LITERARY NOTES.

"An Intra Mural view," a very ar
tistic procure, has been received from
The Curtis Publishing Company ,Phila-
delphia,publishers Of The Ladies Home
Journal. AS the title. indicates, the
booklet gives us glimpses of the in
teriors of the Journal s offices, and some
idea of the work carried on there The
main building, entirely occupied by
the editorial and business offices, was
designed by Mr.. Hardenbergb, the
architect of the Hotel Waldorf, New
York, and was completed in January,
1893. The exterior is attractive and
the interior elegantly appointed and
admirably planned. The numerous il
lustrations, showing the commodious
and we'll fitted offices, and accompany
ing text, giving US some insight into
the work in the different bureaus, re-
quiring a force appoximating four
hundred employees, indicate the won
derful success which The Ladies' Home
Journal has achieved in an almost in
credibly short time. The first number
was issued in December, 1883, so that
less than eleven years have elapsed
since Mr.. Curtis conceived the idea
which has developed into so vast an
enterprise. In this short time its merits
and steady improvement in all de.
partment have received such recog-
milton that its circulation has reached
the enormous average of about 100000,
the largest magazine output in the
world. The brochure also describes at
some length the work Of printing and
binding the Journal, which is carried
on in a separate building. IAN Intra
Mural View" will be sent to any one
who will address The Curtis Publish
ing Company, and inclose four cents
in stamps for postage.

Peculiar TO Itself.

Hoods Sarsaparilla is peculiar to
itself, in a strictly medicinal sense, in
three important particulars, viz; first,
in the combination of remedial agents
used; second, in the proportion in
which they are mixed; third, in the
process by which the active curative
properties of the preparation are Sc
cured, These three important points
make Hoods Sarsaparilla peculiar in
its medicinal merit, as it accomplishes
cures hitherto unknown. But it is not
what Hoods Sarsaparilla does, that
tells the story. What Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla has done for others is reason for
confidence that it is the medicine for
you. -

your correspondent that many years
ago some of the bourbon princes stayed

all night here in Jonesboro and were
the guests of David Deaderick, ESQ.
AS they Travelled from Mount Vernon
via Winchester and then down the
Shenandoah valley to Nashville, and
as Jonesboro is on the main road, the
one mostly travelled in that day from
Winchester, Va, to Nashville, Tenn,
there is every reason to believe that
King Louis Philippe and his two
younger brothers passed directly
through this place that summer, and
as towns along their route were few
and far between in that day, there is
every reason to believe they would
stop here over night, and may in all
probability have rested here day OF
two. And as Tennessee was then
State in the union and John Sewer, her
first Governor, was then living at Knox
vile, the capital of the new State, the
chances are that King Louis Philippe
had a letter of introduction from ex-
President Washington to Gov. Sewer,
and that the three princes called on
him.. s. M. in Chattanooga Times.
Some Notable Opinions on Co-Educa.
tiOn.
One of the most interesting topics of
the day is undoubtedly co.education,
and Demorest's Family Magazine, with
characteristic enterprise. has set before
its readers in the October number a
most excellent symposium on this i'm.
portant question. The contributors to
it are among the best known educators
of the country and comprise such
names as, David Starr Jordan, Thomas
s. Hastings, H. NJ. Mac Cracken, James
NJ. Taylor, Charles 81. Knox, Edmund
P. Platt, and s. S. Packard. AS all Of
these men have very decided opinions
on the question and are authorities on
educational matters, their views can
not fail to be interesting. cadet Life
at West Point" which appears in the
same number is we'll written and
entertaining sketch of the life of a
cadet from the time he enters West
Point until he is full fedged soldier
An excellent description of the school
and its surroundings is given and, as it
is all written by a cadet, it has the
charm of local color which only Que
intimate with the place can give; and
the article is also superbly illustrated.
"A Failure In Dress .Reform'' is a
sprightly and humorous narrative
showing some of the difficulties in the
way Of wouldbeprogressive Young girls
assuming masculine attire. i'How 10

so clearly written and so we'll illus
trated that no matter how far from
a teacher, one need not be ignorant of
the best method Of using this rather
romantic instrument. The contents Of
the magazine is further enlivened by
several notable pieces Of fiction; the
Home Art" department. tells of "Work
for October Evenings" the Santa
rian' discusses Comfortable Living"
Society Fads" and "Chat" are full OF
interesting talk on timely topics; and
other departments of the magazine all
contribute to keep this most excellent
periodical up to its usual high standing.

An Injustice TO Colonel Parsonss Memory


You are uniformly courteous to either

case there can be more than one) Of any
controversy and feel vei! sure OF being
accorded an audience.
In your Sundays account Of the brutal
murder of Colonel Henry c. Parsons, al
Clifton Forge. your correspondent stated
with little comment, that the letter Of
complaint received by General Manager
Stevens was unsigned, and conveyed the
impression that it was an anonymous at
tack upon tine charaC-er Of Goodman.
This Implication Is a grave injustice, en-
tirclv opposed TO the whole character OF
the Iamcntcd dead. He was never guilty
of nonymous-letter-W n the letter

and nothing else. No man possessing MS

sion for writing anonymously-be~id es'
