Her modesty and timidity aeemed to make her more lova­ble, and all who knew her loved her . She deservedly ranked among the best in her class.

One living far from the active world would naturally lead bat a narrow and secluded li~ ; he who lives in the busy mart and come in contact with many toiling thou nds, ees more of humanity and has a hroad r view of life; but lbe man who 10\'8 literature take a still more extended view. lIe commnnes with the b st and greatest men, from Il Iller, Dante, ,hake peare, Go the, do" n to the pre ent day: Takes note of all that i going on in the world, ym­pnthizes with the mi. ionaries in Africa, the ufferer in Ir land, take an inter­est in 'ihill of Ru ia, es how lhe broade'l mind of the century are "iew­ing lhe "ital que tions of the age, look at the deplh of the Rca, the urfaceof the moon, and the spot.'! on the sun through the eyes of th scienti t, becomes 0. man of broad and liberal mind, in ympathy with the world, a lrne c mopoJitan.

How grand a work is being rried on by the lit rary circl r ntly organized throughout th country. They are a much n cd 'u bl lug to the women who ar waring ont their liv and ern hing their youth in tread-mill toil, inc th y awaken a love for literature which hall bri~hl n their lives, and enlarg and n­nobl th ir mind~, litl.ing them Ollt of the dull routine of daily labor, and opening to th m n w avenues of study and thought.

BleS! cd is the man who is endowed with a. love for good literature!
