Creseuro Sustained by Divers.

Have you any idea of the enormous
pressure sustained by submarine divers
while plying their dangerous vocations?
We will take 100 feet as the average
dep that which such tradesmen work and
use that as basis of calculation. At o
depth of 100 feet, which does not seem
excessive when we consider the fact that
there are spots in the oceans which are
approximately five miles deep, the pres
sure on the divers body is A pounds
for each square inch of surface. Let us
see what this means. The average man
Of 1856 pounds has body of sufficient
proportions to present 12 square feet of
surface to the pressure of the waters.
This means that the ordinary diver must
work i'll II place where his body is sub
jected to pressure of 38 tons. Nor is
this all, For every 27H inches of depth
descended below the 100 foot line which
we have adopted as basis of calcula-
tion there must be added one pound
pressure to each square inch of the di-
ver's bodily surface. Persons who think
that divers regularly descend to the bot
tom of the oceans in the deepest places
will probably be surprised to learn that
the greatest depth to which man has as
yet attained is only 210 feet st. Louis

Clever Word Painters Of the
Early Magazines.
GEMS FROM "FRAZER'S."
Sixty Years Ago Writers Dealt
With Great Authors.
LAMB, IRVING, SMITH SKETcHED.
Remarkably Fine Etchings in Semi
Caricature That These Old Publi-
cations Gave Their Readers.

We Americans have good reassa for be-
ing proud of our handsome magazines,
several Of which lead the world in excellence
and variety of illustration. They are not
only superior in pictures, but are vastly
more interesting to the general reader, on
account of the wider variety of contents
and the broader scope of editorial man
agement. This, take 1t, Is the main rea-
son for the increased interest manifested
during the past few years in periodicals
of popular grade. Timely topics receive
intelligent discussion from an editor whose
duty formerly was only to designate which
of the articles contributed should be hon
ored by publication. Science, Art, Social
and Religious Problems, Political and Edu-
cational questions, and all leading topics
Of the day have their share OF space along
with the long and short stories, sketches
OF travel, poetry and tales Of adventure.
The book reviews rank high, but more
space could be well given to news Of au-
tnors, new books and their makers.
In this respect the modern magazine, with
its wealth of beautiful illustration, abun-
dance of coated paper, and gorgeousness OF
cover, falls short of the English periodical
back IN the thrtles. Take for example the
interesting papers that are found in Fra
ser's Magazine, from 1880 to 1898, devoted
to noted essayists and writer's. Not only
are they delightfully."- written, but in point
Of illustration they exhibit delicacy and
originality Of treatment worthy of repro
duction, even in these prolific half-tone
days.
OF course l do not mean to assume that
they equal the productions of the present
day, but the few examples given herewith
which are only possible by reason of pro.
cesses recently discovered and not yet
erfected-easily show that the artist had
genius in conception as well as art in exc
cudon.
The great charm of the Fraserians was
their art in writing, more than in illustrat.
ing. There were groups of illustrious liter
ary characters, and but one Maclise, whose
artistic genius is but family suggested
in the eighty-one illustrations published
in " Fraser's Magazine during the
period above mentioned. There is a
touch of caricature in both sketch
and comment; but this does not Of
Iend, nor did it when the subjects were
alive. Then there is a great show of mys.
terry as to the originals, but there is no DIFF
Aculty in Identifying the subjects of The
sketch.
Take for example the following clever
etching of
