A Joke on wagstaG.


Young Gadsby-Say, Wagstaff. I've got .
big joke on you, old boy. You're so fond of
hoaxing other fellows; somebody has
hoaxsd you so finely this time. You thought
there was real mermaid on board one Of
the Cunard steamers, and I've taken whole
day and been on every steamer in port. and
asked about il, and ha, hal ha there amt
any mermaid on any Of 'em.
In his 'Recollections Of Veteran Man Of
Letters" Sir Henry Taylor, speaking of the
year 1894, says: Just then the enthusia SIN
for Lord Byron's impasstonei but often
rather empty moroseness and despair though
ii may not have suffered a general COLLAPSE
had passed away from some of the more cul-
tivated classes and found, perhaps, its surest
retreat in the schoolboy's study and in the
back shop. And thither also had retired the
sympathy which. when il is accompanied by
anything dazzling in personal attributes or
circumstances, intensity of self-love can
sometimes excite in the popular mind The
more just admiration felt for his brilliancy
and wit and his general poetic power re-
mained in large measure: but even this. per-
aaps. drooped more or less from icing en-
tangled With the dead body Of the other en-
thusiasm 1t is not easy for pas
sion to pass into reasonably warm regard.
Meore's genius, though Of course with much
diversity, was yet too much akin to Byron's
for the one not to have lost by the opposition
Of the other; at the dawn Of Byron's day it
gan to pale its Intellectual fire. and when
that day declined its own lustre was so far
bedimned as to make extinction seem to
some cold calculators little more than
question OF time"

What DO We care for the outside gloom,

Sitting here IN this coy room,
With your dear presence made so bright,
The whole wide world seems all in bloom:
Lean back and smile on me-that is right.

Now aud then. Loose your bonny hair
From under its silken azure band;

crowds which might prevent a possible Gus

vent purchasers from seeing what there is for
sale. In Germany one often sees a bench
placed where there is beautiful view for
weary wayfarers to rest and enjoy it. In
England every body cries out when speak of

one might easily induce all England to live
joyfuily locked up in solitary cells, if you could

that he didn't know-couldn't say-he was in q

The Church and Women.

CONSIDERATION OF THEIR SOCIAL AND DO.
MEsTIC POSITION IN MODERN CIVILIZATION.
Bishop Spading in the North American Review.
Ii Christian society has not realized its ideals
concerning women, IL has never been without
their elevatins and refining influence. To the
action of the church in the middle ages we are
indebted for the monogamic family, which lies
at the basis of our civilization and is the strong
hold of all that is best in our social life Had
the popes and bishops not withstood kings and
barons when they sought TO continue the polyg-
anous practices that among the German bar
barians were lawful, monOgamy would have
persisted among the ruling classes OF Europe
and with the development of popular power
had such development then been possibIe
woman would have fallen to the place that She
today occupies in Mohametan countries. In
deed, the preservation of all western Europe
nom the blight of MOhameSanism Is due TO the
action OF the church, which united and was
alone able to unite, the warning factions of
western semi-oaroarians, and TO hurl them
century after century, against the strongholds
of the hordes whose dream of heaven was "A
place of sensual delights.
The objection has often been urged that in
making man the head OF the family the church
Is unjust 10 woman. But the family is an
organic unity, aud cannot exist without subor-
dination and authority. Either the husband or
the wife must be the depository OF domestic
authority, and unless it can be shown that the
woman is better fitted than man to exercise
this power, no injustice has been done. Ply
sically man Is stronger than woman: he Is bet
ter able to confront the world and to do the
work by which the members OF the
family are maintained in health and
comfort Historically society grows out OF
a wariike and barbarous state OF life and since
woman are less fitted for war than men,
the defense of property and right is naturally
Entrusted 10 those whose hands hold the sword
But IL Is not necessary 10 examine into the
genesis and evolution of society TO find reasons
for giving the hardship OF the family 10 a man:
we need but look into the heart of woman tn
see there an impulse so strong as life TO look up
10 anu follow the man she loves. Between
man and woman there ought to be no question
OF superiority or inIeriority; they are unlike
and IN nothing do they differ more than in
their relative power to escape from their i'm
preSSfOns. a woman understands ONLY what
she feels, whereas a man may grow to be able
to look at things as they are in themselves re-
to himself
