Children I'm Art.

Mr.. Ruskin, during one of his recent lee
lures, contrasled "The Lovely Dynasty of
Little Creatures" painted for US by Mrs.
Allingham aud Miss Kate Greenaway. He
ad noticed last time that Greek art gave Us
20 children, but up 10 the thirteenth century
there were no Gothic children either. 1t vas
only when art was touched by Christianity,
and when the Madonna and Child became
the light of every honest heart and the Joy
of every pure soul that pictures OF children
were possible. The tradition of the beauti-
ful Child lasted long, and even Reubens's and
Rsmbrsndt's children are always beautiful.
Then came dark period in which children
we're ground 10 death by our mill-wheels, and
the wealthy patrons of art could not con-
ceive of the children of the poor except in
vice or misery. 1t is only now, Mr.. Ruskin
said, tina; you are b ginning to restore the
quiet earth to the steps Of children. Ever
Bewick never painted a child but In mis-
chief, and Wilkie never drew a beautiful
Scotch boy or girl. 10 literature, The Cot
ter's Saturday Night was the beginning o
the child beuedicrion carried on by Mary
Russell Milford, Wordsworth and Dickens
until it burst out, ''iIke their own sweet Sur
rey fountains" in the exquisite art OF Mrs
Alliugham and Miss Kate Greenawsy.

Dickens and George Eliot.

Dickens's methods were such as must have
pI owed very exhsusting, since after sketch
ing his plots he sought out his characters,
often spending whole nights in the most
wretched neighborhoods making up" his
models; but his work was frequently per-
formed at lightning speed. His manuscript
was full of curious interlineations so that at
times it was scarcely legible. His was the
divine fire that exhausts the frame within
which il burns. When hard at work he was
entirely absorbed in his theme, and the fate
of his characters, the pathos OF their liver,
affected him like actual personal griefs.
Few writers have ever yet worked with more
intensity than George Eliot, and yet there
was a distinct system in her method. First
the study Of the subject, the analysis of the
CD ar scters was carefully gone into. Then
came the ponderous ref sctions of the iuf1u-
ences TO be brought to bear; the scenes to be
depicted; the undercurrent of thought and
feeling, of suggestion. Finally the work,
which in her case never could be called me-
chanical since the actual writing down OF
each sentence was study. She gave hereelf
wholly 10 the work, yet it progressed so
slowly that frequently days labor only
saw accomplished a few hundred words;
but when written these had rarely TO be
changed

What R3lAtion7

We often hear Congressman accused
OF ignorance of the Scriptures. but that
even ministers are sometimes caught
mapping in some VI the minor matters
presented in the sacred book, Il shown
by the following story told by one who
was on fishing excursion with Rev.
Robert Collyer and some other minis
ters.
l cannot refrain. he says, from telling
a conundrum that was propounded to
the four ministers when the blueiish
party went ashore ut tho '.Pint' and
took their picnic dinnerunder the shade
Of a iislerman's hut. 1t was, ..If Solo
mon was the son OF David. and Joab the
son Of Zeruiah, what relation was Ter.
utah to Joab?' Every man among the
clergymen said father and when as
sured that the answer was wrong, there
was much curiosity excited.
will you state that again?" asked
Mr.. Collyer. laying down his fork. It
WAS restated.
Well. said he. david and Solomon
had nothing to Ito with 1t, but Zer1iiah
vas Joab's father.
..Noi guess again.n was the reply.
The ciergvmen all insisted that tho
answer was right, and Mr.. Collyer said.

His Few Parting Words to His Son.

Old Sol Graysoh was long regarded ns
the icost noted. infidel in Arkansaw.
His pious neighbors were often shocked
by bis unrevereutial expressions, and
the supers;itious were afraid to pass the
house at night or during dark, cloudy
weather. One day the news that old
Sol had been stricken down with rheu-
matism of the heart spread around.
People left their plows and shops and
hurried to the bedside of the suffer r.
not particularly through sympathy, but
because they wanted TO witness the old
mans violent struggle with the devil.
'Ah. old man." the neighbors had often
remarked, 1--WE want to be present when
YOU die. You'll take water then. old
man." The old mar would reply that
he had never taken much water during
life, and that he didn't think he would
lose his appetite for something stronger
at life's close.
Well. the time had come and the peo-
pie gathered around. The old man
seemed to be suffering greatly.
''How do you feel. old man?" asked
the superintendent of the neighborhood
Sunday school.
Pretty rough" and he drew up his
face and squinted his eyes in pain.
''Old gentleman, you are dying. A
few more moments and you will be be-
yond the philosophy Of earth. Yon have
not believed in "a hell; you have lived rs
though YOU never expected TO meet the
devil. and now we ask you to try and
reflect"
You are right" said the old man.
''You are right, my life has been ter
ribe mistake" and calling his son to
his bedside he said: John, I'm going"
Yes, father replied the boy.
''ll is right that should give few
parting words to you.' The visitors
press d forward and leaned over. mo
man should die without leaving advice
to his son." He WAS silent for a mo-
ment, and the superintend Mt. fearing
that he might die before the words Of
advice and repentance were uttered,
said:
But what were you going to say to
yoHr son?'
..Yes. had almost forgotten it. john
you will find my revolver in my Sunday
boot!' 1rnrcicr.
