Albert Friedrich, convicted at Seattle of
murder. The court speaks of Attorney
Tyler, counsel for the defendant, as, with

an exception to refusal of the court be-

deceased having committed suicide. The
opinion states that after twice examining

fact in the case which could Justify an
argument to the jury that the deceased

1t Was of Old.
At what age under the old regime a

wrote with cruel candor of Stella's fad
ing charms, and sent her, as birthday
gift, rhymed Receipt to restore her
Lost Youth" at period that we should
consider the prime of life. The caustic
Dean of st. Patrick's wondering
How angels look at thirty-six''
proves a sharp contrast to a more mod
ern writer, Prof. Lewes, who, in his
Life of Goethe, speaks of thirty-three as
a fascinating period of woman's life,
being that in which he considered her
to have reached the full development OF
her powers of mind and body. Such =
sentiment would at once have
been considered rank heresy, yet
thirty-three was the age at
which Frau Won Stein proved
dangerous to the heart of the poet who
had survived the more youthful charms
of Gretchen, Charlotte, and a Lii.
Prof. Lewes' view seems to be based on
the old French idea of each age having
its distinct and honorable position and
limitations. No people, perhaps apprc-
ciate more perfectly the innocent flower
like beauty of adolescence than the
French. Like the loveliness of child
hood it is to them joy and delight to
be made much of while it lasts, and like
that period it is expected to have its
definite limits. The line between ,jeune
file and rteille file is in that polite land
drawn with sharper and more
merciless hand than in our own; yet
it is the glory of that French life, with
its clear and practical limitations and
its alteration of youthful beauty, to
have presented the finest flower Of
courtesy that the world has ever known,
to women who had lost the charms Of
early youth. and ruled the minds, and
even the hearts, of men by their wit
and their wisdom, their vivacity and
their grace. 1t is impossible to read
any description of salon life in Paris
without realizing the immense power
that such women as Madame de Ram
bouillet, Madame Deffand, who could
tolerate everything but the common
place, Madame Necker, her brilliant
daughter, Madame de Stael, and her
cherished friend, Madame d Houdetot,
exercised in literary and political as
well as in social matters.-Harper's Ba-
Zar
