genius was nothing more than the infinite capacity for taking pains. This old contro- versy has brought forth two very readable articles recently, both on the side of in- spiration. One Is by Arthur Machen in Literature, the other by Charles Leonard Moore in The Dial
 MT. Machen declares that CarlyIe's ut- terance was one of the most untrue things ever said. To support his position, he cites two conspicuous and familiar examples Stevenson and Scotland really makes out very plausible argument in the compari- son Of the two, but it is not convincing. To be sure, Mir. Machen could not have cited two more notable examples to sus- tain =. Argument. In the whole history of literature there Is no other example of such rapid and inexhaustible productiveness as Scott; the fertility of his genius is mar velous. But one can hardly with truth make the assertion that Scott accomplished this work by inspiration" alone, without taking the time to read and study upon the various themes upon which he dwelt for 1t must be remembered that Scott be- gan his prose writing comparatively late In life and after he had made for himself a. name as poet. Scott himself tells us how, in those early days, when, on account or his lameness and an enfeebled constitu-. ton, he read with avidity all books of his- tory, travels and voyages, together with fairy tales and eastern romances-thus un- consciously storing and preparing his mind for the inexhaustible treasures he was af- terwards to give to the world.
 On the other hand, and we may say at the other extreme, was Stevenson, follow ing in the steps of the master, but who constantly bemoaned the fact that writing easily and fiuently was not natural with him, and that 1t required labor and much strenuous effort for him to produce his work. So that because Scott wrote mas terpieces with such apparent ease, we can- not say that genius need not make any spe- cial preparation effort, for inspiration" will do 1t all; nor. on the other hand, can it be affirmed that because Stevenson labored with persistent and untirng zeal to polish his work, that he cannot take rank as 0 genius. Edison, whose opinion should be of weight in such a controversy-himself SO great a genius-says that per cent. is ge- nius, and 9S per cent. is unceasing, persist ent and perpetual toll.
 It is a subject upon which an endless amount of interesting things might be said pro and con, and stil1 be no nearer the end of the argument This intangible some thing outside the estate of the body of flesh; this unconscious realm which manifests itself by what we call Inspiration" most cer- tainly must be present; but without the 9S per cent. of infinite capacity" the rich mine revealed by inspiration would be left unworked and undeveloped.

HORSES AND MULES.
Now Is the Time for the Breeder to
Raise Them Probably.

e P Smith in the Michigan Farmer.
Now that the bicycle is undoubtedly on
the wane, and the true standing of The
horse can be measured without prejudice
1t is quite evident to all that there win be
money in raising these animals for the
future. The days of the horses usefulness
have not passed for good. on the con-
trary, we win probably see a gradual re-
vival of the animals popularity, espec-
Tally for pleasure driving. great many
disposed of their horses to take to wheel
ing because of the novelty of the fad,
aud they are now returning TO their first
love again.
There is a better demand now in the
cities for good horses. Poor horses will
never more be needed. Neither win small
horses be needed. Moderate to large-sze
horses are the best, and they should be
raised either for their speed or strength.
Weight and strength combined with slow
ness in draft horses will not do Medium
heavy weight draft horses that have a
brisk walk and a good trot. sell in any
market for sums ranging from $3.50 up
ward. This is an age of speed, and the
slow business horse is ruled out Well
matched pairs of horses that are good drv-
ers, and crossed with French coach
horses. frequently sell for 81, 600 to 81 200
per pair. Horses of this class are needed
for private stables, ana they must COM
bine several good qualities-medium
weight moderate speed, docility of tenn
per and good appearance in harness. style
and speed without too much mettle are
the chief requirements. }o
Now horses can be raised from colts TO
3-year-olds for $50, and horses sold at this
age that have good blood will frequently
sell for three to five times that amount.
Colts have little demand, and 1t does not
pay 10 raise them for the market. One must
figure upon holding them until good mar
ketable age. In New York a horse Is not
much good before 1t is six years of age.
But horses intended for that market should
be the cream of the herd, and they should
be raised as to come up TO the three
or four hundred dollar standard.
Besides horses, mules are good animals
to raise on the farm, and many farmers
prefer to breed them to horses, finding as
they claim, more money in the work. The
recent demand for mules by the United
States government for the Spanish war
showed how few mules were really In ex-
istence in the country. Now there VIII
be an increasing demand for mules for
Puerto Rico and Cuba in the next few
years, and there will probably be more
money than usual in this business. These
certainly ought to be two good markets
for our mules, for horses are not adapted
10 the climate of the islands, and 1t will
be many years. before electricity Will in
wade them.
