Excerpt from A Treasury of Illustration The teacher of men must himself perceive the truth, and then convey to others what has thus become his own. He must be both a seer and a sayer, whether he sees with the material or the spiritual eye, and whether he speaks in words, tones, forms or colors. The power and permanency of his work depend upon the scope and accuracy of his seeing, on the one hand, and the sincerity, sympathy, and felicity of his saying, on the other. The function of saying includes also a further act of seeing; for the prophet, poet or artist must know not only his own theme, as it appears to himself, but also the nature and use of his instrument of expression, and the minds of those whom he seeks to lead to his own standpoint, that they may receive his vision. In this double equipment, Henry Ward Beecher was supremely great. Phillips Brooks and Charles Spurgeon called him the Shakespeare of the modern pulpit, doubtless in recognition, not merely of the richness and variety of his gifts, but chiefly of the Shakespearean faculty of perceiving the aspects of many-sided human life and character, and of presenting their relations in images which remain when the steps of argument and the theories of philosophy have faded away. These expositions by illustration are characteristic of genius and inspiration. The Bible is full of them. Job, without arguing tediously the omnipotence of God, depicts it in volcanoes, thunderstorms, strange monsters of sea and land, and the orderly procession of the stars. Moses compares the brief earthly life of man to a story soon told, a flower soon withered, a vapor soon dispersed. David sings the Shepherd Psalm, and fixes forever in universal consciousness the sense of Divine providence. Paul summarizes the relativity of our knowledge, by saying "we see in a glass, darkly," - forestalling and correcting in advance the modern agnostic, who professes not to see at all; and reveals in a flash the true theory of evolution, when he says that the whole creation has travailed in successive births from the beginning, each new generation being an upward step, divinely ordained "in hope." Above all, Jesus Christ, in parable and picture, gives revelations of truth and types of character which survive all changes of language, social organization and intellectual system.

Excerpt from The Bookworm: An Illustrated Treasury of Old-Time Literature Either the taste for collecting bookplates is much more widely spread than is commonly supposed, or the study of Heraldry is being largely revived, if we may judge by the fact that the Ex Libris Society now numbers over 350 members. As the society was founded less than three years ago, such a result speaks well for the energy of the council and officers. The annual general meeting and conversazione will be held in January or February next, at St. Martin's Town Hall, when there will be an exhibi tion of ancient heraldic documents and charters, in addition to the collections of scarce bookplates formed by the members. It is understood that owing to the annual change of officers, Mr. James Roberts Brown will relinquish the post of chairman, in which case the present hon. Treasurer, Mr. Walter Hamilton, will be pro posed for that office, and some other member of the council will be elected to take charge of the Society's funds, which are in a very flourishing condition, and are expected to show a handsome balance at the end of the year. Whilst on the topic of bookplates, it may be mentioned that besides the new edition of Mr. Castle's book one is also promised, by Mr. Charles Dexter Allen, on American ex-libris,0 UR note-book.
