The amount of novel reading that is
going on in this country today is some
thing astonishing, and the vogue of fic.
ton seems to be steadily increasing.
The publishers are catering to it, as
they might naturally be expected to.
They have their glasses constantly and
anxiously leveled on the literary hori-
zon to discover new authors and new
themes, as well as new works by the
established writer's. The public's de-
mand for fiction seems to be Unsuitable.
Sometimes it is discriminating and
sometime not but it devours this class
of reading with an appetite that ap-
pears to increase by what it feeds on.
The more novels it reads, the more 1t
wants to read.

Interesting Notes.

Japan has no music and the first
melodies many of the race ever heard
aside from that Of the birds, were
hymns sung by Christian missionaries.
Notwithstanding this many Japanese
have of late years become expert musi-
clans and charming vocalists.
M. Col of Paris has discovered that
substance similar to rubber may be
obtained from the Japanese spindle
tree. The announcement was made to
the Acadamie des Sciences.
A picture by Sir Henry Raeburn, rep
resenting young boy in white shirt

in 1883 $1,533.
At the end of the present year the
office of councilman in New York will
be abolished and the title councilman
will case to be an official designation.
New York had for many years common
councilmen made up of aldermen and
assistant aldermen.
One of the proposed amendments to
the Alabama constitution establishes
the office of lieutenant governor. In
many southern states the president of
the senate is the governors successor
in case of death or resignation; in some
western states the duties of the leu
tenant governor cease when the legis-
lature adjourns.
For continuous beer drinking, so to
speak, Egyp holds the record among
nations. In Egypt beer has been drunk
for 5000 years, and the "busa" of the
fellahs of today is made by process
almost identical with that described
by Herodotos, mentioned in hiero
glyphs and depicted in sculpture as old
as 5000 b. G.
Paris leads the world in dressmaking.
1t is estimated that there are 75.0OC
persons employed in the dressmaking

gagged in the struggle to satisfy wom-

Frank Stelzmiller, the driver OF an
express wagon in Denver, began the
practice about two years ago of plac-
ing mats under the feet of his horses
when they stood. He was actuated by

A railroad man who works in one of
the switch towers on the line to Allan
tic City, surrounded by mosquito in
tested swamp, has plan of his own for
keeping them out of the tower. He
makes ball of newspapers and soaks
it in oil just enough so that it will not
drip. He hangs this midway between
two windows and keeps it swinging all
the time He says that no matter how
thick the mosquitoes may be they new
er care to pass It.

OF course, it is easy to philosophize
on thing of this kind. 1t is easy to
say that the people ought to read some
thing of a solder character, something
more instructive and improving. At
the same time the defenders of the
novel will retort that good novel is
instructive as well as entertaining.
They will also say that when people
are tired with their daily tasks, novel
is restful and useful. much more so
than works of a heavier character.

' AS a rule it does little good to phil
osOphize upon such things. In matters
of this kind people as a rule do simply
what they want to do, and they want to
do what they most enjoy doing. If they
want novels, therefore, the best thing
reformers can do is not to harp on the
point that there are better books than
novels, but to help give the people the
best novels that can be obtained, and
encourage them to read such.

The CLOSING
Was Strong and Active With Many
Stocks at the Highest.
By Associated Press

BY Associated Press.
New York, July 25.-There was an
upward reaction in stock this morn
ing. Professional traders in buying
helped to advance prices. Bltumin-
Gus coal carriers, the anthracite
group and some southern roads were
prominent in the leadership of this
movement and helped hold the dull
market firm throughout the middle
portion of the session. The an
nouncement of an engagement at the
assay Office of $5O0,OOO in gold sent
prices downward again, but not to
the lowest
The market became so nearly stag
nant at the decline that the courage
of the bulls revived and they marked
up prices again. A sudden advance
of about 2 points each in U. s. steel
stocks and an earlier advance of as
much in Amalgamated Copper help
ed to make the closing strong and ac-
tive, with many stocks back to top
level of the day. There was consid-
cradle manipulation on the advance
the principal part of which was re-
stricted to a small circle.
Railroad bonds were active with a
very large demand for bonds ex-
changeable for Burlington stock and
some buying also of B. e o. convert
ible bonds. The market was gen
orally somewhat irregular and U. S.
bonds are unchanged.
