Andsrson's Charming Tales, the Swiss
Family Robinson, the Children OF the
Abbey, and books OF thar kind are IL a
fair way, when maturer years are
reached, to appreciate the great
masters OF fiction.
Mr. HoWells believes that while a
majority read fiction for amusement,
and but few examine a book as q work
Of art the effect on the character,
particularly the former, cannot be over
estimated. The sensational story
published IN serial form is a melo-
drama in ten or twelve acts.
aud the more horrid aud sensational
the more 1t is applauded by the
gallery n not in the boxes. The people
who revel IN the blood and thunder
melodrama are the greatest readers Of
sub-csllar fiction. And it is a curious
fact that while these people applaud the
heroic sentiments OF the stage, rather
than the acting, and want 20 have vice
punished or virtue rewarded in the last
act or chapter, &c Is from their ranks
the evsr-increasing criminal army Is

Robert Bonner has been so long prom

a successful journalist, publisher, and

pIvoRcEs ii FRANCE.

IN France there exist two modes OF the
legal separation OF husband aud wife
who do not agree: divorce and simple
separation, for both OF which applica-
tiOu must be made TO the courts of JUS
tice. by divorce the marriage Of a
couple is completely dissolved aud they
are permanently separated. In con-
sequence Of simple separation they do
not live together any longer, but their
marriage remains valid as 10 their prop
erty rights. Such a simple separation
is legally removed az once without any
further fOrmality, as soon as the two
separated parties have been reconciled
TO each other and live together again.
According to a report Of the depart
ment Of jDstice Of the government Of
Francs, for 1890, recently published,
the courts of justice OF that country,
from July II, 1854, 70 December 81,
1890, decided 3S377 divorce cases,
granting the divorce IN 33,S7O cases.
In 1890. 7,456 divorce cases were decl-
ded and the divorce was granted In 6,557
eases. ia the same year 2,04l petitions
for simple separation were presented, OF
which 1870 were approved. For every
thousand Of marriages solemnized IN
1850 there were 24divOrces and simple
separations during that year.
Divorces occur In France less fre-
Quenuy among the richer than among
the poorer classes. or the total number
Of divorce cases stated about - per

The life OF the Western border, now
fast vanishing, might never have had a
competent historian, had not happy
chance taken young Philadelphian
into Wyoming and Arizona three years
ago. After his return to the East, Owen
Wister wrote story about the cowboy
and his life, and this story was so sue
cessful that he wrote others, and then
went West again, at the request of the
editor OF Harper's Magasine, to continue
his study OF this interesting type. To
sketches of the cowboy, Mr.. Wister has
added the desert inn keeper and trader,
the frontier troop, and the Indian de.
bauched by civilization. Specimen
JONES'" his latest story, in the July Har.
per's deals with the chance inmates of an
adobe tavern in Arizona. The picture
of this lawless company will not attract
timid persons to the Southwest, at leas,
not until the favorable reports of bullet
proof clothing have been confirmed, but
it will hold the reader from Che first
word to the last.
