In THE recent sudden demise of
Senator Plumb, of Kansas, a man
is taken from the world that the
country can i'll afford to lose, a
man for many years in the public
service, and generally recognized
as leader in the legislative affairs
of the nation; one seemingly with
long lease of life, yet suddenly
stricken down. An indcfatigablc
worker and an earnest devotec to
public interests is no more. Surely
we know not what a day may
bring forth.

Dickens Pet Daughter.
The Great Novelist's Fayorite ssMamie''
to write of her Father.

TO write or her Father.
Pretty ''Mamie" Dickens was al
ready considered by those who knew
Charles Dickens best to be the novel
lists favorite daughter. TO none of
his children, perhaps, was Dickens
more affectionately attached, and the
"pet daughter saw much of her
father under all circumstances. When
even the dogs were chased out Of the
novelist's study, Mamie was allowed
to stay. The daughter is now Il full.
grown woman, living quietly just out
side of London. For the first time
since her fathers death, Miss
Dickens has been persuaded to write
of him whom she knew SO we'll. Dur
ing 1892 there will be published IN
The Ladies' Home Journal, of Phila.
delphia, series of articles by Miss
Dickens ulfder the attractive title of
sMy Father as l Recall Him." Fortu-
nately for the thousands who will
read what she writes in this series,
Miss Dickens has a retentive memory,
and she made copious notes during
her fathers lifetime. She will tell in
this series everything she remembers
of her father; how he educated his
children; his family life and his per-
sonal habits; how he wrote his famous
books; his love of flowers and ami
mails; how Christmas was spent in the
Dickens household; how the novelist
romped with his children; the famous
people who came to the Dickens
home, and his last years and closing
days. No articles ever published
have in them so much promise of
telling the world things which it has
never known of Dickens. and Miss
Dickens's story of her fathers life
will be eagerly looked for in thous-
ands of homes where the name of
Dickens is like household word.
