Charles Dickems.

AS the torrent Of cheap as well as
new publications that is constantly
pouring in upon the reading public
has tendency to crowd the old
favorites into obscurity, it would be
well.before the arrival of Charles Dick

UNIQUE and fantastic than ever before
Unlike most other writer's, Charles
Dickens has no prototype and
no successor. In fact, his style
is SO original that it cannot
be initiated even by the best i'm
itator. As portrait painter OF lovely
women he is failure, but then they
we're not in his particular line, and
inasmuch as all artists exec either as
landscape. portrait or animal painters,
and all actors are adapted to comedy,
melodrama or tragedy, 50 all writer's
are more or less identified with GER
tain literary classes. But his grotes-
que women, such as Sallie Brass, the
Marchioness and Sarah Camp are
uncomfortable. Susan Nipper too,
Mrs. Screwton and dear old Peggoty
are as indelibly stamped upon his pages
as are Julius Caesar, Napoleon and

though, is cold but vivid charac-

the opinion that a dude existed in

another journalist who was also in

mired a well.dressed man, and that
he did not think it was fair t ap

pensive or striking clothes. That
is true; but then expensive or striking
clothes, even if they are made by the

does the coat of the farmer when it is

seem, therefore, that the appear

An Ohio Ghost.

There is Il highly respectable family
by the name of Mark living in the vi
cinity of Sugar creek, Fayette county,
Ohio, who claim to have had remark
able experience for many years; and
what they willingly relate may be of
interest to many readers. The family
settled in the neighborhood in an early
day, when this section of the state was
sparsely settled. On the banks of
Sugar creek some woodman had built
a frame structure, and for some years
had taken up his abode within it.
Eventually, however, changes occur
red, and Mr.. Mark took possession of
the house. One very warm night while
sleeping alone in an upper room, he
states that he was looking toward the
open window, unable to sleep, when IA
stately, serious-looking man in broad
cloth glided into the room and APP
preached his bed. The apparition-
for so he regarded it-had strange
unearthly expression of countenance,
and didn't use it's feet in moving about.
Mr.. Mark was utterly terrified, and, as
he says, leaped almost to the foot of
the stairs and hurried from the build
ing to the home of a neighbor as rapid
ly as his feet could take him. Some
time afterward, while workmen were
procuring gravel from pit near by,
they came upon barrel in which was
secreted Il hideous skeleton, which be-
came the basis of many unpleasant
conjectures. On another occasion.
after the gentleman referred to had be-
come the head of Il large and prosper
GUS family, while some of the children
were playing about the kitchen-door,
q cadaverous object, with a strange
livid complexion and long outstretched
arms, rose apparently out of the ground
Immediately in front of them. The
affrighted children ran into the house
to their mother, screaming, and un-
able to make known what they had
seen. 1t was not long after this affair
until one of the daughters died. A
few months elapsed, and the mother
was awakened about 4 o'clock one
morning by an ominous sound in the
front yard. She arose to investigate.
About midway between the house and
the street gate her deceased daughter
seemed to be standing, as if in trouble,
and as if she were searching for some
thing that had been lost. The mother
says that it all seemed so real to her
that she attempted to approach her
daughter but was disappointed by see
ing her suddenly vanish. The entire
family are firm in the belief that all
these circumstances were real, and
nothing will make them more iGdig-
nant than to call them in question.

Labor-sarIng In .he worIa,. work.

When the historian of the future
writes the history of the nineteenth
century he will doubtless assign to
the period embraced by the life of
the generation terminating in 1885, a
place of Importance, considered in its
relations to the interests of humanity,
second to but very few, and perhaps to
none, OF the many similar epoehs of
time in any of the centuries that have
preceded il; inasmuch as all economists
who have specially studied this matter
are substantially agreed that, within
the period named, man in general has
attained to such greater control over
the forces of Nature, and has so COM
passed their use, that he has been
able to do far more work in a given
time, obtain a much larger product.

