Co-operating with this ctose Is sleepi

The limits cf probability have lately
been puzzling a London police magii
tmt. The origin of hia perplexity, ac
given Ly the Illustrated Londou News,
is this:
A ycung domestic servant tried to
cash one or two forged checks and was
arrested in the attempt, fche said "a
p.'ntleniau" gave tbem to her a "Mr
tlilhf-rt, " whose wherealiouts nobody
could trace. Tbat story has been told
too often to impress a jury no juryman
likes to be made a laughing stock but
before a verdict of "guilty" could be
given a man fell down dead in the
streets. He was recognized as "the gen
tleman" ly the act used woman, and,
sure enongh, in hia pocket were found
other foiged checks similar to those she
had attempted to put into circulation
Even Mr. Lane, 0 C, may be persuaded
tbat truth really is stranger than fiction
tlraeCt of Prrrast,
Every one may not know what tbe '.
term "benefit of peerage" implies. A
P'-er can demand a private audience ot
the sovereign to represent hi views oa
mattvrs of public welfare. For treason
or felony be can demand to be tried by
bis -ers. He cannot be outlawed iu any
civil action, nor can he be arrested on
!(: for an indictable offense, and be is
est nipt from serving on juries. He may
sit with bis bat on iu courts of justice,
aud bbould he be liable to tbe last pen
alty cf t ha law be can demand a silken
cord instead cf a bempen rope.

A youngmaubas written, wanting to
know of a "good opening in journal
ism," We don't know of any such
thiDg, and don't believe there ever was
what could Le termed a "gonl opening
in journalism' or indeed in anything
else. By "good opening," we take it,
he means what in the language of the
day is termed a "soft snap," a business
in which the dollars come rolling in at
the start, a sort of earthly flowery bed
of ease, a place where comfort aud rest
are to be found in fact a condition
which has been expressly created for
the satisfaction and gratification cf him
who wants everything ready-made.
There are no openings anywhere, but
everywhere are tliee places w here open
ings can be made, says the Blairsviile
Courier in reply. They are not to Le
bad like houses tbt t are built for rent,
they can not be leased fr pre-empted or
squatted upon cr crawled into or laid
down in. You can't get them through
an agent like you can a furninbed flat.
They are not to be had for the asking
but if you are a woiker, and know hew
to use the d'tmond drill of industry,
opirktel by til mtivt piver of un
flagging energy aud lubricaied by the
oil of patience we can tell vou of a
thousand places where good openings
can be made that will lead you to ti.e
rich vein of success and fortune. t.t
the man that looks about for openings
as he does for a ready-made suit of
clothes will never find one. This is
true of journalism, of tbe prof, s-don,
aud of every sphere aud fi- Id of human
entrsy. But another truth must 1
