The era Of huge ships is evidently
upon us. That craft only eighty
feet shorter than the famous Great
Eastern should suddenly smash all
records Of fast voyages on the Allan
tic route from west to east is a fact
OF capital Importance, which cannot
fail to influence the shipbuilders of
the day. The Campania AVID her
twin, the Lucania, are each $40 feet
long. This is as far as the CLYDE
builders have deemed it prudent to
go. But now we may look for some
leviathans from our own shipyards.
We, too, must build vessels which
can beat the records of the New York
and Paris, and we are certain to do
it. The time is not far distant when
American steamships will cross the
ocean from New York to Liverpool
or Southampton in four days and a
half. Uncle Sam will build and
navigate express steamships larger
than the Great Eastern.

The New York Evening Post does
not print any pictures or illustra-

ana MS readers want a paper made
that way. But the editor of the Post
grows rather childish when he saws:
Ihere is as gross absurdity in hav-
Ing pictures and learned editorials in
the same paper as there would be in
running a pack-horse line alongside
a railroad. They belong to different
stages OF civilization. The rude
picture is the earliest attempt of the
child and the savage to give express

peals, when ineligible, to the more
cultivated understanding of the sage
and the moralist." If the editor of
the Post is publishing a paper for
the sage and the moralist" alone he
could afford to drop the pictures, but
so could he also drop the report of
the Brooklyn Handicap" the "Mur-
der on Broadway" aud the News
paper Waits, or jokes which are run
on the editorial page. 1t is true that
crude pictures were "the earliest at
tempt of the child and the savage to
give expression to mental images.
and it is equally true that pictures
represent the highest development of
art in the nineteenth century.

WOMEN are having things all their
