Home Offered Child

Magazines to Give Away

q have several copies of the Electrical Review, leading consecutively up to. the current numbers, that some one may have who will come for them; also a few other late magazines.
 Could you furnish me with the names and authors of some of the good historical books offiction of the time of Henry VIII. of England; also of Marie Antoinette?
 TT. J. D." say who has not found how untrue to lls- torical verities are many of the class. Miss Muhlbach's books are entertaining and, in the main, historical" Walter Scott hardly pretends to keep the straight road where a question of history and dates arises. When Knighthood Was in Flow err will be read with interest by one who has already made a serious study of the history through the pages of novel when the press teens with careful and admir- ably written biographies and volumes of historical value. Miss Strickland's Queens of England and of Scotland is as enchanting as any fiction. Woodrow Wilson's History of the American Peo- ple is pleasant reading and full of whole some instruction. Why resort to cisterns when you can drink as easily from the fountain?
 S-iil your pleasant city has libraries to which you can apply for information l cannot conscientiously supply.
 The Electrical Reviews will be gladly accepted by some of our members who are interested in the great subject with which they deal.

 Things Corner Cannot Do
 In going over our daily mail I am often reminded of the plantation wiseacre who was asked by his grandson, You know everything, don't you, gran daddy?" and the reluctant reply, Nav, chile' Dere may be three or four things l ain jes' certain about"
 So I begin todays work with the con mession that there are some things the Corner cannot do.
 We cannot answer letters which do not
  contain real names and full addresses. We do not engage to answer letters writ ten in pencil and especially penciled ad- dresses.
 We cannot name proprietary articles and patent medicines, or give business ad- dresses. We positively decline to publish letters asking for money or for salaried posi- tions.
 We do not like to ask for castoff cloth ing, while we gladly distribute any that may be offered voluntarily. provided it is sent direct to the beneficiaries after We supply the addresses.
