RABELAIS PROVED A PROPHET Events He Reco In Tale for the Nursery, Have Now Become Assured Facts. When Pantagruel took leave of the good Gargantua, his royal father, and took shipping at the port of Thalassa for Catay, in upper India, he completed in four months the voyage which it took the Portuguese three years to complete, says the Christian Science Monitor,; Many leagues then lay be ~~ tween father and son, but they com- ~ municated. That is the polnt‘tn turn- ing over the leaves of the cure’s book at this hour, when the dream of the dominion of the air, which has haunted_ the imaginations of men for centuries, has come true, Paotagruel, busily making purchases at the fair sume- where in Asia, hears a joyful cheer and sees that one of his father’s. ad- vice boats has arrived—“that Ship. was light as a Lark, so that !t seem’d tather to fly on the Sea than to sall.” ‘ Pantagruel asked Malicorn, the bear er of dispatches, whether he had Gon- zal, the heavenly messenger. “ ‘Yes, . Sir, here tt is swadied up.In this Bas- *ket.’ It was a grey Pigeon which Pan tagruel caus'd to be undressed and a — aWwhite Ribbon ty’d to its Feet. The Pigeon presently flew away and in ~ two hours {t compass’d the alt, and Gargantua, hearing it had a white rit- bon on, was joyful and secure tn his son's welfare.” That is Rabelais’ lit- tle story, a tale for the nursery, but with all the potentialities which, inthe fullness of time, have been realized, DUMAS A PROLIFIC AUTHOR But His Output of. Books and Plays — Availed Him Nothing When He _' Sought Election. One of the most original election ad- . dresses on record was-that fasned by Dumas pere In 1848, when he stodd for a division of Paris, Although Dumas had been an ardent republican tong be fore the downfall of Louis Philipps was matnly as an employer of | that he sought the suffrages ‘of democ= racy. “During the past 20 years (he wrote, it is recalled) 1 have composed 400 volumes and 85 plays. Bach vol- ume averaged a sale of 4,000 copies, and each play averaged 100 perform- ances, I have thus helped to give em- .— ployment to printers, papermakers, ~ bookbinders, booksellers, etc.; also to — actors, actresses,. stage hands, scene painters, theatrical costumers, ete. The sale of my works produced about 11,853,000 francs, and the money pald to see my plays totaled about.6,360,000 francs, Taking the average daily wage - of all concerned at three francs, and, reckoning 800 rorning days to the year, my books liave kept 692 persons -for 20 years and my plays have kept 1,041 persons for the same period... .. This address, of which huge quanti- ties were distributed, fatied in tis pur- pose. Two years later DumaS' sought election for Guadeloupe and was. again defeated. This so disgusted him that he never tried for election again, Health drive is on this week, and every good Brooklynite will go down in his cellar and clean out all the rub bish and useless stuff except possibly- the furnace, When one ts engaged tn this sort of work he runs across lots of old forgotten stuff, He unearths crayon portfaits of Un- cle Hiram and Aunt Marta, made with an air brush in exchange for 400 cou- pons and $2." They were intended for the parlor, but reached the cellar after throwing the old family canary Into convulsions; and there ts the wreck of the old whatnot that grandma gave you. It used to stand in the corner of the parlor, filled with old family pic: tures, sharks’ eyes, Indian bead work ‘and other terrible monstrosities that -children gazed upon with awe. And as you come across It you remember that the first thing you did after dear grandma passed away was to hustle the whatnot down below, back of a pair of moth-eaten portieres, . And you find your pair of white flan- gel trousers that you wore to a picnic and sat down in on a blackberry: ple. And you recalh.the trouble and embar rassment you had getting home, and of how, when you had the trousers cleaned, the big stain turned green and the trousers went into the discard, And you run across the first silk hat you ever wore, which made you look like an undertaker, and the vase which you smashed and blamed on the cat, caus- ing an Innocent feline to lose a good home; and the tie your wife bought you, on which you deliberately spilled ink, for which no one could blame you. And so you go along rooting out one old article after another, piling them in heaps te wait fer the ashman and the junkman, humming that old hymna, “Sie Transit Gloria.

She made no answer, “How did you come to love me?” fie pleaded, Still. the girl refused to speak, although she smiled encour- agingly at this, “Your name is written on my heart. The world is dark without you, I've built a bungalow for you and me, Let us fly to an isle In the tropic sea, The kiss you gave me set my heart on fire.” She secowled a little, but not at him. She seemed in deep thought, Suddenly she looked into his pleading orbs, “No,” she said, “Nothing lke that.” “My Oola-loola girl.
