up of her position that Is tender and full of beauty is found in these few lines: Her affection for Dudley had grown so into her nature that it was like the claim of kin ship-quiet, unimpassioned, full of service the love that is the end of many happy marriages; the beginning of few. As she sat there she fell vaguely to wondering what her lot would have been had her pulses fluttered to his footsteps as they came and went. She would have known remorseless waitings and long agony or jealous nights--all the passionate self-tor- ture that she had missed-that she had missed, thank God She made the best of her life today, as she would have made the best of blows and bruises She had insist ed strenuously upon her own happiness, and she had found it not in the great things of life, but in tie little ones, She was happy because happiness is ours in the cradle, or not at all-because it is of the blood, and not of the environment"
 Who would have expected so much philosophy in so young a head?
 There is no extravaganza in the work; there is no undue stimulation of the read CTS interest The author writes of people and places and affairs that are familiar and thoroughly known to her All these she treats with a broadness of conception and a virility of handling that prove her genius and her ability to execute what she conceives The style is easy and un- constrained; the diction exceptionally good, and her descriptive powers, as might have been expected, are all that the most ex- acting reader could ask. The construction of the story is we'll executed. The book is not one to read in fever of excitement when, perchance, one desires diversion and a constant stimulation of the attention by the occurrence of interesting incidents. Rather is it book to read slowly and thoughtfully. When one has the uninter- rupted leisure to enjoy each happy turn of a phrase, each bit of philosophical reflection for there are many; the diosyncracies of each character for they are individual and distinct: and above all the story and destiny of Eugenia and Nicholas as DOT trayed in the analysis and life of each. Thus read it constantly claims the atten- ton and holds out to the reader new beauties of thought on each successive page PAUL PRY.

COVERED WITH SORES,

they would gladly have chosen for their sovereign A son of Louis Philippe, but the English forced them to accept TOT thelr ruler Prince Leopold of Saxe-Coburg-Go- tha who had married the daughter ol George ".
 Tn the early 4Os Thiers, then premier, saw an opportunity of gaining for France the long-coveted ascendency in the orient by encouraging Ibrahim Pasha's attempt to dethrone the Ottoman sultan ana U, substitute Mehemet Ali as commander ol the faithful. Already had lbrahlm con ouered Syria and a part of Anatolla, Wheii England interposed, compelled nm to re tire to Egype and brought to naught 'he French designs.
 Once more it was clear to every intelligent Frenchman in the CO.'S as it was to Ma poleon IT., that their expedition against Mexico and the establishment there or an empire under Maximilian would end in a fiasco if the forces of the union were per- mitted to crush the Southern Confederacy' It was in view of that conviction that Ma poleon III. tried so long and so earnestly 10 persuade the British government to take part in joint intervention. But for Eng lands refusal to cooperate in that plan the Southern Confederacy would probably nave acquired independence MaXim1llan would be still ruling in Mexico and Napoleon Ill., would have been peacefully succeeded by his son. Finally, French talent ana french capital built the Suez canal, and secured a preponderant interest in Egypt, only to see the artificial waterway and the whole of the Nile valley pass under British control.
 stt
 In the eyes of an educated Frenchman his English neighbors, who under the Plantagenets strove for hundred years to conquer his country and efface his na- tionalty, have never since relaxed their all Jata 1ina hopes France, and 1t is the grim lesson of history that they have always hitherto succeeded. Under the circumstances Frenchmen would be scarcely human if they could look at England without any trace of vindictiVe- ness or of antipathy.

Point of View

From the Chicago Record The farm boy gazed on the gray cashier, And thought, as entranced, he fingered
 near:
 Land. would that I that job could hold To stand all day and just count gold" The gray cashier, from his dull employ, Viewed the tan-brown cheeks of the awk-
