with perfectly delightful lecture on

happy little speech, wishing him and
his wife bon voyage" on their trip
abroad this summer, and tho grateful
thanks of the club members for his
many interesting papers read In the
parlors OF tho club.
DR.. Metcaif, with his ever-pleasing
and charming style, was most enthu-
siasticaliy received. and discussed the
subject of the afternoon. the Teller
of Tales" as he is SO lovingly called
by hts south Sea Island friends. in
The manner of one friend concerning
another. He told of his wonderful.
vital personality that never grows old,
the manner OF man that Stevenson
was; that his books and verses should
he such lively classics and refuse to
be retired TO the dust of the top shelf.
on his fathers side he came OF sea

ancestors of grave Scotch philosophers

with light and shadow. dreams and
illness, but he never quarreled with
gift OF fortune no matter how Mig
gardly. Thus we find him a boy of
dreams, taking more pleasure in his
nurses tales OF Bible heroes and Scot
tish legends than the sums and les
sons. for, like Scott, he was a poor
scholar, though like CARLYLE. an in

Stevenson dictated a history OF Moses,
and so, the child father 10 the man,

Literature was his passion. though
the law his profession. and with the
call OF his sea in his blood and mis-
III health to plead his cause We find
him in 1875 becoming citizen of the
world. making friends. keeping the
music of the sea in his song and writ
ing his new phases OF the everything
and never-dying historical novel.
DR.. Metcalf stated four characteris-
tics of stevenson as the man. And as
for his books" he said. as Kipling has
1t. that's another story" He said
that boyishness was his most obvious
trait, and cited the charming little
incidents when Stevenson emptied the
bushel of snails into his neighbors
garden, and the occasion when he
signed himself to some American boy
in quest OF an autograph-"the author
of vast quantity of little books

a novice held over a roaring pit, sus-
pended by rope. while a large pair of
shears threaten to cut the rope. On
the reverse cover is shown another

a bottle of extra dry on his way TO
