Itain’t the build of the vessel” that makes her a yacht, it’s the liquors and cigars and the beer and the ham sandwiches | and the folks that’s on board on her that makes her a yacht. Pat a crowd on board on her that can get tight and play Billy an’ all afore they get out of the harbor an’ she'll be such a yacht as no true gentleman need be ashamed on,”—[Boston Courier. A LOVELY COMPLEXION, “What a lovely complexion,” we often hear people say. “I wonder what she docs for it?” In every case the purity and real loveliness of the complexion depends upon the blood.

Benjamin Franklin, formerly of Boston, came very near being an only child. seventeen children had not come to bless the home of Benjamin's ents, ould have been childless, ‘Think of getting up in the morning and picking out your shoes and stockings from among seventeen pairs of | them. Imagine yourself a child, gentle reader, in a family where you would be called upon every morning to select. your own cud of spruce gum from a collection of seventeen similar cuds stuck on the window aill. And yet, B. oklin never murmured or repined. He desired to go to sea, and to avoid this he was apprenticed to his brother James, who was a printer, It is said that { Franklin at once took hold of the great | Archimedean lever, and jerked it early and | late in the interest of freedom, It is claimed that Franklin at this time invented the deadly weapon known as the printer's towel. He found that a common crash towel could be saturated with glue, molasses, antimony, concentrated lye and roller com- | position, and after afew ‘years of time and | perspiration it could harden so that the **Conatant Reader” or “ Veritas” could be stabbed with it and die soon. Many believe that Franklin’s other scien- | tific experiments were productive of more | lasting benefit to mankind than this, but I | do not agree with them. ‘This paper was called the New England Courant. It was edited jointly by James and Benjamin Franklin, and was started to sup- | | ply a long-felt want. Benjamin edited the | paper a part of the time and James a part of thetime. The idea of having two edi- | tors was not for the purpose of giving va- riety or volume to the editorial page, but it | was necessary for one to run. the while the other was in jail.

You had to go to jail, while your subscribers wondered | why their paper did not come, and the paste | soured in. the tin dipper in the sanctum and the circus passed by on the other side, How many of us to-day, fellow journalists, would be willing to st 4 in jail’ while the lawn festival and the kangaroo came and went? Who of all our company would go to a prison cell for the cause of freedom while a double column ad. of sixteen aggre- gated circuses and eleven congress- es of ferocious beasts, fierce and fra- grant from their native lair, went by us?
