President Garfield is quoted by the
Cleveland Leader as saying that for
twenty years after her husband died
his mother scarcely ever had the com­
forts, much less the luxuries of life.
“ And now,” added the President, “ it
has been my study to promote her
happiness and> com fort in every way
possible in order to make up for the
privation she suffered during my boy­
hood. She has the best room in my
house, and there is nothing she wants
but what she always has. Whenever
I go to Mentor she always accompanies
uio; when I return to Washington
she always comes back with nie.
Whenever site wishes to go to New
Hampshire to visit her relatives she
goes, and I always go with her. In
that manner I am trying to make up
to her what she was deprived of
during the days of her sore poverty.

1 T he R evised N ew T estament , O ffi ­
cial E dition .—The.University Presses'of
England, the-official printers of the Revis­
ed New Testament, have consented to is-
'sue for the American market very low-
priced editions. Each copy will bear the
certificate of thfl'revisers as a guarantee of
jts correctness. The cheapest edition will
be in Nonpareil type, .32mo, and will be
retailed at 15 cents paper bound, and 20
cents cloth bound. The next cheapest
edition will be in Brevier type, and will be
sold at 50 cents, doth bound. The books
will be beantifully printed as are all the
Bibles of the University Presses. May
17th has been fix«.d sb the day of issue in
both countries.
These cheap editions
will be sold-by I. K. Funk 4 Co., New
York.
2. T he C ompanion to the R evised N ew
T estament —explaining the reasons for the
changes made on the Authorized Version,
by Alex Roberta, D. D., member of the
English Revision Committee—will be is­
sued in cheap form through an arrange­
ment with the English publishers, by I.
K. Funk 4 Co., New York. The American
edition will have, bound in the same vol­
ume, a second book now preparing by a
member of the Anjericau Corumittee of
Revision, who has been connected with
the work from the beginpin^, and who is
acquainted with all the facts. This sec­
ond book will be an explanation of the
Appendix to the Revised New Testament.
It may not be generally known that, by an
arrangement between the two Committeea
of Reviaion, the changes suggested by the
American Committee, but which were not
finally adopted by the English Committee,
are to be publiahed as an appendix to the
Revised New Testament. The Camjyanion
volume will be then an explanation of all
tho changes thought advisable by either»
committee. This book will be indispensa­
ble to a right* understanding of the revis­
ion. To correct any misapprehension, it
is well to add that by far the greater part
of the changes suggested by the American
Committee were adopted by the English
Committee. This cheap edition of the
combined books, although authorized and
copyrighted, will'SoJd-foT 25 cents. Those
