We reach the foot of q column OF
ron, ,utic and startling reading, and
dis dover we have been lead interest
ing,y on, only to have ourselves
brought face to face with the merits
Of porus. plaster or tooth-wash.
The purpose" novel, If well and in
terestingly written, is rather apt to
defeat its own ends. The youthful
reader will pass over the dry"
parts. so long as he can keep the
thread of the story unbroken, while
the mature turning the weary mind
to fiction as refreshment gets i'm
patient at this capsule method OF
administering moral and physiolog
ical and psychological truths.
To generalise freely, i. is safe to
say thst the most serious obstacle
in the way OF the moral redemption
Of woman is woman herself. The
moral derelictions that she has been
apt to condone in man, she con-
demns in a woman. She will strain
at the gnat of trifiing indiscretion
on the part of a girl friend. and yet
swallow the most preposterous
dromedary in the behavior OF man.
The one mis-step of woman is re-
called with whispers and shrugs,
while a notorious libertine is re-
ceived in society with smirks and
smiles. Woman too often will
theorise on Gods forgiveness OF
sins, but ner feeble imitation Of Him
will be extended towards man and
not woman.
The homely old saying Sauce for
the goose, is sauce for the gander,
comes in here very appositely. Not
one word should be said in favor OF
lowering in the mind of woman
the moral standards she has helped
so strongly to maintain, but the
lbarbed-wire defences must be high
enough to stop trousers as well as
lpetticoats. When she reaches the
Divine perception that shrank not
from the washing by penitentla
tears while n rcbukc was administer
ed to the sacrosanot Pharisee, when
she understands that woman may
really reform, and when she insists
that n man must, there will then bC
fewer fallen men, and as Il conse.
ouence fewer fallen women.
1t is hardly possible to find a bet
ter concrete example of the progress
| in propulsion since the days of tho
Caesars than by comparing the gal
LEY, vessel propelled by cars, with
the modern Atlantic liner. In a yes
sci 600 feet long it would be prac-
tically impossible to fird room fol
more than 400 cars on a side. AS
suming nov, that three men worl
leach oar and six men exert Z
horse power, there must need b,
9, 400 men working at one time tC
exert 400 horse power. At least al
many more men would have to be in
reserve to render progress continu'
GUS. The trifling result is almost
lost to sight when we bear in mind
the fact that the largest ocean
steamer exerts 1850 horsepower
or if represented by man-power,
would require rowing crew OF H.
900 with the same number i'll re-
serve. Even if possible to carry tins
number of men in vessel, by M
means could their power be SO utl
llizcd as to develop Il speed of =,
knots an hour.
