NJVEL— READING.

0110': Time Might Frequently Better by
Spout in Sleep.

Novels form the largest part of the
book manuscripts received by publish-
ing houses, says the Philadelphia Times.
Out of 100 manuscripts received during
a recent fortnight by a prominent pub—
lishing firm 62 were novels. In another
case 51 out of 100 manuscripts submit-
ted during three weeks were novels.
Sometimes the percentage of novels will
reach as high as 75; and the assortment
of volumes is so large that hundreds of
them enjoy but a very limited circula-
tion, many a so-called popular writer
netting not over $25 or 850 for wear of
brain and pen.

It is somewhat singular that in an age
when the demand for solid facts and
profitable truths is very large there
should be such a market for books which
are known to be based on the author’s
imagination; the only feasible explana-
tion of this phenomenon may be found
in the statement that the most telling
hits are made through the medium of
fictitious narrative; a. well designed and
adroitly planned novel, teeming with
sharp points, radiant with advantageous
suggestions and rich in nuggets of com-
mon sense, is one of the most potent
methods of driving truths home into
hearts which might otherwise enjoy
slight rations of this kind of diet; with
some patients mental stimulants must
be well sugared to render them palat-
able.

But a most unhealthy d"? -:-t " s one which
is all sweets and no nutrinzent; and the
spending of hours in the reading of nov-
el trash, hurriedly devouring a cheap
story for the more sake of finding “how
it comes out.” is worse than so many
hours of dead sleep; and the r:.~<-reatio::
has not the slightest exc use unless it be
that thereij the reader is kept out of
mischief or a still more harmful waste
of time—Clinton Item.

CRYANT’S MARRIAGE.

It “’35 an Ideal Union Between the Poet
and His \Vife.

Allusion has already been made to his
marriage. None could have been hap-
pier, no union more nearly an ideal one.
Miss Fanny Fairchild was a young lady
whose parents lived on the Seekonk, a
steam tributary to the Green River, not
far from Great Barrington.

Early left an orphan, she made her
home alternately with her married sis—
ters in that place, and it was there that
Bryant met her. Charming in person,
sweet 'in disposition, lovely in character,
she drew him to her through his sympa-
thy with her orphanage. his, admiration
of her beauty, and his appreciation of
her worth.

For 45 years she was the stay and
blessing of his life. What that marriage
was to him they know best who knew
him best. Reserved on the subject to
the world at large, he allowed only those
who were nearest him to know the won-
derful depth and tenderness of his af-
fection. Their sympathy was perfect,
their dependence mutual.

He said at her death:

“I never wrote a. poem that I did not
repeat it to her and take her judgment
upon it. I found its success with the
public to be precisely in proportion to
the impression it made upon her.”

A dear friend of them both has said:

“The union between Mr. and Mrs.
Bryant was a poem of the tenderest
rhythm. Any of us who remember Mr.
Bryant‘s voice when he said ‘Frances’
will join in his hope that she kept the
some beloved name in heaven. I re-

 

member alludingto those exquisite lines
'The Future Life,’ to Mrs. Bryant, and
her replying:

“ ‘Oh. my dear, I am always very sor-

ry for any one who sees me after read-
; i:i._:: those lines, they must be so disap-
painted]
; "Beatrice and Laura have not re-
:telved such tributes from their poets.
for Mrs. Bryant‘s husband was her poet
an] lover at seventy and seventeen.”—
Century.

A Compv ~miso.

Prosecuting Attorney John T. Dare
and opposing counsel exchanged a few
hot words yesterday morning.

"Mr. Dare, sit down,” ofl'n'ed Judge
Joachimsen. ‘

“Your honor, I prefer to attend to my
duties on my feet, as a. respectful at—
torney should.“ replied Dare.

“Mr. Dare, sit down!” shouted the
judge. now thoroughly angry, and Mr.
Dare saw that it was necessary to hedge
a little to bolster his blufi.

“‘Your honor, I don’t know why I
should be singled out.” said Dare, “and
I must therefore decline to sit down. I
would, however. obey a. general order
for every one in the court room to be
seated,” he suggested by way of a. com-
promise, though he was the only one in
the court room who was standing.

“Everybody sit down!” roared the
judge, who had been blufiiing himself
and was only too glad to accept the com-
promise. Mr. Dare took his seat respect-
fully and the business of the court pro-
ceeded harmoniously—San Francisco
Post.

