy" masquerades as the "viewless train of palsy." Yet were the case your own, there would be nothing diverting in it; for no matter how robust your sense of humor may be, it will scarcely carry you far enough to make you appreciate a joke of that sort at your own expense. If a goat or a dog marches into church, a subdued titter runs through the congregation—either because of the incongruousness of such an episode, or because anything that breaks off a long continued train of thought is welcome. Intercourse with those unconscious humorists whose blunders and absurdities are treasure trove to their acquaintances yields a double sense of gratification, not only amusement, but a soothing consciousness of your own superior mental qualities. But whatsoever the provocation, if you are not in the mood the jolliest quip falls flat; for sorrow is more easily compelled than mirth. We hear of crocodile tears, but never of crocodile laughter, though the genus is noted for fine teeth. You can, at a pinch, weep with those who weep; but to counterfeit enjoyment of their old stories would be a much more difficult matter. DIFFERING STANDARDS. Each grade of society seems to have its own standard of humor. The delicate finesse of polished wit, as exemplified by "The School for Scandal," worthy staged and acted, is lost upon the discipline of McGinty. It can be imagined that primitive man's conception of a jest must have been of the same crude nature, and that the grimace of pain or the spectacle of a follow stumbling into a ditch was needed to call forth his infrequent guffaw. Hence, probably, the growth of the practical joke. We can mark the traces of such rough-and-roughness as a newsboy. How He First Appreciated Electricity and Incidentally Made a Stake. The following is one of the "Talks with Edison" which George Parsons Lathrop reports in Harper's Magazine. "At the beginning of the civil war," said Mr. Edison, "I was slaving late and early at selling papers; but, to tell the truth, I was not making a fortune. I worked on so small a margin that I had to be mighty careful not to overload myself with papers that I couldn't sell. On the other hand, I could not afford to carry so few that I should find myself sold out long before the end of the trip. To enable myself to hit the happy mean, I formed a plan which turned out admirably. I made a friend of one of the compositors In The Free Press office, and persuaded him to show me every day a 'galley proof' of the most important news article. From a study of its headlines I soon learned to gauge the value of the day's news and its selling capacity, so that I could form a tolerably correct estimate of the number of papers I should need. As a rule, I could dispose of about 200; but if there was any special news from the seat of war, the sale ran up to $300 or over. Well, one day my compositor brought me a proof slip of which nearly the whole was taken up with a gigantic display head. It was the first report of the battle of Pittsburgh Landing—afterward called Shiloh, you know—and it gave the number of killed and wounded as 60,000 men! "I grasped the situation at once. Here was a chance for enormous sales, if only the people along the line could know what had happened; if only they could see the proof slip I was then reading! Suddenly an idea occurred to me. I rushed off to the telegraph operator and gravelly made a proposition to him, which he received just as gravelly. He, on his part, was to wire to each of the principal stations on our route, asking the station master to chalk upon the black bulletin board—used for announcing the times of arrival and departure of trains—the news of the great battle with its accompanying slaughter. This he was to do at once; while I agreed, in return, to supply him 'free, gratis, for nothing,' a Harper's Weekly, a Harper's Monthly, and a daily evening paper during the next six months from that date. "This bargain struck, I began to bethink me how I was to get enough papers to make the grand coup I intended. I had very little cash, and, I feared, still less credit. I went to the superintendent of the delivery department and proffered a modest request for 1,000 copies of The Free Press on trust. But I was not much surprised when my request was curtly and gruffly refused. In-those days, though, I was a pretty cheeky boy, and I felt desperate, for I saw a small fortune in prospect if my telegraph operator had kept his word—a point on which I was still a trifle doubtful. Nervying myself for a great stroke." DIFFERING STANDARDS. Each grade of society seems to have its own standard of humor. The delicate finesse of polished wit, as exemplified by "The School for Scandal" or "The Rivals," worthy staged and acted, is lost upon the discipline of McGinty. It can be imagined that primitive man's conception of a jest must have been of the same crude nature, and that the grimace