There are some yet living who can re-
call the thrilling Shakespearean recita-
tions of Fanny Kemble, and these per-
haps will be surprised that she died only
lately, SO completely had she dropped
out Of notice in her last days. She was
month older than Gladstone. Since
Mrs. Siddons no woman has possessed
her dramatic greatness. She not only
had the power of expression, but had
masterful intellectually of her own.
More than sixty years ago she began her
stage career in London and won fame
and success at bound. For her there
was no grievous toiling by slow steps up
the hill. She occupies place in Ameri-
can social and dramatic history because
she lived long among US and because of
her South Carolina husband, Colonel
Pierce Butler, whose home on the plan
tation she left because she could not toll
crate slavery. After abandoning the
regular life Of the actress she continued
giving Shakespearean recitations till she
was sixty years old; then she followed
authorship. Her last book was pub
lished SO late as 1882. This gifted wom-
an had extraordinary grace of figure and
carriage, which she said was largely ow-
ing to the fact that in her girlhood her
mother had required her to be drilled in
military exercises by the regular drill
master of one of the regiments stationed

Never Mind the HowIer,.

There seems a tendency lately, crop.
ping out in The monthly magazines, to
lament the degeneracy of the time that
is on us now. Women writers especially
have taken up the thankless role of Jere-
miah and chant in melancholy measure
that all the world is going to the dogs.
The dear old ladiesl One grieves because
servants" so called. have not the loyal
ty to their employers that they used to
have in the good old days when Mrs.
Pepys, for instance, used to beat her
maid Mary for staying out over night
without permission. The odd thing about
this good old dame who writes is that it
does not occur to her at all to blame the
mistresses themselves for any part of the
change, but throws it on all the maids,
although naturally they are expected to
have less brains and intelligence than the
women who hire them.
Another Mrs. jeremiah is especially
concerned for the morals of flirting
wives in our time. You might suppose
from her lamentation that there was not
left in fashionable society good wife or
mother any more, or any married woman
who attended to her domestic duties.
Yet another writer thinks there never
was time when labor was oppressed as
it is now, forgetful altogether of the fact
that in many of the manual trades boy
apprentices had to work sixteen hours a
day even in England within the memory
Of living men and get almost nothing
for it.
Don't believe any Of the croaking old
ravens. The very fact that SO much friss
is made about the deficiencies of domes-
tic service and the wrongs of labor is ev-
idence that these evils never were SO near
being righted as they are now. Remem-
Der just this: If we do wrong, no matter
what kind of wrong. we must pay the
penalty in full. Other people must do
the same, and we do not have to punish
them. Our business is to keep our own
lives high and pure. minding our own
affairs. The fact is, society was never
80 bright or kindly or charitable or clean
as it is now, and one of the best indica-
tions Of it is the increased liberty that
women enjoy. Liberty never hurt any
body, and woman can be trusted to take
care Of herself and her children. The
mother heart Of the sex can never go far
astray.
Pure morality and human brotherhood
were never inculcated practically and
theoretically as they are now. There
never was so much effort on the part of
the rich and intelligent to help poor
people to lives of comfort The general
tendency is in that direction.

"The danger that confronts the great Ameri-

increase of corruption among public men.

they are as nothing compared to the terrible
