GEORGE ELIOT TO WRITE No MORE.
Before leaving London I learned
piece of news which, if true will prove
sad tidings to all lovers of literature. /
am told that George Eliot miss Marion
Evans) will probably never write again.
She is suffering from an incurable NAL
ady, and her overwhelming grief for
the loss of Mr.. Lewes has caused it to
make such rapid progress that her
health is irretrievably shattered. It is
said that her agony at the time of his
death was uncomfortable and unbound
ed. She broke down as utterly as ever
did the weakest woman of us all, and
her shrieks of irrepressible anguish were
heartrending to hear. My Informant
told me that George Eliot would now
probably resume the name of Evans, as
the real Mrs. George II. Lewes is still
living.-Lucy Hooper's Paris Letter to
the Philadelphi0 Telegram.

THE Cost OF THE ARAY.-If the re-
ports of the manner in which the army
of the United States is at present consti-
tuted and of the great expense attending
its support be true, reform in organiza-
ton and economy In administration,
should at once beinstituted. The WASH
ington correspondent of The State says !:
"The army costs almost as much as
the entire expenses of the Government
in 1860. There is one commissioned Of
ficer to every four privates and to pay the
officers requires one million dollars more
than to pay the privates. The Demo-
Gratis will bring directly before the peo-
pie all the facts in regard to the army,
including the immense cost, the corrup-
ton and favOritism.

A MARVELLOUS BOY.-In the au-
tumn of the year 1914, I was reading
with private tutor. the CuIate of We'll
lington, Somersetsbire, when a Mr..
Bidder called upon him to exhibit the
calculating power of his little boy, then
about eight years old. who could neither
read nor write. On this occasion he dis
played great facility in the handling of
numbers, multiplying readily and cor
rectly two figures by two, but failing in
attempting numbers of three figures.
My tutor, a Cambridge man. Fellow of
his college, strongly recommended the
father not to carry his son about the
country, but to have him properly
trained at school. This advice was not
taken, for about two years after he was
brought by his father to Cambridge,
and his faculty of mental calculation
tested by several able mathematical
men. I was present at the examination,
and began it with a sum In simple addi
tion. two rows, with twelve figures in
each row. The boy gave correct an
swer Immediately. Various questions
then, of considerable difficulty, involv-
ing large numbers, were proposed to
him, all of which he answered prompt
ly, and accurately. These must have
occupied more Clau al hour. 1uSTc
was then pause. To test his memory,
I then said to him. "Do you remember
the sum in addition I gave you?" To
my great surprise he repeated the twen-
ty- four figures, with only one or two mis-
takes. IT is evident, therefore, that in
the course of two years his powers of
memory and calculation must have been
gradually developed. He could not ex-
plain the process by which he worked
out long and intricate sums. He did
not appear at all overworked. AS soon
as question was answered, he amused
himself with whipping top round the
room, and when the examination was
over he said to us: "You have been
trying to puzzle me, will try to puzzle
you. A man found thirteen cats in his
garden. He got out his gun, fired at
them, and killed seven. How many
were left ?" "Six," was the answer.
"Wrong. None were left. The res!
ran away" I mention this to show
that he was cheerful and playful boy
when he was about ten years old, and
that his brain was not overtaxed.-Iht

FAINT HEART.
She stood before him, tall and fair
And gracious, on that summers day,
With June's first roses in her hair,
And on her cheek the bloom of May.
But rosy cheek. and dimpled chin,
And raven lashes dropping low,
Conceal the answer he would win:
It might be Yes; would 1t be NOT
All, if 'twere No-his throbbing heart
Stood fairly still with sudden pain;
And II 'twere Yes, the world so wide
His deep content could scarce contain.
So wondrous fair! how could she stoop
To favor such a one as he?
All, sweet suspense that still leaves hope!
All, pain of sad uncertainty!
He held her hand SO white and small,
And moved to press 1t with his lips,
But changed his mind. and let it fall,
With chillest touch of finger tips,
And took the seat she offered him
Upon the sofa by her side.
Nor made the space between them less,
Which seemed so narrow, yet SO wide.
Then gazing on the perfct face,
The dimpled mouth, the serious eyes,
And drinking in with eager ears
The music of her low replies,
He let the bright hours drift away,
Nor told the secret of his heart,
But, when the shadows heightened lay,
Rose, all reluctant, to DEPART
And stammered forth, with blushing ckeek.
An eager, timorous request
That she, for old acquaintance sake,
Would grant the rosebud from her breast.
She gave it him. with downcast eyes,
And watched him leave her, with sigh.

A NEW THEORY OF DEw.-Prof.
Stockbridge, of the Amhurst Agricultu-
raj college, has been making some ex-
pertinent as to the originIof dew and has
arrived at conclusions somewhat differ
ent from those generally accepted. 1t
is usually held that dew is the moisture
of the air condensed through contact
with object of lower temperature, and
that it does not form till radiation has
reduced the temperature of the earth.
Plof. Stockridge asserts, however, that
dew is the result of condensation by the
air of warm vapor (which rises from the
soil. and he embodies the result of his
experiments in these propositions: 1.
The vapor of the soil is much warmer
at night than the air, and would be con-
densed by it. 2. Vapor from the soil
is soon diffused and equalized in the
whole atmosphere, but in the largest
proportion when evaporation is taking
place near the surface of the, soil and,
other things being equal, plants nearest
the earth have the most dew. 8. Dew
under hay cocks, boards, and other like
objects Oh the ground could receive it
from no other source.