of pain or the spectacle of a fellow stumbling into a ditch was needed to call forth his infrequent guffaw. Hence, probably, the growth of the practical joke. We can mark the traces of such rough-and-tumble ideas of wit in the horse play of the old novels and comedies. The jests were driven in with a bludgeon. Cracked pates and bleeding noses spoke more forcibly to the groundlings than the swift thrust and parry of dialogue; if one person tripped and tumbled it was irresistibly droll, and when two or three sprawled in a heap the mirth became boisterous. Such a simple method of quadrupling humorous effects must have been a boon to the dramatist. The public of that time laughed because they felt like it, after the manner of children; but today, since we have stopped to ask ourselves why we laugh, our laughter has naturally become less loud and frequent. Nothing better illustrates this change of standpoint than the recent theory that Omar Khayam's praises of love and wine are really chants of religious ecstasy. Regarding Don Quixote rather as a pathetic than a comic figure, we find it hard to understand how the recital of his misadventures "laughed Spain's chivalry away." Our ideas of what is laughworthy shift with age. "Verdant Green," with its jolly adventures of Bouncer- and "Gig Lamps," Charley Larkins and. Pretty Patty Honeywood, Fair and sweet and plump, is side splitting at fifteen, but do not spoil a cheerful memory by attempting it again at thirty. "Midshipman Easy" is another essentially young book. The middle aged man who can still grow hilarious over "Pickwick" has preserved a childlikeness of heart that should be envied, not despised. To careless youth the quarrels, the love making, the merry poverty and queer makeshift of Mimi and Rudolphe, Musetto and Marcel, who figure in Murger's "Sconce de la Vie de Boheme," may seem pretty enough, but at fifty we pause to question. "What of the decline of such lives?" Perhaps Murger realized this when he "killed off" several of his charming gretles in the flower of their days. But while time has no chemical action upon the eternal charm of wit, nothing so soon becomes musty and out of date as humor. IN THE FILE WITH DOESTICKS. Last year's humorist has often vanished as utterly as last year's snow flakes. Will the drooling of Mark Twain and the delicious absurdity of Bill Nye be swept away into that same rubbish heap where Doesticks and John Phoenix and the rest lie buried! We pay the tribute to a silent and sometimes a bitter smile to the nimble cleverness of French wit, so utterly unlike the good natured, dancing bear clumsiness of German humor. Who can imagine being stirred to uproaring mirth by Gavarni's pictures? That great portrait gallery of his, D'Apres Nature, cuts almost too close to the quick of human life to be amusing. With what subtlety he manages to hint at something wicked and sinister amid the curves and dimples of his exquisitely pretty women. With what a profound, cynical insight into human nature he has contrived to write a Harper's Weekly, a Harper's Monthly, and a daily evening paper during the next six months from that date. “This bargain struck, I began to bethink me how I was to get enough papers to make the grand coup I intended. I had very little cash, and I feared, still less credit. I went to the superintendent of the delivery department and proffered a modest request for 1,000 copies of The Free Press on trust. But I was not much surprised when my request was curtly and gruffly refused. In-those days, though, I was a pretty cheeky boy, and I felt desperate, for I saw a small fortune in prospect if my telegraph operator had kept his word—a point on which I was still a trifle doubtful. Nerving myself for a great stroke, I marched upstairs into the office of Wilbur F. Storey himself, and asked to see him. A few minutes later I was shown in to him. I told him who I was, and that I wanted 1,500 copies of the paper on credit. The tall; thin, dark eyed, ascetic looking man stared at me for a moment, and then scratched a few words on a slip of paper. 'Take that down stairs,' said he, 'and you will get what you want.' And so I did. Then I felt happier than I have ever felt since. "I took my 1,500 papers, got three boys to help me fold them, and mounted the train, all agog to find out whether the telegraph operator had kept his word. At the town where our first stop was made I usually sold two papers. As the train swung into that station I looked ahead, and thought there must be a riot going on. A big crowd filled the platform, and as the train drew up I began to realize that they wanted my papers. Before we left I had sold a hundred or two at five cents apiece. At the next station the place was fairly black with people. I raised the ante, and sold 800 papers at ten cents each. So it went on until Port Huron was reached. Then I transferred my remaining