UncOmmerciaI Liszt.

Artistic folk frequently have some
what vague notions about business.
Some Of them are quite ignorant OF it,
others utterly Indifferent to it and 9TH
ers yet hate the very name of it. One
in the last named category was List.
He had returned from successful
tour, and Princess Metternich, the wife
of the celebrated statesman and diplo-
matist, was questioning him regarding
the concerts he had been giving abroad.
81 hear" she said. that you did good
business in Paris"
To which List gave the tart reply:
II only played some music there. Bust
ness-that l leave to bankers and di-
plomatists."
To another lady the musical cleric
gave a still more sarcastic answer.
"Ah, Able" she sighed. what great
fortune you would make if only you
could be induced to go to America to
play"
Madame" returned List, eff you
stood in need of that fortune, believe
me, l would go at once" Golfers

The flashing brilliancy Of Hugo's YER
sitication blinded many spectators for
n brief season and prevented most of
them from seeing what was made
plain at last by an analysis Of the
plays in prose, Mary Tudor, for exam
pie. When no gorgeously embroidered
garment draped the meager skeleton, it
was not difficult to discover that Victor
Hugo was not q great dramatic poet
''of the race and lineage of Shake
all question. perhaps the greatest poet
Of the century, but his gift was lyric
and not dramatic. He was lyrist Of
Incompatible vigor, variety and sono-
rity, and rs a lyric he had often an al
most epic amplitude Of vision. AS a
dramatist his outlook was narrow and
petty. He could not conceive boldly a
lofty theme, treating it with the I'M
failing simplicity of the masters. His
subjects were lacking in nobility, in
dignity, in stateliness. His plots were
violent and extravagant, and his char
acters were as forced as his situat tons.
The poetry to be found in his plays is
external rather than internal. 1t is al
most an afterthought. Under the Tyr
ical drapery which is so deceptive at
first there is no more than a melO-
drama.-Brander Matthews in Allan

GOunOd the Man.

Gounod was one Of the most fasci-
mating men l have ever met. His man
ner had a charm that was irresistible,
and his kindly eyes, as soft and melt
ing as a woman's, would light up with
a smile now tender, now humorous,
that fixed itself ineffaceably upon the
memory. He could speak English fair
~ we'll, but preferred his own Ian
guage, in which he was brilliant con-
versationalist, and he could use to ad-
vantage fund of keen, ready wit. He
was at this time Influenced by a re-
crudescence Of that religious mysticism
which had strongly characterized his
youthful career, but his tone, though
earnest and thoughtful when he was
dwelling upon his art, could brighten
up with the lightness and gayety Of a
true Parisian.-Hermann Klein in Cen.

The Eye of the East.

Damascus, perhaps the most ancient
city in the world, claims the proud title
of ''the Eye of the East" which the
striking beauty Of it's aspect from dis
lance fully justities.
Bright buildings which sparkle I'M
der the Syrian sun rise out of a mass
of many tinted foliage. To the north
west stretch the long, bare, snow white
ridges of Anti-Lebanon, while in
charming contrast gardens, rich corn
fields and teeming orchards form a
brilliant setting on all sides.
Winding through this profuse display
Of oriental beauty, the rivers Barrada
and Phege-the ALBANIA and Pharpar Of
Scripture-lose themselves far to the
east in Lake Bahr-el-Merj. On near
er view much of this glamour van
ishes, and there is abundant evidence
Of general decay.
A similar title is given to Athens in
Millions paradise Regained." It is:
Athens, the eye of Greece, mother of arts.
