Newspapers as Text Books.

Newspapers have been ranked as a
text book at Northwestern University,
and hereafter students in the American
History class of Professor J. A. James
must come to the recitation rooms pre-
pared to answer questions on the news
of the day. In the course of a recent
lecture Prof. James referred to an
article which appeared in morning
paper. Upon questioning one of the
members of the class he found that the
student was not prepared to discuss
current news, and an examination of
the class showed that but two of the
members had read a morning paper.
"This will never do" said the pro-
fessor. thereafter l shall expect you
to have an accurate knowledge of cur
rent events as chronicled each day in
the newspapers, and shall consider it
fully as important as the daily lessons
assigned from the text books"

The Companion as a Christmas Gift.

Can you think of a gift more certain to
be acceptable than years subscription to
THE YOUTHS COMPANION? Is there any
one, young or old, who, having once had the
paper in his hands and looked through it,
and not wish to possess it for his very own
1t is a gift which, far from losing its fresh
ness as Christmas recedes into the past,
grows more delightful, more necessary to
ones enjoyment, week by week,
The boy likes it, for it reflects in its pages
every boyish taste and every fine boyish
aspiration. The father likes it, not only
for its fiction but for its fund of information
of the practical sort. The girl likes it for
the stories, anecdotes, sketches and editor-
al articles printed in each number especially
for her. The mother likes it for its stories
of domestic life and family affection, for its
children's page and for its medical article.
On receipt of $1.75, the yearly subscrlp-
ton price, the publishers send to the new
subscriber all the remaining issues of TIE
Companion for 1905 and the "Alinutemen''
Calendar for 1906, autographed in twelve
coIors and gold.
Full illustrated announcement of the
new volume for 1906 will be sent with

Every mother possesses information
which is of vital interest to her young
daug liter.
Too often this is never impaired or is
withheld until serious harm has result
ed to the growing girl through her
ignorance of natures mysterious and
wonderful laws and penalties.
Girls over-sensitiveness and modesty
often puzzle their mothers and battle
physicians as they so often withhold
their confidence from their mothers
and conceal the symptoms which ought
to be told to their physician at this
critical period.
When girls thoughts become slug
gish, with headache, dizziness or dis
position to sleep, pains in back or lower
limbs, eyes dim, desire for solitude:
when she is q mystery to herself and
friends, her mother should come to her
aid, and remember that Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound will at
this time prepare the system for the
coming change, and start the menstrual
period in a young girls life without
pain or irregularities.
Hundreds of letters from young girls
and from mothers, expressing their
gratitude for what Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound has accomplished
for them, have been received by the
Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co., at
Lynn, Mass.
Miss Mills has written the two fol-
lowing letters to Mrs. Finkham, which

In the November Atlantic. Henry
Holt, the veteran publisher, has lead
ing article on The Commercialization
of Literature, which is at once the sin
cerest and most authoritative word we
have yet had on this theme. Mr.. Holt
considers the relations between the
publisher and the author, between the
publisher and the public, between the
publisher and the literary agent, with
great vigor. He is especially interest
ing in what he has to say upon the
questions of book advertising, on the
perncious influence of the literary
agent upon literature, and upon the
sordid ideals which have crept into
both the business of publishing and the
profession of authorship. We commend
what he has to say to every thoughtful
reader.

a Sunday school picnic. \ man of
such fortunate temperament can Sc
cure the friendship of every man,
woman, child, dog, and horse that he
meets.
But in his latest incursion across
Mason and Dixons line he showed
something more than unquenchable JOY
in life 1t was his chivalry, his sympa-
thy with the under dog, that inspired
him when he spoke with solemnlty and
fervor to the negroes of Tuskegee. He
dwelt both on their rights and their du-
ties; and in this he was, as he always
has been, the great and good friend of
their race. His directness in dealing
with delicate and difficult question
has already had its effect. The South
ern papers are speaking with unprece-
denied cordiality of the negro. Each
race, says the Florida Times Union,
should rejoice in the success Of the
other" The Savannah News adds,
'Since the negro is here to stay, why
isn't it the best policy to make as good
and helpful man and citizen out of
him as possible?" If Roosevelt shall
have done even little to <allay the Bit
terness between the races, he will more
than ever merit the title, The Great
Paciticator. But in no incident did
President Roosevelt appear to better
advantage than in his crushing rebuke
to the Governor of Arkansas, and his
stand for the majesty Of the law. No
President since Lincoln could have ut
tered with such force that noble reply
to the plea about ''the one crime
'To avenge one heinous crime by an
other heinous crime is to reduce the
man doing it to the bestial level of the
man who committed the bestial crime. :"
