SCRAP BOOKS.

O. the last day of the year 1885 a
woman died in Chicago who, after a
long life of usefulness, was, at her
death honored by long articles about
her life and good works, in every daily
paper in the city.
She was a cousin of Ralph Waldo
E nerson and sister to Prof. Joseph
Emerson, OF Beloit, Wisconsin.
An acquaintance, also, intimately
with her, told me many interesting
things of her life, and one thing which
specially interested me was this: Dur
ing her long life of nearly eighty years
she had made it a practice to cut out
every article that interested her in
papers and magazines. These che
classified and arranged in scrap books,
under such heads as poetry, romance,
religion, deaths, marriages and local
events, music, the drama, books and
book criticism, art, geology, botany ,
biography, anecdotes, travel, the diff
ferent royal families Of E lrope, the
presidents, politics, etc., etc. AS an
example, my friend told me TIT the
lives OF the royal families of Europe is
wonderfully complete and interesting,
reaching over a period of sixty years,
with occasional articles which treated
of earlier Europe, and this was one
book from a collection of over a hun
dred. Indeed, it is thought to be one
of the best collections of It's kind in the
world.
She was a woman of vast culture
and had great opportunities for max
ing her collection, but when che COM
menced her work newspapers and
magt zines were not so numerous as
now.
How many of US might make a very
nice collection in the course OF our
lives. Many Thugs not so interesting
now would be highly priz ID by the
grandchildren of the present genera
ton.
What a complete history Of the times
in which we live might be made, a
treasure to ourselves while we live, a
precious heirloom to children after
us-MaYguerite Lyudith.

five out OF every six professional men
in the large cities are addicted to the
tobacco habit in some form or other.
A habit, once formed, becomes second

There are thousands of men who
