IN THE REALM OF BOOKS
BISHOP LAURENCE'S STUDY OF PHILLIPS BROOKS.
A LIFE OF CHANNING r ANNOUNCEMENTS
NO MORE suitable book for Easter
could be Imagined than Bishop
Lawrence's study of "Phillips
Brooks," Twblch Houghton, Mifflin & Co.
have- just published, Tound In -white and
Sold and containing a photogravure por
trait. The llttlo volume brings out in a
masterly way the great preacher's more
permanent contributions to the religious
thought and lire of the time. It Is &
sketch of his theological position, of his
attitude towards the intellectual and spir
itual movements of the 12th. century, of
the leading features of his own thought,
and of his relations to the church. It
was delivered as an address from the
pulpit of Phillips Brooks in Trinity
Church, Boston, January 23, 1203, at a
commemorative service held by the two
dioceses in the State of Massachusetts,
on the tenth anniversary of the death of
their lato bishop. It la a model of elo
quence, good taste and inspiration which
all admirers of Bishop Brooks will de
sire to possess.
"OLD GRAHAM?" PHILOSOPHY.
Extracts From "Letter From a Self
Made Merchant to Ills Son."
The lady on the dollar is the only woman
that hasn't any sentiment In her make-up.
A $12 clerk who owes J52 for roses needs
a keeper more than a wife. I want to say
right here that there always comes a time
to the fellow who blows $52 at a lick on
roses when he thinks how many staple
groceries he could have bought with tlie
money.
To marry for money or to marry without
money- is a crime. There is no real objec
tion to marrying a woman with a fortune,
but there Is to marrying a fortune with a
woman.
While you are at It, there's nothing like
picking out a good-looking wife, because
even the handsomest woman looks homely
sometimes, and so you can get a little va
riety; but a homely one can only look
worse than usual. Beauty Is only skin
deep, but that's deep enough to satisfy
tiny reasonable man.
I've heard a good deal in my time about
the foolishness of hens, but when It comes
to right down plumb foolishness, give me
a rooster every time. He's always strutting
tnd stretching and crowing 'and bragging
about things with which he bad nothing
to do. "When the sun rises, you'd think
that he was making all the light, instead
of all the noise; when the farmer's wife
throws the scraps In the henyard, he crows
as If he was the provider for the whole
farmyard and was asking a blessing on
the food; when he meets another rooster,
he crows, and when the other rooster licks
him, he crows, and so he keeps it up
straight through the day. He even wakes
up during the night and crows a little on
general principles. But when you hear
from a hen, she's laid an egg, and she
doesn't make a great deal of noise about it
either.
Some men go through 'life on the sarsa
parllla theory that they've got to give a
hundred doses of talk about themselves
for every dollar which they take in; and
that's a pretty good theory when you are
getting a dollar for 10 cents' worth of in
gredients. But a man who's giving a dol
lar's worth of himself for 99 cents doesn't
need to throw in any explanations.
Most men get crosseyed when they come
home to size themselves up, and see an
angel Instead of what they're trying to
look at There's nothing that tells the
truth to a woman like a mirror, or that
lies harder to a man.
Hot air can take a balloon up a long
ways, but It can't keep It there. And
when a fellow's turning - flip-flops up
among the clouds.he's naturally going to
have the farmers gaping at him. But
in the end there always comes a time
when the parachute fails to work. I don't
know anything that's quite so dead as a
man who's fallen 3000 or -5000 feet off the
edge of a cloud.
The path isn't the shortest way to the
top, but it's usually the safest way.
Easy money never draws Interest; easy
borrowed dollars pays usury.
Whenever any one offers to let you in on
the ground floor, it's pretty safe to take
the elevator to the roof garden.
There's no alarm clock for the sleepy
man like an early rising manager, and
there's nothing breeds work in an office
like a busy boss.
Some fellows can only oee those above
them, and others can only eee those under
them, but a good man Is crosseyed and can
seo both ends at once.
Be slow to hire and quick to fire.
A discharged clerk n the office is like a
splinter in the thumb a center of sore
ness. "Reflections of a Lonely Man."
