65th YEAR.
An AntebelIum Novelist Recalled.


Relatives of Major Theodore Win
throp recently presented to the Public
library of New York the manuscripts
of that short lived writer, whose liter
ary career was abandoned at the call
of his country. The manuscripts in
clude "Cecil Dreeme," "John Brent"
and Edwin Brothertoft," all written
In the fifties and alive with the spirit
Of that time.
Cecil Dreeme" is a romance of the
literary and art center of old New
York and appeals only to those who
imagine that the world of art is q
sphere set off by itself, and its deniZens
more or less under the influence of
uncanny powers. "John Brent" is just
the opposite of this closet made novel
and takes the reader into the breezy
life of the plains as it was n genera
tion before road agents and Indians
went into the show business. Edwin
Brothertofr" is romance of the Hud-
son valley during the Revolution. It
has plot and character and as his
torical novel can lose nothing in COM
parison with the best work in that
field by the present generation Of
writer's. This work gave promise that
its author but for his untimely death
on the battlefield of Big Bethel in 1861
might have created a school of Ameri-
can fiction worthy of study and imita-
tion by later age.

OF INTEREST TO FARMERS.
Winter Courses in Agriculture at
the Pennsylvania State College.

Two hundred and twenty-five students
are enrolled in the four and two years
courses in agriculture at the Pennsylva-
vania State College. Their education is
part of the work of our State School of
Agriculture, but there are other young
men needing service. Many persons do
not have the time for college education,
but they can give the winter to study.
For this reason winter courses in agri
culture were established at the college
last year, and ninety men were enrolled.
They found the lectures and practical
exercises adapted to the need of men
who war; to ipcreasetheir earning power.
Underlying principles were studied, and
practical methods OF dealing with crops,
soils, orchards, animals and dairy pro-
ducts were given these young men. They
returned to their homes with desire to
encourage others to attend the college
next winter for study under its practical
scientists. The courses begin December
1st, and close February 24th. The asso-
citation with hundreds of students in ag-
ricuture and the study of problems
arising in the everyday life of the farmer
make these winter courses an opportun-
ity that a bright young man cannot af-
ford to miss.
The free illustrated bulletin describing
the five winter courses in agriculture is
ready for distribution. Address School
of Agriculture, State College, Pa.

The title Of czar has come into dis
repute in the west on account of its
association with the most hated form
of absolutism in Russia in recent
years. In the east, however, it is a
very old title, having been in use since
the twelfth century, and has always
stood for the same sort of rule and
ruler as the more common title "em-
peror" and the "kaiser"' of the Ger
mans. In calling himself SCAR of the
Bulgars" Ferdinand Of Bulgaria might
seem to initiate the Russiaps autocrats
and TO hint at absolutisrn Of the kind
made Infamous in Russia.
The word czar comes from the Latin
and signifies -yels Or CAESAR.
which ia about the saiih aing, The
Old Bulgarian spelling vas ~tsesdf4,s
the definition being emperor. For the
ruler Of Slavic people, like the Bull
garians, the word cZar would natural
ly be preferred to that of emperor,
since 1t really has less of the sugges-
tion of autocrat. The title was borne
for several centuries by Russian
princes who lid not assume imperial
rank and privileges. Peter the Great
added the title 'imperator," but the
powers were slow to award imperial
rank to the ruler of Russia.

boys, and can be left with less safety to the care of special department. Were selecting a college for my girl, says G. Stanley Hall. the eminent phychologist. in the September Appleton's, she should go where health in the largest sense was made most basal. It is not merely a question of avoiding invalidism, but of tiding girls whose bodies are by the time they graduate ripe for maternity and have reached if not exceeded the age when, through the long, immemorial past, their forbears had entered upon the functions and duties of parenthood. over a period of delay and probation and preparation fraught with grave dangers of psycho- physic deterioration. The body and soul of the girl in the middle twenties cries out for love of husband and children. As Tetullian said, as the soul of man Is restless until 1t finds repose in God so does the woman's nature find it's true goal only as queen of a family. This, of course, the woman's college cannot guar antee. but it should. though 1t does not adequately, realize that substitution of intellectual aims and even social service involves a great, though usually uncon-' scious, strain by which few women who are subjected to it remain entirely un- the health question of girl graduates. and thus there Is a never-to-be-forgotten sense, differing, of course, very much with different girls, in which the mental activities of college and preparation for independent careers are but consolation prizes.
