Are women Hero worshipersi?

"Women are naturally hero. worship
ers," said Nathan Floyd at the Southern.
1'sIt is said that every woman in Europe
was in love with Napoleon. When Vol
taire visited Paris in his old age the fair
est in France, so the historian tells us,
fastened to lay their hair under his feet.
When Grant was in the heyday of his
military glory he was the frequent re-
cipient of tender epistles, which he
turned over to his wife to answer. Now.
for lack of a greater hero to bow down
to, the women of America are worshiping
ut the shrine of Jim Corbett. What will
the dear creatures do if Negro jackson
puts Jim to sleep? They will have to
transfer their idolatry to the successful
politicians, actors and preachers. The
mania for kissing distinguished men has
not yet run its course in America. What
a harvest of sweetness General Sherman
had! He was a veritable bee, fitting
from honeysuckle to cape jasmine!'-St.
Louis Globe Democrat.

The Madonnas of Botticelli.

As we examine the various madonnas
by Botticelli in the galleries of London,
Berlin, Paris and Florence we cannot
fail to be struck by the ardor of emotion
that seems to have animated the painter
in his search for the perfect type Of
beauty realized in the ssCrowning of the
Virgin" The construction of the head
of the Virgin is essentially the same in
all Botticelli's pictures, but the feshly
mask and the expression vary, and the
final charm of each one remains an I'M
decipherable puzzle.
We feel that this madonna is an init
mate vision of the ideal woman who
unparalleled" the painters soul; SO
Dante speaks Of Beatrice, the object of
surprising desire. We marvel at the
mouth, at the eyes, at the eyelids, at the
sweep of the brows, at the thick golden
threaded hair, at the splendor of the
draped head over which angels hold a
crown, at the beautiful color of the
flesh, which suggests souvenir of the
Vita Nuova."
She hath that paleness of the pearl that's fit
In fair woman; SO much and not more;
She is as high as natures skill can soar;
Beauty is tried by her comparison.
Theodore Child in Harper's.

Remember the sabbath Day.

'In my childhood" said the old judge,
81 recall that Sunday was day of gloom
in my fathers house, for he was strict
Presbyterian, and no unnecessary work was
permitted about the place.
The day was made particularly gloomy
to myself and brother, for we were not per-
mitted to even give expression to our boy
isl feelings by whistling. Indeed whis-
Ting was regarded in the light of an I'M
pardonable sin.
Our dominic did not like whistling on
week days, so it is not to be wondered at
that he regarded it with holy horror on
the Sabbath day.
recall that in thinking of the future,
when l should be a man, / drew much
comfort from the fact that could then
whistle whenever or wherever | pleased,
and drew much solid comfort from the
fact that should avail myself of the priv
ilege.
One Sunday my brother was sick, or pre-
tended to be, which amounted to the same
thing, and prevailed on my father to let
me stay home from church SO as to keep
him company.
So soon as the family drove off to meet
ing that morning miraculous change for
the better, but one that did not surprise
me, came over my brother. He got up and
dressed, and then suggested in whisper
that we go down and see how the fishing
was in Billings mill pond.
We went, and we found the fishing SUI
perior, as it usually is on Sunday.
We had such good luck that we forgot
all about the time till our hunger reminded
us it was past midday. To soothe our con-
science we made up our minds to give the
fish to poor widow who lived near our
house.
AS we trudged honeward whistling
louder than the birds in the trees, to our
horror we came face to face with the
preacher.
We stopped whistling on the instant, but
we could not conceal the fish.
"And SO you two have been fishing on
the Sabbath day" began the preacher, with
