The Dangers of Style.
Contemporary Review,

A great French critic has declared that style is the man. But surely that cannot be asserted without much quaii- tication. There are some styles which are much better than the man, though failing to reflect the least admirable parts of him and many that are much worse-tor example, styles affected by the artificial influence of conventional ideas, like those which prevailed in the last century. Again, there are styles which are thoroughly characteristic of the man in one sense, and yet are char acteristic in part because they show his delight in viewing both himself and the universe through colored media which, while they brilliantly represent some aspects of it, greatly misrepresent or completely disguise all others Such style was Carlyle'S, who may be said to have seen the universe with wonderful vividness as it was when in earthquake and hurricane. but not to have appre- hcnded at all that solid crust of earth Symbolizing the conventional phleg- matte nature which most of us know only too well. tiibbon again. sees ev- elything-even himselt-as if it were a striking moral pageant.

It is a style which etfectually conceals all the more homely and domestic aspects of Macaulay's own nature and represents mainly his hun ger for incisive contrast

A NOTABLE TILT.
[St. Louis Critic. !

A prominent business man of this city, who has lately returned from New York, speaking of Mir Beechers visit to this city next week, tells the following story
 Some time since, month or so ago, Col. Ingersoll was thrown accidentally into the society of Henry Ward Beecher. There were four or five gentlemen pres ent, all of whom were prominent in the world of brains A variety of topics were discussed with decided brilliancy. but no allusion made to religion The distinguished intidel was of course too polite to introduce the subject himself, but one of the party, finally desiring to see tilt between Bob and Beecher, made playful remark about Colonel Inger- soil s ldiosyncracy, as he termed 1t. The colonel at once defended his views in his usual apt rhetoric; in fact, he waxed eloquent. lie was replied to by several gentlemen in very effective repartee. Contrary to the expectations of all Mir. Beecher remained an abstracted listener, and said not word. The gentleman who introduced the topic with the hope that Mir Beecher would answer Col In gersoll, at last remarked:
 -II pctCHtI, nave you llplIlIS tO say on this question:"
 The old man slowly lifted himself from his attitude and replied
 Nothing-in fact, if you will excuse me fer changing the conversation, l will say that while you gentlemen Were talk ing my mind was bent upon most de plorable spectacle which witnessed to- day.
 w hat was it? at once inquired Colo mel IngerNoll, who notwithstanding his peculiar views of the hereafter, is noted for his kindness of heart. Why" said Mr. Berchcr, as l was walking down town to-day, saw poor, lame man with rrutches slowly and carefully picking his way through a cesspoOl of mud, in the endeavor to cross the street He had just reached the middle of the filth when a great big, hurly rutiian, himself all be>pattered, rushed up to him, and jerking the crutehes from under the un- fortunate man. left him sprawling and helpless in the pool of liquid dirt which almost enguted him
 What d brute he was said Colonel Ingersol
 What a brute he was they all echoed
 Yes, said the old man. rising from his chair and brushing back his long white hair while his eyes glittered with their old time fire as he bent them on Colonel Ingersoll, "yes, Colonel Inger- soil, and you are that man. The human soul is lame; but Christianity gives it the crutches to enable it to pass across the pathway of life It Is your teachings that knock these crutches from under it, and leave it a helpless and rudderless wreck in the slough of despond.

NEVER MIND.

Never mind if your clothing is thread-bare and
 worn,
 And it's colors beginning to fade, Such tritlcS easier far to be borne Than the thought of bill to be paid For debt is a master, relentless and grim, He grants you no rest or rcpose If once you are sold into bondage to him No pencil can picture your Never mind If your neighbors wonder and guess Over things you don't choose to make known, Your motives and actions would trouble them
 less
 If they would attend to their own. There $ naught to require one to make his affairs or neighbOrhoOd gossip the theme; If a man breaks m laws, what he eats drinks
 and wears
 Is his own special business, 'twould seem. Never mind, let the world move along as it will Life changes are certain, we know, And the man that's to-day at the top of the hill May soon grope in the valley below. Live rightly, and islander and gossip will ai To harm you and soon you will find That the very best armOr whene'er they assai Is to say from the heart, Never Mind"
