fectionate voice, which she only used on
rare occasions. ARE you we'll up with
your Christmas work?'
Pretty WE'LL" he sighed, as he put a
period to poem which had almost given
him nervous prostration. 'Why do you
ask"
Because. DEAR I'm afraid you are un-
dermining your health, and want you
to take recess and write me a short
story to pay for my new dress, a couple
of poems for my hat and gloves, a good,
stirring campaign song that will bring
in enough for a ton of coal, and one or
two of those darling love poems for some
lard and a sugar-cured ham: and ham,

To tho Point.

A very sensible man called upon Ian
Maclaren recently He was tall and
thin and alert. and followed his card SO
quickly that Ian Maclaren had barely
time to read it before his visitor was in
the room. Then the visitor spoke as fol-
lows:
my name is Elijah K. Higgins, and
am busy man. You are also busy and
have no time to fool away. Four days is
all I can give to the United Kingdom.
and wished to shake hands with you.
Goodbye. I am off to Drumtochty'
He left the room swiftly, but the novel;
list caught him at the front door. Asked
If he knew where Drumtochty was. Mr..
Higgins replied:
Guess do. Got the route in my
pocket-northwest from Perth. N. b.

AS decided upon, the WOman'S
club held the special business session
Wednesday and will continue to do so
until all special business, such as the
clubhouse, Incorporation, etc.. are de-
cided. Few, very few, members appeared
on time, but came in singly all through
the hour devoted to the special meet
ing.
Nothing definite has yet been done in
the Incorporation matter, or was not
Wednesday. The committee had a meet
ing Thursday. however. and everything
is going on swimmingly. It was found
that trustees would have to be elected
before incorporation would be complete.
So II was the number decided upon, and
they will be elected in a week or two.
The regular meeting was opened as
was the special by Mrs. Buzzo, first vice
president, who will act while Mrs.
Wethey is away. A meeting of the art
department with Mrs. E. w. Shively,
S37 West Granite street, Monday at 2:3O

described his first philosophical work
which, owing to its fragmentary condi-
ton, was never published. 1t showed

gion and PHILOSOPHY, and the change in
them which afterward took place. OF
this Mrs Flood said:

with list OF his best works.
Schelling. she said, was closely allied
with Fchte. whose philosophical studies
he directed. She spoke of his essays on
philosophy. OF his work in the university,
Of his intimacy with such men as Goethe
and Schiller. She spoke Of his romantic
treatment of the relations between mind
and nature.
In closing she said: "Schelling's syS-
tenn of philosophy was decidedly pathe-
istic. He denied the personality of God,
and believed that God and the universe

ency which indicate that he was not sat-
isfied with his own results. He called
his later speculations, based on myth-
ology and revelation, positive philoso-
ply, and the former, negative phfloso-
ply. Il
Whatever opinion one may form of
the total worth of Schelling as a philQe-
, opher, it cannot be denied that his place
in German literature is assured. AS he
himself said: He happened to turn a
path in the history of thought ~

a talk was absent, it left vacant space
on the program. Mrs. Young, chairman
of the progress committee, announced
that she would call on each member to
tell her special hobby looking toward the
betterment of civic conditions and mu-
nicipal reforms.
This led to most interesting discus
sion. Several spoke of the public play
grounds and the dire need for such in
situations. Mrs. Green Majors advanced
the idea of winter gymnasiums. such as
could be put up in buildings, small ones,

the club could help in. 'e -

that mothers come to the schools and

The condition of the poor farm was
