GOOD CHILDREN IN BOOKS.
Little Lord Fauntleroys Not Found in
Actual Life.

From the Chicago Herald.
Papa" queried thirteen-year-oldg girl with
a somewhat despairing tone, as she closed the
book on finishing Little Lord Fauntleroy.'
why is it that all the good boys and girls are
only in books?" Coming thus from a mere
child the question was one that produced as
constituent and forced reflection. The tone of
the child was one that indicated regret and hui
mlliation; something if there no use in
trying TO be good. for the reason that it only is
in books that beautiful characters are to be
found There is plant in this cry of the young
girl that is brimming with a pathetic discour-
agement. Her own life. as contrasted with that
presented by the idealists, seemed base and in
ferior. Despite her best efforts. she found her
self unworthy and utterly unable to attain the
lofty heights trodden by the good boys and girls
OF the books. There Is too much OF this kind
of perfection presented for the study of youth
Children afforded unat:ainable models.
which discourage them by their mfaliibility
| They dwarf the aspirations of the average
child. they repress ambition and demorallze
effort at improvement.
The same thing applies in other directions
anG is equally damaging in its influence. The
lovers OF the novels are frequently ideals of tine
impossible kind which grossly mislead the
lovers of practical life. They are induced to
believe that the creations of the novelsts are
what the real people should be: they think that
it is their own fault that they fall short of the
beautiful characters presented. The man whom
the fond woman marries has scarcely a single
feature of the model and she is. in consequence.
unhappy. She fancies that the unikeness be-
tween her husband and the ideal she has found
in the books is TIE fault of her life partner.
and not Of the creations of the authors. In
the same way the husband is disappointed in
the wife. She does not in the least resemble
the models of the books and a result the
married life is failure or else falls far behind
what il should be.
The good boys and girls. the clinging lovers.
the lofty-souled wives, and the noble husbands
are found only in the books. No Little Lord
Fauntleroy' is among the lads of the ordinary
family, and the admiring boys who would wish
to be like him aad who labor to that end will
only waste their time. 1t is TO be wished that
this pernicious perfection of character pre-
scented by the writers should cease. 1t is Great
ing false hopes and producing the damaging
reaction among the young who are striving to
climb to the summit of the lofty heights. Per-
feet i'll appearance are many of these Fauntle-
roys. they weak examples for imitation;
they spineless, and goody-goody to an ex-
tent that ought to nauseate the moral apprecia-
ton of healthy, natural boy.

| Addenbrooke remained behind pacing tn,
ridiculous, incongruous apartment while al
unwonted storm of emotion ragged within him
The parts of the puzzle lay, fitted together
in his hand; it only remained for him to steI
forward and proclaim the solution of mos
commonplace enigma. An inefficient postman
a careless housemaid-on some such undigni
fed trihe had the whole complication hung
like many another complication before it,
No doubt. sooner or later, the missing clev
would come to light. when he himself had made
its discovery of no Importance whatever.
Had he been of a melodramatic turn of mind
Addenbrooke might have laughed aloud at the
irony of the situation.
His own dream was shattered forever; but Of
that. for the moment ne scarcely thought
What he saw most clearly was this: That by
his own act. he must make Lydia over into the
hands of a man unworthy of her-unlikely to
make her happy; to think of whom in connec.
ton with her seemed contamination.
But the man whom Lydia loved withal,
There was the sting, the shock, that for the
moment took away his breath, and made him
pause pale. motiODless. in his walk.
Then, suddenly, before the modest and I'm.
critical mind of Addenbrooke flashed in vivid
colors the image of two men-of himself and his
friend.
He saw Lawrence Fleming, with his snowy.
unreliable cieverness, his moral coarseness; the
man stOOu before MN TeVealeO IN all Ills second
ratenesS.
And he saw himself, John Addenbrooke, as
he had always been, i'll the dignity of his IRE
proachfui life-of his honest, patient labor.
He looked on this picture and on that, and
knew each for what it was worth.
Then ensued in the peaceful breast of Alden
brooke a terrible war of thoughts and emotions.
Life, which had hitherto been a simple mat
ter enough, a mere case of doing your duty
and Winding your own business. had assumed
a,complexion of cruel difficulty.
And yet he knew that the more obvious
aspect of the matter was not a complicated one.
Lydia no more belonged to him than dog
who had followed him home and had been
claimed by its master. a
He was bound, in common honor, to reveal
the facts of which he had accidentally become
possessed.
Should he go to Lydia and say: This man,
whom you prefer so infinitely to myself, is far
less worthy of you than 1. He has not led bad
life, as men go, but he has not led good
one :? Men of the world do not do such
things, but then Addenbrooke was not a man OF
the world.
And if he had no other right over Lydia, had
he not that of his own lifelong love and her
three weeks tolerance of it?
The door opened to admit Lawrence Flem-
bundle of papers and pipe in his hand.
ANY tobacco?" he said, taking the empty
seat at the writing-table.
Addenbrooke nodded toward a Jar on the
mantel-piece, continuing his troubled prone
made across the room.
1t was dawning, painfully, but surely, on his
mind that his hands we're indeed tied; that il
only remained for Lydia to choose between
them.

Flies Said to Have a Language.

An English scientist has made the sur.
prising discovery that flies have language
of their own, inaudible 20 unaided ears,
though, no doubt, distinctly audible to the
ears of insects.
This is not the huzzing tone common to
all flying insects, which is produced by the
rapid movement of their wings, and is but
mere incidental effect as meaningless as are
the sounds of our footballs while we are
walking and conversing with friend, but
it consists of other tones made voluntarily.
no doubt for the purpose of limited com
munication with one another.
The discovery was made by means of the
newly invented microphone, while magni-
flying the tramp of a fly walking on the
table, till it sounds as loud as that of a
horse passing over a wooden bridge. By
close observation during these experiments
other sounds were heard different from
those of its footballs or wings, which proved
to be its trumpeting calls issuing from its
proboscis, and resembling somewhat the
distant whinnying of a horse. Such are
some of the results of that marvellous in
strument, which acts for the ear of man as
the microscope does for the eye.-Exchange
