D. Raxnau.. May «i! t, S 38. The l r.,f<**»lona.l Homori t'i Work. The task of a man who is compelled to get up a certain amount of pointed humor daily is more laborious than that of a hod carrier. It is*something like it, too. He just carries stuff to the level of the average comprehension, and having de¬ posited it before tho person to get the benefit of it, goes after more. How does the humorist work? Well, it depends largely upon- !:?« ' ipe-rament, and greater or less for his specialty. Some men, altlm . 0 ,ey may have fair ability in some lines of writing, are slow to originate a humorous idea, notwith¬ standing that they can appreciate it in others. To such, the writing of a humor¬ ous paragraph or article is something to be dreaded. It would be a violation at newspaper ethics for a professional w riter to decline to get up an article on any subject or from nny standpoint. Given a theme and t ; o treat it humorously, the most seda . mber of a newspaper stall will atti . .t without hesitation, and, in lsia own ; .:ne, will do the work well, p-erhaps a3 well as the man whose specialty is humor. But, ah, the labor of the sedate man! How each queer simile, every epigram¬ matic will wring sentence lii3 and soul every and make odd expression lua brain throb! Fun! Tell him tliat he ought to enjoy his own fun, and he will probably brain you with tlie office poker. Ask the regular paragrapher whether he enjoys hia work, and he will think you a fool. He does it because it is bis work, but the terrible wrestle he has with the English language every day to evolve those atrocious witticisms of his, no one knows but himself. To the young man who thinks of going into newspaper work as a funny man, there is only one word of advice to be given, and that, by the way, of was used Ly the most dismal humorist the present century, London Punch: “Don’t!”—Pittsburg Bulletin. (tardiness of American Half Breeds* The experience of the teachers of the Lincoin institution confirms the views here expressed, that the mixed Indian is more exempt from pulmonary than tho pure Indian; and, further, if the former are attacked by disease, they offer greater constitutional resist¬ ance to it than the latter. Tills view is also confirmed by the largo experience of Capt. R. II. Pratt, superintendent of the Carlisle Indian school, who says in his last report: “Our experience is that the mixed bloods resist disease and death from pulmonary troubles better than tho full bloods; and our best health condi¬ tions are found among those we send out into families—due, I think, veiy largely to the regular occupation and varied diet.” Similar views have been expressed by others who have resided among the mixed or half breed races in the north¬ western part of Canada. These people are said to l>o strong and hearty, long lived, and not subject to disease, so long as they remain in their native climate. They regard themselves as the equal of the whites, and look in a patronizing way on the Indian. Their families are usually very largo, and the female sex is said to be very liandsome. Quite re¬ cently I had occasion to investigate the question whether pulmonary consump¬ tion tends to exterminate the American Indian, and I then found that nearly all those Indian agencies which show the lowest consumption rate are precisely those which are shown in tho table of this paper to contain the largest number of mixed bloods.—Thomas J.
