"IDYLs OF OLD NEW ENGLAND"

"Idyls of Old New England" by
Clarence Hawkes., is beautiful book of
poems, showing a great love of nature
and natural life. The book shows great
spiritual wisdom too. 1t is just full of
good thoughts that it would be well for
humanity, if they thought more about.
There is force, sincerity and strength
about the poems that appeals to all
hearts. Mr.. Hawkes. is not poet just
to tickle the fancy, but one with mes
sage for mankind, which he takes right
to the heart of his fellow men. He
gives us many beautiful pictures of
country life, and takes us back to our
early days. Seldom does one find such
a delightful book of poems, so fresh,
vigorous and strong. The book is most
beautifully illustrated, with seventy illus
trations Of country scenes, by R. Lionel
De Lisser and Bessie w. Bell, and it is
a rare work of the book makers art.
It is printed on heavy enameled paper,
elegantly bound and with very pretty
cover design in gold.

NEBRASKA AT THE FAIR.

Is the St. Louis Exposition going
to be just another appearance Of the
same displays that have figured at all
the others? Will we go there to see the
same old Midway, the fountains and
electric lights, eat the same lunches and
hear the same bands? Will California
send her fruit, Oregon her long saw
logs, Colorado her minerals, Florida her
palms, Philadelphia her liberty bell?
And will we find in the Nebraska ex-
hibit merely long corn stalks, glass jars
of wheat, canvas-covered hams and
piles of sugar beets Everybody has
seen these things until they are no
longer amusing or instructive.
This Exposition seems not to have
been planned on the lines Of a county
fair. It is said to be mainly historical
in it's intentions-designed to commemo'
rate the events of the last hundred
years in the Great West. Why should
Nebraska hesitate as to the character
Of her display? No other state is so
intimately connected with the filling up
of the Louisiana Purchase territory the
highway to the promised land led

LEWIS AND CLARK.

Ninety-seven years ago Captains
Lewis and Clark very properly spent
Sunday the 27th, in deeds of humanity
and mercy. "The man who had the
pleurisy was blooded and sweated, and
we were forced to take off the toes of
the young Indian who was frost bitten
some time since.'
Tuesday the 29th, "By heating a
quantity of stones we hoped to warm
the water in the boat and thaw the
surrounding ice. but in this we were
disappointed, as all of the stones on
being put into the fire cracked into
pieces. "
Wednesday the 30th. "The morning
was fair. but afterwards became
cloudy. Mr.. Laroche, the trader from
the North West Company, paid US a
visit, in hopes Of being able to accom-
pany us on our journey westward, but
this proposal we thought it best to
decline.''

GROVER CLEVELAND.

Cleveland, as a statesman, will be re-
membered as the man who stopped
things. He checked abuses; he pre-
vented bad men from accomplishing their
schemes he warded off impending Ca
lamity he reduced revenues and saved
taxes; he stayed the ebbing tide Of
public credit he throttled anarchy; he
stopped foreign ACKNOWLEDGEMENT on the
American continent. Always he was
the safety valve. He brought no new
doctrine to the people; he had no theory
of government-merely an ideal of
duty for the hour. He founded no in
stitution; in the political life of his
time he constructed nothing. He will
be remembered as one who every hour
of the working day did what he
thought was exactly right, and who
never attempted to guide the current of
the public business, but always to see
that the business was wisely and hon
estly done. He was modest, indus
trious public servant, who lived so closely
the motto, GA public Office is public
trust" that people came to believe that
he invented it-which he did not. His
name was never linked with any policy,
and no law on the statute books of his
country is known as Cleveland's law.
He tried to efface his personality, but it
was so strong and distinctive and pun
gent with masculinity that it dominated
everythinghe did in spite of his aversion
to public politics. Yet he will never
be hero, because he did not live a
dramatic life. He must remain to pos
terity disembodied spirit, an ideal of
honesty bearing a mans name-the
symbol of national inspiration toward
public virtue.-Wm. Allen White in the
February McClure's.

BRYAN ON BELMONT.

Another Lesson" is the title of
Mr.. Bryan's leading editorial in this
weeks issue of his Commoner. 1t is
solemn lesson, and Mr.. Bryan i'm
parts it with due solemnity. 1t comes
Of the "defeat of Perry Belmont in a
strong democratic district" and that
calamity, says Editor Bryan, "ought
to show the eastern democrats the
folly of nominating for national posi-
tions men who are known to antago-
nize democratic principles -
Singularly enough Mr.. Bryan uses,
in speaking of Perry Belmont's s defeat.
almost the identical words employed
by most of the eastern and many Of
the western and southern democrats in
referring to the two great, and many
smaller, defeats sustained by their
party since it called Mr.. Bryan to the
front and center. These great masses
of men, who profess allegiance to the
democracy of Jefferson and Jackson,
think that the bitter experience of
their party under Bryan and with his
allies ought to "show the folly of
nominating to national positions men
who are known to antagonize demo-
cratic principles.
Why should the most eminently de.
feated politician in the United States
"a politician who has been ponder
ously set down upon as presidential
candidate in two campaigns, who has
been refused the endorsement of his
own precinct, city, and state since the
last of these defeats. and under whose
leadership his party has practically
gone out of business in the north
why should such monument of de-
feat pitch into Perry Belmont on ac-
count of his misfortune? And, finally,
why does Mr.. Bryan ignore the fact
that it was Mr.. Richard Croker, gold
democrat, who was the architect Of
Belmont's discontinue Washington

Trading on the Niger.

Arecent traveller IN the Niger writes:
= was anxious to buy some fruit from
a native oma who came down to the
sh,p, and to tiis end i produced a
handful Of coppers which l had
brought out from England. I first
showed her five, then six, seven and
eight, but she pushed them all aside
In a most unceremonious manner.
More by way Of a Joke than anything
eise, | then produced a three penny
piece, which she at once accepted, Civ.
Ing me In return just twice az much az
u had asked for my eight coppers. 1
also discovered that she had a great
partiality for white glass bottles. I
mappened to have about half a dozen
empty soda water bottles, for which
6ne gave me the same number of eggs.
1afterward found that any white glass
bottle had this purchasing power al,
over Nigeria. The natives send them
70 Bida, where they are melted and
made Into rings about three or four
inches in diameter, to be worn either
as armlets or anklets."
