TJhit book deals with the history j

early 6o's. The leading event* ate
set before the reader in a very Re
tractive manner and forcible stMW.
It deals with the forces that are so
vital not only to the North, but-the
South as well, more heavily than
he does to merely the narrated
events, special attention being given
to-the successive causes which have
redulted in placing the United
States at the top as a world powtj-
He brjogs out how in the last
forty years the poptilskRih lias
trdbled. Wealth increased in a
much greater ratio, and while as

Kiag Lear."
•hakespeare—One of his four
erpieces, in fact King Lear is
1 pnt at the apex of Shake-
re’s achievement, and by many
judges at the head of the dramatic
literature-of the world. The story
was did and bad already been made
subject of a play, a crude effort by
-some nameless playwright during
the experimental stage of Eliza-
hethian drama.
Xlhere, as was his constant cus-
toi|», Shakespeare followed the
main lines of the story as it was
given him. Here too, as always in
Shakespeare, if we pierce to the
core of his meaning the real trage
dy is a spiritual one.
r 'I King Lear" is an imperious
nature, wayward by temperament,
and made most incapable of self-
government by long indulgence of
his. passionate whims. At the
opening of the play we see him
striving to find a refuge from him-
| self by surrendering all his wealth,
and power in exchange for abso
lute! love. Love i* the element up
on which the old “liing" extant,,
and age, instead of abating thi4
and ;bd remembered forever. It
involve^ the highest responsibility,
the greatest labor,and con- hunger, has made the craving more
* trifle with its con- imperious. He demaudei love not
only ill spirit but in letter. A* if
| in sympathy with the chaos in
Our Exchanges. Leak’s soul, the elements ( break
the best exchanges on lo«|e; and in the pauses of the
Acade bla-it we hear the noises of violent
Record, a neatly gotten up crimes, curses, heart-broken jest

the wandering ‘ tongue at madness.
