Few French writer's of fiction are
more widely known than Edmond
| About, and none more richly deserves
popularity. His writings contain q
humor hich makes them entertaining
! reading, and a skill in the delineation OF
| character inferior only to that of tn.
/ great BalHac. They are particularly
noteworthy on account of the absence
of those features which make much
| French fiction inappropriate for use IN
| the class room.
| Among About's shorter stories these
qualities nOwhera appear to a better
advantage than in La Mere de la Mar
| quise;" and not far inferior to it stands
La File du Chanoine." These two Sc
!ections have been chosen for the pres
ent edition, because taken together they
! afford a better example of the authors
power than is to be found i'm any single
piece. and because the characters in the
two are taken from two entirely differ
ent classes of society.
The style is not difficult and the
notes and vocabulary are of such full
hess that the book may be used during
the first years work by any exceptine
very young students. For these il will
be more suitable if used in the secono
year. Even mature students. however
will find it useful and interesting for
rapid reading.
The Good Of the Wicked and TIL.
Party Sketches by Owen Kildare
author of MY Mamie Rose" cloth. nm
14S: New York: The Baker & Taylor
Co.
One of the most discussed books of
last year was my Mamie Rose" not
merely because of it's own worth
strength and beauty and the atmos-
phere of sincerity and truth that en-
veloped it; bug because of the interest
ing and remarkable personality of the
author. That a street waif growing
up into priZe fighter and dive
"bouncer" could in the brief period of
four or five years secure an education
that would give him the elements of an
exceptionally good literary style and
enable him to graduate from his old |
environments into the world Of success |
full authorship-would read like a fairy |
tale did we not have the career of Mr.. |
Kildare as a very visible and substan- |
tial proof Of its absolute truth. 1t IL |
not surprising that the public should be
interested in this man, and should de-
sire to see more of his work. 1t has
been in response to popular demand
that Mr.. Kildare has collected and pub
lished number Of the short stories
and sketches that first attracted atten-
ton to him as a writer for the great
papers. They deal with
phases OF the city life with which the
authors life has made him familiar
They are sure to still further strength
en- the hold of Mr.. Kildare upon the
good opinion of the reading public.

A peculiar freak of the wind Of Fri
day afternoon, was noticed on tho harm
which has recently been moved to RI,
premises Of Hon. W. Fl. Gannett, on
Western avenue. The barn is a bip
one. being 46xS0 feet. and when Mr.,
Wellman who has been moving it. ar
rived on the scene. Saturday morning
he was surprised to find that the
barn had been swung around IS inches
from where he had left it, And the
funny part of it was that hydraulic
Jack upon which one corner of the barn
had rested, was left standing where
it had been, without even the cap being
knocked off. One end of the barn was
some distance from the ground, and
the wind simply got under it. and set
it over without disturbing a thing.

EXPOSITION DAYS

At New Haven's Representative stores
 Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and
 saturday, March 2s, a4, a5 and ss
 Attention is called to the large ad- vertisement appearing elsewhere in this issue. in which the merchants of this city announce their spring open ines and exhibitions of fashions most recent conceits. The four festive days will be Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday of this week, and the in- dications are that these exposition days will prove an unqualified success. All the department and speciality stores are represented in this movement and the leading milliners and clothing deal ers as well.
 The plan of holding spring openings simultaneously was designed especially to accomodate out-of- town patrons, who are thus given the opportunity of visiting New Haven at a time when the spring displays in all the stores are at their very best. In this way a pleasur- able and profitable days outing is made possible.
 The residents of New Haven, too, will appreciate this concerted movement on the part of the local merchants, for they can view the entire style-showing in one or two tours of inspections, and can the better judge of comparative merits. The exposition days have been widely advertised. Practically all of New Ha- ven and Fairfield counties have been covered through the mediums of coun- try weeklies and billboard posting.
 Judging by the favorable comment expressed on all sides, most enthusi- astic response will result. With favor able weather conditions, exposition week will be a notable event in mercan- tile circles, and one of mutual pleasure and profit to all concerned.

BY RRV. MIR. PRENTISS
ADDRESS AT DAVENPORT CON
 GREGATIoNAL CHURCH.
Ills Theme "The Inner Llr.;' Real Life Not Ex,ernal-seat of Redsmpsive Work Is the Inner Life.

