ID. j Stannard, principal at the acade-
my, has secured a large collection OF ex-
hibits from different firms and manufac-
turers, which show different products from
the crude stages, up through the processes
OF manufacture, to the perfect article
ready to be put upon the market. From
the Vermont Marble Company at Proctor
he has photographs, showing the quarrles,
wOrkmen using modern machinery and
carving the blocks into beautiful statuary,
etc. He also has samples of marble of diff
ferent grades. From the Washburn Crosby
Company, Minneapolis, there are twenty
four walls filled with exhibits, showing the
wheat product in all its stages Of manufac-
ture, up to the finest flour. 1t requires
about fifteen processes to perfect flour for
the market. Mr.. Stannard has written des-
criptions showing how all this is done. or

large bottles, showing corn oil, syrup, dex-
trine, sugar, glucose, laundry starch and

meat products, oils, CLUES, brushes, combs,
materials for upholstering, phosphates and
numerous other things, both useful and

ished from the bodies Of animals. Bakers
Chocolate Co.'s exhibit is very fine and
instructive. There is also an exhibit from
the Pittsburg Plate Glass Co.; a Worces-
ter Salt exhibit and many other products

and in becoming acquainted with the fact
that our pupils are enjoying great advan-
tsges, under teachers, who not only have
their moral we'll being at heart, but are
doing their best to help the student keep
abreast of the times. Much credit is due
Professor Stannard for his untiring efforts
in securing these aids for pupils instruc-
ton.

JOHN T. McCUTCHEoN AS A
WRITER. John T. McCutcheon s new
volume of cartoons bears the title, The
Mysterious Stranger and Other Car
toons. While the pictures are at first
sight the important part, they are en-
phasized. by a. text revealing almost as
extraordinary talent, for Mr.. Nc
words as in lines. His introduction to
the book we'll sums up it's purpose and
contents:
These cartoons have been reprinted in
the hope that they may have perma-
nent interest because Of the great his
torical Importance Of the period they
encompass. In the last two or three
years the world has moved with more
than it's usual .alacrity. It has been g.
a war that was a war. There have been
disasters almost without parallel; and
we have weathered as pleasant a presi-
Dental campaign as the oldest inhabi-
tant can remember. Mr.. Roosevelt has
been insured to US for another four
years and his activities in peace and in
war and In sports have been source Of
unending inspiration to the cartoonist.
In addition, the nation has achieved
merited glory because Of the great ex-
position held in ST.. Louis, and last, but
not least Missouri has taken it into her
head to go republican,. The Importance
of these affairs is our excuse for hoping
that the cartoons appearing in this col
lection may have more than ephem-
eral interest, and with respectful hunil-
ity, we hereby dedicate them to that
grand old man-sometimes SO foolish but
always so weil-meaning-our Uncle Sam.
| One Of the cartoons from the book
is produced herewith. It is a hit at
Indiana, where the new authors come
from, and needs no diagram.

NTHONY HOPES LATEST
NOVEL A CLEVER CHARACTER
STUDY.-While A Servant Of the Pub
very far removed from "The Prisoner
of Zendaa,'' being a character study
instead of a novel of stirring action and
romantic adventure, it is a story of very
considerable interest and is not with
out such dialogs and complications as
one has come to expect of the author.
The Hseryant' referred to in the
don favorite, who lived on sympathy,
fattery. and love, but who has a Ger
tain 'instinct of morality'' which
keeps love-makers at proper distance,

fortune rather than by good intention.
This. instance involves Ashley Mead, a
barrister. with an income, but without

and spoils their love-making, is a van
ished husband Of Ora's. He appears
only to vanish again, but his coming
eases the tenseness Of the attraction
between the actress and the barrister,
tho it adds to the complications Of the
situation, and affects the outcome.
The portrait is a large one-larger
than the above meager outline would
indicate. The characters are many and
make an effective background for Ora,
showing her to be "a good sight" "
sacrificing others, her nature being
shaped to that, but herself a sacrifice

before the eyes and in the hearts Of

We cannot say that the illustrations

Sweet rose, whose hue angrie and brave
Bids the rash gazer wipe his eye; .e
Thy root is ever in its grave,
And thou must die.
Sweet spring, full Of sweet dayes and roses,
A box where sweets compacted lie; .
My musick shows ye have your closes, ,.-
And all must die.
Onely sweet and vertuous soul,
Like season'd timber never gives;
But tho the whole turned to coal
Then chiefly lives.
Professor Palmer follows his illum-
mating sketch Of Herbert $ life with a
study Of the man s character, then gives
igious Poetry,'' "The style,'' "The
Text and Order.'' The remainder of
the first volume Is given up to Her
bert's prose works and notes. Volumes
poems with copious notes, the poems
being printed on the right-hand page
and the notes on the left.
In his essay '"The Type Of Religious
Poetry,' the professor gives Herbert
credit for devising the religious love
lyric and for Introducing structure into
the short poem. Of Herbert IS style Pro
fessor Palmer says:
"Compact and trenchant thought is
what he prizes, and from this nothing
is allowed to draw off the readers at:
tention. Those concords of sweet sound
which in the great poets are of equa]
moment with the rational meaning, and
even inseparable from it are not fol
him. His lines do not cling to the cal
like strains Of music. We recall them
gladly, but only for their crowded sig
nifcance.'
Thus illuminatingly, lovingly an6
worthily thruout does Professor Palmer
discuss his subject, subject, the crisis
in whose life has it's lessons for our OWL
and all time embodied in forms o1
beauty and strength. It could hardly
be otherwise, however, for Herber1
"has been his bounteous comrade' fo1
fifty years. The professor says:
HBefore I could we'll read, I knew
large part Of his verse-not its mean
ing, but (what was more importan
then) it's large diction, flexible rhythm
and stimulating mysteries. AS I grew
the wisdom hidden in the strange line
was gradually disclosed, and in dali,
experience,
His words did t1nde out and parallels bring
And in another make me understood.
No expense has been spared, either O
money or mechanical skill, to make tn
edition the most beautiful edition il
