Momoriam” is as note Me an c * aa modern literature ai forda of tblrtwt and noblest mission of letter*. Though entitled an "elegy" and written to commemorate the virtue*> of the poet’s personal friend—and in this aenae appropriately restricted in H*range —it takes up and develops the great laeaa at God and the universe, of soul and duty and destiny, at MU* death and immortality, of good and evß, right and wrong, of science, philosophy, ethics and religion—bo as, in a word, vir tually to cover the spacious area of truth and to make the reader feel that he is dealing with the profoundest problems oi earth and heaven. Hence "In Memoriam is something more and greater than a mere poem. It is a kind of compendium of theology and philosophy, of the divin ities and humanities in new and striking form, furnishing food for thought to ev ery thinking man who reads it Hence in our mind the fame of Tenny son and its permanence rest more upon such • product as this than upon any oth er of his works. "Maud, ""The Princess, “Lady Godiva," "Enoch Arden,” are choice and attractive poems, but scarcely to be cited in the same connection with this poctlo- masterpiece.

I employed an old physician and then went to Kentucky. I then went to Hot Springs and remained two months. Noth ing seemed to cure me permanently, al though temporary relief was given me. I returned home a ruined man physically, with but little prospect of ever getting well I was persuaded to try Botanic Blood Balm (B. B. B.) and to my utter astonish ment it quickly healed every ulcer. Z. T. Hallebton, Macon, Ga. Hair Brushes, Tooth Brushes, Duster Brushes, Shoe Brushes, Combs, etc. J. N. Habbib & Son.
