has had them that they will soon ex-
haust all the material here. Mr..
Clarence Mendenhall, our chief of po-
lice, is laid off for repairs on account of
vaccination. Mr.. Geo. N. Mccall is

of very valuable land from MIR. I. T.
Faires. 1t is timbered land, lies we'll
and fronts on Faires street. This is a
road, on which are nice building lots.
They will doubtless make some great
improvements on this property in the
future. .Ona and Louise, two sweet
little children Of Mr.. and Mrs. w. T.
Beamguard, were playing in the wood
yard one day last week; Louise having
an axe in her hand. No one saw it
and the children can't tell exactly how
it happened; but she came down on
Ona's right hand, blade foremost, and
sunk the blade clear through it be-
tween the first and second finger and
cutting the index finger clear off at
the second joint. DR.. ]. w. Campbell

for suspecting that the latest tendency Of Brit
ish fiction is a sign of weakness
Our nOvestS have. as 1T seems to us, but little
sense of FORM They cannot grapple with a sub
ject and get out Of 1t the things that are essen
ttal If they are to give all that should be given
they must give much that ought to be left out.
1t would be invidious to select any particular
book as an example. but it is fact that few
of the long novels that have been praised have
been quite free from this reproach. Sometimes
the story is, to speak, set in frame, and to
the critic that frame seems altogether unneces-
sary. Sometimes chapter after chapter is
wasted In the exposition Of those preliminares
which, in the case Of play. would be condensed
into the list of dramatis PERSONA and the open
ing stage directions to the first act In
particular instance the tale ends. but the author
is unaware OF the fact and goes on to write an
other sixty pages. We do not complain. but it
has been shown by writers Of other nationalities
notably by Tourgenev-that novel may be
complicated in action, its characters numerous
and well individualized, and that the book may
yet remain comparatively short. 1t is all a mat
ter Of the sense Of form, and that the British do
not possess this is proved by the rarity OF the
occasions which meets with short
story worthy OF the name.

LOVEY-DOFEY.

From The London Academy.
Doves are, of course, introduced in connection
with most Of the alluSiOnS to Venus. Thus
William Morris:
For Ger the daIs Venus fair
Fluttered about by many a dove
Makes hopeless men for hopeless love
Both sick and sorry.
Swinburne tells rs that Queen Venus's raiment
was painted with Red mouths of maidens, and
red feet of doves No doubt the classical con-
ception aninates Coventry Patmore's tortuous
quatrain:
Love kiss'd by Wisdom wakes twice Love.
And Wisdom is through loving wise
Let Dove and Snake, and Snake and Dove
This Wisdoms be, that Loves Device.
But the dove Is not only used to personify
Love her attendants; it stands constantly in
poetry as symbol of the one loved. And at
this point we seem to reach a juxtaposition
originally Of convenience. which has however
made good its association of ideas. We read in
The Sonnets from the Portuguese:
Alas have grieved, so 1 am hard to love
Yet love me-wilt thou? open thy heart wide
And fold within the wet wings Of thy dove
Endymion says to Peona:
Trembling its closed eyes and sleeked wings
About me-
Then there Is the poor child in "In Memoriam"
waiting for her love:
Oh somewhere. meek. unconscious dove
That sittest ranging golden hair
Nor must forget Mr.. Francis Thompson's S
description of a lady
whose form is a grove
Hush'd with the cooling of an unseen dove
1t is impossible even briefly to indicate all the
allusions there are in connection with human
love, to the purity of the dove, to the mildness
of the dove, the .livelier iris that changes
on the burnish'd dove So universal had this
association of ideas become that Shakespeare
satirizes the excessive use of this sweet foy
of the dove in these lines of Thisbe's:
Asleep, my love?-
What, dead, my dove?
and their influence has not been strong enough
to prevent Mr.. William Watson from writing:
Hand within hand. my love,
Heart within heart, my dove

THE LONG NOVEL RETURNING.

From The London Morning Post.
1t is not surprising to note that the long novel
Is once again coming into vogue. Most of the
works of fiction published Of late which have
seemed to deserve praise have been rather over
than below one hunated and fifty thousa nd
words in length, and of them have con
put 1t in a less technical way. It bepin q
TO be common experience for the CON
scientious reviewer to be confronted by a
book OF hve or SIX hundred closely printed
in a column at the outside. We hear moreover
OF other books that are to come which are of
similar dimensions We have heard one novelist
people and to devote to each year in their his
tory volume Of this length which it would
take him two years to produce. One is glad Tn

When Mr.. Putnam was tie head OF

After a few minutes talk with the
politician Mr.. Putnam asked him
whether he had ever been through all
The departments Of the institution.
II never have, but I'd lik1 to see it,"
replied the politician.
ut will give me much pleasure co go
with you" said Mr.. Putnam.
Mr.. Putnam took him behind the
counters and through the building
from top to bottom, eXpiainins the
character and the magnitude OF the
work in detail. He farther pointed out.
without seeming to do so. the varied
duties of the employees and the attain
mentS they must possess to do the
work. When the tour was ended, Mr..
Putnam said:
I'm pleased to have had a chance
to show the library to you, aid if your
friend viii fiji out an application blank

sary examination. / tlI.pk there will
be no difficulty in placing his name on

enough of library WORK. to convince
him that his constituent could find no
