A Stur reporter was talking with a southern editor visiting in Washington and during the conversation the editor handed the reporter a copy of his paper to look at and compare with the met ropolitan journals. It was an eight- column country weekly and had no dis tinguishing marks save one paragraph at the head of the editorial columns, which read: "The editor under no cir cumstances shall be held personally re sponsible for communications appear ing In this paper." "That suggests a reason why It should be there," said the reporter. "I don't know," replied the editor, "that It does any good, but I have had It there for ten years and It shall re main as long as I am the editor." "And the reason?" "Good enough, I think, in the begin ning. A dozen years ago I took the pa per, and I used to print a lot of com munications from all sorts of people on all sorts of subjects, and while I didn't exactly assume personal responsibility for them, I sed to stand between the writers and the subjects as far as pos sible. One week during the winter something got in about one George B. Blank, a man I never heard of, and the article Itself was, I thought. In the na ture of a compliment. Two days after It appeared I was in my office alone, when a little, Bhort, dricd-up kind of a chap came In, and, slipping the bolt on the door, walked Up to my desk and planted himself about Six feet from me. I looked up, smiled, as I usually did on visitors, and asked him what I could do for him. " 'My name,' he said; without return ing my salutation, 'Is George B. Blank, the same mentioned,, In your paper of last Issue, and I have come In to pay you for it.' " 'There's no pay, I .Assure you, Mr. Blank I replied. 'On the contrary, I was glad to print It' " 'You are personally responsible for it, I suppose?' he went on. " 'Certainly. Why not?' " 'That's why I want to pay for it,' he sail, angrily, and before I could make a move he had me covered with a huge revolver. 'Don't get up,' he went on, as I made a movement, I'm going to kill you, and can do It just as well where you alt,' "I could see now by his wavering eyes that the man was crazy, and I was so unnerved that for a moment I couldnt' move hand or foot, Just as you feel In a bad dream. " 'You wouldn't shoot a man unarm ed and helpless, would you?' I asked, gazing straight Into his eyes, as they do with lunatics, for I thought I might beat him that way. " 'It Is quite Immaterial to me,' he laughed, and pulled the trigger. "But the revolver snapped, and as It did so he laughed again. " 'Don't feel disappointed,' he said, pleasantly; 'there are four more cart ridges left and they won't all miss Are.' "As he tinkered a moment with the pistol, keeping it trained on me, a form that one of the boys had Bet by the stove to thaw out yielded to the heat, and the type In It went to the floor with a crash. It came so suddenly that my visitor looked around quickly to see what It was, and that Instant I made a Jump for him and caught his pistol arm. Physically, he was no match for me, and in a minute I had the revolver out of the way and had htm pinned to the floor, where I choked him Into In sensibility. Then I unlocked the door and called for help, and my visitor was handed over to the. town marshal and locked up. Later I learned that some years before Mr. Blank had run for office and had been crazed by the news paper fight against htm, and he had sworn to kill the next man who put his name in the paper. That happened to be me, and he evidently Intended to keep his word, and would have kept it if the gun hadn't snapped. The only real satisfaction 1 got out of it," laugh ed the editor, In conclusion, "was to print the notice you have called my attention to and to lick the blamed fool that sent In the communication as a nice little joke on the editor."

There seems to be a general Impres sion that there Is little or no danger at tending the removal of the tonsils, and Instruments for this purpose are' found in the possession of every practitioner In the land. An eminent surgeon de clares that removing the tonsils Is an oeratlon attended with a great deal of risk. One reason for this seems to be that In cutting there Is danger of ap proaching near the large arteries, or, at all events, tapping small veins that may cuusc alarming hemorrhage. This physician gives an account of the removal of the tonsils from the throat of a boy, when he was obliged to hold the parts with his Angers for sev eral hours, to arrest the hemorrhage that threatened the youth's life, as he had no appliances at hand for checking the hemorrhage, which was entirely unlooked-for. He says It Is as well to be very wary In cutting the tonsils at all, and not to operate upon them unless It Is absolutely necessary, and then only remove a sufficient surface to relieve the mechanical obstruction caused by their, enlargement.
