and the healthy vigorous side of everyday
life. In addition to fiction, there will be
practical and instructive articles; on hunt
ing, fishing and sport generally; on travel
end exploration, and all such subjects as
the irrepressible energy of youth delights
in A point of additional interest is that
the new Round Table will be published
simultaneously in London and New York.
The anonymous author of the 'Confes-
sions of a College Professor" in the No.
vember Scribner's, has this to say regard
ing the compensations of his calling: My
college duties are, to be sure, rather me-
chanical; it is about the same story year
after year, but l do not know that they
are more monotonous or any less interest
ing than those of the average minister, or
doctor, or lawyer or merchant. The col
lege has my best thought and ability, and
far the greater part of my time; think
render the institution full equivalent for
all Ii pays me, and something more. AT the
same time, l have to own that l do not
know where | could earn 5000 year as
easily and pleasantly as here, or where
that sum would represent so comfortable
living"

teresring SERIES Sent into the field as the
personal representative of Lincoln and
Stanton, rarely equipped by nature and
training for full and accurate observation,
and under instru ctions to let nothing sig
nificant escape him. either in men or move
ments-Dana saw what no other man or
men could possibly have seen. The papers
are to be illustrated from the recently COM
pleted government collection of civil war
photographs The magazine will also con-
tain three chapters from Mark Twan's
forthcoming book on his recent journey
round the world. They are the only portion
that will be given TO the public in advance
of the book itself, and are said to have all
of the old Mark Twain flavor, with some-
thing added.
