newspaper work to the rank Of litera-

the effect that newspaper work had al,

and that all the great writer's of the

+ William T. Stead is really a newspa-
per worker, although he confines him
self mostly to magazines and reviews.
His claim to newspaperdom lies in his
timeliness, his vigorous wording, his
quick insight. and the fac. that he deals
with people Of current interest.
Mr.. Stead's enemies call him q freak.
They say he is a hypnotlst, a fatallst,
has second sight, and they lay other re-
markab!e phenomena to his door. But
the fact remains that he is one OF the
most interesting writer's Of the day.

Ashe was type of the sanity woman
that the spirit Of Puritanism bred in
rural New England. Such women are
the living embodiment of the power
which has inspired whatever Is best in

living force amid the worldliness, the
materialism, the crudity. that have
threatened to overwhelm the people of
this yet young land, SO prematurely old.
In her face was look Of high unworld-
liness that makes the mystic, the inher-
itance from ancestors bred in faith i'm
possible without mysticism in the very
hbers Of the race. The heroic self f-denial,
the persistent belief, the noble fidelity
to the ideal which Is the salvation of q
nation, shine In such countenance,
and make real the high deeds Of past
generation, the narrowness of whose
creeds too often blinds us today to the
greatness of their character"
Here Is another passage worth quot

of the book: There are, even in this

botany is but another term for the
study Of hard names and Miss David
son has so ably gotten over this diff
Guilty and made the study of plant life
so attractive that IL one were to begin
over again botany would be in the list
Of flowers. The interest of the child Is
aroused in the most natural way and
the instant and formal memorizing of
difficult words and apparently unrelated
terms nowhere appears. To illustrate:
The very first chapter is about Some
Plants That Lead Easy Lives" Doesn't
that make you want to find out about
them at once. The very idea that some
plants are workers and some
idlers, just like human beings,
is so attractive. Then the author
tells about plants That Know How to
Meet the Hard Times" Some Plants
That DO Not Make Their Own Living" "
plants With Mechanical Genius;"
Social Flowers" and so the chapters go,
each with an attractive title. The cen
ter of interest is right here at home.
The plants are those that We have in
our gardens and on our hill sides; plants
that make our plains a carpet of wild
flowers. The Illustrations, which, by the
way, are by Alice c. Cooper and Mary F..
Lewis, are profuse and accurate, lending
greatly to intelligent comprehension.
The latter part of the book is supple
ment for the use Of travellers, which will
be found very helpful. A word should
be said for the excellent work of the

BOOKS AND THEIR MAKERS

is little promise of strong and permanent
government, for the masses will always
be ignorant. Progressive men and wo-
men do not go there and build themselves
into the community. We can look back
now and see that in our extreme south
ern states the mass OF workers were nec-
essarily Of a different type from the gov
erning race. and that this was a natural
and not a cruelty artificial, state of
things.
The problem is to find out what can
be done with the hot countries to i'm
prove their civilization. Must 1t not al
ways be more or less necessary that
there be castles? What is Englands 4

This is a great question, and the VOL

tions.
