is a good deal different from the
laundry of ten or five or even two
years ago. Methods that used to
be the best in use are now discarded
and the consequence is that new
and improved machinery has done
away very largely with the wear
and tear of clothes, the cracking
and blistering of linen and other
familiar annoyances. The modern
laundry is a place where linen is
treated as linen; where the utmost
care is taken in every detail OF its
treatment, and where the patron is
assured that his work will be as
carefully looked after as if it were
in,the hands of his wife. That's the
kind of a laundry we are running,

The Syrians of New York have found
a Joan of Arc who is going to lead them
to victory over the Turk. She is small.
fragile, winsome, wears polka dot
stockings and curls her hair. From all
the photographs that have appeared of
her in the Sunday papers it is very sure
that the Turk will pack his gripsack
and evacuate as soon as she starts for
the Bosporus. The lost cause of freedom
in the orient now takes on new life be-
cause the indomitable spirit Of naivete
and righteousness is at the front. All
that was needed was prettiness and
sweetness to seal the doom of the great

girlishness of our, age will accomplish

Attention il called to the curious
tendency Of modern literature to rehab-
ilitate some old miscreants. It was not
long ago that we had very learned
book by somebody written to prove that
Nero had been very much maligned,
and was, in fact, an angel Of mercy.
Not long after another book made its
appearance, which proved conclusively
that Catherine II of Russia was a vestal
and had suffered very much from liter
airy gossip Then Ouida wrote charm
ing defense Of shelley's private life, and
made the astounding assertion that
man Of his genius had perfect right
to do as he pleased in morals. If one
were to get his impressions from cur
rent literature, Caligula and Torque-
mazda would begin to shine with new
luster, and Tamerlane would take his
place among the meek and lowly. just
now there is strong inclination in
English literature to rehabilitate Robes
pierre. A life Of that worthy is threat
ened which will show that he deserves
to rank with Washington in purity OF
purpose It is worth noting that the
women authors offer the only excep-
items to this condoning process. Mrs.
Stowe raked down Byron with steel
comb. Another woman has stripped the
Empress Josephine of every virtue and
shown her to be an exceedingly disrep-
utab]e person. Mr.. William L. Alden,
who writes from London, suggests that
there should be a literary process Of
| canonization similar to that employed
in the Romish church, and that in con-
structing saints there should be some
definite method employed.
