A valuable book, written especially for parents, tea elvers and ail those who are Interested In the moral training of children, la "Moral Education." by Edward Howard Griggs. It la recognized generally in America that the chief am of education ia to develop noble and womanhood, but there is great confusion as to how this end can best be obtained.

Mr. Origgs seeks to discuss, 'simply and plainly, the best ways of teaching; these valuable ethical lessons. He thinks that the greatest need of educational methods to day is sanity. Mr. Urigga Insists throughout his.

book on the uniqueness of each personality, and the consequent necessity of constant study of the child by parents and teach era Ills book ought to be welcomed by Jparents.

Huebscn.) i i Adam Smith. A new life of "Adam Smith" Is written by Francla W. Hirst in the English Men of Letters series. Mr. Hirst bases much of his new material upon the "Lectures" discovered and published in V06.

The author succeeds in making a delightful and interesting book, even to the lay reader. His style is clear and his language simple and concise. He emphasises the personality of the philosopher, while elucidating his theories of ethics and economics. Adam Smith wss born In 1723, In the "lang town" of Kirkcaldy, a short while after his father's death. His mother lived to a great acre, and saw her boy rise step by step to fame.

He received his higher education at Glas MILEAGE PROVISION IS REJECTED BY HOUSE APPROPRIATION OF $190,000 IS FINALLY STRICKEN OOT. I BOTH BRANCHES ADJOURNED WASHINGTON, March 4. Both houses of the Fifty eighth Congress adjourned at midnight. all business before them having been disponed of. One of the laat acts on the part of the House was to recede from its disagreement on the congressional mileage provision of the general deficiency bill, thus passing the bill finally.

Soma persuasion was necessary on the part of the Senate conferees before the House members would agree to let go of the $190,000 which they had expected to get. At first they refused to agree to strike the provision from the deficiency bill. i When the cenferees from both Houses met ae ain tha House members concluded to weaken, and the attempted steal was cut off. 1 From the moment the doors were opened until late in tlie night the galleries were packed, while outside in the corridors were thousands anxious to gain entrance to the chamber. A feature of the House proceedlrurs was the desire of the members to abstain from obstructive tactics and permit the disposition of business.

Speaker Cannon wielded the gavel over the entire session and maintained the best of order. Mr. Hemes way presented the conference report on the sundry civil appropriation biil. and It was agreed to. Tbe action finally passed the bill.

MARCH 1905. IEVV OF NEW BOOKS LITERARY NOTE gow, studying morals tinder the able and eloquent philosopher Hutcheson. Jn Glasgow the boy learned to value the English connection, and he soon eaw that the old order waa ctvang ing. From Hutcheson he learned tbe formula, which hia own philosophy waa to develop and interpret, "the greatest happi nes of the greatest number." Hutcheaon stew! for free speech, free thought, the spirit of inquiry and reform of all aorta. vltn him and Adam Bmlth it waa a real relia ion to see that society should be bet ter rovemed, to increase the happiness of mankind by diffuaing useful truths and exposing mischievous errors.

In 17W Smith, at the age of seventeen, entered Oxford with a scholarship. Oxford was at that time sunk rn intellectual apathy and rloJjh. narrow and bigoted. But in Oxford The gained tbe liberal knowledge of ancient and modern literature that enriches all his writings. Jn 1745 he returned to Kirkcaldy without any definite aim in view.

Jiere he bega.n to write and to deliver lectures on natural liberty and free trade, which won him reputation and popularity. In 1750 Smith accepted the chair of logic at Glasgow, "read a Latin dissertation on the origin of ideas, signed the Westminster Confession and vowed fidelity to the authorities." A little later he waa appointed to the chair of ethics, which he was to occupy for twelve years. This was perhaps the most, important event of his life, supplying him the intellectual stimulus which, he needed. first important book was published in 1759 as the theory of moral sentiments. The views In i these lectures are remarkably radical and modern.

Mr. Hirst proceeds with Smith's life and writings, discussing each book aa It came in clironological order, instead of reserving discussion of Smith's philosophy until the last. In this way one may see the growth of certain ideas and the changes tn views as bis years Increased, and. the book is made much more vital and natural. Tha greatest of theae writings were the Wealth iof Nations, 1778.

Moral SentimentsJ before mentioned, and Lectures on Justice and Police. In 1778 he removed to Edinburgh, where he "walked every day to hia official duties attired in a light colored coat, white silk stockings and broad brimmed bat, holding a cane over his shoulder, and talking and smiling to himself." He never mar ried, and Mr. Hirst describes his affection for his mother and cousin, and for his dearest frienda Hume and Stewart. He gives in Interesting detail Smith views on politics of the day, his loyalty to Fox and Burke and the Whig party. He died in 17SI0.

and his friends were Indhrnant that his death made but little stir. Tet a German author of the day called him "next to Napoleon! the mightiest monarch in Europe." and now he stands with the greatest philosophers of the day both In England and France. Smith has iaaued from the sec I union of a professorship of morals, from the drudgery of a commissioner of. customs, to sit at the councils of princes. His word has been proclaimed hy the agitator, conned by the atatesraan and printed in a.

