Rules for Editorial Writers. When the situation clamors for a par donable lie, Please begin your observations with, "As no One Will Deny." With a modest littlo, bashful little effort to deceive, Kindly use the introduction, "Wcllave Reason to. believe." When the information's doubtful, he no whit dismayed thereat, Finding refuge in the sentence, " 'Tis an Open Secret That-." You may search tho very marrow of your controversial foes, With that phraseof eold disparagement, "As Every Schoolboy Knows." And a fraud will seem as pious as a missionary tract With the prefatory label, "It Is an Un doubted Fact." So, by paying close attention to a few such rules as these You will soon be able to prevaricate with ease. ?Puck. PRINCETON NEWS NOTES. Death of a Child- Interesting Personal Notes and Observations.
