An Appreciation OF the Great Poets.

Fashions alter, but not manhood.
Taste in literary form changes, but not
the appreciation of literary genius. II
is only when man makes himself con-
spicuous by a literary trick Of some kind
that he presently sinks out of sight. No
change Of taste in form affects Chaucer,
Spenser, Shakespeare, Milton, or even
Dryden or George Herbert. They shine
on like stars when the b0nfires are ex-
hausted and the candles blown out.
The exclusive attention and admiration
which a great poet excites in his own
time in the susceptible mind of youth
give him disproportioned prominence,
such as Tennyson holds in many minds
to-day, anu such as Byron held with the
men sixty years ago.liiis tone is so fitted
to the feeling and experience OF mis-
time that the generation which receives
him can hardly tolerate any subsequent
strains. The men and women who
grew up with Byron, who wooed with
him, who travelled with him, who were
filled with him, are almost jealous Of an
other tone. Think Of the first strain of
Tennyson in his poem, "Where Claribel
low lieth," falling upon the minds and
hearts that had melted with Byron's
"Dream," or exulted with Scotps "Mar-
mion," or were strung into rapture by
Campbelps "Mariners OF Englandp'
Fondness for the Tennysonian poetry
could seem to them only a vertiginous
mania. But this prospective, not a
retrospective, effect. The devetee OF
Byron, who could not like Wordsworth
or Tennyson, did not renounce the
earlier poets, and was still loyal to
Pope and Dryden, to Milton, Shaks.

Some Queer Animals.

Before Columbus sailed SO bravely OF
out of sight of land, to discover half OF
the world that he felt sure was on the
other side, people had very queer ideas
about the countries that were beyond
Europe. Animals SO strange were
thought to inhabit them, that almost any
story traye4er chose TO tell would be
believed.
Such creatures as Basilisks, Grifiins,
Mermaids, Sirens, Harpies, Centaurs,
Unicorns, Ph9nixes and Dragons, were
never seen by any one; but they were
written about in poems and stories, and
some OF them were used in this way to
express various symbolic meanings, SO
that, in writing at least 1t seemed dlfa-
cult to get on without them.
One of the most absurd Of these animals
was the Basilisk, most unpleasant
creature in every way, and not one that
could possibly be made pet of. People
were silly enough to believe that it came
from an egg laid by q very old cock aud
hatched by a toad, and that it had a
cocks head and wings, a lizards body
and tail, eight feet, and wore kingly
crown as monarch OF all the serpents
and dragons, who ran away whenever Is
came near them. It's breath was poison.
and the fearful glare Of its eyes killed
both animals and men whenever they
encountered it.
The Basilisk, sometimes called the
Cockatrice, lived in the deserts Of Afri-
ca; it could only live in a desert, for its
dreadful breath burned up everything
that grew, and no animal would venture
near it except the weasel, who would
bravely tight with it. The weasel got
the better Of the Basilisk by eating an
herb called rue, which poisoned the
monster when it Bit him-but the poor
l4itlle weasel always died too.
When the Basilisk was dead and
burned to ashes, the people took 4 little
comfort in it, for the ashes were said to
turn all Kinds of metal into gold; and il
would seem almost worth while to have
live Basilisk about for the chance OF
getting a dead one.-Ella Rodman
Church, st. Nicholas for October.

Growing Potatoes Under Straw.

One of my neighbors last season raised
over 400 bushels Of fine potatoes per acre
under straw, while the rest of us in open
ground hardly got our seed back, the
summer being extremely hot and dry.
His plan Is TO plant very shallow { one or
two inches deep in rows eighteen inches
apart, and when the potatoes are begin
ming to come up to cover with straw to
the depth Of eight or ten inches. The
straw Is Of most advantage in dry sea-
sons, showing but little II any benefit,
and sometimes positive damage in wet.
