Mrs. Emma MalOY.

Mrs. Emma Malloy has been one
of the best prosecuted women in the
United States, says the Pacific
Christian Advocate. Whether this
has been for righteousness sake or
for her own faults has beenthe ques-
ton before thepublic mind. She eand
her friends have claimed from the
first that the former was the true
cause ; her enemies the latter. Be
tween these two classes are many
who look on with indifference. The
facts in her favor ars
THAT she has been honorably
acquitted of the charges brought
against her, both in the civil and
ecclesiastical courts.
2.-She stands as an acceptable
member of the church. AS such
rights and privileges are certainly
equal to those accorded to all citizens
by the civil courts, among which is
that she must be presumed innocent
until it is proved otherwise.
3.-The law of Christian charity
no less than justice, demands that
of the same church should
lay aside prejudice and put no OBJ
stacle III the way of each others
success in Christian work.
4.-Mrs. Malloy is n lady of extra
ordinary power as a public speaker,
on the platform or in the
pulpit. Her teachings and exhorta-
tions are scriptural and impaired by |
her with simplicity, earnestness and
Christian pathos.

ground to work on and he perfects cure.
all diseases of the head, throat and chest he
appears to be equally successful. His brother
physicians are forced to admit that man of
his cures are almost miraculous. His success
lies in the fact that 10 las had great deal Of
experience in ~ : european hospitals, uses the
finest surgical instruments now used, and
avails himself of all the latest improvements

Tho Christmas Trcc.

No home, especially where there are chill
dren, is complete during the holidays with
out Christmas tree. The latter are grand,
elaborate aud costly in the families Of the
rich; but even householders Of circumscribed
means can put up trees that will sparkle and
please for very trifling outlay Of money.
Tinse is cheap, but it glitters, and children
rarely stop to estimate values
A pleasant effect is produced by brushing
the prickly foliage of the tree here and there
with mucilage and then spriukling common
salt upon it. Among the cheap, home made
ornaments to hang upon the tree may be
enumerated: Empty egg shells adorned with
decalcolnania pictures, waluuts wrapped in
tin foil or gold paper; pine cones vanished,
then brouzed or sprinkled with salt: cram
berries or pop corn strung on Irvine; gold
paper chains, made by FASTING one tiny ring
within tie cher; colored tissue paper. etc

Female Novelists.

Miss Braddon's first great success was
"Lady Audley's Secret" published few
months after EAST Lyune," which was the
first great success Of Mrs. Henry Wood, says
The Spectator Roughly speaking, the books
were contemporaneous. People read them
together, and, perhaps not unnatura4Iy,
placed their authors in one class. the general
tendency being, if we remember rightly, to
put Mrs Henry Wood somewhat above Miss
Braddon. The subsequent achievements OF
the two writers failed to justify this compar-
ative estimate. AS novel after novel came
from Mrs Henry Woods pen, it cannot be
said that her popularity with the ordinary
novel devourer, who simply wants few
hours Of imaginative excitement, showed
any signs of diminution, and to him it was
matter of indifference whether the excite
ment were provided by Miss Braddon or Mrs.
Wood. More careful readers, however, no
ticed that while the novels of the former
were characterized by sustained fecundity of
invention in the matter, and increasing grace
and finish in the manner, those Of the latter
displayed a mOnotony of structure which
spoke of narrOwneSS of inventive resource,
and which threw into prominence a certain
colloquial commOnneSs of style that had at
first escaped observation. Mrs. Wood put all
her best work into the first dozen of her books,
and during her latter years she was living
in public favor not by her work, but on
her reputation. That reputation could never
have been won by 1.-THE Story of Charles
Strange" The tale is made up of mysteries
which have no vital connection with each
other, which are exceedingly clumsy in con-
struction, and which, when they cease to be
mysteries, reveal themselves as mares nests.
The attempt to interest ourselves in the plot
being a hopeless failure, we direct attention
to the style, and amuse ourselves by culling
such flowers of speech as "blushing furi-
ously' and "a spell of kisses" An unedu-
Gated servant speaks of his fellow servants
as ''retainers;" young lady is described as
being 'enshrined" in a reCtory; and with
regard to a certain mysterious crime, we are
told that "some people said felony, others
whispered forgery" Mrs. Wood having
been apparently under the delusion that
felony is some special offense like murder or
arson, instead of being the legal name for a
class of crimes in which forgery is included.
1t would have been quite as sensible to write,
"Some people said dishonesty, others whS-
pered pocket picking" The redeeming point
in Mrs. Henry Woods poorer work-of
which 1.-THE Story of Charles Strange" pro
vides an average specimen-is the vivacity
which is inspired by self confidence and sue
cess. Mrs. Wood believed in herself, in her
plots, in her characters, and in her style; and
it is wonderful to what extent such belief on
the part of all author will compel the belief
of other peoDle.-BCston Herald.
