Quits the Game.

That Amelie Rives has decided to
abandon literature for art is the cur
rent report. This is good thing for
literature. however rough it may prove
for art. She has steadily deteriorated
in her writing, exerting most perni-
ciors influence by her lurid works.
Her "Quick and the Dead" gave a
strong impetus to the fleshy school Of
literature, bringing out an army Of
young women to write OH indecent
themes. One of the latest and worst
is Abb s. Jackman, W 10 has published
a most astonishing novel. The hero
inc possesses ''rebellious bust, y
walks about the woods in decollete
attire, goes to sleep IN the wet grass,
and longs sternaliy for man. There
are dsws that fall in the daytime, aud
the moon has way of shining in
daylight which is very perplexing to a
studeat Of the new astronomy. A
capital move would be to cast these

Tie Manufacturer and Builder give,
the following method Of ascertaining
the height of an object. Compare the
length Of the shadow cast by the OBJ
iact with that Of an object whose
height is known. Thus, suppose the
object whose height is desired TO be
knowa is tree. The only apparatus
ne luired will be tape measure, or
other means Of making measure
inent and stick. Force the end OF a
stick (say two or three feet long) into
the earth so it will stand vertically.
Measure carefully the length Of the
stick that projects above the ground; |;
then the length Of its shadow. This
will give the necessary ratio for the
h sight Of the tree. Measure with the
same care the length of the shadow
cast by the tree; multiply this by the
ratio found and the quotient will give
the desired result with degree of ac-
curacy, depending, of course. ON the
caro- with which the measurements
we're made. As All example. let us
make the following supposition: Let
tho stick in question have three feet
projecting above the ground; let the
shadow Ia ensure four and halt feet.
The ratio between the height OF the
sick and the length of the shadow is,
therefore , divided by al, which
is the factor by which the length OF
the shadow cast by the tree must be
multiplied to give the height OF the
tree.

Is It Foolish.

Much has been said against the ex.
travagancs of many funerals and the
folly OF wearing mourning for the
dead. One can understand readily
the natural desire tn show respect for
the departed. although the impulse
may be carried to an undue length.
An eastern paper has this pertinent
paragraph on certain phases of the
question:
"The ridiculous extreme to which
wearing mourning for ones dead has
been carried has received a slight
shock. The custom when man goes
into mourning for some octogsnarian,
for whose death and whose money he
has been patiently awaiting for years,
to array his man-servant, his maid !
servant, his OK and everything that is
his in black seems to border on the
ludicrous. Why not paint his house
black, put stove polish on his teeth
ank ink on his nailsl In fact as soon
a. he ceases to confns his badges OF
grief to himself, where il he to draw
the lins2 1t is safe betting that where
there 10 much black theres more
money and less grief. However, tive
American girls recently proved that
they understand in broad sense tha,
wearing Grape means an outward and
visible sign Of sorrow for a great loss,
and 81 the other day when their fal her
failed and lost evsrv cent Of his fortune
they both appeared at y we'll known
watering place in dark and dismal
black Z"
There il great deal of force in
this view of the case. however its
vigorous expression may seem to CRATE
upon the sensitive feelings Of sorrow
ing friends. Happily, the custom Of
private interments Is becoming gen
sral: nor are sensible people ans
longer in the habit Of judging the
depth of q mourners grief by the
length Of the Grape veil or the width
Of the black hat-band.

That Kansas outrage where = man
and his wife were tortured almost to
death for the supposed murder of a
child, when that child was all the time
near by, hearty aud we'll, is an awful
illustration of the insane irrationality
and dreadful pltilessness of mob.
1t was assumed that there had been a
murder, and two persons were sus
pscted. Nothing definite was shown.
or in that case could be shown. Yet
the mob simply demanded one thing,
that the suspects must confess aud
must point out where the dead body
uf the child lay hid. The demand
was an impossible one, yet for failing
to comply with it the couple were
tortured all but to death. 1t is
terrible lesson against mcb violence.
and we wish we could hope that It
might act ~ stay against such out
breaks everywhere, but a mad mob
listens to no warning. The pity is
that the legal procedure Of the country
has become ~ tardy and inefficient
that the nlass Of the people have
como to look upon it as affarding no
adequate protection against or punish

THE KINGS DAUGHTER.

No badge by which she may be known Of
men;
But though she walk In plain attire now,
She In the daughter OF the King; and when
Her Father calls her 1t His throne to woit
Sho shalt be clothed Is doth befit her
state.
Her Father sent her in His land to dwell,
Giving to her work that must be done;
And since the King loves all His people we'll
Thus when she stoops to lift from want
and sin
The brighter shines her roynlty therein
She walks erect through dangers manifold
While many sink and fall on either hand.
She breads not summers heat nor winters
cold, -
For both are subject to the Kings command.
She need not be afraid OF any thing,
Because she is daughter OF the King.
Even when the angel comes that men call
Death
And name with terror, it appalls not her.
She turns to look at him with ouickeucd
breath,
Thinking II is the royal messenger.
Her heart rejoices that her Father calls
Her back to life within the palace walls.
For though the land she dwells in is most fair,
Set round with streams, q picture in its
Frame
Yet often in her heart deep longings are
For that imperial palace whence she came.
Not perfect quite seems any earthly
thing
Because she Is the daughter of q King