The genial philosopher who sits before
an open Are, and discourses amid wreaths
of tobacco smoke on anything that comes
to his mind, has always been a favorite
with readers. Donald G. Mitchell was
the first to hit upon this happy style, and
many volume along the same lines have
followed. The latest apostle of the "flre
slde school of thought," as it has been
called, prefers to conceal his Identity be
hind the Illusive initial, and "The Reflec
tions of a Lonely Man" bears only a mod
est "A C M." on its title-page. Whoever
he may be, his publishers assert that he
Is a most delightful discovery and his book
a very entertaining and original little
volume. "The Lonely Man" knows how
to mlnglo humor and philosophy, and he
Is concerned with matters of immediate,
every-day interest. Especially will his
defense of the much abused habit of
Emoking appeal to masculine readers, as
many new and ingenious arguments are
advanced which will doubtless be of much
service to those of us vho have ex
hausted our own supply in conducting one
side of an endless debate.
A Life of ChannlnR-.
The present revival of Interest In
"William Ellery Channlng" makes very
timely the biography of him by John W.
Chadwick. (Houghton. Mifflin & Co.) Mr.
Chadwick's "Theodore Parker" will be
long remembered as a biography of vital
interest and of lasting value. The treat
ment of the life of Channlng is similar,
and will engage the attention of readers
and students of the anti-slavery conflict,
for Channlng's relation to this subject
abounded In dramatic interest and had
an Individuality which is carefully
brought out. Of more immediate im
portance is his prophetic attitude with
reference to the liberality of tho sects
and the problems ot sociology and phi
lanthropy. The main intention is to ex
hibit Channlng's vital criticism of our
present tendencies and his encouragement
to our higher aspirations. Dr. Chadwick's
recent contributions to the Nation, the
2ew York Times, and the Christian Reg
ister have given him a host of friends
among readers.
"Was Barabbas a PnMUher?
The recent news of the arrest at Buda
pest of a notorious gang of thieves, -whose
chief turned out to be a publisher, recalls
the story of George Auguttus Saia's pre
senting a Bible to a certain London pub
lisher who had handled some of his books.
The publisher was at a loss to understand
Just why ho should have been singled out
for this peculiar gift, until some time
after he discovered a slight change in
the wording of John xvill. -M. where the
phrase. "Now, Barabbas was a robber,"
was made to read "Barabbas was a pub
lisher." When Miss Consul's "Barabbas"
appeared with this text. on the title-page,
a reviewer, quoting the words in his re
view, evidently Indistinctly written, re
ceived the proof with the amazing state
ment, "Barabbas was a ratter." Cor
recting It, he deemed it wise to see the
review through to a finish in print, and
asked for another proof. Either the proof
reader was not given to searching the
Scriptures, or his zeal for truth led him
to overconsclentiousness, for the writer,
found his correction garbled to read,
"Barabbas was a rotter;" Harper's
Weekly.
The Higher Criticism.
A popular, a complete and a truly con
structive work under the title and on the
subject of "Old Testament Criticism and
the Christian Church" is announced for
Spring publication by Charles Scribner's
Sons. The author is John E. McFadyen,
professor in Knox College, Toronto, au
thor of "The Messages of the Prophetic
and Priestly Historians."
It is the Higher Criticism controversy
in a nutshell and for lay as well as
clerical readers. Just what the Higher
Criticism is, in Idea and In detail. Just
what it has accomplished and Just what
is "left" of the Bible, may be learned
from Professor McFadyen's pages as they
can be nowhere else.
The tone of his work is thoroughly con
servative if not in the specific at least
in the general sense, and his aim Is not
only to characterize and portray the, pres
ent state of Biblical research and the situ
ation growing out of this for the whole
Christian world, but to relate the results
of the higher criticism to the needs of
the church and harmonize helpfully the
current dissensions.
Literary Ifotes.
"Red-Headed Gill," a romance by Rye
Owen, a new author of unusual promise,
will be published shortly by Messrs. Henry
Holt & Co. It Is said to be full of stirring
incidents, and to hinge on the weird in
fluence of a piece of Indian silk.
Mr. Howells contributes a remarkable
story to Harper's for April, under the
title "Though Qne Rose From the Dead,"
which deals with the supernatural rela
tions between a peculiar man and his
wife. The story Is powerfully written
with a certain mystic "quality not com
monly found in Mr. Howells fiction.
Josephine Dodge Daskam's new serial.
Tho Autibography of a Baby, begins in
the April number of Harper's Bazar, and
is said to be the most amusing work Miss
Daskam has ever done. The reflections
of the baby upon the processes to which
he Is subjected by well-meaning parents
and nurses are extremely funny. The
serial will be illustrated by F. Y. Cory,
whose child pictures are famous for in
sight and humor.
