The Question of skippine.

A good work of fiction, whether in
prose or in verse-we are here speaking
only of good works-is a work of art
and can be rightly enjoyed only by en-
tering into sympathy with the artist S
mind and accepting his work according
to his intention. In perfect poem the
place Of every word, in perfect novel
the place, if not of every word, of ev-
cry episode and of every paragraph, is
important, and the reader who skips
throws away the pleasure he has meant
to derive from the harmony of compo-
sition, in which very possibly the beau,
ty of the whole may chiefly consist,
and despises the best part Of the artist Is
labor. He might as well go to see q
good play and then willfully miss ev-
cry alternate scene. Self Culture

slight indications of trouble seem to
her unimportant She goes on, with
increasing suffering, until life itself

caused by the dangling of a piece OF
rope.
According to the letter referred to, a
Swedish steamer was sailing ahead OF
the German warship. and the emperor
commanded an officer i'll command OF
the warship to order the steamer out OF
the course of the warship.
"We cannot do that on the high seas,
your majesty replied the officer. "In-

be where they are. -

shifting his breast in anger, ''and

out of the course -
