They mark out the work for the teacher
in a clearly defined manner by telling
him what to do and when to do it. From
the start lessons in writing language
are employed simultaneously with those
in conversation; and picture study, study
of literary selections and letter writing
are presented at frequent intervals. The
lessons are of a proper length, and well
graded. The work is systematically ar
ranged, especially in Book l. This series
is free from the many faults found in
other books of a similar nature The
work is not based on an Anticipated plan,
but is particularly suited to modern con-
ditiOns. 1t does not shoot over the heads
of pupils, nor does 1t show a marked eff
fort in writing down to the supposed level
of young mind. The books do not con-
tain too much technical grammar, nor
are they filled with sentimental twaddle
and gush.

The writer of this little drama in blank

known as i-imperialists. He has taken
the acquisition of the Philippines by this.
country, and all the changed conditions
resultant upon a foreign policy, as In
dlcatlng complete departure from an
clent American ideals. His characters are
the hero, Young America, John Bull, Mr..
Monopoly Col. Gorgon, Senator lingo,
soldiers, secretaries, a war correspondent
and the shade Of Old America With
these he has woven a play in which he
argues the evils of the times, scores DO
litical corruption and foreshadows the
certain downfall of this republic as he
sees it resulting from a policy of i'm
perialism. The sad play ends with an
apOstrophe from .the shade of Old
America who paints the glorfes Of true
democracy and bewails the changes made
by Young America.

Spring.

Now that the winters gone, the earth
hath lost
Her snow white robes; and now no more
the frost
Candies the grass or casts an icy cream
Upon the silver lake or crystal stream;
But the warm sun thaws the benumbed
earth,
And makes it tender; gives a sacred birth
To the dead swallow; wakes in hollow
tree
The drowsy cuckoo and the humble bee
Now do choir of chirping MINISTRIES
bring
In triumph to the world the youthful
spring!
The valleys. hills and woods, in rich ar
ray,
Welcome the coming of the longed-for
May.

And There are others

Between Mitchell and Mt. Vernon
we noticed the other day a gang OF
men and teams at work near the track
upon some kind of a proposition, the
nature of which it was difficult to de.
termine from a swiftly moving train.
A closer investigation showed the out
tit busily engaged tearing up rods of
virgin sod covered with the richest
grasses and piling it ina heap across a
low piece. of ground. The first thought
was that they were throwing up a
turnpike, but the job so far as it had
gone would test the stoutest team and
strongest wagon, unloaded, if an at
tempt was made to drive on it. The
next day we made some inquiries and
learned that the gang was actually
