The Northern Novelists.
From the Westminster Gazette.

The younger among the northern realis-
tic novel writer's taught In the schools
of France have learned their lessons not
wisely. but too well. They have swamped
the bookstalls of northern Europe with
material which is nothing IL not piquant,
but which has taught the average reader
to abstain from purchasing any volume
the authors name Of which is not some
guarantee for the tone and tendency of a
work But, strange to say, the younger
and young authors who model their sto-
ries on the work of the extremists in the
French naturalist and impressionist
schools have not realized one important
fact which is patent to all readers who
are able to compare modern French now
els with those written In other languages
They make no allowance for the differ
ence OF language. and forget or ignore
that things which may be said In France
without greatly offending are coarse and
revolving In an idiom lacking the subtle
grace that suggests an atmosphere OF
apologize persiflage In the most risQue
French story. This defect Is apparent
even In works Of German writers. though
the wealth of the German language miti-
gates the evil to some extent When q
Scandinavian tongue Is used the result Ia
still worse.

Trade on the Great Lakes,

From the New Orleans Picayune
II the American flag is but seldom seen on
the ocean 1t is very much In evidence on the
great lakes. During the entire period Of
open navigation the chain of inland seas
along our northern border bears a COM
merce which rivals In volume the vast ton
mage handled by the railroads of the coun-
try and which throws into insignificance
all the balance of our water borne COM
merce. This enormous traffic on the lakes
should encourage the river interests to look
for an eventful revival of the steamboat
traffic. The secret of success on the great
lakes has been the construction of the
most economical type OF vessel, namely. the
greatest possible cargo-carrying capacity
coupled with the minimum of operating ex-
penses. Similar causes should produce SIM
liar effects on the trade OF our great west
ern rivers.
