It U curious what a penchant Pick , tna bad (or cert la melodramatic situ ations, which seemed to bis fancy so telllDf that be related and reproduced them many time over. That his work art all dramatic and concclrtd In the . true spirit of the stage Is plain froiu . lb rest lint of adaptations. Each story has been adapted a (rain and gain ami will bear the process admit- rably. ', One method for winding up his riot, to which he wns excessively partial, was the unmasking of the villain ow ing to the betrayal of some confeder ate. The parties are generally brongiit together iu a room by the more virtu oua members. Tim confederate then merges from his concealment and tells 'a lung story of villainy. We have tul denouetueut tlrst la "Oliver Twist," where Mouks makes bis rerelatious. In "Nlckleby" Ralph Is confronted with the man Snawlcy and Squeera." In . "The Old Curiosity Shop" Qullp la alin Uarly exposed. la "Barnaby Rudge" Haredale forces bis hereditary enemy to make revelations. In "CSkoxaiewlt" 'jonaa Is confronted with another be trayer. In "CopperflekT Uriah Heep ' la denounced and exposed by Ur. Ml eawber. In "Bleak House" Lady Ded ' lock Is similarly tracked. In nearly all -' the cases the guilty person goes off and commits suicide. London Spectator. THE FLUTED COLUMN. War tae Greek A4t4 Thla Fwa la Taelr Are ttaetara. The Greeks observed that a smooth column melted la the light and that 1U l'res trer? vague and uncertain, writes Jean Bchoepfer In the Axchltectura: Record Msgs line. In order to restore Its deflnlteness they conceived the Idea of fluting It The sharp ridges of th v flutlngs, catching the light, contrasted with the dark hollows, thus giving body to the column and emphaslxlni the vertical outline of the edifice, whence a double advantage. This dls covery could never bave been made oc paper. Then, as the abacus of the capital , casta a shadow upon the top of the column, the junction of capital and col umn becomes Indistinct To restore th necessary effect the Greek cuts severa! deep lines at the point of Junction, and to emphasize them he paints them in a dark tone. Even the curve of the cir cular torus carrying the abacus la ; designed that the bright light atrlklnc ' upon the relief, shall fade Into a shaded balf tint toward the hollow. Thus, at Vlollet le Due truly says, the Greek preserves even In appearance the forms which his reason tells him to adopt as being the best and most enduring. A GORGEOUS SIGHT.

The Cormoraat. The cormorant Is trained by the Chi nese aa a fishing bird. A ring Is placed around the bird's neck, which prevents It from swallowing the fish It has taken.
