As did Eden's sinless days;
May the months pass by you lightly
As the bees Ger wildrose sprays;
Nay no sullen care or sorrow
Print upon your brow scar;

As the thoughts Of angels are
MAY the love of friends caress you;
May God be your giide and stay,
And with faith unfatering bless you,
And with hope all fear allay
May your way be clean, ii narrow,
And with choicest blessings strewn;
May your heat be full OF music,

was born pension claim has been
made by a Michigan man. A
br other some twenty years older,
SC rved in the civil war and was re-
ported dead. Though the report
afterwards proved false, the shock
to his mother was very serious and
her next child, the present claim
ant, was born cripple and has
never had the use Of his lower

son why they should not be elected

now injected into the selection OF
this important officer. However,
the fact remains that the people
want to vo for their head school

UNCLE TERRY; A Story OF the
Maine Coast by Charles Clark
Mum. Published by Lee & Shep.
ard, Bostor, Mass. Price $3.50.
To leave no phase of life unex-
plored and unimagined, no country,
or cline, no people or time not
written about, seems to be the aim
OF our present day pen wielders, and
ii one wants to see under another
light, under new sky, and clothed
in new dress the strdnge mystery
OF our humanity, let him read I'm
Gle Terry.
A book has value according to
the nature of the subject, the capa-
city, and richness Of experience OF
OF the author, and the extent to
which he gives himself to Us
through his book. Judged by these
star dards "Uncle Terry" deserves
all the success that will undoubted-
ly attend it. The New England
character, with its environment OF
picturesque scenery, is fitted to be
the theme ol truest strength and
tenderness in story, and Mr.. Mum,
trained in the great school OF the
world" as he says of himself, and
knowing his native New England
As few men can, is doubtless better
qualified than any of those who
are regarded as orr masters OF
fiction, to present a truly popular
New England ,ovel. The great
strength of Mr.. Munn's work lies in
its complete naturalness. The
hamlet on the indented coast Of
Maine, the village amid the green
valleys of Vermont, and the high
pressure business and social life OF
Boston are all portrayed here with
absolute fidelity. The materials
are simple, as they should be,-ln
old light house keeper, waif from
the sea, young country lawyer,
poor in all save education, energy,
and his sister, the village school
teacher, an unscrupulous city at
torney. and the good hearted, lndo-
lent son Of a rich Boston merchant,
with his aristocratic mother and
sisters, these are all that are Of note
But under the skillful touch OF the
writer the leading character becomes
la personifcation of kindness anc
yankee shrewdness, whose quaint
sayings live in the mind, and who
wins the enduring love Of the read
Ter; the waif, sweet and beautiful, in
Produces an effectively handled mys-
terry; there developes love plo'
(which holds ones keenest interest
unlil the happy conclusion, and the
book closes with the hope that moth
ling will keep the fortunate ones
from repaying Uncle Terry for hi:
noble heartedness.
! While the story has a strength
an1 knowledge that shows the keer
man of affairs in the author ther'
lis running through the book tn
\ grace and tenderness OF the trul'
sympathetic admirer Of nature, anc
the tone everywhere is as pure anc
wholesome as the green fields anC
brooks, to all lovers of which thl
book is dedicated.
The style of the story is genuln
!, and penetrating and is well wort
consideration.
| 1t Is writtea with con siderable
ability and is in some respects
most attractive and thrilling nara
, tive.
1t is sparkling and up-to-date i
every way, the dialogue is crisp
Z aud there are enough complication
IN the story to make the book in
tcresting.
