Walter Scctt'S Prolifcness.

y true son OF genius was Scott; but
his haste to be rich, the failure Of Con
stable x Co., his publishers and the mis-
fortunes with the Ballautynes III pub
fishing, led him TO too much and rapid
writing. Hence his latter works exhibit
less care and more hurry. But it should
be remembered that the poor man, in MS
.ast wears, was writing, not for fame. hI,
to keep the Sheriff out of Abhotsinl.
Only think of it thlty-t~D uoy,ls
wilton in seventeen year. between
1911 and 1881. In his eaearues, toca-
large and cmbolish Abbotstor,, all To
msiu.aia his then pfinc"ly styi" %, i.v-
ing, Scott had b3eA in tAn A..J.t OF re-
ceiving from Constable & c.. large sums
OF money in anticipation OF works in pro
gross, or which Ike proposed ID write.
and when they failed, in 1926, Scott VS.
found to have incurred liabilities 10 trriv
creditors to the amount Of @51l,00y
Then, soon after, when the Ba..cn,ynes
failed, it was found That SCOT; had orcn
their secret partner from 1905. and was
held for their total indebtedness, amount.

Constable * Co. WAS included in the
debts of Ballantyne Il Co., SO that Scot, :
actual liabilities We're tl50,0O0, or
$3.50, 900 in American currency. What
debt on the shoulders of literary
man, which he calamity proposed to
"wipe ont" with his pen His age Wa
then So, and he set about his Lorculean
task. His work WAS both heroic and
marvellous Eleven novels were written
between 1896 and lS3l--fve years
Need it be surprising that they lacked
the strength and finish of his earlier
works, when he was writing for fame,
rather than pounds, shillings and pence
But alas the task killed him. Mental
exhaustion and bodily i'll health We're the
penalty Of overwork. Paralysis came in
1880, and two more years Of WEAKNESS
succeeded. On the 2lst OF June. 1882,
the author of the Waverly Novels went
to sleep at Abbotsford, and awoke not
again.

In few words Mr. Treherne explained
how he had cast off his only child on &C

when she wrote asking him fer forgive
ness.
But, thanl, Heaven T. said he, when
had finished his sad story, l can atone
in some measure for my harshness to my
Helen by taking her Helen to my heart
and making her my daughter. "
1t is needless to say that when Sir
Philip Martson heard that his son had
married the mistress of one of the finest
and oldest estates in the country, he at
once wrote letter of reconciliation to
Harry, and after all, Helen eventually
became mistress of Marston Hall, in the
picture gallery Of which no painting is
more valued and treasured than "The
Mysterious Portrait"

Buy a Home.

If you have made money in stocks, buy

Marriage.

Marriage, or engagements 10 marry,
should not be entered into inconsiderate
". Ii the old axiom that haste makes
waste is true rs applied to the ordinary
affairs of life, it may be said that undue
haste often results in unspeakablc ms
cry in matrimonial alliances Love is
proverbially blind; he is more-hc is
willfully blind and should be made to
open his eyes. A little common sense
mingles advantageously with everything;
SO far from being out of place, it is an
absolute essential to safety in affairs Of
the heart. Many girl has had her
whole happiness for life destroyed be
cause she obstinately chose to form her
estimate of the character Of suffer cx-
clusively by his behavior towards her,
and his profession Of love, rather than
by his conduct towards others. 1t is a
pretty safe rule that man whose whole
life is but an exemplifcation Of selfish
ness will not continue generous in rela-
ton TO his rife. Character is seldom
revolutionized by marriage. There may
he a slight reform temporarily; it rarely
lasts long And men suffer as well as
women from ill-assorted ma rriagcs.
Many towering ambition has been
crushed, many cupful of happiness has
been converted into the dregs Of bitter
ness, from the neglect of young man
TO become thoroughly acquainted with q
girl before engaging himself TO her.

Some Hints.

