Hard Colds.

People whose blood is pure are not
nearly SO likely to take hard colds as
are others.
Physiology goes into the reason.
Hoods Sarsaparilla makes the blood
pure, causing healthy action of the
mucous membrane and giving strength
and tone to all the organs and func-
lions.
This great medicine RECEIVERS the
system after a cold, as no other does.

The "Rudyard Kipling issue of the
Bookman (the London publication. OF
that name) contains d large number OF
portraits of the author and of places
connected with him-amongst others,
of his present home in Sussex--and of
pictures taken from his published
works. Mr. w Wilfred Written con-
tributes the accompanying letter press,
entitled. MIR. Kipling: Where Does

finest snoke-room yarn you ever
heard but it is no more; it does not

of course be taken to this dictum, but
it IS apparently sincere and is worth
reprinting for its own sake.

The Boston Transcript has the fol-

ing"
AS one reads some books the hand
goes out involuntarily to any scrap of
paper within a reach, and when the
last word has come a trail of book
marks blazes the passage of the
thought. THE Lost Art of Reading, "
after a single reading, bristles thus
with odd bits of paper marking things
to go back to and live with Il little
longer, but things one couldn't at the
time consider in full because of
anxiety to hear what more Mr.. Lee had

Goldsmith's house in London No.
Wine Office Court. Fleet street, where
he dwelt from 1851 to 1854, has lately
been oraced up by wooden crutches, in
order to prevent its falling down in
company with the house next door, but
preparatory to its own establishment.
1t was here that Goldsmith lived With
a relative of John NeWbery, his pub
Usher. The arrangement was that
Newberys man should continually
urge the not over diligent author to
produce copy. and the device was
more or less successful Here Gold
smith was visited by DR.. Johnson, who
is said to have dressed with immacu-
late neatncss on these occasions in or
der to set an example to his careless
friend-truly an amusing picture of
the untidy old moralst. In this house
Goldsmith wrote THE Traveller and
probably finished 1.-The Vicar of Wake
field" II is amazing how little the
average studious reader knows of the
works of this writer. beyond his fa
nous poem, novel and play, The De-
serted Village" "The Vicar of Wake
field" and She Stops to Conquer"
The Harpers say that when they an
nounced their Cunningham edition Of
Goldsmith's writings i'll twelve
octave volumes-eight of them Cold
smiths actual probationary of
their correspondents expressed sur
prise at the extent of the works. Four
out of the twelve volumes cover Cold
smiths Life and Times" that loyal
biography of John Forster's which in
yolved him in his quarrel with James
Prior over their respective property
in the facts of Goldsmith's career.
Forster dedica ted this Life to his
friend Charles Dickens in sonnet Of
which the last lines are:
Come with me and behold
That there is iiercer crowded misery.
In garnet toll and London loneliness
Than in cruel islands and the far-off sea.
This 'garret toll and London lone
liness" We're d portion of GoldsmithS
experience in the house in Wine Office
Court now doomed to early extinction.

Mr.. Kipling's home in South Africa

The last work done by the late Julian
Ralph, author and war correspondent,
who died IN New York the other day,
was for Harper's Magazine, and has
not yet been published. 1t consists of
Il number of articles on American sub
jects, undertaken for that magazine
and to be printed during the present
year. The first of these articles, en-
titled 'Thc American Tyrol.' will APP
pear in the March number of Harp
ers. Another paper, 10 appear later,
describes Il trip made by the author
through parts of New England in
company with tin-pedler. Mr. Ralph
had but recently returned from a trip
to Kentucky, made in the interests of
Harper's for the preparation of an
animated description of those lonely,
remote cabin Kentuckians who
seem to live quite apart from civiliZa-
ton. This will be illustrated by Les
ter Ralph. son of the author Mr..

thusiasm made all his work as valu-
able as it is interesting

they compare the possible results Of
their labors with those of business
