Calendars And Poetic Fire.

From time to time, a man who
writes things for the current prints
especially the weekly magazines
which make a specially Of comment
and criticism on literary matters
thinks it is his duty to discover
something which may show that he
is very modern-quite the opposite
to an antediluvian fossil.
Such a nan in such a mood was
he who lately in the Literary Digest
stated that all art, to prove endur-
ing must be tased or the contemror-
airy life of any land in which it sees
the light: that poetry, for instance,
cannot gain respect and admira-
ton if it lack such a national and
present-day basis.
Surely. this statement must have
been written for some other purpose
than mere truth or art; because,
unless the writer be the versiest tyro.
he is sure to know that it is quite
untenable. Is Goethe's Faust of
any age or land? Is Shakespeare's
Hamlet grounded on "contempor-
aneous national life?' Is u own
poets lyric masterpiece, "Annabel
Lee a poem "of the PRESENT." No,
indeed! And yet the three have
gained beyond a doubt-and held
for many years-the true respect
and admiration" of all reading folk.
The Literary Digest writer's phase
seems too absurd for contravention.
But the very contrary of what he
saws NAV be laid down with justice

LAYING Good Foundations.

steadily with his work, moving in

same results and doing just precise
ly the quality and quantity of work
that he has always done, but let a
little new blood be infused into his
task, a few new ideas be introduced
into it's management. and he will
probably find it such uphill work
to keep pace with modern methods
that he will be far outstripped and
felt behind to his narrow, %roped-in,
unprogressive existence. An article
in the current number of Success

1t Is hard to convince some people

They lay their bad feelings to almost
