AMERICAS
FIRST
AND SWEETEST
STORY
COURTSHlP
OF MILES STANDISH
(Ne,o York American

BY long odds the handsomest
holiday book of this season or
any other season is the splen-
didly artistic edition of Henry
Wadsworth Longfellow's famous
poem, 1.-THE Courtship of Miles
Standish," embellished and
beautified by more than forty
full-page illustrations and near
ly fifty original drawings, many
of them in colors and all of them
the best works of that matchless
artist and illustrator, Howard
Chandler Christy, whose art
productions are more genuinely
admired, more highly priced
and commented on than those
of any other known illustrator.
The subtle and irresistible
charm with which Mr.. Christy's
matchless creations invest the
text; his delicate, wizard-like
pictorial Interpretation of the
hidden beauty sentiment, sweet
ness, purity and fascina alton
lurking between Longfellow's
wonderful lines; his remarka-
bly, displayed capacity for find
ing and revealing hitherto un-
known and unsupported heart
throbs of sentiment and kindred
emotions, luxurious beauties of
scenery and locality, heretofore
concealed beneath the surface
and within the construction of
each individual line of this
great poem-these are the quail
tiles that are worth while and
that compel us to assert that
this especial edition of the mas
terpiece of Americas sweetest,
dearest and tenderest poet rep
resents distinctly and forcefully
Mr.. Christy's greatest achieve
ment.
Had this artist never drawn a
line before this book appeared,
had he been unknown and un-
chronicled, and yet have pro-
duced these illustrations, they
would have sufficed for his
fame, instantly made his repu-
tation and raised him to the
high plane of artistic perfection
he now occupies.
II is impossible for the re-
viewer to do justice to this mer-
itorious publication. Even with
that enviable qualification of
sufficient space to devote to ex-
plotting its attractions, it would
be impossible to depict the pleas
ure and qualification that inva-
riably follow the turning of this
books pages. Each page of the
poem is perfectly printed on fine
handmade paper over an appro-
pirate design in unobtrusive
tints. The effect is charming.
In having produced the finest
of all this seasons holiday
books, the publishers, The
Bobbs- Merrill Company, have
shown their usual commend
able enterprise. They are to
be commended by every lover
of pure literature, artistically
presented and alphabetically
decorated and embellished.

terial, worldly existence, with its con-
slant round of toll and care, coupled
with only modicum of pleasure.
At such a time the words go forth
and stand on the mountain top before
the Lord" appeal to us with a wonder
full force. Get thee out of the slough
of despair, out of the valley where
dwell the narrow and the evil minded,
and stand on the heights Of the ideal
life. with the great and the good, be-
fore the Lord. This ideal fortifies the
soul, brushes aside the brooding care,
drives away the lowering clouds, and
sends ray of sunshine into our dark
surroundings. We begin to feel that
what we have lost Is not all Of life,
there are still health, happiness and
fortune in store for us; that the sea is
never drained; that new friends can
be made in place Of the old; that all
truth and justice, all appreciation and
sympathy are not destroyed that new
love can grow even from the grave of
dead affection. The ideal gives new
zest to life, new halo to our sur
roundngs. 1t spells new opportunity
and undying hope.

THE ELECTRIC POWER.
Work to be Resumed in This City
Next Week.
Yesterday Mr.. Broiley. the local
manager of the new power company
that is heading for Carson. arrived
here to look over the field and see
what could be DONE, The late storm
has set matters ack a little and until
settled weather arrives, it will be i'm
possible for the company to proceed
as rapidly as desired
He stated that the poles and wires
have been received, also local wire
for this city and other material that
will be necessary in carrying out the
work. He believes that next week
active work will be resumed. and that
within another thirty days the COM
pany will be supplying this city with
all Of the power and lights that the
city can desire. The late suspension
of work was not wholly due to the
bad weather; but more on account of
the scarcity Of material, which has
been delayed or the railroad many
weeks. AS this Is now on hand there
is nothing to hinder the progress of
the undertaking.