Nothing more surely marks Il gentle
man than his public manners 1t is, FOR
instance, impossible to feel thai . man
wro arrives ut hotel late at night, and
goes noisily, talking and laughing, along
the corridor TO his room, fiinging his
boots down heavily. and s!ammins the
door, though an upright and excellent
person, yet lacks the finer qualities of
the gentleman The essence of courtesy
is moral 1t is Il sympathetic regard fer
the feelings of others which spares them
unnecessary annoyance. When It is an
instructive it is called fact. But it is,
at bottom, humanity. SO, when a pub
lie man vituperates another, however
smart the abuse may be, there is an in
slant perception OF the want OF gentle
manly feeling However polished the
invcctivc it is nothing more than the
style Of the stews. When Lord Beacons
fall spoke of Mr. Gladstone in the
strain that we indicated last month il
was in SANITY fclt that he had made q
mistake; and although he might be-, rs
his admirers assert, the last unminglcd
representative OF che Sepharlim, or
those Hebrews who can trace their ped
igrec lnbrolcn through internin2ble
generations Of ancestors always OF gentle
blood, he was us you not quite q gentle
man When IL momhcr OF Il public as
sembly had been berated by an opponent
with epithets, and was asked to reply,
h said: But there is no reply to . slop
pal" Ii a guest disturbed from rest by
the noisy conner that we mentioned
should open his door, and by way ct re
prisd, 'shy' his boot, jack at the door
OF his noisy nciyhbor when he had fallen
asleep, it might be what was called,
one scientific nan spat in the face of
another who had questioned his asser-
ton, 'the wild justice OF cXpectoration,"
but it would not be gen,emanly.
Perhaps, then, it is better sometimes
not to be gentlemanly That is undoubt-
edly the practical conclusion of those
who feel uncomfortable when they have
been covered with mud until they can
throw mud in return. But the self-re-
straint which good manners imposes is
always better than Getting yourself 60 B"
Mephistopheles is never good counselor,
and largely because he is not gentleman.
The real Sephardic may or may not
trace continuous gentle blood through
interminable generations of ancestry.
But they do not slam their boots or
their doors, nor hustle in late at concerts
and talk during the performance, nor oc
py more seats in Il railroad car then
they pay for, nor keep their seats in II
street car, compelling IL woman to stand.
they may, indeed, reprove and rebuke,
but without heat or personality, like
Thomas when he feared that the music
interrupted the conversation, or like that
true gentleman whom the older Berk-
shire knew, and who said to the young
woman to whom he had given his place
in the car, and who asked him what he
was waiting for. "Only to hear yon say
thank you, N, dear.

The truest help We can der TO an
afflicted man is not to take his burden
from him. but to call out his hes, strength,
that he NAV be abe TO bear the burden.
Children who have been the pets of

with jealousy at the advent Of new

FARM NOTES.

Feed the grapc-vincs. fruit trees, &c,

\ Perry county. Pa. farmer has Civ

has three bushes loaded with berries.
Paul Leroy Bcauljru, in an article on
the present short crop N France, says:
Ii America did not exist We should have
famine.
Scatter under the fruit trees, say one
quart of salt to Il iull-grown tree, twice
every week or two, until fruit Is nearly
grown. and it will prevent the working
and ravageS of worms.
Put the hen-cOop under your fruit
trees, and the old hen with her chick
ems there, and every morning knock on
the trees with quick, hard rap, and the
little Turk Will drop and chick will de-
your him.
Plaster permanently benefits grass rs
well rs forces growth. hut its Stimula-
ting powers are stronger that its manu-
rial qualities. 1t furnishes some plant
food but i chiefly beneficial by render
ing other plant food already in the soil
The first cheese factory in England
was established i'm Derby in 1870, and
there are now believed to be not more
than twenty-five cheese factories in all
England, though they are on a larger
scale than those in this country, each re-
ceiving the milk of a far greater number
of cows.
Fresh butter is selling in Ayrshire at
SID per pound, or less than hall OF what
il brought last year. Thus We find that
dairy products are down in treat Brit
ain fully rs low as on this side OF the
water. There is no difficulty in getting
L. cents here for firSt-claSs butter.

from beets never was successful IN
France and Germany until the refuse
pulp was saved for cattle food. We pre-
sumo the farmers about the Maine bee
sugar works will see to this. The eX
pertinent OF making sugar from beets II
this country mas failed hitherto for want
OF attending To economies.
