NEW BOOK NEWS
CONDUCTED BY MARTHA YOUNG

portant study of the volume is the futility of gifts and charity.
 The arraignment of Mrs. Wilson by her protege Loretta is one of the strongest and most novel scenes in modern literature.
 How rarely the gifts of the rich bless either the giver or those on whom they are bestowed.
 Is 1t because no benefactor asks: What do you want? What shall ] give you? What will help you?
 Think of a millionaire asking a beg gar or a%receiver of charity. what do you want! with intention of supplying that wantf No. 1t is always: Take this. you need it.2you should want it whether yoli do, or not .f
 The poor. mendicant goes his way with a worthless bauble: an education in something he Is not fitted for. a deaf man with a seasons concert ticket. Il blind man with good seat on an observation car. and so forth.
 It Is not often that their gifts find them out, however. even in real life and that makes Judge Grants fine scene the more novel and valuable.

The man firt is usually held up before us in such guise as to excite either our ridicule or our disdain. But why should he be either laughed at or treated with contempt more than any other living mortal. Something in him. mate, makes him what he Is, just as another man is born single-hearted or noble. or trustworthy. The picture of Maurice Wynne with his glitter his shallowness, his fascination. his sudden tempests of fear and self-re- proach" is the dominant character of the book.

BLACK ROSES A POSSIBILITY.
May Be Produced by HOrticulturlsts
 Who Use Electric Lights.
Detroit Tribune.

DCSAOlk LAAOOAS.
 It may not, perhaps. be generally known that there are hundreds of men today who are spending their lives en- deavoring to produce flowers of coIors different to what nature intended. For half a century scientists in floral cul- ture have expended all their energies on the creation of a black rose, but though they have succeeded in pro- ducing a flower of so dark a crimson as to appear black yet their efforts have not been wholly successful.
 A foreign horticulturist who has been remarkably successful in raising flow CTS on scientific principles was one of the first to employ electricity as stimulant to rapid growth and has by its means been able to bring an ordi- nary hyacinth to maturity and bloom within four weks of planting the bulb He asserts that electricity judiciously applied to plants can be made to- force or retard their growth, and that it is now possible to obtain a crop of blooms of any species of flowers every week in the year If desired.
 'As far back as 1S79," said this wiz ard of the flower bed, "I was experi- menting in horticulture, and, like. many a man before me. I was bitten with the ambition to produce a black rose. 1 was more successful than most. for I did manage to create a rose which looked black in an ordinary light. but when subjected to close examination, the crimson heart was revealed. In those days we obfSined our results through feeding the plants on different kinds of chemicals, iron filings produc- ing a darker hue on the petals, while the combination of other minerals had different affects on the colorings.
 But the chemical solution as colo- producer in floral culture will soon be a thing of the past, for far superior re- suits can now be obtained by employ ing the rays from an electric arc lamp. I have a room in my house from which every ray of sunlight has been ex- eluded, and its place has been taken

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It is In
 Preserving Health and Beauty.


 Nearly everybody knows that char coal is the safest and most efacient disinfectant and purifier in nature, but few realize it's value when taken into the human system for the same cleans ing purpose.
 Charcoal is remedy that the more you take of it the better; 1t is not a drug at all. but simply absorbs the gases and impurities always present in the stomach and intestines and car ries them out of the system.
 Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking. drinking or eating onions and other odorous vegetables.
 Charcoal effectually clears and im- proves the complexion. 1t whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe catnartic.
 It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; it disinfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh.
 All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another. but probably the best charcoal and the most for the money is in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they are composed of the finest powdered Willow charcoal, and other harmless antiseptics in tablet form or rather in the form of large pleasant tasting lozenges, the charcoal being mixed with nOneSs
 The daily use of these lozenges will soon tell in a much improved condition of the general health, better complex ion, sweeter breath and pureE blood. and the beauty of 1t is. that no possi- ble harm can result from their conttn- ued use. but on the contrary, great benefit.
 Buffalo physician in speaking of the beneHts of charcoal, says: T ad- wise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all patients suffering from gas in stomach and bowels, and to clear the complex ion and purify the breath, mouth and throat; also believe the liver is great ly benefited by the daily use of them; they cost but twenty-five cents a box at drug stores and although in some sense a patent preparation, yet I be- -lieye 1 get more and better charcoal than in any of the ordinary charcoal tabletS

