ing but a reading club, devoted te
the study OF single author; and
Shakespeare may well engage a club
for single Writer. Such a club
would cultivate the art Of good
reading, which is one of the best
and most useful of all accomplish
ments. 1t would cultivate thought,
Imagination, taste. In brief, the
whole tendency of the reading club
is toward culture-the one thing,
Notwithstanding all our educational
advantages, the most deplorably
lacking in the average American
man and woman.
There was a time when the popu-
lar lecture was a scource not only
of amusement but Of culture
whenit stimulated thought, devel-
oped healthy opinion, conveyed in
struction, and elevated the taste.
The golden days when Sumner,
Everett, and Holmes, Starr King,
and Professor Mitchell, Bishop
Huntington and Bishop Clark,
Beecher and Chaplin, Emerson, Cur
tbs, Taylor, and Phillips, were all
actively in the field, were days of
genuine progress. Few better
things could happen to the Ameri-
can people than the return of such
days as those were; and the cleo
ture system,'' asst mas been called,
is declining in It's usefulness and in
terest, simply because it has net
men like these to give it tone and
value. A few of the Old set linger
in 'he field, but death, old age, and
absorbing pursuits have Withdrawn
the most of them. The platform
is not what it was. The literary
trifer, the theatrical reader, the
second or third rate concert, have
nisIodged the reliable lecture goers :;
and the popular lecture will Ger
Iainly be killed if bad management
can kill it. The standard has not
been raised or even maintained IL
has been lowered-lowered spe-
cially, and W tn direct purpose, to
meet the tastes Of the vulgar crowd.
W ell, the young people, in
whose hands the "Iecture system"
has always been, can mend all this,
If they consider it worth the pains
Certainly The conn g into contact
with thoroughly vItalized man OF
BRAINS is very stimulating expert
ence. The privilege Of doing so
should not he lightly relinqnl>hed !;
and, whenever course OF lecture
Is well conducted, it ought to meet
with a generous patronage from all
who have young people on their
hands to be entertained and I'M
proved.
But even the lecture, desirable
as 1T Is, Is not necessary. In city
like New York, there ought to be
five hundred clubs of young people
established this very winter, for
the purposes OF social and intellect
uaI amusement, with culture m
view as the great ultimate end.
The exercises may take a great
many forms which it is not neces-
sars for us even to suggest Books
may be read, original papers may
be presented, musical rehearsals
may form part Of the entertain
ment, products Of art may be ex-
hlbited, there may be dramatic and
conversational practice, and prac-
tice in French and German. There
is no limit to the variety Of exer-
clses that may be profitably entered
upon. And what is good for the
young people Of the great cities
will be just as good for young PEG
pie everywhere.

The Baby's Weight.

DIR. Groussin, OF Bellevue, has con-
trived a machine which he calls 6er-
cedu-JaLdnce orpeSe6e6e, by means of
which the anxious young mother may
assure herself from day to day, or even
from hour to hour, that the baby is
going on satisfactorily as regards in
crease of weight. 1t consists of an or
binary cradle, To suit the taste, fitted
with a balance underneath, which will
tell the exact weight of the cradle and
its contents, without any need for dis
turbing the child. 1t is said that after
two complete days of life a child
weighs about four ounces less than at
birth. When a week old, it will be of
the same weight as at birth. From
seven days to five months the average
increase should be three-quarters of an
ounce daily. At five months the
weight should be double that at birth.
AT sixteen months the weight should
be double that at five months. OF
course, infants vary from time to time,
and each individual has a rule of its
own the great point is that growth
ought to be constant.

The Dead Ex-Presidents.

