, ders _ith a . . "V Won_ian'ih Literature. . There used to be in the literature produced by_` women a` distinct quality .of femininity. `It is not so common it once was, although `names of living writers might be given whose work has it- ' But not to excite the animority .of any who would dislike to be accused of it we may safely go to a remote part for an ex- ample, and we certainly shall not give offence by recalling the Letters of Madame de Sevigne. ,,This delightful quality, which everybody rec- ognises, has a charm quite distinct from any grace of style as it is usually dened. It is as indenable as the charm of a beautiful woman. The most that we can say of it is thit it is a n to of femininity, - No man, whatever his es- prit, or his delicacy. or his lightness of touch, has ever had.it,not. even the most efieminate among-, menwriters. It is a most desirable _and valuable quality, and the one quality that women can and men cannot contribute to literature. In these days most women con- sider it a compliment if their anonymous writ- ings are takento be the productions of men. And mcn--they are still so unga1lant- would be annoyed if the careless judgment be passed upon their works, ,`'Sounds as if it were writ- ten by a woman. It is understandable why women wish to be thought to write like men. . on the theory that litera ure, like other art, is sexless, and that there isonly one standard of excellence But it is not understandable `why woman, enfranchised and come as an equal into the kingdom of letters, should wish to drop a quality so fascinating and so full of potency and charm as that we are speaking of Practically in her competition with men she has dropped it. We ennounter it less and less. And it isa; grave question whether the )e-en- forcement of literature by an increasing number of women who write so that their productions cannot be distinguished from those of men is a compensation for the loss of this lovely qual- ity of femininity. Is it necessary that Women irrgaining knowledge and skill should sacrice t s most exquisite expression of woman as wxnan, that is. the expression of a charm w_M'ch is one of the few notes "of reminiscence ofur fallen state?

This unexpecfecl meeting with an old: friend was too much for the Rev; James Gray. and be promptly jumped the booth. ` Statistics regarding the tide in the bay of Fundy are so startling as to seem almost in- credible.

The result is that the railroad will be about 100 miles longer than was sup- oaed from theestimates made in 1891. ; `he most direct route possible to the ` northeast shore of the lake has been fol-. lowed." and it is found that the road will be 657 miles long. ` - , "L _ LI-.. -\u.\:nn`-Ar` `~gtatai0n3_:Wl>u`_DeH PIDYIUGQI. 1`duI_;U__L my nuuu points. as ,.the traic demands.

It will also be necessary to main- tain a special railsoad police force. _ The route passes through some of the richest _ cultivated districts and the most popu-. lous regions in East Africa. From its terminus on Lake Victoria communica- tion by steamboats plying on the lake will connect the railroad with the fertile - _ districts around the shores and grant the outlet that is so necessary for the devel- opment of these countries. '- The general average speed of trains is estimated at twelve miles an hour, in, cluding stoppages. On sections ' with easy gradients. and these include the greater part of the line, a speed of twen. ty miles or more may be permissible. When the line is first opened trains will be run only by daylight. ' This gives a running time of ten hours, or a total` disfsance traveled each day of about 120 1 es. . - The oicials take a favorable view of ie earning ca acity of the road. A They y that, in t eir opinion, the actual orking expenses of the road for the rstfew years would not exceed $316,000, A nd it is probable that the road at the ' utset would be nearly able, from the reight and passenger trac, to pay the vorking expenses. This does not in- lude the interest on the investment_.and t rst there would be a decit on the" 'equired amount of gross earnings to ayall expensesof about $300,000 a year. hey do .not think, however, that this ecit would be for many years a tax '; , pon the enterprise. - 1 Great Britain has now assumed the ontrol of Uganda, and as the building f this railroad is vitally necessary to the evelo ment of the lake region there seems` ittle doubt that the Victoria Ny- anza railroad will be the next enterprise as fI1n.s:nH: tn` B IIILICAG I L vwu `bf the;sort 1:6 I N. -Y.
