The spread of yellow fever appears te baye been limited effectually by quaran tine previsions, but in the territory where It began all efforts te battle with it have been futile. Jacksonville is under the full sway et Yellow Jack, and he new has victims in every part of the city, be that in a very few days a great Increase in the number of sick may be expected. 8e far there have only been thirty deaths in the town and the dam dam age is net much greater than has often happened in a few minutes by a railway disaster, but the terror and gloom et the situation arises from the certainty that the pestilence has a foothold and Is bound te,. run its course. It has in the pastdciled the best et human skill, and the most that can be hoped is that the quarantine will be successful and ether cities will be saved. There are disquiet ing rumors of fever In ether parts, neta. bly near Chobeygan.MIchlgan; and north ern cities should net permit themselves te be lulled Inte a false security by their long immunity from this distinctively Southern curse. Lancaster should stir herself In the perfection of her dralnoge system and water works, for dirt is the best friend of disease, and, though we are net half us unclean as some ether towns, we are cer tainly net as Irreproachable as we might be. The spectacle 'of u city cut oft nbso nbse lately from her nolghbers and left alernly alene te fight with a merclless and mys terious fee ; her trade, wealth and power annihilated in n few dnys, and the lives of all her citizens in deadly peril, should impress, all city fathers with the urgency of etcrnal vigilance In civic cleanliness.

They are paying mero and mere ttentlcn te the moehanloal raake up or their publications. Yeu mark this, for Instance, In the absence among recent books et the oneo-fashtonable prelusion et gilt atamplng and meaningless ornamentation. Yen see Itlnrtberln the decided tendency te avoid uniformity, a mere samenesa or sl7, shape, and style of blndlna-witheut any regard te the character of the book. The great thing new almed at Is appro priateness. The paper, print, and binding most In some dogree at least oenform te tbe character et the oentenla. They ere the dress or tbe book, and ought te be made te express what the book is, just as fully as the dress eta man or woman expresses their essential characteristics. Helderu are two people allke enough te warrant thelr dressing- alike. Almest as seldom are two books, even et the same author, se similar as te Justify thelr being printed and bound In precisely the same style. As I aald, publishers are beglunlng te rccognlze the Importance et this princi ple; though as yet "there's but a small beginning made." The custom of produc ing "uniform seta" or books Is se strong, has become se Urmly fixed, that It aeeras hard te break away from Itnllogsther. Yet It Is a most foolish, sonseloso, uetoithetle custom. Its felly Is well Illustrated by the nocesslty pnt upon artist In a pub lishing house as Houghten, Mifflin & Ce,, te put each new velume, ter example, of Lewell and of Unlmes Inte n style uniform with that In which thelr first book appeared years sua It soeina nltogetber abserd te publish the bright, chatty, essays of the old autocrat In exactly the same style In which his medlcal works, or his novelr, or yothlspeoms worn breucht out.

Then It was said that these wero only special ellerts, a sort of morcantlle "spurt," and net In tbe regular llue of his publications.

Among none of the ordinary books et these latter have I ever seen anything mere tastelul and dainty, without being faney, than James Weed Davidsen's little 2lme velume en "The Poetry et the Future," in wuicu no propeunuaanu defends and lllus. tratea a novel aud suggestlve theery of loetry.

" Fer hoevon's sake, " said 1, " what Is it you have en the neeks of theso goese 7 " "Theso are gourds fullet water. 1 drive the gcose Inte that cotton patch, and keep them thore all day weeding out the cotton.
