Xhp plaiKonr of Mistance,
It is laughable how the consuls of the
different nations in Africa, Asia, and
J3onth America pro frequently criticised
by their papers ut home for not being
more assiduous iu r looking after the
commercial interests of their countries,
and how they are bidden to take pattern
by the representatives of other nations.
Thus the" British trade papers hold tho
German and United States consuls up
as admirable examples, aud the United
States and Germany go into raptures
over the faithful and energetic conduct
of the Britishers. And so it goes on.—
New York Merchants' Review.
rile Hint Given to a Seventh Daughter of
a Seventh Daughter.
A lawyer who was engaged in settling
up the affairs of an estate was sonio-
what worried over the loss Of certain
letters and papers.
The deceased had been a careless person, and he had mislaid several documents that -were of importance to his
heirs. Having been called away from
this earth On a hasty summons, he bad
not given the lawyer any instructions
beforehand.
The lawyer had a helpful friend who
believed in. olairvoyancy and second
sight. This friend Went to a woman
who was the seveuth daughter of a seventh daughter, and who could read tho
stars at sight, and told her of the lawyers search for the papers.
The clairvoyant or fortune teller, or
whatever she may have been, went to
see the lawyer.
The lawyer was skeptical. I really
believe I can find these papers for you,"
said she. "If yon care to einploy.mo I
shall at least endeavor to find them. A
few weeks ago I found a lost will for a
family on the north side."
"You really think you can find these
papers?"
"I am quite sure of it."
"You go ahead and find them, and
I'll pay yOu liberally."
' 'But I must receive every assistance
from you and the relatives of the departed. I must be taken to his home and
put in sympathy with his former surroundings. "
' 'Not much. I'll not go to all that
trouble. I think you're a fraud."
The woman, gave him a stony stare
and swept out of the room.
About five minutes later she re-entered the office. She appeared to - be agitated. "Excuse me for coming back,"
she said, "but did I leave a small black
bag in here? I wouldn't lose it for the
world."
"I haven"t seen it. You don't re*
member where you left it?"
"I can't imagine."
"That hadn't ought to worry you. If
you can find papers that have been missing six months, you hadn't ought to
have any difficulty in finding a handbag
that was lost ten minutes ago."
"You are positively insulting;" said
the seventh daughter of the seventh
daughter, and thou she leftf'rfini forever.

There is a touch of pathos in the statement that the book most frequently
called for in the library of Sing Sing
prison is Charles Eeade's "Never Too
Late to Mend." The same author's
"Put Yourself In His Place" holds the
second placo in popularity with the inmates of the prison.
The superior inventive genius of
Americans is clearly shown in tho report of the commissioner of patents, who
says that 32 foreign countries, including Great Britain, Gennauy, Russia
and Prance, have only issued from earliest time up to Dec. 31 last 9S1,961
patents, against '562.45S issued so far

BCe Was the First Presidential Candidate
to Employ a Press Agent.
"General Butler originated the employment and coined the term of press
agent at political headquarters," remarked a gentleman who has •'given,
hiany years to the consideration of active politics. "During his campaign for
the presidency ou the labor ticket he
noticed that the representatives of1
the newspapers gave but little attention to the labor ticket headquarters.
He decided that this should not continue. Bailey, the circus man, who was a
friend of General Butler, took some interest in his campaign, and General
Butler spoke to him of the neglect of
the newspapers. 'Do as we do,' Relied
Bailey, 'and hire men to take your stuff
to tbe papers — we call them press
agents, though you cau call them anyr
thing else.'
"The idea was adopted immediately
and Bailey was asked to spare pne of
his press agents for. a couple of months,
which ho consented to do, and sent Mat
jor Hugh Coyle, w'10 resides iu this city
^hiring tho off circus season, tp report
to General Butler. Coyle was therefore
tho first political press agent employed
as such. He took hold of the Butler-
boom and played it for all it was wprth,
and ran the campaign on regular circus
principles. He had a man three or four
"(lays ahead of the general, whose duty
it was to organize Batler clubs in case
^here was pot any or whero tho club
yras an insignificant affair,
"The clubs were organized on the
principles and in the Fame way that
armies, villagers and ballets arc secured
for theatrical or circus representations
r—that is, hired for the time they wero
occupied in making the parade. The
uniforms, banners, flags, drums, transparencies and other paraphernalia of political clubs wero owned by General
Butler, aud, like a circus tent, were sent
to the city -where they were to be used one
or two days iu advance. There is hardly
any political organization these days
which docs not have a press" agent, but
there arc few of them who will ever
compare with Hugh Coyle, for he combined great experience with intelligence and was a manager in every
sense."—Washington Star.
