Five Hundred Returns.

On November 14, Mrs. Graybill (a missionary in
Mexico), published a card as V g for bundles of cali-
co, etc., for the use of the ML ' '\ll children of her
mission. In January, she wrote as follows:

As early as November 25, three bundles came roll-
ing in to iue, which we opened joyfully. Carefully
taking down names of senders, 1 put the goods
safely away in a trunk. Next mail brought six, and
next nine! and so the have tumbled in from all
States, from Kansas to Tew York, without skipping
one; until the people on the streets began to call
Mr. Hall “ Santa Claus,” as they saw him laden so
frequently with Christmas bundles, and the mer-
chantsfearcd I would injure their sales, for 'would
you believe it? I have bad bundles from more than
five hundred children i

From The Central School Agency,
Saint Louis, Mo.

Nothing would glV‘ us greater pleasure than to
recommend the 00in: It')' as the best advertising
medium known to us. Our returns from it not only
exceed in number those received fron other papers
but are of, adecidedly superior unlit)», clearly indi-
catiiu,r that the (Manner is read (by the best people in
the South. \Vc will cheerfully give you a formal
statement ofour opinion ifit Will be of any service.

From The Southwestern Presbyterian University,
Clarksville, 'l‘eun.

In renewing our advertisements with you this sea-
son, allow me to say that so far as I can judge from
correspondence we receive more inquiries from the
readers of your paper than any other. This we
might expect from your large subscription list.

From Maj. H. B. McClellan,
Sayre Female Institute, Lexington, Ky.
I have received larger returns from my advertise-
ment in your columns than from any other incansl
have employed.

From Miss M. 1. Baldwin,
Anguslachalc Institute, Staunton, Va.

1 consider your paper a marl ,. iiiablc medium for
advertising, far better than ' ilar papers, since
the number of :nlvcrtiscinents is not so great,and
they are read by the best class of Citizens. 1 would
be very sorry not to be able to insert my advertise-
mentevcry year.

Fruit! Col. Bennett H. Young,

Regent of licllewood Seminary, Anchorage, Ky.

I do not hesitate to say that the C(zn'ytfau (MI-ur-
mv‘ is the best advertising medium Within my knowl-
edge, 1 have been compelled 'io-do a great deal of
advertising in various ways during the past live
years, and I can say that the return from the ()[1-
.rw‘m'r has been double of that from any other
source. .

From Prof. W. H. Stuart,
Shelbyville Female College, Sliclbyvillc, Ky.

Having had occasion during the past nine years to
use the Christian (Harem/er in connection With many
other secular and religious paper san advertising

tion of your faithfulness as_publie servants, and en-
couragemcnt of your Christian enterprise, that I
have found it more valuable for the purpose uaiiicd
than all others, and I do heartily commend it to the
patronage of all.

From Dr. B. M. Wooley,
Atlanta, Ga.

I must say that the card in your paper has always
paid me well, in fact better than any other of my
knowledge, which is a good deal when lam using
thousands of papers.

ee-QHRBTIAN 0B$ERVER

(IN ITS SEVENTY-FIRST YEAR.)

AN EIGHT-PAGE PRESBYTERIAN WEEKLY,

Published. by

GQNVERSE 3e (20)., Louisville, Ky.

Is the Most Widely Circulated Presbyterian Weekly in the Southern States.

ITS CIRCULATION.

The circulation of the CHRISTIAN OBSERVER is about eleven thousand
copies week by week. After being read in the families of subscribers, it is often
loaned, and probably numbers fifty thousand readers every week.

ITS TERRITORY.

Its circulation is so distributed as to make it especially valuable for com—
manding business from all parts of the South. It is the leading paper in the
Southern Presbyterian Church—a denomination which numbers a hundred and
twenty thousand communieants, and has two thousand churches, and includes

.within its congregations a very large proportion of the intelligence and wealth in

every community. The OBSERVER is taken in most of these churches, and at
over tWO thousand post—offices, chiefly in Kentucky, Tennessee, West Vir—
ginia, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama,
Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas and Arkansas. No other religious paper covers the
entire territory of the Southern States as does the CHRISTIAN OBSERVER.

ITS SUBSCRIBERS.

The intelligent and enterprising people, who are its readers, are the leaders in
every community. They are the class that discriminating advertisers are eager to
reach. They have means and varied wants and tastes. They have families,
houses, farms, factories, stores, Sunday-schools, societies and churches to buy for.
Their wants are legion.

ITS INFLUENCE AS AN ADVERTISING MEDIUM.

Advertisements in the OBSERVER carry more influence than in most papers.
Unlike many papers, which, in order to exist, are disposed to take all advertise—
ments that will pay them, the CHRISTIAN OBSERVER has an adequate support from
its subscription list, and will not take an objectionable advertisement at
any price. Its readers know from a long and tried acquaintance that the appear-

 

 ance of an advertisement in its columns is a strong indication that the advertiser
is considered by the editors worthy of confidence. For fifty-seven years the
paper has been underits present management (father and sons) and has acquired
that influence with its readers, which belongs to a friendship that has extended in
many instances over two generations. The advertisements are neatly printed
on very superior paper, and the pages beinior trimmed, none of them are hidden on
inside forms, as in the uncut eight—page sheets. The paper is read with care and
often filed for future reference.

