What old man, middle-aged man or even oi??-just-come-of-age doea not recall with a keen tense of reminiscent delight the weekly visits, during hit boyhood,- of the Youth's Companion 7 How many derived also no small amount of pleasure from securing clubs of subscribers, receiving as a reward an air rifle or any one of a hundred other articles given by the publishers as premiums, and so glowingly described in illustrated advertisements in its columns? To all this vast army of folk# the news that the Youth's Companion Is no more, will be received with a tingj of sadness. It has been swallowed up by the American Boy. Sunday's New York Times chronicles this event in its editorial columns as follows: Even in thia wicked town there must be many old and not so old boys whose households used to be visited every week by the Youth's Companion. In its prime it published as an advertisement a map of the United States with the circulation figures for each statet It was then under the direction of the late Daniel S. Ford, still remembered in Boston for his benefactions. In those days it used to be the theory of New York newspaper owners that every literary person in Boston not otherwise engaged was one of Mr. Ford's editors at a salary of $25 a week. It is our impression that most boys blessed with the Companion appreciated its "healthful tone'1 rather less than the opportunities it offered for getting free a wide collection of destructive or illuminating things in consideration of new subscribers roped into the fold by their efforts." It was founded something over a hundred years ago by Nathaniel P. Willis, Sr., whose not at all Youth's Companion kind of a son, Nathaniel P., Jr., started in 1820 the American Magazine, deported to New York and consolidated with The Mirror in 1831. Senior and Junior, the Revolt of Youth! After all, the good old Deacon got the best of it. His paper became the most successful and lasted the longest of all periodicals "for the young." But youth came to desire livelier companions. The great weeklies and the Sunday papers ' lured away the tendor juveniles. The American Boy has swallowed The Youth's Companion. May good digestion wait on appetite!?Gastonia Gazette. Horse That Was Never Whipped. According to the International News Service, Theodore Bates of Fort Wayne, Indiana, owns a horse 26 years old that has never been whipped and can still do a full day'* work. Bates said he has never had a whip on any of his wagons and never will. "If all the money spent on whipcord were expended for good feed, and all the strength applied in wielding the whip were devoted to kind, patient treatment, drivers of horses would get much more work and satisfactory service from them," Bates declared. Bates and his faithful horse were one of the main features of n parade held in Fort Wayne.?Our Dumb Animals. Killed in Melon Patch.