Portable subsistence in n far greater

to accomplish twenty or thirty years
anterior to the time of the present
writing. In the absence of sufficiently
complete data, it is not easy, and per-
haps not possible, to estimate accurate

saving in time and labor in the worlds

that has been thus achieved. In few
departments of industrial effort the
saving in both of these factors has
certainly amounted to seventy or
eighty per cent; in not a few to more
than fifty per cent. Mr.. Edward At.
kinson, who has made this matter a
special study, considers one third as
the minimum average that can be ac-
cepted for the period above specified.
Other~authorities are inclined to assign
a considerably higher average. The
deductions of Mr. William Fowler,
Fellow of University College, London,
are to the effect that the saving of
labor since 1850 in the production of
any given article amounts to forty per
cent; and the British Royal Commits

when q new county was organized the
newly elected officers, such as sheriff,
clerk, judges, juries, etc, had to be in
strueted in their duties by the presi-
dent-judge and the States attorney.
These things are all in our recollection,
fresh and distinctly remembered. The
people were quite uncouth in their as
pect, but not so unhappy as one would
suppose. The great difficulty which
the people had to contend with was
sickness in many parts of the country
The farmer kept many dogs to guard his
sheep, hogs, fowls and himself. His
fences were very high ones and his dogs
were always ready to defend their mas
ter's family and property. Hogs be-
came so numerous in the woods that
many of them became wild and multi
piled until the war of 1912 gave their
flesh atvalue and they were killed. Cat
tie and horses multiplied greatly in the
meantime and the people had begun to
drive them over the mountains at an
early date to q market. The people
lived in log houses, raised Indian corn
for their bread aud, as to meat, they
killed wild turkeys and deer in ahund-
ance in the woods. Domestic fowls and
hogs multiplied wonderfully in a coun-
try where there was so little winter for
which to provide. And as for pleasure
carriages, we do not believe there was
one in the State when it was organized.
Not few persons wore moccasins in
stead of shoes, and leather was made OF
deer skins for coats or hunting shirts
and pantaloons. Thus dressed, equipE-
ed with large knife and a good rifle,
the men went about their daily busi-
ness.
when the State was first organized
we do not believe that there was even
one bridge in the State. The roads
were few and 1t was no easy matter for
stranger to follow them. For ourselves
we preferred following the pocket-com-
pass or the sun, to most of the roads in
the Virginia Military Tract; and this
even ten years after the organization of
the State government. Travellers car
ried their provision with them, when
starting from any ofthe towns into the
then wilderness, now thickly settled
parts of the State. Judges and lawyers
rode from Court to Court, though they
generally got into some settlement be-
fore nightfall. Yet not always, as we
shall long remember. When the
streams were swelled with rains, they
swan every stream in their way"

Nine. VOTERS jubilee has just been
celebrated in Vienna. This lady,
whose real name is Contesse O'Sulli-
van, is one of the greatest artists of
the Hofburg. The following anecdote
is related of her: AT the last meeting
of their imperial Maiesties of Austria
and Russia at Kremsier, the Hofburg
had performed before the sovereigns.
Later, the Empress of Austria invited
Nine. Wolter, wishing to present her
to the Czarina. She did so, calling
her "Mme. Wolter." After this pre-
sentation the Empress said, in an
aside to the actress, ''You must not
mistake my intention, dear Countess,
in calling you Mime. Wolter' instead
of Countess O'Sullivan. | am proud

Long Distance Cavalry Riders.

Long distance rides were feature
of the army exercises in India last sea-
son. Capt. Dean-Pitt, officiating A.
@. M. g., of the Mhow Division, has
issued pamphlet in which the official
reports are reproduced, giving full
particulars of each.
The most important experiment, in
point of numbers engaged, was that
which was undertaken by Gen. Luck
under the camp exercise at Sibi. Here
complete cavalry brigade, consisting
of the Fifth Bombay Cavalry and the
Belooch Horse, nearly 800 all told, was
called out. Gen. Luck appeared to
have aimed at giving as practical q
character as possible to the enterprise.
In his belief, distance marches per-
formed by few specially trained
and selected men are of no value as
proofs of what the regiment can
perform; hence the calling out of two
entire regiments.
An old horse, over IA years old, broke
down after the first 80 miles; another
fell out at so miles. Other of the old
horses were exhausted later in the
march, and two died. These casualties
happened in the Fifth Cavalry. The
Belooch Regiment was more fortunate,
for of the 1926 who started, only two
were unable to complete the march.
In the detailed account of the condi-
ton of the horses of the Royal Artil-
lery which took part in the long march
from Kamptee to Jubbulpore and
back, weakness and age certainly are
not shown to have gone together, a
16-year old horse being entered rs in
fairly good condition after march of
315 miles; while horses of II, 13, and
ID are included among the class in
good condition.