The testimonials of those who have tested the value of the OBSERVER as an ad—
vertising medium are very emphatic.

l Reprinted front The Alunisl,]uly,19113.]

It will presently appear that this work

is notably. interesting on seve‘al ae-
eounts apart from the gravity of its
suhjeet. That the raee problem, parv
tieularlyin the form in which it eon-
l'ronts the American people, is indeed a
momentous suhjeet’, none perhaps will
deny. But who is the author? \\’llat
are his eredentials? ls there good rea»
son to suppose him qualified to under«
talie so formidable a task? ls llt‘t'll])ill)lt‘
of eoneeiving‘ it adequately in lmth its
ahstraet and its eonerete hearings. in its
present and its future signilieanee, as at
oneea most intrieate problem of pure
seienee and a {rightfully eomplieate
p‘aetieal question for the deeision ot'
statesmen? ls he one from whom may
he expeeted a really serious, enlightened
plea. free alike l'rom ignoranee. from
provineial prejudiee. and from Minding
sentiment? Such are the questions that
husy men, before giving serious at»
tention to any discussion of a great
sul)_ieet,are naturally wont to ask. and
in these erowded (lays ol ahounding‘
authorship they are right.

Douhtless many will he interestedin
the information that TIN-Color Linewas
written by the dmtlfling‘ “David” of the

 

 Reign ofLan', though in truth it must
be said that the “original” of David was
much transformed and but little trans-
figured or glorified by Mr. Allen’s fan-
tasy. The book in hand is thetirst of its
kind by a mathematician; and all the
qualities of the mathematical mind, ex-
ceptng that of proverbial dryness, are
evident throughout, in its grasp and
penetration, in the clearness and steadi-
ness of its vision, in the sharp precision
with which its problems are stated, and
in the boldness, energy, and relentless
logical rigor with which theyare hand-
led. Professor Smith, who is head of the
mathematical department of Tulane
University, is among the first Americans
who gained the doctorate at a German
I7niversity, where he won prizes for
brilliant achievement in the austerest
ofthe sciences, physics and mathematics.
As an inspiring; teacher of “the univer-
sal art apodictic” and as a writer on
geometry both pure and analytic, and
on infinitesimal analysis, his reputation
is national. Thepresent book, however.
is not his first achievement outside the
domain of mathematics. Neither is it
his first essay beyond the limits of pure-
ly academic authorship. Far from it.
His Life of joules Sidney Rollins,
“ ’ufer (/uiir'etsittutis i‘lissourieusis,"
written by request and printed for pri»
vate distribution, his series of papers
in defense of the gold standard—ma
defense which in view of his Southern
residence and professional connection
seems scarcely less than heroic, demon»

 

 

stratingg; both patriotism and spiritual
independenceithese taken together
with his numerous contributions to the
discussion of the taritt question, will
serve to indi fate something of the range
of his interest and activity, without
pausing; to name the chief products of
his pen, a series of critical memoirs in
the field of New Testament literature
that have secured him and American
Biblical scholarship the profound re-
spect of critical circles in England. Hol-
land, and Germany.

“They knew not," said Leibnitz of his
friends who f 'ared he would specialize
too narrowly,“that my mind could not
be satisfied with one kind of things."
It may indeed be that Leibnitz was, as
lietguincey calls him,“the last of the
universals." It is consoling to know.
however, that any such tine nmf is at
best but a partial truth, for, if inexpert-
ness is the curse of the world, the defect
of expcrtness is depth at the expense of
br ~adth, and many a larger question has
to await the single intelligence that shall
b * at once deep and (‘oluprehensii'e. in
this view it is matter for just pride and
congratulation that our most difficult
social problem has received painstaking:
study and ‘andid tr *atment by an Amer-
ican scholar of whom it has been said
that in his best moments of well—being
h ‘ app *ars to hold the entire body of the
intellectual achievements of the race in
something very like true perspective. If
this seem to be {ulsome praise, we admit
the app *aranee but deny the reality. It

 

 accords at any rate, with our sober
judgment deliberately formed in the
course of years. .»\nd we gladly record
the judgment here as valid for us in
despite ofthe fact that the conclusions
of the “Brief,” while they commend
themselves to our understanding, are
far from compatible with our liveliest
sentiments and severely condemn our
former standard of conduct. For We
admit, or avow, or confess, as you will,
that in the matter of social equality our
sympathies have hitherto favored the
the standard of individual as distin-
guished from racial excellence. We
vividly re‘all, in view of l’rofessor
Smith's territ‘tic arraignment, the fearful
risk we assumed of social ostracism
when as a resident
