Shakespeare In London.

Shakespeare "came to London" en-
tered, in fact, into eternal fame through
its gates. Why he came, or precisely
when, is largely matter of conjecture.
Over this, as over so much Of his life,
lies veil that he himself never chose to
lift. That he was poor is certain, and
highly probable that he was quite un-
friended. Whether he had any conscious
ness or persuasion Of his almost miracu-
lous gifts we can only guess. The i'm
pulse that led him there cannot have
been altogether due to chance or whim,
but that he could have foreseen the
splendid result is altogether impossible.
Like many less gifted mortal, he sus-
tanned the struggle Of hope and fear.
The first folio Of his plays sells today
for large sum Of money, but let us
imagine romance worth 20 islands of
treasure.
Suppose some one, wrenching away a
shaky panel in an old house in Warwick
shire, came upon concealed cupboard,
wherein lay, thick with the dust Of 300
years, roll of manuscript, curled and
yellow with age. And suppose that, ON
unfolding it, he found it bore the title
1.-THE Life Of Me, William Shakespeare. +"
Here surely would be record Of un-
paralleled interest and chiefly the chap
ter which should tell of how he came
to London. Think of what that step was
to him, consider the power of his mind,
imagine it at the age of 80, looking
back with calm unruffled insight on its
own history as drama, and then reflect
what he, Shakespeare, could say about
that youthful entry into London, and
how depict it. A kings ransom could
not buy the chapter, and temple would
be poor place to house it.-Chambers'

THE BUTTERFLY.
How the Gorgeous Beauty Bursts From
His Ugly Outer Shell.

Last summer noticed milSweed
caterpillar travelling across the piazza
floor, evidently in search of his final
shelter. We secured him temporarily
under tumbler, but there, to our sur
prise, he proceeded TO spin his little
web and hang himself head downward
from the bottom Of the covering glass
in such wise that in the course Of two
days we saw the whole process of change.
even to the splitting Of the caterpillar
skin and the final wriggle from it that
changed him into the most exquisite
transparent, nile green chrysalis, but
toned with gold. Toward the end Of two
weeks this began to grow Opaque, and
gradually we saw from under it the
thorax, antenn9, head, wings and ab-
dominal rings in perfect coloring of
black and red. One fine morning che
burst this outer shell Of sin and hatched
himself" not "a cherubim," but a
more tangible aerial creature, though
not able to float off at once, as perhaps
even cherubim do not. No; his wings
were only as big as dime pieces. And
still the wonder grew" as we watched
them grow and unfold under our eyes
in breathless amazement, and one at
least in reverence and awe. 1t seemed
such definite change from death into
life II was not so difficult then to i'm
agine soul freed from its mortal en-
velope since this marvel could be done.
The little creature, after expanding
to its full size, became very sociable,
liking to be held on the finger, and after
l had once unrolled his proboscis with a
pin and guided it to drop Of sugared
water quickly learned to find his food
and sucked up a drop sin no time.
After few days he floated out Of a
carelessly opened window, and l was
glad and sympathized, for l, too, lonRed
to try my wings beyond four walls.

The Merccnnry.

The mercenary fighting man is per-
son who seldom receives his due reward
during his lifetime or his Just need Of
fame after his death. The character is
one so alien to the age in which we live,
IL belongs so entirely TO the days when
fighting was the only occupation for a
gentleman, that it has forfeited alike our
study and our sympathy. Volunteers we
understand, but mercenaries we do not.
The world apparently has grown to
think that fighting as profession-the
bare trade Of arms unconsecrated by
any sentiment Of cause or country-is
not noble thing and should not, how
ever ably and gallantly followed, be ad-
judged the highest praise.
Possibly the world is right, but we
suspect that change Of system in the
training of fighting men has had far
more influence than mere abstract hu-
manity in creating this opinion. In
these days Of short service and swift
wars the old type of professional fight
ing man has become extinct. In every
country the recruit is forced through
soldiers education at high pressure and
returned to civil life as speedily as pos
sible that he may earn moray to pay for
the education Of others. No man, unless
he be an officer, devotes his whole life
time to the military calling, and conse-
quently the few mercenaries-th name
is too ignoble for them-who are known
to us in these later times are without
exception oflicers-Gordon, for instance,
Valentine Baker and Hobart. 1t was not
so of old, when the rule was once sol
dier always soldier, and the only
school was war; Then few men dreamed
of rising TO command except through
the ranks, and many gentlemen preferred
to stay all their lives in the ranks or at
highest TO carry the ensigns Of their
companies. Veteran soldiers were worth
their weight in gold, and though by no
means innocent Of rapacity followed
their calling from sheer devotion to it
and thought themselves unlucky if they
died in their beds Macmillan g Maya

Derivation Of "Chariyari."

