This little book Of verse is a worthy
follower of the author Songs of the

straight 10 the hearts of the people.
Stanton is essentially a, poet of the peo-
pie. a living refinement of Rohe-t Burns.
He is as much beloved in his Georgia
home as friend and companion by those
Who know him best as he 10 for his
quaint ard haunting melodies. Long be-
fore his songs made him known in the
world Of letters. he had Won an establish
cd face in The hearts Of GeorgianS by
his humorous and always good-natured
and charming writings in the papers. HIS
first songs We're exceedingly brief. hum
bic and tentative. In these before us he
rises to fuller and more strenuous notes.
You wonder Why the tears your eyes
should fill:
You whisper to your breaking heart: BE
s;illt.'
But the heart means with yearning I'M
sufficed-
Vague yearning. which the world can
never FILL
For women love but once; and II de-
That first, sweet love, they live unsatis-

a cross wherein their hearts are cruel

And this is .life-the life which we must
lead:
a life OF. dire distress and sorest need;
A life which longs, but vainly longs, for

OF Mean Streets
But although grim. its darkness is not
unrelieved. Grandfather Nat. the pro-
prietor of THE Hole in the Wall" is a
creation worthy OF Dickens at his truest
and most sympathetic. His affection for
his little grandson Stephen gives hui
manizins touch to the old tavern pro-
prietor and receiver Of stolen goods, and
finally wins him from the evil traditions,
OF his life. The plot is full of exciting
incidents and sensational situations,
handled with an art that makes one
think Of no one so much as of Stevenson.

bug; information which however ap-
parently trivial to the unscientiilc.
might nevertheless prove the saving of
crops of the value of many millions Of
dollars. AS Mr.. Ashmead explained, the
more complete a collection is, the easier
it is to answer such communications
with accuracy and dispatch. as there is
greater facility for identifying the specl-
men received with one classified and ar
ranged and available at a moments no
tice. Where. on the other hnd. litera-
ture on the subject has to be consulted,
ii Is sometimes necessary to consume
much time looking for the required de-
scription.
Communications of the kind instanced
are received almost daily at the Smith
sonian from scientists in Sweden, Italy,
Spain, England, Japan-in fact. all the
principal enlightened nations OF the
world. Besides. farmers all over this
country require to be told all about
certain bugs. while others. thirsting for
unlimited knowledge, want to know all
about all bugs; in answering the latter
species of inquiry many thousands of
volumes might bewritten. and then the
subject only begun. for new species and
new facts concerning known varieties
are turning up every day.
MIR. Ashmead dilated most interesting
ly on the beauty and Importance of the
study of the insect world, as he took
out tray after tray full OF specimens

the case might be. NO other depart

of the economy of nature, the wonder

varying forms. Everything is seen to
have its reason for existence.
