What Oar Boys Are Heading.
Professor Sumner of Yale has been exam
ining. the flash story papers so widely read
by boys, and in Scribner tot March gives
some earnest words of warning to parents,
accompanied by specimens of the types de
scribed in the stories. Here is one :
"Another type of hero very common in
these stories is the city youth, son of a rich
father, who does not give his son as much
pocket money as the latter considers suita
ble. This constitutes stinginess on the fath
er's part, although it might be considered
pardonable, seeing that these young men
drink champagne every day, treat the crowd
generally when they drink, and play bill
iards for $100 a game. The father, in this
class of stories, is represented as secretly vl
clous and hypocritically pious. In the spec
imen of this class before us the young man
is "discovered" in the Police Court as
prisoner, whence he is remanded to the
Tombs. He has been arrested for collaring
a,big policeman, to prevent him from over
tiiking a girl charged with pocket-picking.
He interfered because he judged from the
girl's face that she was innocent, and it is
suggested for future development in the
story, that she was running away from in
sult, and that the cry of "stop thief was
to get help from the police and others to
nelzo her. The hero, who was the son of a
man worth five millions, and who is in pris
on under an assumed name, now sends for
Ids father's clerk and demands $1,000, saying
that otherwise he will declare his retl name
and thus disgrace his family. He gets the
money. He then sends for a notorious
Tombs lawyer, to whom he giyes$500. With
this sum his release is easily procured. He
then starts with his cousin to initiate the
latter Into tbo life in New York. They go
to a thieves' college where they see a young
ellow graduated. His part consists in tak
ing things lrom the pockets of a banging
figure, the garments of which bells are at
tached, without causing the bells to ring,
Of this a full page illustration is given. Thi
two young mtn then go up to the Bowery to
beer saloon where the hern sustains his
character by his vulvar familiarity with
tlie cirl waiters. Next, they hear a row in
Je street. They find a crowd collected,
watching a woman who hangs from a third
story window, while her husband cuts and
beats Iter hands to make her fall. The hero
solves this situation by drawing his revolvor
and shooting the man. As he and bis com
panion withdraw unobserved, the former
wards off the compliments ot the latter by
saying modestly that he could not bear to
stand there and see ruch a crowd looking on,
and not knowing what to do, so he justdld
the proper thing. Next day the hero, meet
ing the thieves' college graduate in the
Corridor of the Fifth Avenue Hotel, agrees
to receive and hold for him any booty he
may seize In the bar-room which he does.
At night lie and his frieud go to a disreputa
ble masked ball, where the hero recognizes
his father in disguise amongst the dancers,
Securing a place in the same set, during
ftutiaa It, Ih.Ha n, 1, a n.l.1,u .1. a m..t f

his own face and his father's at the same
moment. This edifying incident is enforced
by a full page, illustration. A friend sug
gests the question, Whatdemon of truthful
ness makes the artist put such brutal and
vulgar faces on the men? In this claw of I
slsries, fathers and sous are represented as
natural enemies, and the true position for
the son Is that of suspicion and armed peace.
A Vermonter tin Mr. Kvarls.
At the great meeting held in Cooper In-
atltute in October last, to sustain the admin
istration of President Hayes, at which It
bad been announced that Mr. Evarts would '
be present, a gentleman from Vermont, who
had neyer seen the Secretary of State, but
Jjaila desirt to do so, said to the person seat
ed next to him, "Is Mr. E-varta on the plat
lorm I"
"No; he has not yet arrived."
"He's expected ?''
"Ob yet-; he'll be along presently."
"I've never seen Mr. E-varU, though I've

