Mr. Gratebar on Fishing,
"I think," said Mr. Gratebar, "that
tbe talent for fishing, like many other
talents, is a gift No doubt tlra true
fisherman, like the poet. Is born, not
made • Fishing is a faculty that can be
cultivated, like many others; one can
learn by rote acetic tackle and baits
and tides and so ou. but when it comes
to actual contact with the fish there
comes in the art of the fisherman The
fact is that some men can catch fish
and seme can't. I am one of these who
cannot; time and again I have sat in a
hoar alongside of men catching lots of
fish and caught uoae or uext tc uciie.
But I love to go fishing, all the same."

One of the latest adaptations; I'd like
to he a printer, and with the printers
stand, green ink upon my forehead, and
benzine in my hand; and if a mad subscriber came in to kick and roar, I'd
stab him with the towel that leans
against the door.
Last weelc the Sentinel announced
what was certainly news to the entire
city, viz. that the Sentinel is the best
paper published in Ypsilenti. Evidently one of those papers found its
way to the sick room of the veteran
editor, for this week on the Sentinel's
editorial page we find the following:
My son, boast not too much of thine
honor; he who boasteth most hath
•least of it."—Commercial.
Take a long narrow strip of paper and
draw a line with a pen or pencil along
the whole line ot its center. Turn one
of the ends round so as to give it a
twist and then gum the ends together.
Now take a pair of scissors and cut the
circle of paper right round alongthe line
and you will have—two circles, did you
say. Try and see. This is a puzzle
and has never been explained satisfactorily by scientist or mathematician.—
Ex.
A modest young lady who desired
to make a purchase at a dry goods store
not far from the Standard office addressed the young man behindthe counter, thus: "It is my des're to obtain a
pair of circular elastic appendages,
capable of being contractedor expanded by means of oscillating burnished
steel appliances that sparkle like particles of gold leaf set with Alaska diamonds and which are utilized for retaining in p,roper position the habiliments of the lower extremities, which
innate delicacy forbids me to mention."-'
The clerk thought a moment and said
he believed she needed a pair of garters.—Hillsdale Standard.
The paper was late and the makeup
was dumping matter in the forms at
the rate of a column a minute. Result:
The first part of an obituary was
dumped into the form, and next handful of type came off a galley describing
a recent fire. It reads like this in the
newspaper: The pall-bearers lowered
the body into the grave, and it was
consigned to the roaring llames, there
were very few if any, regrets, for the
old wreck had been an eyesore lo the
town for years. The loss was fully
covered by insurance. The above item
refers to our friends of the Ypsilanti
Commercial hist week.
Oddities or Sight.
The two eyes really see two objects.
If the two forefingers be held, one at
the distance of one foot, the other two
feet in front of the eyes,, and the for
mer be looked at, two phantoms of the
latter will he observed, oiierjn each side
If the latter he regarded, two phantoms
of the nearer finger will be observed
inouutiug guard, one ou each side.
A SUNBEAM  BROKE A BANK.
The Faro Uealer Thought its End Was a
.   White Chech.
"That piece in your paper 'bont the
guy that cleaned up the faro banks out
in Seattle," mused Bettam High, tho
Chicago gambler, as he told the waiter
■to "bring on three fer a half," "ain't
in it with my personal experience. This
•was out in Cripple Creek when the
boom was way up an a good play
agin a right bank, see, was wuth more
to the hanker thau a split in the best
claim yon could git if they broke even.
Do you know Eatem Up Jake? That
wasn't his name of course, but the gang
give him the handle 'cause he conld
chew so fast, see? "Well, Eatem Up got
hold of a piece of money in Chicago—
he win out a roll off'n short money, see,
an he goes off tc Cripple Greek an starts
to dealin. De lay out was in a little
frame, pine board joint 'bout's big's a
dry goods box. Jake gets a good play,
you know—took a minute to settle after
every turn, see? But I didn't tell yon
'bout the knothole. You see, there's a
knothole in a board right hack of the
dealer. Jake, he's in the lookout chair,
see? Jake don't have no clock there,
see, so nobody minds the daylight, only
it makes the dealer a little sleepy, an
Jake, he's kinda dopy.
'' Well, there's s\ tin horn from over
in another joint—a plugger in the stud
game, see? He blows in an buys two
red checks, waits fer cases, fergits the
copper one play an gets whipsawed,
•ee—loses both bets. Then he buys half
a stack of whites an keeps the seat,
playing mostly cases. He ieeps his
checks in his hands, au Jake don't keep
cases on him. Well, he goes broke, but
Jake doesn't inow it.
"The jack's a case, see, an the sunlight's coming through the knothole
over the dealer's shoulder, hits the jack
right in the center, an it looks like a
white cheek. The jack wins. Dealer
pays a white check on the jack. Tin
horn pushes; tho sleeper over between
the queen an the king, an it wins
again, see? An, on the level, die guy
win and win, an nothin can stop him.
Five deals afterward he has the check
rack out, an Jack says:
" 'I can't deal fer you no more. Me
roll is gone.'
".Next day I stake Jake in the poker
game an tell him how it happened, an
he says -.
" 'Well, watyetink of that? Wouldn't
that skin yon? I've heerd of guys winning ont de bank roll off'n eat money,
but I never heard of winning ont on a
