tistic things, no artist could think of
marrying one of them!
1t was not yet too lcte. He would
break off, and she might marry some
man more foolish than he. Then he
thought of Howard Grlggsby She
might, she perhaps would marry How
ard. He started uncomfortably at this
thought. How could he bear to have
her marry Howard? Howard had al
ways gotten the things he desired and
rather looked down on him with con-
tempt. Suppose now he should beat
Howard in the thing Howard most de-
sired, who would have ground for ex-
ultance then? Who could afford to be
contemptuous? Can We despise those
who win what We most desire? Had
he not better marry her after all, If
he could, Literary fame is sweet but
distant, and love is sweet and near.
He did not know what to do. He
puned at his cigarette, but in it was
neither solace nor inspiration. He
flung it in the fire and strobe over to

the poem, Youth and Art" where the
poet tells of the two who had achieved
the fame as sculptor and singer they
desired, but at the price of their love
and happiness. He read and reread

velopment by their marriage. They
had sold their birthright for a mess OF
pottage, nay, for the apples of Sodom
which had turned to ashes on their
lips.
No, he would be true to himself and
to his art. Even Howard might marry

slammed the door and hurried towards
the Murchison residence. He was met
and stopped by Charlie Rawlins who
said, Hello, old boy, which way are
you going?"
ITO the Murchisons," he replied.
That's right" drawled Charlie;

eternal feminine while you can. How

What do you mean?" asked Percy.

Percy Haddock sat loiled back in a
rocking chair, the blue smoke softly
putting and curling from the half con
sumed cigarette, which he held in his
hand
A Loo, of comfort pervaded the room
and the fire threw delicious crimson
light until the air seemed an ethereal
ized--win er-aHd yet he thought he was
unhappy, desperately and lrremediably
unhappy. Two. mighty passions, he
said to himself. tugged at his heart,
the love Of his art and OF course the
love of a woman.
Ever since he could remember he
had purposed to become q great writer.
He mad resolved to devote himself en-
tirely to art. and allow nothing to in
terfere with this conservation He
must observe and know the passions,
but not feel them. To feel passion
would be to be swayed from the atti-
tude of impartiality the artist must
feel to depict life perfectly. OF course.
so consecrated, he must not allow him
self to become entanglcd in the
mcshes of love and matrimony.
But things. as they have provok-
ing way of doing, were about to turn
out differently from what he had pro-
posed He was about to be. or rather
he had been swerved from this per-
feet calm essential to literary exacti-
tude by Miss Kate Murchison. He felt
Inundated at the thought that so
slight a thing as mere girl could
Swerve a man like himself from the
plans of life time. Had 1t been some
noble ambition, some great opportun
ity like that of becoming a great
statesman, whose plans could change
the map of the world aad alter the
course OF history the humiliation
would not have been so great, nor the
wound to his vanity SO profound.
But alas! He was undeniably in
love in love, like any other ordinary
mortal who had no dream of literary
greatness and no higher conception of
life than that of having a good time.
Not only was he, the seeker after
literary Immortality in love, but he
had to acknowledge that he actually
enjoyed the sensation and at times
questioned whether he would derive
greater delight from winning kiss
from the girl than he would from
achieving applause from sonnet. He
knew this was lapse from his higher
nature, but he either could not or
would not help it,
And yet he had been warned.
Charlie Rawlins, his best friend, had
said to him, Look here, Perse, you
are putting in lot of time with Kate
Murchison. and the first thing you
know it will be love and a cottage and
goodbye to conservation to art and
the ideal.
He replied. smiling the superior
smile of the fatuous and complacent,
Don't concern yourself, | am simply
studying 'das ewige weibliche,' and
getting material for a masterpiece"
"Ah. see,' said Charlie. You have
revised P0pe's lines:
80 Be woman's ways your study and de-
light,
See her by day and dream of her by
night,
And then the sale of books that you
may write
VIII simply be, my boy, far out of
sight,"
Accordingly he pursued his studies
very ardently and found them more
and more pleasant as the days went
by. He derived an added if ignoble
Joy from the worry this course of
study seemed TO give one Howard

Nature of Igneous Rocks.