stock to the wagon which always waited for me there, hired a small boy to sit on the pile of papers in the back of the wagon, so as to discount any pilfering, and sold out every paper I had at a quarter of a dollar or more per copy. I remember I passed a church full of worshipers, and stopped to yell out my news. In ten seconds there was not a soul left in meeting. All of them, including the parson, were clustered around me, blinding against each other for copies of the precious paper. “You can understand why it struck me then that the telegraph must be about the best thing going, for it was the telegraphic noticees on the bulletin boards that had done the trick. I determined at once to become a telegraph operator. But if it hadn’t been for Wilbur F. Storey I should never have fully appreciated the wonders of electrical science.” Letter from a Leper. The Detroit Free Press gives these extracts from a farewell letter of a leper in Molokai to a relative in that city: "This is one of the liveliest places I have ever seen. Lepers are full of hilarity. Girls, boys, children—some very bad—all playing together as if there was nothing wrong. They play the guitar and flute constantly. When I first came here and had to go through a row of lepers with their hideous faces and hands I wanted to die, but now I am used to them I don’t mind them so much. “When I first came up here I wanted to commit suicide, but I am calmed down now. I have built a neat little cottage some distance away from everybody, all inclosed with a stone wall. I have a horse and sulky, plenty of newspapers and magazines. My great trouble now is my eyesight. When I can't read any more then I want to die. I would sooner be here with this disease than in We pay the tribute of a silent and sometimes a bitter smile to the nimble cleverness of French wit, so utterly unlike the quick nature, dancing bear clumsiness of German humor.

With what subtlety he manages to hint at something wicked and sinister amid the curves and dimples of his exquisitely pretty women. With what a profound, cynical insight into human nature he has contrived to write a whole history of character and circumstance upon each face—the youth so good for nothing that his parents think of making an artist of him; the dandin, with his foolish profile; the fatously important workman whose marriage with Picheux's daughter has been interfered with "by the government," the forlorn, frowning headed creature, with her ragged broom over her shoulder—what evil youth has led to this foul old age—who has "figure dans les ballets;" the fishwife, with arms akimbo; the shabby genteel bibliophile indulging in an intellectual "orgy" at a book stall; the two hags discussing their "brigands" of husbands, and expressing the plious wish that the one might be bung for murdering the other; the father with his good, simple face, so proudly escorting his daughter, whose pretty, trivial features already bear the imprint of something that is not candor or purity. No—we do not laugh at these.—New Orleans Times-Democrat. The Czar's Crown. The Russian crown and other insignia, together known as "the crown jewels," are valued at the enormous sum of $11,000,000, the crown itself being reckoned at $0,000,000. It is adorned with hundreds of diamonds, worth all the way from a few dollars up into the many thousands. Besides the diamonds there are fifty-four magnificent pearls without a flaw set around the rim, with a ruby of extraordinary size for a centerpiece. The crown was made by Pauzie, the Genevieve Jeweller, and was first used by Catherine the Great. The Orloff diamond forms the tip of the scepter used on all state occasions.—St. Louis Republic.

So the old nursery rhyme says, and it goes on to bid her "Leave them alone and they'll come home and bring their tails behind them." All this may be true of lost sheep, but if you have lost your health you cannot afford to leave that alone. It will not work in locked doors. Some people drag that they never bother about colds. They "let them go the way they came." Alas too often the victims go—to a consumptive's grave. Until very recently a cure for Consumption, which is universally acknowledged to be scrofaia affecting the lungs, would have been looked upon as no recourse, but now people are beginning to realize that the disease is not incurable. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery will cure it if taken in time and given a fair trial. This world-renowned remedy will not make new lungs, but it will restore diseased ones to healthy state when other means have failed. Thousands gratefully testify to this. It is the most potent tonic, or strength restorer, alternative, or blood-cleaner, and nutritive, or ilex builder known to medical science. For Lingering Coughs, Weak Lungs, Spitting of Blood, Liver Complaint" and Dyspepsia or Indigestion, it is an unequaled remedy. DR.
