The bride heard slow wheels come
up the path from the lake after dark,

had died because of his love for her.

Conversation Club.

In order 10 give wider range TO the subjects
discussed by cur young friends of the Converse
tion Club, the Editor gave, among other topics,
that of Popular Education and Mixed Schools:
are they Beneficial in their Effects upon the
MassesI" The subject is one of vital import
and involves question destined to play very
important part in American politics The
friends of the public schools are as yet in the
great majority in this country, but the assail-
ants are determined and aggressive, and it is
very important that the bright minds of
the young people of the Club begin
to study and investigate the matter
for themselves. We do not wish to anticipate
what may be said, and are glad one of our fair
Western girls begins the discussion in SO spir-
tied manner. Now, let Us hear all sides
fully and fairly. Let Us hear all that may be
said both for and against the education of the
masses. Comparisons by countries, by sections
and by periods Of history win help every one
TO clearer understanding of the case. This
is a noble subject with which 10 begin the
New Year. Let US hear from many othera.

Our Government can no longer be said to be
an experiment. One hundred years of success
ful existence have established it as a permanent
institution. The magnificent conduct of the
people during the late election proves their
patriotism, and the wisdom of our Constitution.
Our immense commercial interests also furnish
convincing proof. We know of no better illus
tration of the success attending honorable and
able business methods than the firm OF D. NJ.