thousand statutes." Mr. Hirst's Life of Smith Is admirable and scholarly. (New York: The Macmil lan Company.) i Kin Hubbard's Sketches, Kin Hubbard, of the art staff of The News, has brought out his new book of sketches of the Legislature, There are several hundred of these pen portraits for which Mr. Hubbard la famous and which, first published In the columns of The News, have done much to lighten the dignity of our State Senators and Representatives. All of the sketches are good humored, though sometimes they hit at weaknesses of character, and all of them.

even thoae seeming the most carelessly drawn, are excellent likenesses. The book has an attractive cover design In colors, and it contains also some of MA. Hubbard's "Abe Martin" sketches with their accompanying humorous text. The book makes a handsome souvenir of the Gen eral asiemoiy.

The House adjourned sine die to day after a session of 'less than two hours, whose chief feature was the presentation of a massive silver loving cup to Speaker Caiinon by the entire membership of the Housp and a cup to John Sharp Williams by the Democratic minority. A conference report on the bill prohibiting the selection of timeber lands in lieu of lands In forest reserves was agreed to, finally passing the bill. Hemenway' Figures.

John Van Buren is a young Uemocmllc politician, who outgrowe the nurrow field of Schenectady, goes to New York, where an honored family name readily opens the political portals to him. Not many of the operations of Tnmmanv Hall are overlooked by the author. The police courts, the City Hall and Tammany and other political cluba blither up the social scale are fully portrayed, together with a fund of political experiences. Van Buren sees how men are bought like vegetables in a city market, after lie becomea member of the legislature, and he too. how political iobs are slipped out of his hands and disposed of before he is aware that the schemes have disappeared from his control.

He learns to worship at the shrine of the Tammanv chieftains as others of his kind worship there. In time, politics become a part of him. and. as does everyone in the machine, politics Is placed ahead of business and all other affairs. There Is a int of romance In the book, but it frequently disappears Ip the swirl of political activity.

(New York: Harper Brothers.) Tht House of Hawley. Few Western authors get nearer to real social conditions In the smaller towns and communities than Elmore Elliott Peake. who faithfully reflects the little affairs of everyday life as one may see It on every hand In almost every county seat of Indiana. He is an Illinois man, who shows close kinship with the people of that State. The House of Hawley Is one of this author's best efforts.

It la a atory of that part of southern Illinois known as "Egypt," where meadows, wheat field, orchards and strawberry and melon patches abound, and where the well to do farmers live In rambling, roomy house, aa did their ancestors In Virginia.

Appleton The Quest or John Chapman. A book which should have particular Interest for. ijeople or Indiana ana omer Statea of the Middle "West is the Rev. NeweU Dwlght Hillla's "The of John Chanman." The gray haired grand fathers of to day feel an Intimate ac nuaJntance with John Chapman. but what know of him has come to them largely as folk lore from their fathers.

A valuable study of the principles of personality is "From Epicurus to Christ." by William De Witt Hydr. president of Bowdotn aked why some men with moderate talents and mediocre equipment succeed, where others with greater ability and better preparation fail; why some women with plain features and few accomplishments charm while others with ail advantages repel! we are wont to conceal our ignorance behind the vagrie term personaiitv. Undoubtedly the deeper springs of personality are below the threshold of consciousness, in hereditary traits nud early training. Still some of the higher elements of personality rise above this threshold, are reducible to jhilosopIiic.al principles aitd amenable to rational control." llydettdiscusaes Ove of these great principles that govern personality; the principie of the Epicurean pursuit of pleasure, genial but ungenerous; the stoic law of self control, strenuous but forbidding: the Platonic plan of aubordination. sublime but ecetic, trie Aristotelian Fense of proportion, practical but unln Tlring and the Christian spirit of love.

Dr. Hyde discussions of these principles are enriched with numerous Quotations from all kinds of literature. Walt vv hitman he cll the American pa Kan. ho, together with Stevenson, presenta epicureanism mixed with nobler eiem.ma 'At on the best and the worst rendering of epicureanism into verse is Fitzger u'nr avnayyam.

Epictetus is the beat examrle of the stoic in ancient literature, while its most propnet ts Maurice Maeterlinck. Epicureanism tells us how to a ain tire: Stoicism how to hear niln Rui is not so simple; it Is a question of the worth of things and the relative valuea of iniags we suner ror. Plato squarely attacks this larger problem.

He laid down for all time the great principle that the due usordination of the parts to the whole is the essence of righteousness In a state. The note of earnest and aggressive righteousness without which no personality can be sound or strong, has been struck by Hebrew prophets and Christian apostles, by Savonarola and Fichte and a host of heroic souls, but by uu one more cieariy man oy flalO. The end of life, which Aristotle called happiness, he defined as the identification of one's self with some large social or Intellectual object, and the devotion of ail one a powers to its disinterested service. It is Carlyle's gospel of the Jtilessednesa or work. Christianity is not a pnuosopny, out a religion; not a doctrine, but a life; not the performance of a task.
