THE CENTURY IN Ioo5.
IT WILL BE NECESSITY IN EVER
 HOME WHERE PEOPLE THINK.

To read the plans of The Century for the year 1905 is, with most persons, to decide to own tbe magazine, for the list of artists and writers is more attractive than ever before. Three serials arouse special interest,": "San- dy," Mrs Alice Hogan Rice, author of "Mrs Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch" and "Lovey Nary" and new novel from the fasclnatlng pen of Mrs Humphry Ward, and novel, ''Rose O the River," by Kate Douglas Wiggin. There will be short stories, too, from the worlds best and most popular writers of fiction: Rudyard Kipling, Anthony Hope, Jack London, Marion Crawford, Ruth McEnery Stuart, Owen Mister, Miriam Nicholson, Irv- ing Bacheller, Booth Harrington, and scores of others. Beginning in the December issue are Ambassador Whites "reminiscences of his mission the most nota ble series of memoirs re- gently published. Dui ing 1905 Charles F. Brush will write for The Century of the invention and present status of "The Arc-Light;" George Westing- house, of "The Air-Brake;;" Nikola Tesla, of '"The Transmission of Pow er;" Frank J. Sprague, of "Electric Traction" Melville E. Stone, mana ger of that great organization, the As Soctated Press, will describe it's origin and methods, it's collection and dis tribution of news, it's operation in Europe, and it's service in wartime. There will be articles of general scien- tific interes and impt Tt ,nce from Prof Henry Fairfield Osborn, Gilbert H. Grosvenor, Prof Russell H. Chitten- den, Frank N Chapman and Helen Keller. American architecture will be treated at length, special papers covering "The New Naval Academy" " 1.-The New Custom-house in New
 York;" The New Congressional Build ings, ""The Capitol Extension" "The New National Museum," and "The New York Public Library" Another feature of the year will be series of papers telling of historic homes in France, with illustrations by Jules Guerin and Andre Castaigne. And it is promised that the East and it's in- teEestS that field to which all eyes are turning today, will be treated in a number of valuable and important ar ticles. The art features of The Gen. tury have always been of notable beauty--l9O5 will advance the stan dard. The. value of The Century in any home cannot be estimated. It means hours of entertainment. It means acquaintance with the best of modern art. It means accurate and intimate knowledge of all important investigations in science and of all re- form movements and interests. It means friendship with the best writers of the day. It means culture.
