There is a trend in the literature of
today toward the occult and mystic
rious, and the modern novelist is be-
coming a sort of speculative philoso-
pher, dealing little with human mo-
tives and emotions and presenting us
with character types and incidents
whose only claim to attention comes
from their violation of all accepted
canons and traditions. This reach
ing out into the mystic shows the
mental drift of the times among
those who are not anchored In the Sc
cure haven of faith, and the novel
list, in touch with the tendency and
disposed to trim his sails to catch the
trade wind of the hour, caters to the
seekers after the unknown and un-
movable.
AS literary freaks the works Of
these novelists may have value
they may astound for the time the
reading public by their very audaci-
ty, but they can have no lasting
worth, and after an ephemeral period
of popularity they become an un-
sought encumhrance to the book
shelf, from which they eventually
find their way TO the junk shop
Donahoe's Magazine.

A Nlosiern Gallant.

A fine illustration of courtly Spanish
grace and chivalry was witnessed in
Glasgow on the occasion of Senior Sara
sate's concert there When the cab con-
tanning Senor Sarasate, Mime. Bertha
Marx and MIR. Otto Goldschmidt drove
mp to the entrance to the concert hall, IL
stopped about yard and half from the
curbstone. The famous violinist jumped
out, and taking his music books laid
them on the top Of the snow and ice so
that his fair partner might get dry shod
into the hall. The onlookers were lost In
admiration Of tho courteous act, which
recalls the we'll known story Of Sir Wal
TER Raleigh and his mantle. s.--London Tit

Any Work Awav From Home

What pity it is that so many girls
and women are bitten with the craze for
"any work" from home! The manager
of one employment agency recently in
formed us that two girls were wanted in
The Office Of a newspaper, remuneration
8 shillings a week. Nearly 800 women
young, old and middle aged-applied.
The duties were to cut open the letters,
unfasten the newspapers and prepare
them for the editor and his assistants,
and the hours were from 8 to 5. What
a sacrifice for the sake of deserting the
joys and comforts of home lifel And all
because presumably they were to develop
into full blown journalists in week OF
two, the universal impression being that
journalism is all simple and such jolly
life. London Lady.

HE COURTED POPULARITY.
And Thought He Knew the Best Way to
Win the Girls.

The well dressed young fellow with a
diamond scarfpin insisted upon seeing
the chief personally. No ordinary de-
tective would do him. His business was
of the first importance, and he perse-
vered until he stood in the presence Of
the head of the force.
"Well, sir, what can we do for you?"
The chief was very busy, and the
young fellows deliberation irritated him.
"You will favor me by being quick"
The youth looked mysterious, drew a
chair softly to the desk and placed his
lips close to the ear of the official.
''Not so loud" he hoarsely whispered.
An expression of mingled astonish-
ment and disgust swept across the chiefs
face.
"What do you want?"
81 want to surrender myself"
The young fellow stared very hard.
He seemed to think he had made a SEN
sational announcement.
"WellY"
II say want to surrender myself"
The chief wiped his glasses and
thought, and his stern look softened a
little.
"What have you done?" he inquired,
casually scrutinizing his visitor.
The fellow with the diamond scarfpin
carelessly crossed his legs, directed his
glance through the windows and laughed
In knowing way.
"That's for you to find out" he loftily
retorted.
"We've got something else to do.
Good day."
The young mans face fell noticeably.
"Do you mean to say that l amt
wanted for something?"
The chief shook his head.
Sand you have no directions to arrest
q man of my descriptions"
"No."
Better look on your books and be
sure. This is an important matter"
81 know without looking"
"And you don't want me9"
"No."
"And can't surrender myself"
| WV az tuo pIeSeuI SHOWING.
There was nothing lofty about his ali
now. In very subdued, quiet way he
pondered.
"Mister"-
An amused smile lighted up the chiefs
countenance.
II guess you're onto me-"
The chief nodded.
"You know l haven't done ANYTHING
to be arrested for"
"Of course | know it."
He rose slowly, buttoned his coat and
sighed. -
1T was a great scheme, if it had only
worked"
The officer lost his patience.
"What do you meanY" he demanded
I've good mind to arrest you as yap i
mo, no; not that, not that Arrest
me for burglary or murder, but not as 4
yag. am trying to get popular with
the young ladies of the flower mission
You would greatly assist me by lockino
