LOVE STORIES.


LOVE STORIES.
This kind Of literature is, at the present day,
rdculously prevalent. No periodical is DEEM
ed readable, whose columns do not TEEN with
morbid sentimentality in one form or another /;
and all books, designed especially to please, are
pronounced tedious and inspid, if not profusely
embellished with tragic love-scenes, or made to
record the wonderful vicissitudes experienced by
ssms imaginary hero or heroine of love. No
other standard is needed, by which to judge of
enes intellectual capacities, than his ability to
produce from the realm of Fancy, some e1qisite-
ly wrought and captivating tale of love, and
his skill in imparting to fiction the semblance
Of fact. In the broad field of fancy, to which
love gives such boundless scope, are dissi pated
many Of the noblest efforts Of human genius
which if diverted in other channels, nigh. have
done infinitely more for the melioration and
elevation of mankind.
Bus this continual harping on single string
10 not without an ostensible reason; for as the
success Of the merchant depends on his selec-
zion Of wares suited to the tastes and wants Of
his customers, 90 must the Author and Editor
cater for their readers, if they would gain their
favor, and have their labors appreciated. And
what is the tendency of this species of polite
literature! 1t would seem that, in that little
word-loue, is wrapt an omnipotent charm.
In its nature and effects, it resembles a certain
sophorifc, which, while it lulls tho outer senses
into deep and quiet repose, raises the imagina-
tive part to the height of intoxication, and from
gazing with undsguised rapture on objects Of
the greatest beauty, we wake only to find them
images of a distempersd brain. And with such
a principle at work without and within, we ore
all prone enough to live in an ideal world; to
indulge in ay.dreams, and build aerial palaces,
aside from the stimulus found in exciting love-
tales which everywhere greet the eye. How
many by their influence are led to entertain
such false or exalted ideas of life, that, becom-
ing dispirited at its stern realities, they turn
away in disappointment and ohagrin. Youth,
especially, should indulge but sparingly in such
undue excitants Of the imagination, if they
would combat successfully with the ills Of life
for these influences may be ascribed much Of
their growing supinsness and indecision.

THE QUEEN AND THE QUAKEREss.

In the summer of 1918, her late Majesty,
Queen Charlotte, visited Bath, accompanied by
the Princess Elizabeth. The waters soon effect
ed such respite from pain in the ropal patient,
that she proposed an excursion to park of some
celebrity in the neighborhood, then the estate
Of rich widow lady, belonging to the Society
Of Friends. Notice was given of tho Queens
intention, and a message returned that she would
be welcome. Our illustrious traveller had, per-
haps, never before held any personal intercourse
with member Of the persuasion whose votares
never voluntarily paid taxes to "the man George,
called King by the vain ones" The lady and
gentleman who were to attend the august visit
ants had but feeble ideas of the reception to be
expected. 1t was supposed that the Quaker
would at least say, " Thy Majesty" Thy
Highnes,," or " Madame" The royal carriage
arrived at the lodge Of the park punctually at
the appointed hour. No preparations appeared
to hnve been made no hostess or domestics
stood ready to greet the guests, The portsr's
bell was rung he stepped forth deliberately
with his broad d-brimmed beaver on and unbend-
ingly accosted the lord in waiting with, "Whats
thy will, friend!
This was almost unreasonable. "Surely,"
said the nobleman, "your lady is aware that
Her Majesty--. Go to your mistress, and
say the Queen is here
"No, truly" answered the man, at nsedeth
not; have no mistress nor lady, butmy friend
Rachel Mills expects thine. Walk in"
The Queen and the Princess were handed out,
and walked up the avenue. At the door of the
house stood the plainly attirsd Rachel, who,
without even courtesy, but with cheerful
nod, d" How's thee do friend' am glad to
sec tee and thy daughter. | wish the we'll.
Rest and refresh thee and thy people, before
show thee my grounds"
What could be said to such a person
Some condescenson were attempted, implying
that her majesty came not only to view the park
but to testify her esteem for the Society to which
Mistress Mills belongs. Cool and unawsd sh'
answered. Yes thou art right there. Th'
Friends are we'll thought of BY most folks; bu
they need not the praise of the world; for ths
rest, many strangers crafty the curiosity By
going over this place and it is my custom tc

think we'll Of thee as dutiful wife and moth

Charlotte.)
II was 90 evident that the Friends meant
kindly, nay, respectfully, that no offence could
taksn. She escorted her guests through he

Mills.
" Perhaps you will give me pair! perse-
vered the Princess with conciliating smile.
"Nay, verify" replied Rachel. "I have re-

And Jesus heard them, and looking down
compassionately on the dead creature, he said,

JESUS AND THE DEAD DoG.-Jcsua, SAYS a
very old Persian story, arrived one evening at
the gates of certain city, and he sent his dis
ciples forward to prepare supper, while he
himself, intent on doing good, walked through
the streets into the market-place.
And hs saw at the corner of the market some
people gathered together looking at an object
on the ground and hs drew near to see what
il might be. 1t was dead dog, with halter
round his neck. by which hc appeared to have
been dragged through the dirt; and vilsr, q
more unclsan thing, never met the eye of man
And those who stood by looked on with ab-
horrsnce.
