A Darinu Critic.

Among rash literary critics, says tue Argonaut, we may now number Fred. eric Harrison. In his Among My Books" we find a confession that "l care for Plato and metaphysics as lit. tie as I care for the rhapsodiral gam mon of Professor BergsOu or Miss Marie CorelH." Goldsmith, We are told, was "a poor creature. and so were Sterne and Lamb and De Quincey.' Farther on we are told that nature has denied Meredith an ear for music or verse" and that "all he had to say in poetry could have been more truly said in verse" Svluburne's verse he describes as a "tarantula of allitera. ton, assonance, cousonance and art ful cOncatenatiol of sounds"

On the Rack.

The expression putting a witness on the rack" has an ancient origin. The courts had an unpleasant way of put. ting a refractory or unsatisfactory wit. ness on the rack, which was an open wooden frame. upoI which was luid the victim. His wrists and ankles were tied to two rollers at opposite ends of the frame. The rollers were then moved with levers until the ten sion caused the body to rise level with the frame. and then questions were addressed to the witness. If he still proved silent OF if his memory needed refreshing. the rollers were moved slow ly until the wretch's bones started from the sockets
