tlie Elder. . tj osscb of Dumas’ art PoiiaisU in a conce ption of life without con science; without dread of death, or of thodtcoins that may come when \yo huvQ shuffled oJF tliia mortal coil. He was not a thinker. Of IInmlr: Dumas could understand little oi nothing. No hero of Dumas is ewr sicklied o’er by the pale cast of thought. IIo lives without thinking about life—or death; lives for tbo en joyment and gladness of living and of loving; lives toy ambition, fight- mg. wealth and pleasure, and is al ways gallantly Heady to defend his honor with his sword. An unbounded self indulgence shades olF into tlio neutral tinted superstition engendered by a corrupt church. These heroes are young, handsome, graceful, brave, arc full of superficial chivalry, and of the external require ments of nobleness. They are gener al lv animated, vivacious, gay, joyous, ana there is always pleasure in con templating men who, ruled by any ideas, yet livo and aro full of life. With his views of life it comes to pass that this gaillard Dtunas deals much with the alliterative nualitics of ad venture, adultery, ambition, assassin ation, and abovo nil. ho revels in a duel—a duel fierce, determined, skill ful, deadly. IIo is a truo lover of the sword, specially of tlio picturesquo rapier, combined with tlio fahil dag ger. Duinas delights in the sumptuous hilt and in tho white gleaming of the lovely blndo of. tho knightly anno blanche. Wlmt a Gascon is to an or dinarv Frenchman that is Di^ms to all other romancers. Ho cares i. tiling for morality when it stands in "ppn.si tion to valor, passion, success, splen dor. His work is, |>erliap.s, more subtly suited to bis native land than it is to Germany or to England, but yet it delights all that love romance and care for tho picturesquo of chivalry and even of crime, it is enough for Dumas if his heroes bo of iiohlo birth, of reckless valor, young, and with tho graces of cuinp and court. His view of life is mainly showy and’ romantic; a view who'll. as an alterative from sterner anti nobler con ceptions. wo can heartily enjoy. The vigor hii(] agility of Dumas’ virile and vivacious mind and temperament al ways worked hi fullest sympathy with the characters that he‘depicted, and witli tho manners and morals of the times which he portmved. His young cavaliers had to each Go a gallant to his lady, a warrior to his foe. Philip Sidney, when his contracted bride, Penelope, Ixnupo Lady Rich, by a strong effort or moral rectitude con quered an unlawful passion; but Du mas would not have sympathized with tho heroic action, and would have re garded the peerless paladin with much surprise and with somo contempt.— Gontlerann's Magazine. Tlio ftlcdgo ami tlio Deer. Tho body of tho sledge is placed very high on a pair of long thin runners, having a gradual curve and projecting about four feet beyond tuo actual sledge, so that they creak tho shock when tho sledgo is being driven over rough ground. All tho parts of tho glcago aro lashed together with rein doer skin thongs, and If isowing to the great elasticity and pliancy thereby given to tho wholfc fabric that these flimsy constructions resist tho very rough treatment to which they arc as a rulo subjected. Tho method of harnessing tho deer is of the simplest; abroad leather hoop passes round the neck; to this is fastened the long tlnnig, which serves as a trace, and which passes down the chest between the fora legs and out between the hind legs. Tlio driving is done with a single rein, which .is fastened to a crooked niece of bono or wood, fastened imme diately over the ball of the eye, one of the tenderest parts in the reindeer, and which, if scientifically jorkcu to tho right or left, causes tlio animal to an swer to tho rein very quickly. The outsido deer on tho near side is the only ono provided with this arrange ment, and tho biggest ami oldest deer ara always placed in this-responsible iKwition, the others being kept to their work by tho “chnvc,” or long driving pole. A good “leading" deer i* the most valuable of a hJcunoyede’s posses sions. and >\ ill often coat us much as three or fourordinary deer. The usual number of di'er*hariiess<»d ton sledge is thive; but this, of course, varies ac cording to tho weight carried, agi* of the deer, etc.—Murray’s Magaziug. Alii Ire l i.v. A woman with her jaw tied up in a handkerchief was standing in the way leading to a Woodward avenue dentist’s yesterday when a boy came along, caught on, und stopped to in- quin*: “Ache very hard.'" “Yes.” “How long?*’ “For a week.” “Going to have it pulled “I I guess SO.” “Tried p«ppuniimt, camphor, hot salt, ashes, laudanum and so on, 1 sup pose.” “Kicked over chairs, spanked tho children and jawed wm* husband “Yes.” “Lemiue see.” She opened licr mouth and put her finger on the tooth, and he made a brief ins;>ection and said: *‘I was going to advise the faith cure, but it’s too far gone.