The corporate name of tho Bowen-Mer-rill
Company, established in 18SS and in
corporated in 1SS5, has been changed to
the Bobbs-Merrill Company, thereby sub
stituting the name of the president" of the
company for that of the late Silas T.
Bowen, whose estate has had no Interest
In the business for a number of years.
This change of name is not caused by
any change In ownership or management,
nor does it involve any difference in tho
policies and purposes of tho establish
ment. The remarkable story of Helen Keller's
life, as told by "her autobiography, by John
Albert Macy"s biography, and bv her cor
respondence with well-known people, Is
now announced by Doubleday, Page & Co.
for publication In one book this month.
The most lncredltable achievements of
the girl who was left deaf, dumb and
blind by a mysterious illness at the age of
19 months, will make One of tho mastln
teraitlng and perhaps the most widely
read of biographical writings of the year.
A young writer, Benjamin Brooks, will
appear In the April Scribner's with a de
scription of the life "Below the Water
Line" on a greit ocean Hteamshlp. Mr.
Brooks served as assistant to the engi
neer on a steamer of 12,000 tons, and in
his article he has given a stirring account
of the romantic and hazardous life of the
men in the engine and stoke holds. As
Connolly has made the Gloucester skipper
live for thousands of readers, so Mr.
Brooks makes the engineer and his as
sistants human. His account has been
called the prose version of McAndrews
Hymn.
G. W. Dillingham Company announces
for publication this month, "HLs Friend
the Enemy." a stirring tale of the North
west, by William Wallace Cook; "Because
of Power." by Ella Stryker Mapes, to be
Issued in May; a third edition Of "The
Room With the Little Door." by Roland
B. Mollneux; a third edition of "A Coin
of Edward VII," by Fergus Hume; a sec
ond edition of 23.000 copies "Back to the
Woods," by tho author cf "John Henry,"
etc, and a handsome series of 50-cent
paper-covered popular works of Action, to
be Issued monthly during the Spring and
Summer.
Early in April the Lothrop Publishing
Company, of Boston, will issue Irving
Bacheller's new and third novel. "Darrel
of the Blessed Isle." This book has been
eagerly anticipated and the publishers be
lieve .that it will be recognized as Mr.
Bacheller's strongest work of fiction, hav
ing a vital motive, strength of plot and
interest of character, and written with all
the idyllic charm which is his when ho
tells of the North Country before the war.
Darrel, the character naming the book.
Is one of the most remarkable of mpdern
creations.
The C.I M. Clark Company has In prep
aration a novel of life on a Montana
ranch, by Frances Parker, a real ranch
girl. She is a daughter of Dr. Dayton
Parker, of Detroit. 22 years of age. and
has lived on her father's ranch among the
Bear Paw Mountains all of her life, ex
cept when with her uncle, an Indian
agent, on the Indian reservation In the
southern .part of Montana. She rides a
broncho, throws a lariat that might be
the envy of any cowboy, and can round
up a herd with the best of them. Her
writing Is said to have the Western dash
that might be expected of such a girL
She has not written of ranch life from a
distance; she does not write the impres
sions of a visit. She has written a ro
mance of the ranch life of which she has
been a part.
Some unpublished family letters of the
poet Longfellow appear in the April Har
per's in a most interesting article by
Mary Thatcher Hlgginson. niece of Long
fellow's first wife, whose, tragic death Is
remembered by all who are familiar with
the poet's life. There are also a number
Of letters written hv thA rt -r. t
fellow which throw Interesting and lntl-
sMue-jignis upon JUongieiloWs family
life, and tho more humorous and youth
ful side of his nature. A bit of his Im
promptu rhyme appears in a letter to his
youngest future sister-in-law:
Here comes Doctor Moses,
So stop all your noses.
For the smell of his clothes Is
JCot Otter of Hoses.
Dr. Moses having- been an honest coun
try practitioner, whom Longfellow thus
playfully Introduced to the family.

The harp that one through Tarn's halls
The soul of music shed
Now bancs as mute on Tarx's walls
Aa if that soul were fled.
Bo sleeps the pride cf former days.
So dory's thrill Is o'er.
And hearts that once beat hlch for praise
Now feel that pulse no more.
No more to chiefs and ladles bright
Tho harp of Tara swell:
The chord alone that breaks at nlarht
Its tale of ruin tells.
Thus Freedom now so seldom waxes.
The only sound she gives
Is when some heart, tndlsnant. breaks.
