swinburne,s Estimate of King Lear

VI mig
'If nothing were left of Shakespeare
but the single tragedy of King Lear !"
wrote Algernon Charles Swinburne in
Harper's, sit would still be as plain as
it is now that he was the greatest man
that ever lived. AS poet the author Of
this play can only be compared with
AIschylus. The Hebrew prophets and
the creator of Job are sometimes as
sublime in imagination and in passion,
but always quite incomparably inferior
in imaginative intelligence.
''That Shakespeare's judgment was
as great and almost as wonderful as
his genius has been q commonplace of
criticism ever since the days of Cole
ridge, questionable only by such dirty
and dwarfish creatures of simian intel
lect and facetious idiocy as mistake it
for q sign of wit instead of dizziness
and of distinction instead of degreda-
ton to deny the sun in heaven and af-
firm the fragrance Of sewer"

HindOO Women.

Hindoo women are very beautiful,
and, like most other women, they like
to set off their charms by the wearing
of jewels. Those Of the rich are often
exceedingly valuable, and any amount
of them are worn. A Hindoo lady
wears a large nose ring, number of
rings in her ears, bangles galore OH her
wrists and arms, anklets Of silver or
gold and ring on every toe. These or
naments are very becoming to her dark
beauty, and naturally they are great
source of pleasure, but unfortunately
one which, together with the wearing
of colors, is denied to widows, whose
lot is a particularly hard one.
Anyhow q Hindoo woman has not
particularly cheerful life, for as she
must never look upon the face of any
man but her husband it Is spent entire
ly in her heme, which, even If she be
rich, is not in the least pretty. The
rooms are small and dingy, have bare
walls, very little furniture, and their
only outlook is upon the interior court
yard. which Is not made bright and
pretty, but is usually without a vestige
Of.tree or flower.

Keep Accounts.

Keeping accounts, simple in form,
plain, clear and easily understood,
showing amounts due to or from 9TH
ers, entering correctly the dates on
which money is paid out or received, is
the best plan to avoid disputes about
money matters and relieves the memo
ry of many unnecessary burdens. A
written record of money transaction
has greater legal value in case of con-
troversy in court than any verbal state
ment.
The habit of keeping accounts in
duces economy in expenditure and in
spires the habit Of saving up, besides
showing at all times correct financial
condition. Housekeepers, mechanics
and all who handle money in the man.
agement of their personal affairs will
find it most profitable to form the hab-

fourth day of the fever. 1t is first seen
on the forehead, face and neck, after
ward over the whole body. 1t consists

spreads over the body In smallpox an
eruption is seen on the third or fourth
day on the face neck and wrists. In

rarely shows itself before the seventh
day of the foyer. The spots are rose
colored, and they disappear on pressure.

MRS. GRANT is DEAD.
Wife of the President Taken Away by
Heart Failure.

Washington, Dec. 15.-Mrs. u. s..
Grant, wife of President Grant, died
at her residence in this city at 11:17
o'clock Sunday night. Death was due

Your husbands Crnvats.

To the woman who must buy her
husbands cravats want to say a word
by way of advice-don't do 1t, says a
writer in the Haberdasher. If you
really must buy your husbands era
watts, do not try to get cravat so warm
that it will feel like mustard plaster
on his chest. That might be good for
his bronchial tubes, but it might en-
danger his chances of ultimate redemp-
ton. 1t would perhaps stave off throat
trouble, but it would be apt to produce
family trouble, which is a good deal
worse.
Let him pick out his own cravats,
and then he alone will be to blame for
them. He may not know much about
the harmony of colors, but he is not
likely, nevertheless, to pick out a era
vat that will hurt the eyes of the spec
tators like limelight at champion
ship glove contest. He may not know
what he wants, but he knows what he
does not want, and ten to one, if you
have seen something at the cravat
counter that you think is perfectly love-
ly, that is it.

tezIin One of the Clennest and Bess
Kept Cities In Europe.

According to consular reports, Ber-
lin, although busy manufacturing
city, is one of the cleanest and best
kept in Europe. The smokeless condi-
ton of the Berlin atmosphere is as
cribed to three facts-the preponderant
use of coke and brquCttes, which are
practically smokeless; the skillful sci,
entiiic construction of boiler furnaces
and ehimneys and, finally, the high
standard of skill that is taught ana
enforced among firemen who stoke fur
naces with coal for steam and manu-
featuring purposes. Before a man can
assume such charge he must be
taught the theory and practice Of eco
nomical. scientific firing, by which the
coal Is distributed In such q manner
and quantity over the CRATE surface as
to secure the most perfect combustion
Of its volatile elements The Siesian
coal used in Berlin in most large steam
plants and factories Is rich in bitumen,
but would rank below many of the
bituminous Goals of the United States,
md yet the long, dense, trailing clouds
of smoke from mill and factory chin
neys which are so familiar q sight to
many American cities are rarely seen
In that section of Germany, where the
indiscriminate shoveling of raw btu
minous coal into the steam and other
furnaces is considered an ignorant and
wasteful proceeding.
