PLEASING FOR WOMEN,
The womanly side of Queen Victoria is pictured exceedingly well—and appro- priately, too, in this the month of her seventy-fifth birthday--in an article on “The Womanly Side of Victoria,” which Arthur Warren contributes to the May issue of the Ladies’ Home Journal, Among the pictures in the ariicle, those showing the Queen at breakfast and in her pony carriage, are interesting and new. Frank R. Stockton gives two more of “Pomona’s” characteristic letters, showing the heroine of “Rudder Grange” in various adventures in her quest for a social boom among the English aristocracy. Mr. Howells’ liter- ary b’ography under the title of “My Literary Passions” holds the interest surprisingly well. The editor questions whether all this clamor about this being “woman’s century” is wise. The bic- graphy of the number consists of sketches, with portraits, of Mrs. Edward Everett Hale, the wife of the famous preacher-author, and of Miss Nancy Bailey, the wonderful indexter of England. Mrs. Burton Kingsland takes up the education and religious development of “A Danght-r at Sixteen.” and Alice’ Morse Earle, the author of “China Collecting in America,” gives a delightfully humorous account of her attempt to secure “My Delft Apothe- eary Jars.” Women everywhere are re- membered in Miss Hadley’s “Needle Hon- iton for Polished Tables”; “ The Silks of the Summer” and “The Art of Dressing for Travelling,’ by Mrs. Mallon. “Mater- ials for Suinmer Gowns,” by Emma M. Hooper, and “Still Life in Oil Painting,” by Mrs. Haywood. Thoughtful mothers will appreciate Miss Scovil’s “Children and the Sabbath.” and housekeepers will wel- come the page devoted to “The Strawberry and its Uses.” Altogether this May iseue is singularly attractive and worth many times its modest price of ten cents. Pub- lished by The Curtis Publishing Company of Philadelphia, for ten cents per number and one dollar per year.

“SHCRLUCK HOLMES.” -
The Original of Conan Deyle’s Detective i is an Edinburg Surgeo..
There will not be much dispute, says Harper's Weekly, amongthose who have read Dr. Conan Doyle's ‘‘Adventures of Sherlock Holmes” that they are the best detective stories ever writton in their kind, and that their kind is in some es sential respects a new one.
The current detective of fiction is of French origin, and he bears very little resemblance to the current detective of fact. “he Adventures of Sherlock Holes” for the first time introduce us to a conceivable detective, being a man who cultivated the habit of observation until it has become a second nature or a sixthsense. No disceruing reader of the stories can fail to have been impressed with the possibility thata man who dili- gently employed and trained tacultics that atl men possess might arvive lose ally at conclusions which to less-obser vant persons seem Jike magic when it turns out that they are trie. Sherlock Holmes, in a word, makes much more strongly than any previous detective of fiction the effect of being founded on fact.
it was therefore with great satisfac. | tion that the reader of Dr. Cronan Doyle's fascinating stories learned some time since, from the author of his being, that Sherlock Holmes was indeed found ed on fact and drawn from life, and that the model for him had been a pro- fessor in the medical college in which Dr. Doyle studied. This gentleman has been the cbject of an extensive and pardonable popular curiosity. He is Dr. Joseph Bell, of the Royal Infirmary of Ecinburgh, took his degree at twenty two, was for two years assistant de monstrator of anatomy in the univer sity, then became house surgeon at tne Royal Infirmary, where has remained ever since, having for many years been seuior surgeon, and lately consulting surgeon.
It is evident that the medical profes- sion offers peculiar advantages for the development of the faculty of observa tion, which, indeed, is as helpful and indispensable to an ideal docicr as to an ideal detective. Diagnosis is, indeed, largely detective work, and those who have had the good fortune to be the pa tients of a ‘born doctor,” when they had the misfortune to be patients at ali, often have occasion for astonishment at ;® knowledge of their condition that | seems to them like clairvoyance, but is in truth the result of a natural faculty for observation assiduously cultivate. It is evident that the original of Sher lock Poimes has the faculty iz an em minent degree.
A reporter for the Pall Mall Gazett has had, and related for his paper, a highly interesting interview with the original of Sherlock Holmes. It appear: that Dr. Beil has made nse of his re wnarkable faculty not merely in the li). of his profession, and for the astonish ment of his acquaintances, but that it has frequently been eniployed in actus detective work, and in furtherance oi the ends of justice. As might be ex | pected, he has paid special attention to | medical jurisprudence. The crown re | tains in Edinburgh a regular medica! | adviser in criminal cases, and this medi | cal adviser has for some twenty yeurs | been in the habit of enlisting the serv ices of Dr. Bell, althongh im these case+ he has inerely been retained as an experi, and has no official connection with the crown. ‘ihe reporter who visited Dr. Bell was in Edinburgh to report the Ardlamont murder trial, which has at tracted comparatively little attention 1: this country, but has excited a grea. and widespread interest in England am Scotland; and in this case Dr. Beil ba been retained as an expert adviser foi the prosecution. While he declined to give any reminiscences of his detective work that had not already been made public, he declared that whatever de- ductions he had been able to make that had been of service to the authoritics had been ‘simple and commonplace.”
They had come from the habit he him- self had formed and had tried to incui cate upon all his scholars—Conan Doyle among them—the habit of paying ai tention tu wiiat are commonly disuiisse: as unimportant things. ‘i always im pressed over and over again the vast iim
ortance of little distinctions, the end ess significance of tne trifles.'' To what important resulta this habit may lead is illustrated in the facts of Dr. Bel:’s career, as well asin Dr. Doyle's fiction founded on those facts. One illusira tion of itis striking enough to be well worth giving in Dr. Bell's own reported words:
time. A man walked into the room where I was instructing the stndeuts, and his case seemed to be a very simp: one. I was talking about what wa: wrong with him. ‘Of course, gentie men,’ I happened to say, ‘ke has been « soldier in a Highland regiment, anu probably a bandsman.’ I pointed out the swagger in his walk, suggessive of the piper; while his shortness told me that if he had beeu asoldier it was prob
ably as a bandsman. In fact, he ha
the whole appearance of a man in one o! the Highland regiments. The man turned cut to be nothing but a shoe
maker, and said he had never been in the army in his life. This was rather a floorer: but being absolutely certain I was right, and seeing that something was up, | did a pretty cool thing. I tola two of the stronyest clerks, or dressers, to remove the man to aside room, and to detain him till I came. I went and had him striped. Under the left breast { instantly detected a little blue *D’ branded on his skin. He was a de
serter. That was how they used to mark them in the Crimean days, anil later, although it is not permitted now
Of course the reason of his evasion was at once clear.’
After one knows that Sherlock Holmes is not entirely the creature of the novel ist’s imagination, but that nis qualities are drawn from life, many readers must be incited to develop those qualities in themselves. In the interview from which we have quoted, Dr. Bell says, very truly and suggestiveiy:
‘I should just like to say this about my friend Doyle's stories, that I believe they have inculcated in the general pub- lic a new source of interest—the kind of interest created by Kichard Jefferies and the ‘Scn of the Marshes.’ They make many a fellow who has before felt very little interest in his life and daily sur- roundings think that, after all, there may be much more in life if he keeps his eyes open than he had ever dreamed of in his philosophy. There is # prob- lem, a whole game of chess, in many a little street incident of trifliag occur- rence if one once learns how to make the moves.”
