RUSSIAN NOVELIST SUPREME:
From the Boston Transcript
From the Boston Transcript.
The light of all other Russians is dimmed to mirrors by writing, in his book on Russian literature, says a copy of the Boston Transcript, by the great radiance of Tolstoy and Dostoevsky.
He considers them not merely as the two great ones of Russian literature, but as two of the greatest figures in world literature. "Russia has not given the world," he says, "an universal Shakespare, a Goethe, a Moliere, for Pushkin, consummate artist and inspired poet as he, or a Moliere, for Pushkin, consummate artist and inspired poet which becomes an art, the utility of all nations, but Russia has given us two prosewriters whose work has done this very thing. And between them they sum up in themselves the whole of the Russian soul, and almost the whole of the Russian character, the almost of the Russian nature, because although between them they sum up all that is greatest, deepest, and all that is weakest in the Russian soul, there is perhaps one element of the Russian character, which, although they understand well enough, can be hard to abade excess." Neither of them shows the ability to represent such a character as to be found in Gogol! Hiestakov, liar and windbag.
Turgenev a Mid-Victorian?
What, however, of Turgenev, to whom Mr. Baring gives the leading position in a chapter on "The Epic Form." He finds his uniqueness declining with the uprising of Tolstoy and Dostoevsky, and his work growing thin and artificial beside the creations of his rivals. He considers his status as in a sense parallel with that of Tennyson in England. But only the popularity of the masses, but the appreciation of the best eclectic judges of literature. Then a new generation came forward, a reaction set in, and Turgenev's problems, characters and ideas no longer aroused any excitement. Both Tennyson and the mid-Victorian possess a great number of the mid-Victorian context. "They are both idyllic, and both of them landscape lovers and lords of language. They neither of them had any striking message to preach; they both them seem to halt, except on rare occasions, on the threshold of pain; they both them seem to have a rare tween the nobility, and in both of them there is an *e*ment of banality. They both seem to a certain extent to be shout off from the world by the trees of old parks, where cultivated people are enjoying the air and the flowers and the shade on parcel; we have yet glimpse landscapes and limpid waters, and soft music comes from the gliding boat. Of course, there is more than this in Turgenev, but this is the main impression. Pathos he has, of the finest, and passion he described beautifully from the side, making you feel its existence, making you that you felt it himself; but on the other hand what an artist he is! How beautifully his pictures are painted; and how rich he is in poetic feeling?"

"My prediction concerning the Tiger track meet," commented Mr. Adams as he stopped shovelling snow for a minute, "is based on the theory given by Uncle Jimmy some years ago which seems to hold good at all times.

HONING FOR SPRING.
HONING FOR FSPRING.
Gosh, but I'm tired of this winter's chill, and makein' fires, and totin' in coal—and cinders out, of the stove房 bow And let me down the red-bud blooms, and the coyote cries through the April night to the starlit skies. Gosh—zickety! I hone for spring.
I know that the farmers they all talk, that the real sharp weather always is the time when a feeder does the biz, lappin' the side-meat on his stock; and feed goes furder and all that, sticks to the ribs and makes more fat—But—oh, Gee Whiz! I hone for spring.
I hone for spring and the onion smell; for clear-turned dirt and a can of bait; for the sweet-flag's bloom by the garden gate, to set the spike of earth and sky, thru the night and day, from a crocus bloom to the Milky Way! Gosh ding it all—I hone for spring!
