La thess days Of progress there is DE-
rnand for better means Of Illumination
than ever before. The dazzling briliizncy
Of the slsctns hight makes onr common
kerosene lamps as dim as tallos dips IN
the comparison This demand has been
fully met by the Introduction of the sun
Lamps They are necessarily made of
metal because the draft or chimney ex-
tends down through the center OF the
lamp. The wieks are five inches wide and
give light Of forty candle power, equal
TO three gas burners. These lamps were
brought out at the close Of last season, bat
the price was SO high-S6 eaeh--bui few were
sold. Owing to the enormous demand which
has sprung up, they are now produced at a
price within the reach of all, and sold for s.
in brass and Ss.5o in nickel. complete with
ten-inch porcelain shade. To persons trou-
bled with weak eyes or those who desire u
preserve their eyesight by means of a good
light, the Sun Lamp viii prove blessing.
The New Styles of Hanging lamps art
made of gold color solid bronze metal,
and trimmed with cut glass prisms and dec
Grated shades. The dome-shaped shades
look the best, but We imagine the angle OF
reflection from the cone shape is best for
throwing light down. These lamps are also
much cheaper than last year. They are now
sold at from So TO 81 each. Fine table
lamps are furnished with duplex or two
wick burners, giving double the light of the
single wick burners. There are many styles
of these lamps on exhibition, including solid
bronze and the popular hammered brass.

HOW HE TOOK 1T.
a Plaintiff Who Wanted to Serve /;
Summons Himself.

Summons Himself.
A firm of Grand Rapids lawyers was re-
Gently directed by client to commence suit
for the recovery of debt. The plaintiff
was disposed to cause the defendant all the
annoyance possible, and asked the lawyers
To fix it so he could serve the summons him.
self, adding 'I want to see how he'll take
it." The necessary papers produced and
given to the client who started off with an air
of great satisfaction and delight in anticipa-
tion of the humiliation to which he was to
subject the unlucky defendant. He soon re-
turned in highly excited and ''bunged-up"
condition, coat in tatters, both eyes black,
nose set over on one side, hat crushed, and
having the general appearance of one who
had seen grief. He had gone to the defend
ant, served the summons in an insulting
manner, aud so as to attract the attention of
by-standers, and then stood watching the
other triumphantly while he read the copy.
His curiosity as to chow he would take it,
was gratified. He took it by first giving the
server stinger under the left ear, and then
proceeded to ''mop the ground with him"
BY the time the unfortunate plaintiff was
released he had not bit of curiosity left.
When safely out of reach his fright was sue
ceeded by rage that was terrible to witness.
He ordered an immediate and relentless
prosecution and civil suit for damages,
though no amount of damages could at that
moment have compensated him. He ex-
pressed no wish to serve the second writ.

When the tide is at the full, it turns.
Our educational methods have been grow
ing in system and severity, if not in per
fection, for many years and the demands
upon the public have constantly increased,
until the necessities for grading have be-
come imperative, and the pecularities Of
the individual are almost entirely ignored
It would seem impossible to carry this
further, and any change now must be in
some other direction. At this crisis, one Of
the brightest and most fearless Of American
writer's comes forward with q strong argu-
ment against the whole system, q protest
against the grading and examining that
take SO much Of the vitality out Of the edu-
cation we are giving to the rising genera
ton. Edward EvererettIIale, i'm the No
vember number of the North dme7ic0n
RsCie1r, makes q plea for "Haf-Time in
Schools" which every parent and every
school board ought to consider seriously.
The old question, "Wherc are we, and
where drifting?' was never more forcibly
suggested than by another article in the
same number, that in which Prof. Gillian
discusses "The African Problem" The
facts that he gives as to the increase of the
negroes in the United States, their peculiar
situation and disposition, and the problem
they will force upon us in the near future,
call for the gravest consideration. The
other articles in this number are woman
as a Political Factor by Judge Robert c.
Pitman; Progress in Naval Armament, "
by Hobart Pasha, who thinks the United
States Government has been wise in not
constructing a costly navy; 'Fuendship in
Ancient Poetry by Principal j. c. Sharp;
