The physician attending him prouosuced his dis- eyse diphtheria in its worst form, from which hedied in a very short time. We had to quaranting the case and did all we possibly could to velieve his sufferiug, incurcing as little expenso us possible, supposing that the county would have to pay the exvense, as he had no friends or monoy.

Thoro is a vemarkable young girl up town, says the Woman-About-Town of the New York Fvening Sun, She ought not be 8o vemarkable as she is, and the vory fact that her reading habits are worth chronicling is a sad comment on the cheap and perverted taste for litera- ture that is, alas! too characteristic of the young peoplo all about us. Sho wus recently asked if she had read a certain new society novel, of which everybody was talking and over which youngz women particularly were warmly enthusiastic, She looked a little shamefaced as she replied: **No: [ tried to read it, but I just couldn’t and so I gave it up.”’ A discussion of books and novels followed in“which it transpired that the young girl had never read one of the duchess’ novels, nor of Rhoda Broughton's, nor of Ouida, nor any of that school of English writers whose heroines thrill and throb and clutch, and hunger as our dear old autocrat would suy **Nor Miss Aleott, nor Miss Murfee, Hayes, nor Marion Craw= 70 was asked. She looked distressed, buc shook her head, *Perhaps 1t is Howell's, then, or Al- drich, or even Henry James?”’ Still she shook her head. “Do tell me, then, what y ing ovor hours out of each da; “I have no husivess living in this generation,” she answered, 1 belong to the past. I hardly kvow the ues of all these authors you have been askh ing about. Iread what my father and mother did—Scott, and Dickens, and Thackeray, and Bulwer, and Addisoo, and Butler, and Maculay.” **And no modern writers?’’ 've read George Elliott and George Sand and a little of Balzac, T've tried to read fhe present-day writers, I really have.
