Daniel Boone,s House.

Daniel Boone's bones rest in his beloved
Kentucky, but the house which he bull:
for home and in which he passed his lasa
days is landmark near St. Charles, Mo-,
where it still stands in a good state of pre-
servation. In the latter days of the old
pioneers life he occupied the attic of the
house as both sitting room and workshop,
and busted himself making powder horns
as souvenirs for friends. Here, too, he kept
the cherry wood coffin he had fashioned
with his own hands. Not long before he
died he used to sit in the coffin several
times day "just to try the fit of it" as
one of his old acquaintance says. The
house was one of the first erected in St.
Charles county, and Indians watched its
building with interest. Chicago Inter

professor of physics in the University
of Notre Dame Qndiana). Last year
he gave a course of lectures, with
numerous experiments in the Catholic
university of America at Washington
d. c., on the subject of Physical Acous-
tics and It's Simpler Relations to the
Physical Basis Of Musical Harmony.
The lectures, thoroughly revised and
explained by many illustrations of SCI
entific apparatus and experiments, are
now brought out in book form. Prof.
Zahn is evidently at home in the field
of acoustics, and basis his lectures up
on the exhaustive researches of Helm
holtz and Keonig. The work is pecu
liarly interesting, as an example of the
tendency of modern musical study to
rest itself upon basis of physical sci
ence. By students of physics and by
musicians desirous of becoming better
acquainted with the science correlative
and fundamental to their art, this book
ought to be highly appreciated. The
style is clear and pleasant.

Distiiline Rose Perfumes =

We stopped before hahn to look at
distillery and rose field and were well
coined by the proprietor, who was also
landlord of the inn. Seats were put for
us behind the brazier, where it was not
little warm, and soon miniature cups
of coffee were presented to us by his rosy
checked wife.
In front of long shed six large chal-
drons stood over the brazier, and into
these vessels about q e100 worth of
roses were put with warm water. The
iron tubes through which the vapor es-
Eapes passed through long tin recep-
tacle shaped like a trough, which was
filed with cold water, and below which
large glass bottles stood to receive the

We were shown a small bottle into
which the essence just distilled had been
poured. The color is a rich, deep gold,
and the smell is strong, subtle and pene-
trating-pleasant for the first instant,
but soon producing a sense of giddiness
and oppression in the head. 1t affects
everything near it, and the perfume
clings tenaciously even in the open air.

a Soldering Metal for Aluminium.


An ingenious inventor in Norway claims
to have realized the much felt desideratum
OF soldering metal for aluminium. 1t con-
sists in combining cadmium, zinc and tin
mixed in substantially the following pro-
portions: Fifty parts cadmium, twenty
parts zinc and the remainder of tin; the
zinc being first melted in any suitable yes
sci, the cadmium is added to this and then
the tin in pieces-the mass to be well heat
ed, stirred and poured
The proportions of the various ingredi-
ents may be varied in accordance with the
use to which the substance is to be put.
Thus, where strong and tenacious solder
ing is required larger proportion of cad
MUM may be used; where great adhesion
is desired larger proportion of zinc would
be essential, and in case of an attractive
and durable polish being sought greater
per cent. of tin would be called for-New

Literary characteristics of the Year
Just Passed.
Some Notable Works of the Twelve
Months just Gone-Chat About
IAuthors and Their
Work.
BY L. BEHYMER.

The year just ended was marked
by the death of an unusual number
OF distinguished men of letters, it's
obituary roll including the supreme
name of Tennyson, the great names of
Whitman, Renan and Whittier, and the
important names of Woohner, Parsons.
Curtis, Freeman and Manning. 1t is
difficult to see how any year remaining
to the century can record so weighty a
list of deaths, and certainly no one of the
years already past can lay claim to such
melancholy distinction.
We cannot mention any extraordinary
development of literary activity last
year, and still cannot regard it as year
barren of good books, as there were
many of real merit and solid value. We
might enumerate few of them: In the
was Mrs. Wards David Grieve; and,
probably, next in order, Mr.. Hardy's
Tess of the d'Urbervilles, with the
anonymous story Calmire a quick Sec
ond. In historical novels, probably the
best was Mrs. Margaret L. Woods
Esther Vanhonorigh. Richard Harding
Davis has wooed and won the
public with his Van Bibber,
and The West from Car Window,
while the sea story of the year was Mr..
Stevenson's The Wrecker. In foreign
descriptive story, Mr.. Crawford's Don
Orsino is at the head. Mr.. Howells has
given us his best production this year
in The Quality of Mercy. In poetry we
find that beautiful garland of poems At
Shutdown, by Whittier, which although
perhaps not the best is probably very
near the top; comparing favorably with
this is Tennyson's The Foresters and
The Death of Aenone. Mr.. William
Morris gives Poems by the Way, and
Miss Monroe gives us the Commemora-
tioD Ode of the worlds fair opening, as
we'll as her Valeria. Mr.. Henry Nor
ley's English Writers ranks very highly
in the history of literature, and Mr..
Carlyle's Lectures on the History of
Literature, has also been published.
In travels, Mr.. Henry Norman's The
Real Japan is excellent, while Mr.. Wynn
per's Travels Amongst the Great Andes
of the Equator easily takes the lead.
In history we find Mr.. Fiske's Discov-
cry of America is the leader, closely
followed by Mr.. Besant's London, and
the new Eggleston Histories. Then we
might mention few more excellent
volumes. including A Day at Laguerre's,

The Taste for Sueets.

