constant charm of Hdrper's Noathtg IS the
variety of its contents. In the April number
nearly every form OF intellectual entertainment
is generously supplied travel, biography, arch
aeOlogy, history, art, poetry, humOr. the
essay, and the novel. The fF0ntispiece IS
wonderfully faithful reproduction of the child
angels in MuriIlo's great painting, the I'M
maculate Conception" and there are some fine
examples Of modern art in the illustrated papers
on "a Visit to SaTdis," the HOhenzOlieTn
Dynasty" From the Fraser 10 the Columbia
a Lovers Pilgrimage" 'WOrkingmen's
Homes" Hisginson's historical series, sid
Roe's sparkling novel, entitled Natures
Serial Story" A feature Of this number is the
Easter poem by Helen W. Ludlow exquisitely
illustrated by Gibson. The departments are
always good, and this month the Easy Chair
diseourses in his best vein Of the great agitatOr
the late Wendell Phillips.
Julian Hawthorne, who is-not often found in
such disputati0us company, is among the con-
tributors to the April number of the North
american Rerieir. He writes delightfully-aud
sensibly, to0-of . Literature for Children
and speaking of Hans Christian Andersen says
he was the last writer OF childrens stories,
properly so-calied; though considering how
well married to his muse be was, 1t Is a Won
der as we'll as calamity that he left no de-
seendauts" Other subjects discussed IN this
number of the Rerieg are The Decline Of
American Shipping" Shall Our Civilization
be Preserved, !" The Development Of Religious
Freedom, . " Changes in the Climate of North
America "a Plea for Modern Languages,
and Recent Criticisms of the Bible"
A spirited portrait of the famous animal
painter, Rosa Bonheur, forms the frontiSpieee
of the April number of G0dey's Ladys Book,
and there IS also an excellent portrait of Presi-
dent Zachary Taylor. The serials The Nut
Brown Maid and Tam increase in inter-
est. and there are many entertaining stories
and poems. As usual, the fashion department
abounds in valuable information and IS Law
ishly provided with fashion plates and pat
terms.
The April number of Dealorsst's Monthly Is
highly entertaining and instructive. A beau
tiful steel engraving. entitled "A Farewell
/ Token forms the frontispieges and among the
| contributors are such favoTite writers as Jen
ME June, Margaret Z. Sangster. Lizzie w
| Champney, Mrs. Hunserford. and Ella Wheeler
! There are several capital short stories and
/ much valuable information as to the fashions.
| Specially notable among the many interest
1 inc stories and articles that make up the con
t tents of the April number of PeteYs9as HaggziH,
Z is an illustrated sketch. entitled The Utterly

WHO Is to Blame2

In New York, one morning last week, a
lad Of fourteen was found on street corner
shouting at the top of his voice: I'm Butts
the detective!" His behavior was so re-
narkable that a policeman took him to
the station house and the committing nagis-
trate, supposing his mind to be deranged,
sent him to the hospital. 1t turned out,
however, that this precocious young Ameri-
can had been pursuing a course in blood-and-
thunder literature. and in the hope of meet
ing with adventures as startling as those
recorded in the flash stories he had read,
had deliberately gone on drunken spree
He sobered up in the course of the day and
the authorities wisely sent him home, where
it is to be hoped he received the proper
parental attention.
From Philadelphia we have story equally
surprising. A teacher in one of the public
schools having had reason to suspect that
something uncommon was going on among
her pupils, made an investigation which re-
suited in the discovery of a regular organ
lied band of would-be rufians who called
themselves the Philadelphia Cow Boys"
and every man-that is to say, every boy-of
whom was armed to the teeth! The crop OF
reyolyers, daggers and bludgeons which their
pockets yielded was indeed fairly bewilder-
ing. They, too, had been reading dime
novels and cultivating taste for train rob.
berries, assassination, arson and other pleas
ant pastimes Of the border outlaw
If it were possible to get at the facts, we
suppose a similar state of things would be
disclosed in nearly every large city in the
country. The influence which the cheap
sensational literature of the day is exertine
upon the youth of the country is really be-
You'd calculation. 1t is not simply pervert.
ing theirs intellectual tastes but corruptine
their mora instincts They are taught moi
only to adltire the physical powers of such
] desperadoes Aas the James brothers. for in.
