HONORED BY FRENCH ACADEMY
Louis Frechette, the bard of French Canada,
has been named as laiireate of the French acade
my. While a most unusual honor, particularly
since its recipient is a resident of this conti
nent, it adds nothing to --the distinction that is
universally accorded Dr. Frechette as the last of
that brilliant group of poets and novelists who
have made French Canada and the simple life
of the 'habitant known to the world. Of this
group, Frechette and Drummoud wee undoubt
edly the leaders, although Gaspe with his "Les
Anciens Canadiens," Mannette and Kouthier
have -'all made enviable names in the world's
literature.
Dr. Frechette was bom in Quebec a half
century ago, and was originally intended for the
law. He abandoned that dry profession, how:
'ever, and after a five years' residence in Chicago, he returned to Quebec and
plunged into politics. For a few years he was a member of the Dominion
.parliament, but politics, too, failed to hold his fancy and went over to Mon
treal and to literature. A legislative clerkship furnished him with a modest
livelihood until the quaint charm and the charming revelations of life in,
French Canada made him independent. The place he occupies in the field of
literature is peculiarly his own, and the habitant could have no more gently
sympathetic chronicler. '
Honors have come to the poet from many countries before this later trib-'
ute of the academy. He was elected a knight of the French Legion of Honor
nearly SO years ago, when two of his books were crowned by the Immortals.
jHe has been given many high orders and, decorations by "the rulers of Great
;Britain and other countries, and he is accounted a member of many learned
societies. He was lately president of the Koyal Society of Canada.
A Few Suggestions.
"There is fretfulness, 1 a mizzling,
drizzliug ' rain of discomforting re
mark; there is grumbling, a northeast
snowstorm that, never clears ; there Is
scolding, the thunder storm with light
ning and hail. All these are worse
than useless; they are positive sins by
whomsoever indulged sins as great
and real as many that are shuddered
at in polite society. All these are for
the most part but the. venting on our
fellow beings o morbid feelings re
sulting from dyspepsia, overtaxed
nerves or general 111 health." Mrs.
Beecher Stowe.
Professor's Sarcasm.
Prof. Jowett's comments on the
young men of Balliol, - Oxford, ; often
took the form of crushing sarcasms.
"The college, Mr. X, thinks highly 1,
of you," he once said; "perhaps toci
highly; but not half so highly, I aaj
sure, a yoa think of yourself." .
Why Not?
Among the oddest personals ever in
serted in the society column was one
that appeared in a paper published in
an eastern town. It reads as follows:
"Mrs. Coulter, being confined to her
bed by illness, will not be at home
'next Thursday, as usual." Harper's
Weekly.

"Well, don't get fussy about it IC

kept on ringing for another - hour."

A thousand mulberry trees have
been planted at Seville, Spain, in an
attempt to revive the silk industry,
