MAGAZINES.

The October number of the North
American Review is a particularly
good number. The articles are timely
and by well-known writer's. Among the
most notable of them are the follow
ing: How Good City Government
May Be Had" by Lucien F. C. Gar
win: What the Prohibition Party
Stands For" by Silas C. Swallow;
"The Making of Modern Roses" by
DR.. P. Chalmers Mitchell; Society and
Sanity in Relation to Public Office"
by DR.. Alan McLane Hamilton, and
"Czarism at Bay" by Karl Blind.
This is only a part of the list of good
articles, but they show the character
of the number. The North American
Review, Franklin Square, New York

The October number of the National
Review has fourteen articles and most
of them are of a character to attract
general attention. Perhaps the most
interesting one of them is that en-
titled Church and State in France
At the Parting of the Ways" by Sen
ator Georges Clemenceau. Another
article that will command attention is
"England's False Friend" by Ultov.
The Rev. r. ]. Campbell discusses

No time has been set for holding
another meeting of the public library
board to elect a librarian and assis-

Members of the library board talk as
if there is little use in doing anything
until the city wakes mp. 1t took many
weeks to get few loads of dirt hauled
and deposited in the yard to grade it,
preparatory to making it attractive,
and for several more weeks the board
has been trying to get the dirt
spread, but to no purpose. 1t is still
lying in the library yard in large
mounds and heaps, and the city has
not taken the trouble to send the
chain gang out to spread it, and the
library board is thinking of paying
the cost out of its own pocket.
