The public school of this city has In
its library school reader published
in 1900. This book, 100 years old
furnishes an object lesson for a com
parison with school books OF to-day
In regard TO Typography and subject
M after there is nothing strikingly
different from a school reader Of the
same grade published recently. The
work contains the masterpieces OF the
old writers. johnson, Addison, Blair,
Pope, Milton, Young, Thomson,
Goldsmith, etc. The type used was
similar TO that OF the present time
and the punctuation differs Ii no way
from modern composition. The most
marked contrast between this old
work and books Of modern m6uufsc'
ture is in the material Of which they
are made and the anieh. The paper
of this old reader is yellow, eaTtly per
haps by age. 1t is OF poorer quality
than any used In school books at the
present time. The paper is very light
and porous with 40 sizing. There il
perfect uniformity iI the type
used throughout the book and there
are no pictures. Illustration in books
is of modern use and has attained TO
great perfection, This old book is
bound in cardboard and leather, Is
Xxi inches in size and nearly two
inches thick--comprises 800 pages and
weighs less than seven ounces. A

AS consequence Of Rev. McIntosh's
recent visit to the East, our COM
munity came very near losing one of
its most popular pastors and noble
minded citizens. In the course Of
his Eastern trip, Rev. Mcintosh
preached two Sundays in the Congre-
gational church Of Greenfield Hill, a
beautiful suburb OF Bridgeport, Conn.
The impression that lie made on its
people must have been deep and con-
vincing. He reached home on We'd
nesday of last week, and on Thursday
received a unamous call from the
church at Greenfield Hill. The in.
citation had many unusual ,attrac-
tions--the old-time richness Of the
East, the urgency of personal friends
and the charm OF the city itself. The
good pastor was Of two minds whether
to accept or decline. He has worked
in his present charge, without friction
aud with increasing popularity, for
six years His Christian influences
have become deeply rooted In the af-
fections OF his own people and of the
community at large. He has shared
intimately in the life of hundreds OF
our hoInes--in the pleasant cheer OF
weddings, the quiet sym patny OF sick.
rooms and the trying hour of death
and the thought OF severing all these
kindly relations was not pleasant to
dwell upon, either for the pastor or
his people. When he announced the
possibility of the change to his con-
gregation on Sunday evening, there
was no Joy in the voice OF the speaker,
and genuine regret In the hearts Of
his hearers. But the counsel OF a
few of his many loyal friends, has
helped US to win the decision. and
Rev. Mcintosh has definitely declined
the offer OF Greenfield Eill His de-
termination to stay here will bring
the deepest comfort to many homes
and many individuals. Confidence is
great thing it grows with sssocia,
tion and with years! and cannot be
thrown aside without struggle,
