THE DUTY OF THE DRAMA.
1t Is to BE Clean and Wholesom
Then to Eutcrfniu

1t Is to BE Clean and Wholesome,
Then to Entertain.
1t is the duty of the drama, first, to
be clean and wholesome then truly to
entertain, to create as powerful Il
charm as it can out Of the tragic and
comic elements Of real life, mixed not
too strongly with the ideal sympathies,
the ideal beliefs, and hopes and poetry
of men. Let it not skip either the facts
or the poetry, for men are made up of
both; and, as 1t hopes to live, let 1t not
be so meanly real as to produce the
thing itself rather than the artistic and
ideal suggestion, and so attain merely
n cheap shock rather than IN abiding
pleasure. or all the reasons for the
inability of men to write plays this ten
dency is perhaps the commonest and
most effective; and we commend this
truth to all dramatists who desire to
practice their art on matters essen
TALLY unclean.
Two or three times in century, per
haps, Il genius like that which produc-
ed 'Camille,' for instance, can take the
corruption for it's subject and make it
interesting; but in hands less gifted
only the corruption appears, and moth
ing more. The same is true of the dra-
matte use made of the vice of so-called
aristocratic society under it's polite We
neer, or of any of the dark corners of
human life, high or low. There is ugli-
ness and pollution in these dark corners
undoubtedly, and it is equally certain
that the field of the playwright is UNI
bounded human nature; but he pushes
his talent to the furtheSt stretch of non
sense and responsiveness when he urges
the reality of his fcvered and obscene
dreams, or pretends that the foul things
he finds crawling in the pit arc typical
of the fragrant meadow above or Of the
broad and Sunlit surface of the world.
AS matter of fact, of course, the men
who write these plays do not pretend
in private to any such specious motive
They think If thing is nasty there is
more money in 1t, and they grin and tell
you that all their talk about their art
and the dark pessimism of life is part
of the hypocrisy Of their trade. Their
art!-New York Sun.

Housekeeping. Departments OF wash
ing, scrubbing, sweeping, ironing, linen

their way as those Of the various branch
es of culinary art Above all, there
should be an especial professorship es-
tablished in each to give instruction in
the art of doing all these things in such
a way as to cause the lord of the manor
to be not sorry that he is still living. To
him the various operations connected
with the management of the establish
ment are WEAKNESS, but that fact does
otin the least interfere with their regu
lar order, so that his insignilicance on