1t is stated that this word is found in
French in the fourteenth century, and
reference is made to Littre. have nc
means of referring to Litue, but desire
to indicate the use of the words "chery
feire" by Cover. give the complete
sentences from the prologue to the "Con.
fessio Amantis:"
For II men loke In holy chirche
Betwene the worde and that they wirche.
There is full great difference.
They prechen US In audience.
That noman shall his soule empeire
For al Is but a cherry feire
This worides good, 80 AZ they telle.
Also they sain there is an helle,
Whiche unto names SHINE is due,
And hidden us therefore escheue
That wicked Is. and do the good.
The late Professor Henry Morley, In
the "Carisbrooke" edition of the "Oon-
fessio Amantis" (1s89, page 89), simply
gives "charivari" as the equivalent Of
"chery feire." Is this the form In which
the expression occurs in early French
II SO, it would seem that this puzzline
word should yield its secret to persistent
investigation on the part Of French
scholars. though there are two words to
trace instead Of one.-Notes and Que

The Literary Agent.

When we next hear the question
asked, "What shall we do with our
boys?" we shall answer, "Make them
literary agents." All you want is lit
tie room in q central situation, pens and
ink and lady typewriter. Capital is
quite unnecessary, for II the agent is
not absolutely destitute of wits the flies
soon walk into his parlor. How does he
tempt them? Nothing can be simpler.
In an age Of publicity nothing is sacred
from the interviewer, and after few
paragraphs as to his whereabouts have
been judiciously placed in the newspa-
Sers he shares the fate Of emperors and
actresses, and is interviewed, either in
The Daily Chronicle or The Bookman,
both of which journals devote much
space to the chronicle of small beer.
The interviewer naturally begins by
saying that there are few men better
known than the agent, and proceeds to
describe his servant, and his maid, and
his OK, and his ass, and his personal ap-
pearance with the minuteness which
the British public expects In an inter
view. my authors" are then touched
upon, and the agent modestly says that
they came to him unsought, unasked.
lyon would be surprised if I gave you
the names Of one or two," and SO on
ad nauseam. Then note is handed in.
and the agent bows the interviewer out,
after arranging that few copies Of this
nice homely chat may be sent to him
for private circulation. A few days later
the flies arrive. their manuscripts in one
pocket, their preliminary fees in the 9th

EDITOR REGISTER:
Dear Sir:-I have just received your
letter of the Goth inst, asking me to
make plain statement of the grounds
upon which the Allen County Gas
Company claims it should be univer-
sally patrOnized and supported by
the citizens of lola.
My aversion to a newspaper dis
cussion would certainly lead me to
decline your kind invitation were it
not for your suggestion that such
statement may assist the people in
arriving at a more intelligent under
standing OF the merits of the question
and perhaps aid in bringing about an
early and satisfactory settlement of
the controversy between that COM
paDy and those citizens who favor the
organization of a cooperative COM
pany.
l assume that every citizen inter
ested in this question not only de-
sires to do that which will be FOR the
best interest of the city, but is also
willing 10 be fdir towards those who
have invested large amount of labor
and money in local enterprise. These
are the real questions: What is fair
and what is for The best interests of
the city.
1t is easy to give some kind of an
answer to any question, but 1 have
faith enough in the people to believe
that they want the correct answer TO
these questions. Those vino do not
have this faith must believe that the
people have suddenly come to the
conclusion to nullify the Golden Rule
and to kill any enterprise or industry
that has the temerity TO show its
head in lola.
In order to solve these questions
correctly it may not be Improbable
to briefly review the history of the
Allen County Gas Company and its
predecess' RS.

THE EDITORS LETTER.


lola, KANs., Dec. Goth, 1895.
II. l.. HENDERSON,
My Dear Sir: AS you are well aware
the people of lola are deeply inter-
ested in the question of natural gas
for fuel and lights, and for several
weeks there has been great deal OF
discussion as to whether the obliga-
tions of justice and the best interests
of the town demanded that the Allen
County Gas Company should be uni
versalIy patronized and supported
or whether it would be to the interest
of the city to encourage the organiza-
ton of a Cooperative Company. AS
this discussion has developed very
wide differences OF opinion as to
the grounds taken by each of these
companies as the basis of its claim to
public favor, it has occurred to me that
a plain statement of these grounds
by recognized representative of the
respective companies would be
read with interest by the citizens of
lola, and might by laying before
them the arguments of both sides,
help them to arrive at more intel
ligent understanding as to the merits
of the question, and thus perhaps aid
in bringing about an early and salts
factory settlement of the whole mat
ter. l have therefore written letter
similar to this to Mr.. G. Z. Benton
asking him to write such statement
for the Allen County Gas Company,
and should be glad if you would
favor me with a similar statement for
the Cooperative Company it being
the understanding that neither writ
er is to see what the other had writ
ten and that both articles are to ap-
pear in the same issue of the lola
REGISTER.
Very truly yours,
CHAS. f. SCOTT.
