"Sclections from the puplie speeches and
writing from Abraham lincoln" by l.. r.
Chiuenden.
The Hon Lucius r. Chittenden, formerly
Registrar Of the Treasury, has made judi
oious collection Of the best speeches and writ
ings Of Abraham Lincoln, which contain
among others classics the famous Gettysburg
address. Among the books published on or
about Lincoln. there is still distinct place
which this volume fills. All the important
public speeches and classic utterances OF
Lincoln have been gathered together in one
compact volume so as to present them In a
convenient and complete form.
Il need scarcely be said that these speeches
and orations Of Lincoln are full Of historic in
terest and are also Of great literary value
The noble sentiment which pervaded al
I.neoln's acts apd words is calculated to con
serve in US the principles Of patriotism and
noble citizenship. and as stimulating these
principles in American readers 1t can be seeI
that the plan upon which this book Is based
carries its own commendation. There is

CDR. GRAY's QUEST. +"

This is another novel ofNew England life
by Francis II. Underwood, L. L. D., author
Of "Quabbin", "The Poet and the Man" +"
Builders OF American Literature" etc, ,ect.
DIR. Underwood had been engaged, for some
time before his death, upon work Of fiction
which he meant to be the erowning effort OF
his life. and which he completed but few
days before passing away. This work, which
is entitled "Dr. Gray's Quest. is now pub
lished both in this country and Great Britain.
The local color nj books like "Quabbn"
stamps them at once as the work Of close
observer Of life and character. The vivid des-
criptons Of old.time scenes, incidents, and the
accurate portrayal Of picturesque characters
that are fast reeeding from the stage of life,
will long be remembered by the. readers Of DIR.
Underwood's books.
Is not only thoughtful informing book,
but a novel Of unusual power. The character
of Mercy Starkweather is admirably conceived
or, rather, observed; for II is a typical Yankee
character, and developed with great ingenuity
and judgment. The other characters win ouI
affection or inspire reprobation as they are
developed.
The story Of DIR. Gray, and his search for
proof Of the innocence OF Florion's father. has
deep interest; and the domestic life Of
Little Canaan is another of those historic pict-
ures Of New England for which Mr.. Under.
wood was famous. The book will take high
rank among works Of fiction. and is worthy oi
the reputation Of its lamented uthoL

SAN FRANCISCO NEWS LETTER.

The papers actually are tiresome with the
reports about Corbett and Fitzsimmons.
The latest news is that Mr.. F. wants to
fight MIR. c. in private room for the sIo.o
stake. In the names OF all the Saints in the
calendar, OF all decent law abiding citizens,
let them go at It in private with bare knuckles
and smash, chew, bite, slug, uppercut, and
bruise each other until both are unconscious.
Corbelt has made 100000 through his ds>-
teriiy with his fists, and isOpen to add to his
bank account. Every pugilist is a blackguard,
an animal, and sensualist. Corbett deserted
good and virluous wife to marry hoyden,
and there is more respect for good old John l..
Sullivan to-day, with all his dlunks. than for
the so.calltd champion.

THE WOMAN WHO DISCOVERED
PADEREWSKI.

The Polish actress. Nine. Modjeska. is ac-
credited by Henry +. Finek in The LOCKER
On with the discovery Of the genius of her iel.
low eountyman, Paderewski. She met him
at summer resort, and described him as "a
polished and genial companion; man OF
wide culture; OF witty, sometimes biting,
tongue; brilliant in table talk; a man wide
awake to all matters Of popular interest, who
knew and understood the world, but whose
intimacy she and her husband especially
priced for the elevation Of his character and
the refinement OF his mind" The suspicion
naturally arises that it may have been due
largely to the sympathetic encouragement Of
the famous Polish actress that PadeTewski
gave up the drudgery ofteachng, and went to
Vienna to prepare himself for the career OF a
concert pianist under the guidance Of his
famous eounuyman LeschetiIlki, who may be
safely asserted to have shown himself, next to
LisEt, the most successful trainer of pianists.
Mr. Fnek remarks that grief has ever been a
f,rtililer OF genius, Paderewsk married pen.

year afterwards, leaving a son, IA paralytlc,

HOW To LOSE FLESH.

The testimony OF one who has suffered and
been redeemed is recorded in Harper's
Bazaar.
After much study and looking about she
determined upon :regmen. She instantly
gave up sugar in tea oTcolfee, and milk at any
time. For two months she took for breakfast,
luncheon, and dinner only beefsteak and toast
and now and then spinach and lettuce; always
oranges, oranges in plenty. She drank with
this clear coffee or tea. Sometimes she TOOK
claret. She limited the amount Of water,
taken through the day to one quart, or at
most three pints. Some Of this she drank hot
before or after meals. Oflen she squeezed
the Juice Of lemon in It. When the two
months were over and the flesh had begun to
diminish she ate other vegetables and fruit
corn. peaches. celery, but never any vegetable
that grew underground, potatoes, onions, par
ships, tumip, or beets. She never ate-and
this was her most important rule--any-
thing iermenting in character, any pears
plums, grapes. or sweets. Because bread has
fermenting quality in it, she always tested
il dry. Pudding she never touched, sauces
nor cake. fany food led to Aatulency in
form she knew at once il wasa food to be
avoided. By.and-by after the first few
months, she allowed herselfnow and then an
occasional sweet or an ice, but never as a
habit.

nevertheless, in our prostrated condition,
wish to call attention to few unimporant,

he says Of the editor Of the Tribune, that" his

and becoming prominent in the politics OF

taken. No one connected with the Tribune

mechanics: pictures from artists, flowers from
florists gardens; and all that is attractive and

artistic sense can be luxuriously gEatihed, and
any original notion can be carried out with

always dress prettiest for those whom they
love best. and home gowns should be the
