The Secret Of Dickens.

In passing word upon new life
oe Dickens by Percy Fitzgerald, who
'knew Dickens as Boz, Herbert Paul
quotes as follows:
Kissing, embracing. hugging figure
largely in Boz's writings. 1t was quite
common and legitimate In those early
Victorian days. particularly among the
middle classes. The amount OF kissing in
Pickwtck Is enormous; quite as much as
drinking. Boz, however, forgot for the
moment that 1t was hardly so habitual
in the upper classes Thus when Mr..
sparkler was counting Fanny Dorrit his
demeanor to Little Dorrit became patent.
Sometimes when she was in the outer cir
cles of assemblies she would find herself
stealthily supported round her waist by
Mr.. Sparkler's arm. This would not bo
tolerated in a fashionable assembly, Tho
host would probably invite the guest to
retire.
Letting this passage suffice as SAM
pie of the biographer's work, Mr.. Paul
In the London Speaker offers some
hints as to the secret of Dickens power
with the reader and the undated pop,
ularity Of his writings thirty-fve years
after his death. Speaking for his own
countrymen, Mr.. Paul declares that the
attraction in Dickens is the hulnor,
and he doubts whether there are many
educated Englishmen or uneducated
either who do not wish that they knew
all the humorous passages in Dickens
by heart.
There are two great and conspicuous
limits to the humor Of Dickens, says
this writer. ut is never indecent and
never profane, and it is always whole
some" To quote further:
II we only knew Dickens by his pathos
we should say that he had no humor at
all; perhaps that he was unusually desti-
tute of it. Had the two elements COM
mingled he might have been another
Shakespeare. AS it Is he lives by his
hunor, II not by his humor alone.
Incidentally Mr.. Paul echoes Andrew
Lang's defense Of Dickens against the
assertion by critics that he could not
draw gentleman" by citing Joe
Gargery, the blacksmith in "Great Ex-
pectations," who, Though uncouth in
manners and ungainly in appearance,
was one Of natures gentlemen"

benign rains that Fergus county is
one mammoth garden and that never
in its history has the prospect been
SO promising for bountiful harvest
Already the grass is knee deep and
the ranges are carpeted in green. The
storms did some damage during the
lambing season. but, on the whole, the
residents are away ahead on the bad
weather.
Mr.. Taillon says that Kendall resi-.
dents are much interested in the re-
cent transfer of the Barnes-King mine.
The mine was recently purchased by
New York and Boston capitalists. who
propose 70 work it on a much larger
scale. The stockholders are also
Amalgamated stockholders, but he be
lieves the venture is an individual en-
terprise.
There is most general regret in
Fergus county over the death of Oscar
Stephens" said Mr.. Taillon. "Mr
Stephens came to Fergus in 1882 and
grew rich. He was a man who gave
away barrel of money. Every one
went to him in trouble and he gave

piled up. If he had been misery

The Royal Procession.

Long before the king and queen
started for the cathedral every posi-.
Bile inch of standing room on the line
OF march was taken up. and the new
" decorated streets were full of bus
tie and life. Stifsgaarden palace. nat
urally, was one of the principal cen
tiers of interest. as it was the start
ing point of the procession. Crowds
assembled there in immense numbers.
and the first hearty cheer of the day
went up when the king and queen. the
latter looking particularly radiant and
happy, emerged through the palace
gates.
The route of the pageant led through
the Munkasgaarden. which was lined
on both sides with immense throngs
OF spectators. At the head of the pro-
cession marched the lower court and
state functionaries. The king was in
generals uniform and. besides other
decorations, he Wore a plaque of ST
Olaf. The queens dress was magnifi
cent. 1t was of cloth of silver, yelled
with ivory white tulle. 1t finished in
high transparent collar of old lace
edged with silver. The long train Of
the gown, heavily embroidered with
silver, was borne by three maids OF
honor. The procession was nearly an
hour in passing and all along the route
there were manifestations of genuins
enthusiasm on the part of the crowds
