Value of Tears.

Prom the London Mail
DR.. Romme. the well-known French
medical authority. speaks eloquently OF
the usefulness OF tears. in the current
Issue OF La Revue. Tears, he writes,
are most useful in cases OF great de-
preston or deep sorrow. Crying creates
kind of cerebral torpor a mental in
difference, which acts as an anaesthetic.
one browns sorrow In tears better even
than in alcohol I'VE should never re-
strain our tears. They form, especially
with children, a safety valve, which does
nothing less than preserve the balance

Literary Censorship.

Because at certain times there have
been novels Of evil tendency that have
attained wide publicity and a large cir
culation, there has often been more or
less talk of the necessity Of some sort
Of literary censorship. But where this
sort OF guardianship OF the literary
morals Of a people is attempted there
has always been so many ridiculous mis-
takes and puritanical foolishness that
It is not likely that a people doing their
own thinking will willingly submit to
such an Imposition.
There has never been literary CEN
sorship that did not make absurd mis-
takes. and the most recent, as Il is one
Of the most glaring, Is that OF the edu-
cation committee OF the London county
council, which has Just reported on a list
Of books which they deem UNIT for read
ms by the general public, and which are.
therefore. barred from the public libra
ries Of London, OF which this committee
has charge.
Imagine. literary lovers. an index ex-
purgatorius which contains the follow
ing. frowned upon by the literary censors
Of London: Adam Bede" ''Barchester
Towers" The Caxtons." Charles
O'Malley," The Cloister and the
Hearth" "Coningsby." Woodstock. ''
Jane Eyre" John Inglesant," Pride
and Prejudice Vanity Fair" THE
Woman in White" and Don Quixote. "
Here we have some Of the great authors
Of the world; Cervantes. Jane Austen.
Thackeray, Charles Reade. Anthony
Trollope. Lever. Disraeu. and Walter
Scott
This list serves TO show how far preju-
dice can go; and with this sort Of warn
ing staring US in the face. as to the
lengths to which literary censorship may
be carried. ii is pretty certain that. even
with the unsavory memory Of certain re-
cent novels in mind. we. as a people.
will rather bear the Ills we have than
fly to others that we know not Of"
