We ought to be perfectly happy that
we live in this glorious 6 of scientific
thought. We believe there never was
another age in which the astronomer of
Harvard observatory could PROFOUND the
following problem and receive so many
perfectly reasonable answers to it: Sup
pose,' - said he, that three snakes, each
two feet in length, should touch each
other by the tip of the tail, thus making
n circle six feet in circumference. Sup
pose that each snake should begin to
swallow the one in front of him. In
what way would the resultant figure,
after each snake had swallowed the one
in front of him, differ from the original
circleY' The answers have been many
and various, some of them, we are in
formed, "entering the consideration of
the fourth dimension of space" because
any one of the snakes would have fol-
lowed the two in front of him and yet
have been swallowed by the two back of
him, and, therefore, would be both in
side and outside of his two fellows. The
man who lives in an age when men can
tackle and grasp and make so clear to
others an idea of this sort has no bust
ness to be going about talking of the
good old times, or looking hopefully for
ward to anything more millenniumish.

A Walk with Gladstone.

Mr.. T. p. O'Connor has thus described
Mr.. Gladstone's appearance while they
were out for a walk together at Hawar-
den:
Standing closer to him than / had ever been be-
fore, l was rather surprised at the slimness Of his
figure. He IL as innocent Of the ample waist that
marks with all of us the approach OF middle age
as though he were yet a youth. The shoulders
are not as broad as l had thought, and the whole
impression / got was OF a physique wiry rather
than broad or strong. His limbs especially seemed
active, and he moved about with the alacrity of a
man who had never allowed himself to be troubled
with an ounce Of superfiuous flesh.
l cannot describe adequately the effect OF hlA
face upon me. 1t gave to the great gladiator
n sweetness and gentleness that touched me
greatly. had a good look at his face just as we
were about to sit down. 1t Is an extraordinary
face, and, like a beautiful prospect in nature, no.
veals new beauties under every new phase. The
compilation has a pallor-healthy but at the same
time almost as transparent as wax-that gives an
immense air of distinction, and, to my eye al
least, adds greatly TO the beauty OF the splendid
face.
Mr.. Gladstone, l have always thought, looked
best when he sits down In the house OF ommon
after a strong and vehement speech. He Is deadly
pale, his breath comes and goes quickly, his
breast heayes and there Is an expression-wrapt
grave, slmple-shau l call 1t an air OF apostolic In,
splrRtionf-that Is beautiful to see. l caught
something of this look as he assembled the hill u
little out OF breath. There was a sweet gravity In
the expression that seemed To give me a new In
sight into his character. You know that many
people, owing to his great parliamentary adroit-
ness, have the impression OF Mr.. Gladstone that
he Is what the French call ruse, or, In plain Eng
lish, somewhat OF an old fox. He himself also
fancies that he Is a very sly dog; and then he has
a certain comical and quizzical look in his eyes
now and then that gives him a pleasantly sly air.
But I don't think he's half as sly as he thinks, and,
beyond question, frankness and simplicity are the
prominent characteristics of his temperament. /
saw, or thought l saw, all this as l looked at his
side face In climbing this hill. There was such
simplicity. such modesty, that l thought 1 caught
4 glimpse TO the very depths of a pure and trans,
parent soul.