No Dondhond Suds this Your.

The usual general distribution of seeds
by the Agricultural Department will
not take place next year. An opinion
was given by Attorney-General Onley
some time ago that as the law provided
for furnishing rare seeds for scientific
purposes, Secretary Morton was not com-
pelled to expend the appropriation made
in distributing common seeds. Secre-
tary Morton has always opposed the
general free seed distribution, which has
become one of the regular duties of the
Agriculnral Department and of Con-
gressmen, and under the authority of
the Attorney-General’s opinion during
this fiscal year he will inaugurate a re-
form and supply no seeds save for scien
titic purposes.

COLONIAL HOUSES. " "'".'

This (std Siqu. Architecture In
Called Aesthetic. -
(Copyright 1895 by the Co-operative Building
Plan Association. N. Y.)

The Chicago Exposition gave a most
decided impetus to all phases of aesthetic
art in this country. More especially has
the influence been felt in everything
that pertains to architecture. Magnifi-
cent as was the array of exhibits show-
ing the material advancement of the
world in these latter days, the general
criticism that has been passed is that
this Exposition is notable above all
others for its mat-chless buildings and
surperb grouping of structures.

The efiortsput forth by the architects
were not alone to give suitable housing
to all the. various articles shown—as was
the case of the Philadelphia Exposition
—but to make the best possible use of
natural advantages an i to harmonize all
into one perfect whole. The result was
well called a “dream city.”

The Dutch style of Colonial architec-
ture gives us a more quaint and pict‘x-
esque appearance, befitting the suburb
or the quiet, rich rural country. Its
broad and airy porches are always in-
viting and there is no sacrifice of com.
fort for showiness.

A brief description of the English Co-
lonial house is as follows: .

Width, 32 feet, 6 inches; depth, includ-
in%portico, 38 ft., 6 in.

eight of stories: Cellar, 7 ft.; first
story, 9 ft., second story, 8 ft.; attic. 8
feet.

Exterior materials: Foundation
stones; first and second stories, clap-
boards; balcony floor covered with can-
vas; deck and extension roofs tin; main
roof shingles.

 

60-0/0: /V
ABC fl/rcc 75 my.

Interior finish: The entrance hall
and living room finished in oak; the
rest of the house hard white plaster—
colored to suit ovvner’s taste; oak floor
in the living room and staircase. Rooms
throughout are trimmed with soft wood
finished in natural colors. An open
timber ceiling in the hall, living room
and dining room, with the dining room
wainscotted, at a cost of about 8500,
would much improve appearance. as
would also finishing the parlor and one
or more of the main room: upstairs in
white enamel and gold. at an aver-
age expense of 8150 a room.

The first floor contains large ball room
and living room thrown in one, 13319x8,
with dining room in the back connected
by sliding doors. On the left. parlor
opening into the hall—sliding doors or
portiere. Kitchen in the back. Open
fireplaces in all these rooms, feeding in-
to two chimneys as shown in the pros-
pective view. Four large rooms with
both on the seconl floor; open fireplaces
in the two front chambers. Two rooms
may be finished off in the attic, or the
attic may be finished ofi handsomely in
hard wood as a. billiard room. Full > set
of plumbing throughout.

In the vicinity of New York this de-
sign, well builtnvithout extravagance in
details, would cost $5,000. Much small-
‘er than this example as illustrated
would not look well, but enlarging the
design enhances its appearance.

Regarded as - a pure example of the
best Colonial style, the exterior charac-
teristics of which are a large square
structure. with a. portic 0 having fluted
columns with carved caps, a. belvidere on
the roof. circular head windows and del-
icate details of classic origin.

The Dutch design as illustrated is
about the same sized house,‘ but the de-
sign itself admits of . a much smaller
dwelling without destroying the artistic
appearance. We give a brief descrip—
tion.

story, 9 ft., 6 in.; second story. 8'ft., 6
in.

mers and frieze of large dormer orna-
mented with papier-mache; main room

Interior finish: Hard white plaster
throughout.- colored to suit owner’s
taste; soft wood flooring and trim; main
staircase ssh; kitchen and bath, wain-
scotted. All interior Woodwork grain
filled, stained to suit owner and finish.