1t was mentioned in the notice of
the decease OF ex-President johnson
that he was the last of those who have
held the Presidential Office except the
present incumbent. The Philadelphia
Ledger reminds US that this has not
been the case hitherto since the death
of Washington, who died during the
term of his successor, the elder Adams.
Through the whole Of Jefferson's adj
ministration Adams was living du-
ring Madison's eight years Adams and
Jefferson were alive, and during the
two terms Of Monroe, Adams, Jeffer-
son and Madison survived. In the
second year OF John Quincy Adams,
Jefferson and Adams both died, DULY
4, 1926 leaving Madison and Monroe
alive. During a part Of Jackson's
terms there were three surviving ex-
decentralization, Monroe, and
Quincy Adams-but as Monroe died in
1881, and Madison in 1886, there was
but one of Jackson's predecessors alive
at the end of his second term. Under
| Van Buren's administration jackson
and Quincy Adams were the surviving
| ex-Presidents, and both these, with
the addition of Van Buren,, lived
! through the terms of Harrison and
/
| Tyler.
In the early months of Folks ad'
ministration there were four living eX
Presidents, but General Jackson's de-
cease, June s, 1915, and that of JohI
Quincy Adams in 1913, left but tive
survivors at the close of the term o
Mr.. Polk. When Taylor was inaugu
rated the survivors were Van Buren,
Tyler and Polk, but the decease o
Polk in June, 1S49, again left but twt
surviving ex-Chief Magistrates, ant
the same two continued among tn
: living during the terms of Taylor ant
Fillmore. During Pierce's admins
tration the living ex-Presidents wer
Van Buren,, Tyler and Fillmore an,
during Buchanan's there were four
viz, the three last named and Genera
Pierce. At the beginning of Lincoln
administration there were five livinI
Presidents, but two of these, Val
Buren, aud Tyler, died in 1862, leay
ing three to survive until after Lin
coins own decease; one Of whom
Buchanan, died in 1868, but still leay
ing Pierce and Fillmore until after tn
end of Johnson's term. AT the CON
mencement of General Grants ad
ministration there were three surv
vors, but of these Pierce died /

1873, and Johnson in July, 1875; thu

A "REMINISCENCES.
A sketch From the Early History OF
Ex.President johnson.
1t was away back in the dim visit

1t was away back in the dim vista
of about 1895, that the writer was
student of Tusculum University, four
miles east of Greeneville, under the
management of that remarkable old
Scotchman, himself mountain of
learning and piety, the Rev. Samuel
Doak. The school was patronized by
all upper East Tennessee, and in a
most flOurishing condition, and, as all
good institutions of learning should
have, it had its polemic societies, in
which Andrew Johnson, then about
twenty-five years of age, occasionally
participated, frequently walking out
from town Friday evening, and spend
ing the night with the boys after the
debate terminated. They in turn
called at his tailor's shop when occa-
sion led them to Greeneville. Here he
had bookcase or bank of shelves on
the end of his counter, from which he
would frequently take down diction-
aries and encyclopedias to support an
argument.
ne writer very distinctly remem-
bers " Andy's " frequently illusions to
the above mountains in sight of his
burial mound. At that time it was
not uufrequeht to make excursions
from the school amid this rugged, wild
scenery, i'm which the future President
often participated, being looked upon
as a great favorite and interesting COM
pany. And he always became anima-
ted and enthusiastic when speaking of
this romantic region, and taking much
pleasure to enlighten us in its botany,
geology, and minerals. These noun
tains then appeared to be his favorite
theme for discussion and conversations

A. 7. Stewart Deals With Mrs.
OlFlanagan.

Mrs. O'Flanagan is said to be the
name Of a lady who owned a piece Of
the Congress street property at Sarato-
ga recently purchased by Mr.. A. I.
Stewart, the merchant prince. They
are telling how she outwitted the
great merchant. Mr.. Stewart called
and offered her 800, 600 for her lot, in
his usual brusque yet business-like
way, and gave her till o'clock to
accept his offer. "Shure, Mr. Stewart,
a brewer from Albany, has offered me
$33, 900 for the property, and given me
as long as / want to think about 1t.
But told him he could have 1t for
$34, 900 If he was back here by - o'clock.
IL is now ten minutes to 3. Ye can
have it for $50, 900, If ye get back before
the brewer does.p The thought Of a
"breweryn in the neighborhood Of the
Grand Union hotel did the business.
Mr.. Stewart closed with Mrs. O'Flan-
agan on the spot.
