Mount Vernon, the
Home of W ashington
(From the Washington Herald, April 17)
The beauties of Mount Vtrnon, and a
■hurt account of its interesting history
are written about in an exceptionally
delightful way in the above-named book
of about fifty pages. The author shows
himself to be thoroughly acquainted
with the subject, anti in an easy manner
takes one from Washington to Mount
Vernon, there to depict in detail the
well-marked points of the greatest object
of interest. Although the book is writ
ten from a litterary standpoint, as is
evidenced by a concise and graceful
style, it would well act as a guide for
the pilgrim visiting .Mount Vernon for
the tirst time, and es{»ecially so for the
visitor who has a deep regaid for the
traditions which clothe the nation’s
greatest shrine.
Each visitor will l>e the better and
wiser for the reading of this volume and
in laying it aside will surely be im
pressed with great feelings of reverence
for the founder of this republic. The
volume is not only valuable for its edu
cational matter, and as a thoroughly
good guide, but also as an example of
fine book making. The execution is
perfect ;the printers’ art was never better
shown, and the illustrations are such as
to command the admiration of all. It
contains exceptionally well executed
half tones of the Mount Vernon Home,
the Potomac, the grounds, as also of
George and Martha Washington.
In
the descriptions of the parts of the house
the out-buildings, and the various uten
sils, the manner of living at Mount
Vernon 100 years ago is plainly painted,
and the difficulties clearly set forth by
comparison with the unbounded re
sources of our own time.
The story of Washington never can
be told too often. His spirit should ever
permeate the people of the land. The
great work he did, stands as an example
for all time, and his devotion to his
country, his self-sacrificing, his long en
during toil, and above all his exulted
patriotism, will ever make him the ex
emplar of the nation. He is truthfully
portrayed by the author of this little
book. It is a book all should read.

Samuel L» Clemens used to relate
on the lecture piatform a comedy of

to illustrate his dictum that there are

story, which is English, and the hu
morous story, which is American - and
that the latter is the only hard kind
to tell. He recounted how a young
swain was rejected simply because of

much, and those who have heard Mark

and conscientiously whistling out of

Miss Margaret Lawrence was an el
derly maiden lady who, having pined
for a mission, finally decided to take
one upon herself. She selected the
amelioration of the criminal classes.
She visited them in prison, and many
o f them talked with her so i>ersuaslve-
ly about the unfortunate circumstances
that had led them to become criminals
that she came to believe they were all
victims of their surroundings. This led
her to advocute mercy toward them.
Miss Lawrence, who was wealthy,
founded a society for helping criminals

the value of meat meal or tankage as

this they must be supplied with the
proper amount of protein in their ra

The boar should be provided with
a shade so located as to give free cir