Farmer Samuel. Neighbor, I wait to
buy that eolt of yours.
Farmer Jonathan. Ysry well ; lb prist
la tlOO.
F. 8. Here are ten bills of mine for 10
each, payable on demand, which will be
just as good as gold to you, or in fact better,
for they are not so heavy to carry about.
F. J. Dut when will you pay them?
F. S. Whenever you please! I will give
you a hundred dollar bond for them any
day, and that will be still better, fer it la to
bear interest at the rate of one cent a day.
Only think how fast you will mako rich at
that rate, neighbor "Jonathan,,
F. 8. Ttut how is this interest to be
paid?
F, 8. Quite promptly. I will give you
ten due-bill often dollars each for it when
ever you wish.
I , J. Hut where am I to get anything
for these pieces of paper, Uncle Samuel,
either the due-bills or the bonds ?
F. S. What else do you want, Jonathan?
You can pass these to your neighbors for
what you want, and get similar ones from
them when you Bell anything. Don't you
see, this is the best currency in the
world?
F. J. Dut am I never to get anything but
pieces of paper for what I sell.
F. S. Is not that paper perfectly secure ?
Am I not good for all I promise? Have I
not a magnificent farm that would pay for
all the paper I issue a hundred times over ?
F. J. Hut if I should want to get gold
for these notes, could I sua you and sell
enough of your farm to pay me?
F. 8. Ob, no ; my farm is held under
the Homestead law, and cannot bo sold.
You can never get gold that way ; but the
paper is far better than the gold. If you
must have gold, however, you can go to tho
fellows in Wall street, and pay them any
where from thirteen to thirty or fifty per
cent, for it, as the rapacious and bloated
bulllonists may choose to demand.
F. J. After all, then, I am only to get
somewhere from $70 to $90 for my colt.
F. 8. You need never make any such
loss ; just be content with the bits of paper,
and never mind the gold.
F. J. But If I want to buy some lumber
in Canada, or sugar from the West Indies,
or broad-cloth from England, will they take
your due bills?
F. S. In that case you will have to pet
gold to pay with, whatever it may cost.
F. J., (figuring up). Then if, when you
have Issued a great many bills, gold should
rise to 50 per cent, premium, your paper dol
lar would only bring 60 2-3 cents worth in
those countries, and so my lumber, or sugar,
or cloth, would cost me half as much again
as it should.
F. S. But you need not buy away from
borne, Get your lumber in Minnesota, your
sugar in Louisiana, and your cloth ;in New
England.
F. J. But would I get any more for my
paper dollar from them than from people
abroad ?
F. S. I cannot say you would.
t. J. incn these articles at nome are
just made as dear by being paid for in pa
per as it would cost to buy the gold to pay
for them abioad. In other words, where-
ever I buy I can only get the 88 or CO 2-3
cents worth for my paper dollar, according
to the premium on gold
Now honestly, Uncle Samuel, would it
not be belter, seeing you are so rich and
have such a magnificent farm, to raise the
hundred dollars in gold upon it nt once and
pay fur my colt in honest money that will
pass anywhere at its full face value? This
proposal to twist round and pretend to pay,
when you don't really pay one cent, either
of principal or interest, could never como to
good. Believe me, this dodging might do
for a while, but by and by your irredeema
ble paper bills would take their place beside
tho old Continental bills, of which a bushel
would i.ot buy a loaf of bread.
F. S. Huli, Jonathan, don't you think I
know that. I do not mean to hurt you, but
only to pay off those foreigners with this
never-to-be paid paper, who lent me the
money that enabled me to koep my farm
whole when the half it was like to be
taken from me,
F. J. But why cheat then ?
F. S. Oh, you see they are not cheated ;
they lent me fifty cents on the dollar, and I
should only pay them the same.
F. J. But at the time they lent was not
your credit bad?
F. 8. Why as to that, some thought It no
bettor than that of my enemy. Those who
lent to hint lost all, but if he had gained the
battle, it might have been thoae who lent to
me that would have lost all
F. J. Now, uncle Samuel, was not that
loan, ven at fifty cents on the dollar, the
best bargain you ever made, seeing it ena
bled you to preserve all your farm? You
a absolutely needed the money thr,n. ami
I .. " . 1 '
.. J... , , hotter t-rm. 1!
thcu, can you think, after you have obtained
the benefit of going back on the promises
you made in your time of extreme danger ?
r.s.-bay no more. I'll raise tho Kold
honestly on the income of my farm, aud pay
every one in real and not sham dollars. No
more bills that carry lies on the face of them

What once, In flery test ot war,
So proved Itself, must ever stand,
To make the land worth living for,
Since others died to save the land I
1 Take from their Hps the parted breath I
Make Life as glorious as is Death
To them that triumph when ther fall ;
Still bid the phantom wuadrons thronir :
'Their purpose and their will prolong
'To guard the Right, repeal the Wrong,
And git Ing, gain their all I
IX.
Are they but soldiers who enlist
when peril shocks the Nation's heart ?
Who leave the maiden's lids unklssed.
(ir klsi the wife and child, and part?
But soldiers then, when calls the drum
And calls the flashing boyonet ! "Uome "
And batteries challenge : "It you dare '."
When all the standards wa?e unfurled.
And otber clouds than rieaven's are hurled
And death floats tree In air ?

They most are soldiers, who shall keep
That cumax of their manhood yet ;
Wbo stand on guard when others sloop.
Ana hear in mind what all forget I
Not In the clash ot steel is found.
For them, the only battle-ground :
Equipped and armed, through lite they go.
Their heart's best blood resolved to spend,
w here Honor shows some grander end,
For whom each true man Is a friend.
And eaob false man a foe I

If knaves'.begulle. by felon art.
The shitting favur ot the hour:
If civic rule from right depart.
And brazen Impudence has power:
If low Ambition buy bis place
while Merit waits In half-disgrace,
mitt unaecidea sways the flgutt
The bugle etllt to charge commands;
There Is no truce of tongues or hands.
No quarter, while one foe man stands
To mock eternal Ulght I
XII.
The Idle blade Is gnawed with rust.
Tuougn meteor ot a hundred fields :
The lance, unhandled, falls to dust.
Tnat proved ua grain on shivered shields.
And Manhood, tbst has learned to dan,
Should as a sword his courage wear.
ins nonor as a flag defend -.
Should stand, amid the heedless host,
. we-iong sentry at his post,
nis sole device and knightly boast:
To break, but not to bend I

Soldiers of Peace ! In ar began
Your service, and It must not cease
Until the aoldler througb tbe man
lias conquered and ennobled peace I
Frank eyes ot j oulh grow bright, to trace
A spell on each MMorlc face
That sets your Uvea their own above ;
And woman's homage, tweet and any,
Not woman's pride shall date deny,
Since he who readiest la to die
Is truest In his lovel

One loyal habit summons all
From out the dust of old desires t
Due spark of truth your deeds let fall

Though Youth's Wllet be Manhood's doubt.
Ai.d generous hopes bo trampled out
By cynic scorn or selfish ui,
Yet honor stays, devotion burns,

No man bis early faith uolrarns,

Your fame that longest shall endure !

But nobler yet to make It purr,
