THE MODERN NORTH.
A Short History of the Evolution o.
Classic Prose Fiction.

A Short History of the Evolution OF
Classic Prose Fiction.
There is nothing new under the sun,
not even the novel. The claim to its
modern invention might be retorted by
the assertion that Joe Miller himself
was horn at Athens and educated at
Bagdad by Scandinavian Skald. One
inquirer traces the origin of the novel
to classic writers, another to the Morse
man, third to the Arabs; fourth at
tempts to reconcile the conflicting
theories. Prose fiction, if followed to its
source through mo Tern novels, ideal
romances, medieval tales of chivalry
and the ballads of ruder ages, will
prove to be history told in meter 1t is
in truth an accommodation of the epic
poem to the average capacity of numer-
Gus readers. Medieval and ideal TO.
mances passed from fact to fiction;
modern novels approximated from fic-
ton to fact. In the eighteenth century
novels were narrowed by the reaction
against ideal romance into the realism
of Defoc, then expanded into the real
life of Fielding, and finally luxurate1 in
the Imagination of Mrs. Radcliffe. But
they still reta ned the characteristic by
which they are dist inguished from
their romantic predecessors. Mo1ern
novels, continued to De fictions
founded on fact. Classic Greece and
Rome had no novels in the strict sense
of the term. Among the ancients the
bard became a dramatist; among the
moderns a romancer. The audience of
the Greek bard was the concentrated in
teiligence of city; the medieval min
strel addressed the less cultivated in
mates of scattered baronial halls. 1t
was once conjectured that slavery and
the Oriental separation of the sexes
robbed classic communities of the nov
elist's material. But slavery produced
its Drom;os, and the subordination of
women a Xantippe. The contemplated
causes cele6reS which exercised the
minds of Roman jurists; the life at
fashionable health resorts like Baie or
Sinnessa; the diary of physician like
Musa; the swarm of Jews, ChaldeanS,
Greeks and cut-throatS that fringed the
borders of great cities offered material
enough in rich abundance for social
satirists or painters of manners and
morals. In the baggage of Roscius,
Roman officer serving IN Parthia under
Crassus, was found version of the
Miles an tales of AristideS. But, speak
ing generally, no novelists existed at
Athens or at Rome, because there was
no demand for that form of compost
ton; the delight of the Greek was in
the stage; the diversion of the Roman
consisted in spectacular shows.-Quar.

FARM HORTICULTURE.
Various Points for the Consideration of
Large and Small Fruit-Growers.

Various Points for the Consideration of
Large and Small Fruit-Growers.
One of the greatest drawbacks to the
farmer is his desire to avoid as much
labor as possible. In a certain sense
this is proper, but when the farmer
places his labor where it produces the
most instead of growing some crops be-
cause they are more easily attended to-,
he will find himself gradually becoming
richer. If small area can be made to
yield as large profit as large space, the
farmer should avail himself of such OPP
portunit;es. We read of a gardener
near Baltimore, who sold a crop of
gooseberries, in full bearing, on thir-
teen acres, for five hundred dollars an
acre. This was more than could have
been secured from ten crops of corn or
wheat and ten times as much labor
could have also been bestowed, yet the
crop saved nine years time as compared
with one of grain.
We know of a strawberry grower
whose crop cost him twenty-five cents
quart, yet he sold them at fifty cents a
quart when other growers were glad to
get one-fifth that price. 1t was the
labor that made the crop valuable.
Had he sighted the vines in the least
his profit would have been changed to a
loss. We are not favored with an
abundance of plums in our market,
simply because it requires time and
labor to battle with the curculio, yet
we can point to fruit grower who an
nually grows hundreds of bushels of
plums, and makes large profits by be-
slowing the necessary labor upon the
trees, while his neighbors, who consider
him as undertaking too much risk,
really do more work, require several
years for so doing, and realize less.
The tendency at the present time is
to grow crops at the least expense,
but the question to consider is
whether the more economical modes
are being practiced. There is no
labor, if rightly and intelligently be-
slowed, that will not return itself four
fold. One may, however, do hard
days work, and find it improbable.
There is something else to be considered
other than the simple matter of labor
ing The labor must be applied where
it will do the most good and produce
the greatest benefit. A crop of celery,
asparagus, plums or small fruits may
be costly to produce, but the profits will
correspond with the original outlay.
Our markets are sometimes ''glutted"
with those articles that are grown with
but little risk, labor or attention, while
scarcity exists in other directions. What
is desirable is that the farmer have no
specialties. His object should be to en-
deavor to produce those things which
he believes will be in demand, and not
to blindly SOW his seed every year and
trust to chances for short supply of
the market. Field and Stock

How to Secure Good Growth of Bone,
Muscle and Digestive Powers.
Food that produces fat is not the
proper kind for heifers that it is in

what is wanted is to develope the frame
and secure a good growth of bone and
muscle, and strong digestive powers.
Without these a cow can not consume
the rations required to give large yield
of butter or milk. There is a constant
drain on the system of heavy mixer,
and COW that does not eatheartily, can
not stand up under it. Cows that are
light feeders and give only moderate
quantity of milk, are not profitable for
the dairyman, and should be weeded
out of the herd.
Up to the age of six months the calf
may be fed on skim-milk, with which a
little boiled flax-seed, say one-half gill
per day, should be mixed to prevent
constipation. When the calf is eight
weeks old, it will be found a good plan
to add about one pound per day of
wheat middlIngs or shorts, and at
twelve weeks old the calf may safely have
another pound per day added. A good
ration for the winter will be the two
pounds of middlings per day with what
good hay she will eat. Two quarts of
oats per day may be given in place of
the middlings, when this is not easily
obtained and also to make an occasion
al variety in the ration. All kinds of
stock thrive best when they have full
supply of pure water.-NationaL Live-

The true doctrine of naturalism or
realism is as applicable in political dis
cussion as it is in literature. The SIM
pie truth is the most powerful weapon,
and the moment its blade, welded in
debate, is hidden in rhetorical epithets,
there is an instructive conviction that
there is a reason for concealment, and
that the blade alone can not be trusted.
Goodwin Smith recently said that he did
not believe that since Demosthenes
there had been dozen greater orators
than John Bright. However this may
be, John Bright's oratory has the essen
tial Demosthenean quality of massive
simplicity. The absence of that quality
in polemical speech or writing is sus-
pic:ous. The most effective oratory in
Congress and on the stump is that
which is most direct, and the most pow
erful newspaper writing is the least vi
Imperative. Calling names,' personal
filings and sarcasms, volleys of superla-
tives, elaborate sneers and affected con-
tempt are the lees of discuss on. They
show that the press is ''runnln' emp
tins" They do not convince, nor con-
found, nor convert. They prove mere
" that serious argument is exhausted;
y
In the late English canvass the mani
festo of John Bright, simple, dignified,
almost pathetic in its tone of sincere re-
greet for difference of opinion, compared
with the artificial fury of Lord Randolph
Churchill's, was "a mighty amiral' con-
trasted with Il tossing skitf, and during
the extraordinary excitement by far the
most effective Speeches against MIR.
Gladstone were those of Bright, Goschen
and Lord Harrington, which were also
the most temperate, serious and respect
full in tone.
Young writer's and speakers may well
study this aspect of one of the most eX-
citing and important of modern political
controversies, and learn that fury is not
force, and that ribald vituperation, the
easiest and cheapest of rhetorical tricks.
is not that powerful invective which is
as rare as wit.-George William CARTS,
in Harper'S Magazine.
