The Chirm cf Reciit Poetry: fi
Thought U.ilher tltu lu the
It would be interesting to know hfw
those little books of nv .-pot'try Would
niVtct an in;enou and intelligent
youth; but probably he could not Ull
"if he read them. What one feela more
and more, as he grows older, is that the
new poetry does not seem to be mado
-for him, and he suspects a charm and
virtue in it tnat dos not reach his goal
through his toughened sensibilities.
Very likely they are not in it, but he
finds it the advantage of his spiritual '
health to imagine them there; and he
hopes to acquire merit by supposing
that some one else may feel them. ft
js c, rtainly not always easy to read this
now poetry; but honestly, between one
and one's self, was poetry ever very
easy reading? It is doubtless easiest
when read aloud to a person of the
other sex; then it is charming, if the
person of the other sex is charrnin;
and it has its attractions even when
read aloud to a group of attractive per
sons of the other sex. Or two yawn
men may read it together when they
are both in love, and in like manner
two young girls. But in one's closet
(as one's room is called in poetry, not
the real closet where one's clothes
hang), in the solitude of one's cham
ber, would not one far rather have a
good novel, if he wished to be either
pleased or edified? This is a very bold
question, and it requires all our hardi
hood to put it; but sooner or later sorn
one must ask it, for poetry is gradually'
cnanging us wnoie relation to life,
which it no longer depicts or expresses
in the old way. It no longer even rep
resents literature as it once did. in
the beginnings of modern literature the
mere poetic form was enough; metre
and rhyme meant scholarship, and men
were amazed, as children now are, at
people who could make them. After
ward thought and feeling were demand-ed-as
well as metre and rhyme; then el
egance, then beauty, and beauty more
and more. There was a time, when his
tory was told in verse, and in the epics
there was a good deal of fact 'as Avell as
fiction. In our day Aurora Leigh and
Lucille were attempts to give the poetic
form to novels, and the epic may.be
6aid to have expired in them; their suc
cess ended the long, tradition. The
Dastoral was dead loner aro. dead the
satire, dead the metrical drama. The
tale in verse ceased with Tennyson's
Idyls, and his own and other people's
imitations of them. What we have
left is the essay,-descriptive or subject
ive; the son n'.t. littering in elaborate
form a single thought or emotion; the
lyrical anecdote, the lyrical, conun
drum, the lyrical picture, and the lyric
al cry or outburst. To this last the
metrical shape still seems essential; it
sings and it pleases; but that it is really
essential we do not think any reader .of
Tourgucnief s Poems in Prose will
maintain. Nevertheless it has yet an
undeniable value, though it can no
longer impart this value to thoughts in
themselves poor and slight; and it is
proof of the intellectual and emotional
merit of much in this group of books
that the charm seems inherent in the
thought rather than the form. . . .
Lord Tennyson might be hastily sup
posed to be trying to make us think it
had been, or ought to have been, very
little, in his echo of rLocksley Hall
Sixty Years After." But it seems to us
that his attitude in the poem has
been misconceived, and that he has
been thought to express a personal pes
simism, when the poem was largely
dramatic. As a poem it is very good in
parts, better than its young readers,
who hare not lived long enough to re
gret their passions and prejudices can
know. It breathes the wisdom and
the humility of age, as well as its fore
boding and despair; if it judges the
world harshly and hopelessly, it con
fesses and forgives with touching meek
ness the error and the loss of first love.
For these virtues the imagined speaker
may be allowed to lling about him
somewhat crazily; to find all going
wrong, as old men do, and to rail at
the age as if God had made a mistake
in letting it come to pass. We have
heard a young philosopher, one of the
new school abhorred by such old men
for their desire to look facts in the
face and try to see what they mean, de
clare that years need not always bring
this despair; that the day may come
when men instead of setting up some
little ideal of testhetics, or morals, or
society, which must inevitably topple
over in time, will regard each new de
velopment of seeming good or seeming
ill as part of a design, not inadvisedly
ponceivedt and inevitably working
from everlasting to, everlasting; and
that they then wilt not be shocked, but
Interested and eager for the next turn
of affairs. If the hero of "Locksley
Hall" were living in the possible future
of this hopeful evolutionist, ' he would
probably not scream at "author, athe
ist, essayist, novelist, realist," for be
ing true to their knowledge of human
nature, and would regard "the maiden
fancies wallowing in the troughs of Zo-
iaism" as perhaps no more dangerous-

GOOD COFFEE.
Everybody wants It, but very few get it,
because most people do not know how tc
select coffee, or It is spoiled in the roasting
or makinar. To obviate these dlmcraiues
has been our study. Thurber's package
OofTees are selected by an expert who un
derstands the art of blending various fla
vors. They are roasted in the most perfect
manner (it is impossible to roast well in
small quantities), then put in pound pack
ages (in the bean, not ground,) bearing: our
signature as a guarantee of genuineness,
and each package contains the Thurber
recipe for making good Coffee, we
pack two kinds, Thurber's "No. 34,"
strong and pungent, Thurbers "No. 41,
mild and rich. One or the other will
suit every taste. They have the three
great points, good quality, honest quan
tity, reasonable price. Ask your Grocer
for Thurber's roasted Coffee in pound pack
ages, "No. 84" or "No. 41." Do not be put
off with any other kind your own palate
Will tell you what is best. ' . -

Your Children
Are constantly exposed to danger from
Colds, Whooping Cough, Croup, and
diseases peculiar to the throat and
lungs. For such ailments, , Ayer's
Cherry Fectoral, promptly adminis
tered, affords speedy relief and cure.
As a remedy for "Whooping Cough,
with which many of our children were
afflicted, we used, during the past win
ter, with much satisfaction, Ayer's
Cherry Pectoral. For this affection, we
consider this preparation the most effi
cacious of all the medicines which have
come to our knowledge. Mary Park

'Wanderers, Doncaster, Md,
5 3Iy children have been peculiarly sub
ject to attacks of Croup, and I fatled to
lind any effective remedy until I com-
. meneed administering Ayer's Cherry
Pectoral. This preparation relieves the
difficulty of breathing and invariably
cures the complaint. David G. Storks,
Chatham, Columbia Co., X. Y.
I have used Ayer's Cherry Pectoral
in ray family for many years, and
have found it " especially valuable in
"Whooping Cough. This medicine allays
all irritation, prevents int!:mination from
extending to the lungs, and quickly sub
dues anv tendency to Lunsr Complaint.

'-I find no medicine so effective, for
