that upon that determination depends, to O great
extent the future of the cause. The public. more
over are especially nxious to be Informed on TINS
point, and they can found no safe conclusions upon
O study which avowedly puts the hes, face possible
upon the movement and slurs the ugly features.
Professor Ely shows that the Socialist Labor
Party and the Anarchists at present far apart,
with no prospect that their differences which are
radical will be adjusted lie shows also that
between the trades-unIons, the Knights of Labor
and the Socialists, there is practically no clear
dividing line Each adopts something from the
platform of The Others. and sometimes good deal
Is thus transferred The Professors opinion, as no
doubt that OF all who have given the subject any
serious study, is that tho present movement will
continue and that it will have to be reckoned with
in politics. lie believes that there is danger IN the
outlook but also ample ground for hope; If. that is
to say the classes in whose hands power at present
lies are enlightened enough TO appreciate the
gravity of the situation aud Wise enough 10 apply
the Only effective remedies. The authors suggested
remedies may be summed up as return. on the
part of society, to the fundamental principles OF
Christianity There can be little doubt that if this
advice followed most labor dim culties would
disappear though il clear that civilization
would sustain no injury from the adoption OF an
altruism hardly compatible with the survival OF
tho energies and aspirations which constitute what
the world calls progress Nor can it be overlooked
that the propos ton OF Professor Ely. however
elevated and beautiful, IS anything bnt practical,
the feasibility of changing the constitution of
society by sudden conviction being. to say the east
rather violently at odds with any hypothesis of
evolutionary growth
Nevertheless Professor Ely has written a valuable
in IN at mi uirif ID

workingman is not less wholesome aud timely
than that which he gives to the employer His
work is perhaps more useful for it's suggestions
tpan for its statements. 1t demonstrates the
seriousness of the problem which the people of the
United States are called up0n to solve. and it
makes it clear that before a satisfactory settlement
is reached both sides will probably have TO make
important concessions.

the excellence Of his intentions, we codld well nave
spared awhile in Japan" he remarks. " woman
has always been the friend and the companion OF
man. and has been the mother of the rising genera
tons. man on the other hand has always been the
governing power" Upon this outcome of his
studies he enlarges at considerable length. But the
phenomenon IS not peculiar to Japan. On the
contrary, we have understood that in all parts of
the world the mothers of the rising generation are
invariably women. Mr. Maeay's argument IN
support Of creative design, put forth more than
once and with an impressive manner. Is an earnest
of his laudabe intentions. "Either the universe
came by chance" he says, "or 1t was the creation
of some intelligent being. Now. which is more
PROBABLE, that this infinite system of revolving
worlds was the work of an intelligent creator. or
that il was merely a chancef Any one VINO
believes that the universe came by chance tit TO
believe anythng. OF course the universe was
created by some intelligent power" Here our
author shows that he neither comprehends inc
objections of his opponents nor knows now 10
reason. Such triding with the rravest of problems
is great injury to the causc OF truth; and no less
injury Is likely to be done by the unfortunate
parallels between Buddhism and Christianity. in
which Mr.. Maclay's ignorance of Buddhism is seen
to be very wide and deep.
"To write and read" says Dogberry. " comes by
nature" Mr. Maclav we fear, is one OF those to
whom nature has denied the faculty of writing
good English. Even when his grammar is souhd,
which is not always. and when he avoids slang,
which he never does very long, he is hopeessly
unhandy in putting sentences together; his work
has literary quality; his narratives are not
brisk, and bis descriptions are feeble. Here Is
sample extract: The scenery to he appreciated,

description the passage leaves too much to the
imagination 4; and it is fair specimen OF great
deal of the book. The authors defects, however,
are not exclusively literary. He lacks the
ohservant eye and the principal reason why he
fails to reproduce vivid picture of the country
through which be passed Is that he never formed
such picture in his own mind. Miss Bird saw

THE TALLEsT or TOWERS.
A Proposed Monument One Thousand
Feet In Height


The gigantic tower to be erected in
Paris for the exposition of 1889 will be
1000 feet high, and is thus described
in recent Paris letter:
The base Of iron is composed of four
pyramids, each one square, fifty feet q
side, and diminishing toward the top,
which is twenty feet side. These
four pyramids are separated from each
other by space of 800 feet, and for
stability they are anchored in solid
masonry. Two hundred and thirty
feet above the ground these pyramids
are united by gallery fifty feet wide
This gallery, which is covered with
glass, will be used for restaurants.
soirces, &c. The next story has q
room, covered with glass, 100 feet
square. AT the summit is glass
dome, with terrace, and from this ter
race the exposition will be lighted by
electricity.
Visitors will reach the dome by
means of elevators. Four of these
elevators, constructed like the Swiss
railways, will be placed in the four
pyramids, and we can 20 seven times
as high as the Column Vendome and
stand 600 feet higher than the top of
Mount Valcrien. The eyes can sweep
the horizon for a hundred miles
In the cupola astronomers will be
established with their telescopes, plu.
riometers, &c. Experiments hereto.
fore impossible can be made here. The
tower will form an immense para.
tonnerre. and when there is u storm
everybody In the tower will be struck
by lightning and not feel any effect.
To produce this result the conductor
will be interrupted for distance of
two yards and the lightning will jump
from one section to the other with con.
tinual explosions.
The iron used in the construction of
this gigantic, monoment will weigh
about 1000 tons. OF course the critics
are very busy prophcsying the failure
of the work on account of oscillations
caused by the wind NJ. Elirel answers
by saying that, with an impctuous
wind Of seventy feet second, and a
pressure of hundred pounds on every
square yard, the tower will not sway
more than four inches. With a
tempest-the wind hundred feet a
second and pressure of $50 pounds a
yard-the oscillation will be not more
than six inches. The oscillations will
be very slow because of the great
length of the part which vibratcs, and
1t is certain that it will be much less
than in columns of masonry, where
the elasticity Of the mortar Is the chief
cause Of marked oscillations.

iced lsDarlsus.

Says writer in the London Illustrated
Neos Asparagus is plentiful and good
this season. wonder II everybody who has
a freezing machine knows how delicious
iced asparagus is? 1t simply needs boiling
as usual, draining, dipping In oiled butter
and putting into the freezer till thoroughly
frozen. BY oiled butter mean, Of course,
butter reduced to the condition OF oil, not
what is commonly called ''metod butter"
The best way TO prepare oiled butter is to
place the quantity OF butter required In a
covered Jar, to put this into a saucepan, aud
to let water boil around IL till the butter Is
thoroughly melted. A Kind Of curd falls to
the bottom Of the jar, and the clear oil
must be carefully poured of 1t. Many cpl
cures prefer this as sauce to "melted but
teri to eat with boiled asparagus. The
vegetable, dipped in oiled butter and
frozen, is eaten alone, with no further
preparation but dipping IN salt on the plate
II is almost worth while living to have iced
asparagus few times in the year. Like
every other good thing, 1t clogs the palate
II partaken Of too frequently.
