LITERARY NOTES

Herbert Spencer, Rudyard Kipling,
Robert Louis Stevenson, A. Conan
Doyle and Octave Thanet will all con-
tribute to the March McClure's Maya
zine, making the number one of the
most distinguished in its list of con
tribntors ever issued by any magazine.
Each successive number of The Book
of the Fair, by Hubert Howe Bancroft,
let's us more and more into the plan of
the work, which is such while avoiding
too lengthy description, as to cover the
entire ground with sufficient detail,
and present in permanent form all the
characteristics of the great Exposition.
Part Six has been received and it GER
tainly surpasses all others, not only is
the descriptive part superb but the
engravings are finer than ever.

Good News about Alma College.

The first church of Saginaw, which
has done SO much for the College,
showed last Sunday that it was mot
weary in well doing" 1t completed
what it began last year. 1t established
permanent scholarship by the gift OF
$500. This will be invested at 6 per
cent. and only the income will be used.
But the income will be sufficient to
furnish free tuition to some student
while the College stands. On what
basis the student is to be chosen has
not as yet been determined. 1t will
probably be merit Of some kind. What
a splendid investment this is for. all
time. A new departure was also taken
by the Presbytery of Saginaw. On
Monday evening it decided unanimously
to- make Alma College the place for the
training of local evangelists. The fac
ulty of instruction for this purpose is
as follows: In Systematic Theology,
Rev. w. f. Jones, Is. D.; in English
Bible and Homileties, Rev. A. +.
Bruske, d. D.; in Church Polity, Prof.
j. w. Ewing, a. M. Much is expected
from this addition to the work of the
College. 1t will bring students from
different parts of the state and the
the country here for the purpose of di-
rectly studying for the ministry. Let
them come. The more the merrier.

years, where she spent her early school
lays, loved and loving all her school
mates, often spoke of them i'm her lasl
sickness, had planned presents to send

many sorrows but bore them with pa
thence. She leayes a father, mother

last hours:
THE DYING GIRL.
Oh clasp me in your arms, mother.
Once more fain would rest
This weary, aching head upon
Thy true and faithful breast.
Oh, gently hold my feeble form
Unto thy throbbing heart
And on my brow imprint one kiss,
Dear mother, ere we part.
/ feel that life is waning fast,
Soon will its pains be DER;
They'll bear me TO the lone church yard,
You'll see my face no more;
But donot weep when am gone
God knoweth what is best;
/ shall be free from sorrow then
Among the pure and blest
/ DO not fear to die, mother,
And lie beneath the sod,
My body only then shall sleep,
My soul will be with God.
But would have thee plant some flowers,
To yield a sweet perfume
Into the gentle breeze that blows
Above my lowly tomb.
And when above that quiet spot,
Bright stars their vigils keep,
You'll GENE and knell upon the mound,
But mother do not weep.
Ny spirit will be near thee then
And God will hear thy prayer;
He'll guide thee safely to life's close
And bless with kindly care.
Sweet mother, am weary now;
surely I'm going home,
Methinks see bright angel forms.
They softly whisper come"
But we will not be parted long,
For soon an angel band
viii bear thee from this world of woe
To that pure peaceful land.

Stone and William Dougherty believed
that Chicago was a good place for 1

Ruslkin's Methodicalness.

Never has a man been more method
ical in his work than Professor Ruskin,
nor more precise in obedience to the
rules he has laid down for his guidance.
His working hours have always been
from in the morning until noon, and
en- no account whatever would he ex-
coed the limit. Within those five daily
hours has all his work been produced
books, lectures and business, public and
private correspondence. Work in the
afternoon has always been by himself
forbidden, unless it took the form of
reading. His earlier works, of course
were written at Herne or at Denmark
Hill or while ON tour on the CONT
nent. His later ones have been wrought
in great part at the flower decked table
of his study, overlooking Coniston lake.
A wonderful room, that long study of
his, with his Turner's upon the walls
and ranged in ranks in the great Turner
cabinet upon the floor, with its book
cases of wonderful missals and manu-
scripts and early black letter books and
the original manuscripts of a half dozen
of SCOTS novels, with its superb Lucca
della Robbia Virgin and Child over
the fireplace at one end and the mineral
ca binet at the other. With what pleas