Yes, I've got every opportunity to study
human nature" said candy dealer to a
reporter the other day, fully as great an
opportunity as the reporter, the policeman
or the car conductor"
For instance" he continued, ''people
never buy opera caramels to take to the
theater or opera. They're soft and would
prove ruinous to gloves
School teachers never eat peppermints
and lemon drops at the same time They'd
as soon eat lobster salad and drink milk al
the same time. That reminds me of a
teacher | once had that lunched on angel
cake, tomato and caramels every noon.
The blase young man now carries to his
sweetheart dainty box of candied fruit in
place of the caramels, which were once all
the rage. Why, even the children are
changing in their tastes. They ask for the
best French mixture, which is about as
much French as am. Twas born in South

The keynote of the volume is sounded

terested," says the author, Gin theii
lives than in their writings. my object
being biographical rather than critical,
and if I have succeeded in interesting
the reader in these outlines of biogra-
ply, have done what 1 tried to do"
The most captious reader will acquit
Mr.. Stoddard of dullness, and the es.
says, interspersed with bits of delicate
comment and appreciation, are rather
more than ne claims for them. There
is a tinge of melancholy noticeable
throughout, not always inherent in the
theme; and Mr.. Stoddard hints in the
preface, that, ''for reasons which do not
concern the reader" he leans rather to-
ward the poets who have endured for
tunes slings and arrows, than toward
those who have borne their laurel gaily.
Three or four of the names treated had
certainly no reason to bewail their lot
notably Joyous Monckton Mines, man
who, as Landor aptly said, warmed
both hands before the fire of life." Mr..
Stoddard's essays are pleasant reading,
and the volume furnishes, in compact
form, facts not easily accessible else
where.
Each year we notice an increased de-
sire in Sunday school teachers and the
more advanced pupils to obtain better
knowledge and understanding of the
lessons for the year which they expect
to teach and study. One of the most
valuable assistants in this noble work is
the commentary on the international
lessons, entitled Peloubet's Select Notes,
compiled and arranged by Rev. F. N.
Peloubet, D. D., and M. A. Peloubet. 1t
is explanatory, illustrative, doctrinal
and practical; has numerous illustra-
tions, maps, pictures and chronology
of the Old Testament, chronology of the
acts, suggestions to teachers and many
library references. This year the studies
commence in the book of Ezra, taking
up Nehemiah, Esther, Job, Proverbs,
Ecclesiastes and the minor phrophets
and the acts of the Apostles and the
epistles. The first quarter is devoted to
the subject of Israel after the captivity.
An excellent map of Jerusalem
and the plan of the temple is given,
likewise complete map and diagram
of St. Pauls journeys and the kingdoms
of Judah and Israel, including the lands
of the captivities. Such distinguished
authors as Lyman Abbott, Prof. Blake,
Canon Cook, Prof. Henry Drummond,
Archdeacon Farrar, Archbishop Leigh
ton, Prof. George Rawlinson, Dean STAN
ley and Bishop Taylor are quoted ex-
tensively. 1t should prove great help
to all Bible students and be mariners

will telegraph the brain that there is q
feast before it such as it has never been
permitted to regale itself with in years
previous.
We cannot but mention first in new
books of the week neat little booklet
published by the Arena Publishing COM
pany entitled Songs, by Meth Boyce,
illustrated by Ethelwyn Wells Conrey.

Song shows the author to be in sympa-

pathy. 1t breathes perfume of nature
which floats through the brain and
softly steals over the senses until the
whole soul of the reader is in unison
with the subject, and as we seem to
hear the notes of the meadow lark as it
scars to meet the days first CLEAN
the earth, half waking from out her
slumber, holds her breath to bark, and
these flowers of flame fuse the fire of
both golden earth and golden sun. And
then the voices of flowers, birds, earth
and sun all unite in one great orison.
and we turn the pages until we stop at
the last poem, A Sunset.
We then realize that the scene has
changed, and from the sullen mask
overhead the sun has fled, and, as we
look far across the shuddering sweep of

mists meet the marshland, and as we

like spears CLINT for an instant little

the day is done and night closes over all
like gloomy, dismal pail, and as we
close the book-silently and thought
fully-we realize that one of the most
pleasant hours of our life has been spent
in reading this charming and pleasing
little volume.

DIR. Doyle's story of The Great Shadow
is hardly more than novelette, in size,
but it deals with one of the greatest of
historical events, with the final over
throw of Napoleon and the end Of the
great European war. The author even
takes us to Waterloo, which is rash
venture for any novelist after Hugo and
Stendhal. The ''ereat shadow" OF the
title is, OF course. the shadow that Ma
poleon cast over Europe. The chief
character of the story is the French
refugee one Of Napoleon's officers
who finds shelter on Scotch farm dur
ing the Elba period, and who takes with
him, on departure, the heroine Of the
tale. The story is spirited and interest