Not ExternaI-Seat of Redempttve
 Work Is the Inner Life.
 At the Davenport Congregational church. yesterday morning Rev. George Foster Prentiss addressed his people on the theme '.The Inner Life" A synopsis of the sermon is given below. At 6:S0 was held the Christian Endeayor pray CT meeting. Subject: Little Things that Christ Makes Great" On Tuesday at 7:45 p. m. a special foreign missionary meeting will be held. Mrs. Edward Hume will speak on "Work in India" An offering will be made at the close of the service for missionary work.
 MT. Prentiss in his sermon yesterday spoke substantially as follows:
 Our real life is the inner life. The external life is the material, which is the changing. The inner is the spiritual, and is eternal. The kingdoms of this world are all transitory, but the king dom of God which is in you, is abiding because it is spiritual.
 Conditions of the inner life-By na- ture not holy, but the source of all that is selfish, covetous, impure, greedy. Out of the fulness of the heart the mouth speaketh. The real evil is not the ex- ternal, which is only the result of an evil inner life. The forces of heat and light, the law of gravitation are not more real than the forces of the spirit This is true whether the issues are good or evil. The reality is shown likewise by the teaching that man cannot live by bread alone. That is, the real life must be nurtured with evil or good spiritual food
 This condition led Christ to appeal to the heart. His own condition, fed by meat of which the external world was entirely ignorant, fitted him to under take the work which he had come to do Though he began upon the outer crust, by doing physical miracles, still his end was evidently spiritual, as he was wont to draw conclusions and make appli- cations of a spiritual nature. You see he was working inward, straight to- ward the heart He would capture the thoughts and affections of the heart. He would not stop until he had gained the citadel.
 Mans uplift and sanctifcation alone fit him for his work in the world. And the seat of all this redemptive work is in the inner life. Joy, righteousness, peace, humility. Listen to the glad music of the New Testament. It is the one harmonious chord in that discord- ant age. Tn the midst of evil, how strenuous was the service of the apos- ties! What standard of right think ing and feeling do we find in the epistles! How they stand fearlessly
The daily morning journal and courier., 1904-03-21

for that ideal of grace and goodness which was revealed to them in their inner life when Christ came to them! And behold, how in the midst of the fiercest turmoil and storm they are tranquil. Their peace flowing forth as a river meath the faint shining of the summer nooni And though their minis try be mighty, they are as humble as little children. And as they have be- come transformed they have been deemed worthy to perform that external service, which is the expression of their loyalty to the Master.
 The inner life should be cultivated, because it is the place where Jesus re- veals himself. Here is the eye of the soul.
 Without a development of this inner life we cannot see God. And if we should see. Him we should not realize who He might be. Mary. broken-heart- ed, sought her Lord in the morning of the resurrection. Someone calls. Who? The gardener? He is stranger. But suddenly, it is all made plain when he speaks to her inner life. Mary" And then she knows. All of the past spirit ual experience makes possible the inter- pretation of this revelation to her inner self. Cleopas and his friend at the close of that strange day of wonders trudge home toward Emmaus in the twilight gloom. The stranger who joins him. self to them, they do not know. He speaks wondrously well of all that had happened, but not until he reveals him. self in the mystical way in which he presides at the evening meal are their eyes of the inner life opened, and then they know. He has spoken to their inner life. And so I say, that it is only as we cultivate the inner life are we able to be taught of the Master.
 This cultivation of the spirit life is important because the sense of newess is necessary to do the work re- quired. The consciousness of having been born again. Behold all things are become new. The ability to renew ones strength like the eagle. It is a matter of love, and love is from the inner life. Only through this freshness of personal experience can we win the hearts which are weary with their burden of sin and the years.
 Finally, this is vital matter, because all of our hope, courage, and power are from the inner life. This is true of the apostles. They were simply irrepressi- ble in their strength. Their courage was not a matter of theory, theology, philosophy, but personal experience, a reality. They just glowed with love and l loyalty to the Master. It was meat and , drink to serve Him. Can we not pro- pose to cultivate this inner life more assiduously. even until we shall be able to see Jesus in all his beauty? So real l is this inner life, and so capable of de- | velopment that it is through this ave- nue that we come to see the invisible.