by haIf dozen arc lamps of varying
 powers. By means of this light alone l
 have reared various plants from seeds,
 and in less than a quarter the time
 which unaided nature takes.
 But you want to hear how the dif-
 ferent colors are produced. All we
 claim is to be able to deepen or tighten
 more brilliant, and, in fact, give to A
 bloom dozen different shades which 1t
 would not otherwise possess. And we accomplish all this by the use of an electric arc light and different colored globes. Almost at the commencement
 of our investigations and experiments we found that red globes produced an
 intense and vivid red impossible to obs tain by the suns rays.
 White globes, I may tell you, have no effect whatever on the color of A, Iflower-neither deepening nor iessening the tint-but as a stimulant to growth the results are highly satisfactory, and
 plants reared in the rays of a white electric light are strong, bloom freely and come to maturity in a marvellous
 ly short period of time.
 Yellow globes are also very satis- factory have no evil effects on the
 flowers and produce the most delecate
 and beautiful tints, changing deep blue 1O pdAC hduNcp OTdnBS to Ta1nGeSc
 sulphur, brilliant red to shell pink, etc. Curiously enough, blue globes not only
 have no effect on the color of a flower,
 but also seem to neutraliza the propa- gating qualities of the electricity. Tn other words, a plant reared in the rays of electric light. shaded by blue globes. will come to maturity and bloom almost exactly as though 1t were grown in the open air of a conserva- ory. Whenever we desire to increase
 the depths of colors and produce gor-
 geous crimsons, rich yellows or dark
 purples we have to employ the red lights. In some cases I have noticed
 the color appears to have a weakening
 effect on the plants but we hope soon
 to hit on somemeans to negative this, and believe in due course we shall be successful

Why is a Boy sent to CoIlegeF


 President Woodrow Wilson of Prince ton University, who is the author of "A History of the American People" lectured in New York the other day on "The University and the Nation. |" President Wilson made some remarks that throw light on modern college ed ucation. He said: You don't send @ boy to college to find an education--it's to find himself. to orient himself to find his relation to the life that Is around him, and to become of value to the nation. The classroom is not vital. because one man dominates-one man Is master. I believe that the only way to learn is by trying your mind along side of some other mind and drawing conclusions. The thing is to get in the classroom the point of view. Nothing gives youngster catholicity of view like rubbing against the men of varI- ous parts of his own country"

Why orchids are Expensive.

The adventures of an orchid hunter in South America are graphically des- cribed by John E. Lager in an article in the December 17 issue of Harpers Weekly. MT. Lager relates a number of interesting experiences which have ocurred during his expeditions, On one trip he explored a new district for a distance of 150 miles and collected 10000 plants. He had 200 native orchid-hunters working for him at one time, paying them Is to 25 cents each for each specimen collected. The great est drawback to orchid hunting is the danger Of poisonous snakes and in- sects in the South American forests. As a reason for the high prices which orchids bring in this country Mir Lager cities an instance in which he received recently one thousand orchids from the Philippines. They represented years work of an experienced collector and over a hundred native assistants. On the arrival of the plants in New York not one of them lived.

Personal and Pertinent.
Judith of Refhulia.

Already Mir. Aldrich has written one of his most ambitious. poems on the subject of Judith, and, in develop ing his play, he had the advantage of being able to follow in the footsteps of the Italian playwright, Giacometti whose crude, violent, yet powerful Judith till recently held a couspic- uous place in Miss o'NeiPs repertory In outlining his work he set himself hard task, to present as the chief figure in a tragedy an austere woman controlled by one idea, the saving of her country from the besieging enemy. The character of Judith made q romantic complication exceedingly difficult. and, in solving the problem, MT. Aldrich had the fine inspiration of letting her fall in love with Holo- fernes. On this conception alone a great drama might have been con- structed, and if MT. Aldrich did not seize his advantage, 1t was because his taste and his sensibility held him back. What he did do could. In It's way, have hardly been done bet- ter; the pity is that he gave him self so short a rein. Instead of writ ing a powerful tragedN he chose to present a series of scenes, beautifully poetic. full of sensuous charm and tenderness of feeling. but deficient in conference vigor, and in the deeper human complications that appeal to the chart and thrill the imagination. He had the courage to write in blank verse, and throughout he has main tained an extraordinary smoothness and a grace of diction that frequently rises to an impassioned eloquence. In the first of the two scenes of the first act he indicates the situation of the Jews in Bethulia:
 Hunger and thirst and fever rule us
