This is psuedo- religious young man.
with blotchy complexion, lank and
unlovely. One must not try to sup
plement the pen of Dickens, and
draw the development OF this monstros-
ity. See him fat and bloated over his
mullins in his complaisant middle age.
Look at his shining broadcloth, his
we'll brushed, broad brimmed hat and
look again at the shabby wife in the
background, her poorly fed, poorly
clad children, and you will see the
whole history epitomized.
And, ineed, if things are so bad as

ter, wouldn't it, for mothers, chaper-
ons and daughters to have no ideals
at all. and not to think so much about
matrimony.

HER IDEAL.

first on its list it discusses, being Eng
lish, the ideal husband of the young
English girl.
He is, it says, over six feet tall and
wears mustaches. These are very
long, and generally blonde, in which
case he has blue eyes, and his COM
plexion is Drowned by tropical suns,
for. of course, he has seen service in
India. He is very broad shouldered
and has handsome hands. He is com
handing in his manner and q dash of
brutality is permitted to him, yet he
has nonchalant and easy carriage.
1t stands to reason that this hero is in
the army, preferably the guards, and
though beautiful and imposing in n
West End drawing room, would be
seen to perfection commanding his
troops. He is of high family and heir
to an old title. His manner Of wooing
is imperious, he demands rather than
entreats, but can be passionate, ardent
glowing.
There he is, a full-length portrait a
creature not of flesh and blood, but of
'
Charlotte Bronte and the author OF
Guy Livingston" are responsible, but
later all the authoresses of all the
penny novelties and most of the
three-volume novels, that only differ
from them in point of price.
But Of course, even in young girls
there is sometimes a difference. There
are few still TO be found whose dreams
are lit by consumptive young man,
hectic and poetical, to whom they
shall minister and who will cling to
them until he sinks into an early grave,
to the last confding in them visions OF
greatness, poems he has never written,
pictures he has never painted, music
he has never composed. A sweet
creature this, with faint cough and
white hands and deep sunken eyes,
but oh! such genius and so clinging.

CoIU,rBUs FOUGHT one, of the br

COLUMBUS fought one, of the brav-
esS of fights for the validity and truth
Of the Scriptures. When, after many
years of indomitable struggle with
poverty, incredulity and scorn, he at
last was permitted to present his
case to the great council of Ferdinand
and Isabella, he had to champion the
Bible as warranting his conviction of
the existence of an antipodal world.
1t was the Bible, nevertheless, that
was interposed between him and the
realization of his project. One of the
doctors declared his idea heretical be-
cause the Bible had reported God as
saying that he would place heaven
over the earth as as vault; he would
spread it like a tent and incline it
over the earth. The mind of Column
bus beheld divine truth in the declar-
alton. God had extended the heav-
ems over the earth as a vault, but the
extension covered a globe, not half
globe, as the less imaginative and less
instructed doctor of the court held.

An ideal husband. cynical people
have a brutal way of saying, is a man
who is married TO another woman.
The other woman's husband is always
in the distance; the other woman alone
is near enough to spy out his inevita-
BILE human deficiencies.
But there are a few types of hus-
bands that never exist in the flesh
husbands who always remain ideals.
The Gentlewoman has been talking

THE boys of yesterday, now grown
to manhood. are responsible for the
ruin of those whom they love and, If
they set about the work of accomplish
ing this result with all deliber alton
could scarcely do it better. They
were poor; they are now rich. They
were restrained, and they mean that
their boys shall have little fling and
keep up their end with the best of
them" They will postpone discipline
and restraint until the boy has had q
little fun and has sense enough to ap-
preciate advice. So they wait and
one day wake to discover that they
have fed appetites that cannot be sat-
isfied, and that the time will never
come when their advice will avail.

Rnyinr Novels by Bulk.

An English paper offers an answer
to a question often spoken: The au-
thor's society is asking why the pub
fishers don't cut the edges of their
three-volume novels. The answer is
simple. Nine -tenths of the public buy
book by its appearance, and "Pater-
noster row" loves "a fat book" Now
il the edges were cut and thicker and
more expensive paper is needed to pro-
duce the same bulk than If the edges
were left uncut.

IF civilization and material progress
count for anything there should be q
steady decrease in the criminal popula-
iation. The penologist who has given
the subject attention, would doubtless
find that during the last hundred years
there has been great change in the
relative numbers OF the offenses for
which prisoners have been incarcer-
ated. With the spread of education
and intelligence it is natural to look
for decrease in the number of crimes
of violence committed in proportion to
population, and if carefully prepared
statistics show that there is also a
diminution relatively in the number of
crimes in general, there is good reason
to take hopeful view and to conclude
that however pessimists may argue to
the contrary, the world is growing
better.

A GENERATION or so since it was the
practice of parents to bring children
up in the way they should go, confid-
ing in the scriptural assurance that
when their offspring were old the
same way would be followed. There
might have been sometimes q trihe
too much severity. and the reins were
in most cases drawn rather more tense
ly than was necessary. but the parents
thought they were doing their duty
and tried their very best to do it.
When they sent their boys out into
the world with serious injunctions and
many secret prayers, it was in the
faith that they would do honor to the
training given, to their families and
their country.
And they usually did. Now and
again there was black sheep among
them, but they were not generation

present race of young men. and they
will answer for the fact that scandal,

unknown in the days OF their youth and
early manhood.