The igneous rocks come first because they
have been the originals. By igneous rocks
We mean those that have been thoroughly
fused or melted, like lavas, porphyries. etc
The heat need not have been dry heat
like that Of a furnace, but an adueo-igne-
Gus, or fire and water. or steam heat: suf-
ncient in some cases to reduce them to a
pasty condition; in others, like volcanic
lavas, to fluid one. Even laVas pouring
from Nesuvius show evidence OF an aque-
GUS as well as of an igneous condition for
they give off volumes of steam Metamor-
phfc rocks are those that have been altered
by heat "in place." to a semi-plastic confi-
Ton. like some GRANTEES, or simply recrys-
tallized like marbles, or only partially crvs-
tallized like quartzites.
The lSnCous rocks are the originals from
which all others have been directly or in
directly derived. Examine any one of The
thousands of feet of sandstone that UNDER
lie our prairies and build up our foothills
and you will find them either composed of
large or small fragments of granite or Of
crystalline grains derived from the con-
stituent minerals OF granite viz Quartz
and feldspar, or else from similar material
derived from igneous lavas. Limestone Is
almost the only exception, being an organ-
ically formed rock, yet il we were 10 go
back into the ultimate origin and history
OF limestone, We might find that even the
lime utilized by the corals and other organ-
isms was derived from the material Of
some igheous rocks. We Were a fireborn
world before We became born again in part
by water.

A Spiny Monster.
From the Westminster Gazette.

For sheer ferocity of appearance unre-
deemed by any milder facial attributes. a
lizard, called after "Moloch horrid king"
Moloch horridus. is pre-eminent among rep
tiles. The body is so covered with spines
that, as it has been put, nature seems to
have endeavored to ascertain how many
spines could be inserted on a given area.
But anlike Its tutelary deity, who seems
really to have spelt himself Molech, the
lizard does not demand the blood of chill
dren. 1t is, indeed, vegetarian, and only
fiery in that il has curious faculty of alb
sorbing and drying up water. A specimen
placed in shallow dish was observed to
attract the water like a piece of blotting
paper. Three specimens have recently ar
rived al the geological gardens from Aus
tralia, where the creature lives.

FLOWERS OF THE GREAT.
King Edward Prefers Violet, Salisbury
the Yellow Carnation.
From Stray Stories.

rom stray stories.
King Edwards favorite flower is the vio-
let, closely followed by the auricula-the
latter being an especial favorite for button
hole purposes. The wildfowers Of the Eng
lish woods-uotably the primrose and blue
bell-are dearest to the heart Of Queen
Alexandra, and she has also a great fond
ness for carnations. Her pet aversions in
the floral world are the tuberose and gar
denia, the strong. sickly smell Of whose
blossoms is distasteful to her.
Lord Salisbury's floral favorite is not the
primrose, but the yellow carnation He
however divides his affection between this
flower and the rhododendron, and one of
the finest collections of this Towering
shrub in the country is to be found at Hat
field.
Mr.. Chamberlain and his orchids are, OF
course. household words, but Sir William
Harcourt has gardening tastes as far rel
moved from those of the colonial secretary
as are his political views. His weakness
is for anemones and other Alpine plants, in
the culture of which he is unusually inter-
ested.
Although contrary to politics, Lord Rose
bery's flower is the primrose He shares
his favor between that and the lafrance
variety of rose. These two together gives
his lordship's racing colors-rose and prim-
rose-and are much In evidence wherever
he may happen to be.
II ever one man loved one flower that
man is the dean Of Rochester s. Reynolds
Hole, and his hearts delight is the rose
He has grown hundreds of different varie-
ties, and written whole books about them
yet is always discovering something new
Miss Ellen Terry is in hove with the vio-
let, but also finds place in her heart for
the white variety Of carnation which was
named after her. The carnatfon indeed
seems TO have ousted the rose from pride
OF place. for among other celebrities who
confess 10 placing it first floral favorite are
the Princess OF Wales. the Duchess of Fife,
Queen Wtlhelmina of Holland and tho
Queen of Romania-
The Duke of Westminster is faithful TO
the rose, and SO is Earl Beauchamp, while
the same flower was also the favorfte of
Mr.. Cecil Rhodes. Lord Charles Beres-
ford's favorite flower is unique In re-
sponse to a query on the subject he vouch-
safed a reply of one word-"caulifower
