last de cade of the nineteenth century and the earlier years of the twentieth. The most conspicuous members of this group, with the dates of their establishment were: The cosmopolitan (1886, founded in Rochester but removed to New York in 1887), Munsey's (1891), McClure's (1893), Everybody's (1899), The American (1906), Hampton's (1908). All of these were profusely illustrated, mostly with half-tone engravings; all of them were supported chiefly by the advertising pages—the improvement of the htype of writing is not even now extinct, it gradually lost its vogue. Though it may fairly be said to have begun with McClure's magazine, it was really symptomatic of a tendency of the time, and most other popular magazines with the exception of Munsey's indulged in it. One of the most famous series of muck-raking articles, in some ways more sensational than anything in McClure's, was Frenzied finance, by Thomas W. Lawson, published in Everybody's. Most of the magazines named above are still

he deserted camp of the enemy, on both sides of the road leading from Winchester, a number of examples of the vest armor of thin plates of steel covered with blue cloth in vest fashion, which had been thrown away in flight by the Federal soldiers. They were of the style of those secondly described in the following article, which appeared in the Times-Dispatch of July 31st, 1904. Two instances of the use of such armor are given by John W. Munson in his Recollections of a Mosby Guerilla, Munsey's Magazine, February, 1905, p. 784. One taken from the saddle of Major J. S. Reed, the Federal officer who fell in the engagement with Mosby's men at Dranesville, February 22, 1864. Lieutenant Ben. Palmer says that he had them at his home [in Richmond] and that he and others often amused themselves by shooting at Reed's breast plates. The other instance: On the same day [February 22, 1864] Fred Hipkins, of our command, captured one of Reed's men who had on breast plates. Many survivin

, who scowled in anger deep. She laid two grand old standards down to rest, And on her breast rocked weary war to sleep. From land and sea she swept mad passion's glow, Yet left a laurel for the hero's fame; She whispered hope to hearts in grief bowed low, And taught our lips, in love, to shape her name. Peace spreads her pinions wide from South to North; Black enmity within the grave is laid, The church towers chime their holy anthems forth, To still the thunders of the cannonade. Peple—Munsey. Here is the first peace monument of the nation, where the flag of the Southern cross and the Star Spangled Banner are graven on the same rock to say: Peace rules the day, where reason rules the mind. Nearly two thousand years ago Julius Ceasar invaded the British islands and forced the Celtic race to yield to his Roman Eagles; afterward the Saxons planted their banners on the land of the conquered people, and in turn the battle of Hastings brought Englishmen under Norman rule.

n experience was, doubtless, like that of others, and as more houses were built the family cow (and pig as well) was crowded out. Now nobody sees the quart measures of those days. After a time the practice of leaving each customer's supply in a small can came in vogue, and this is superseded by the glass bottles, with dealer's name, and of duly prescribed size, all according to law. The Mr. Hadley who preceded J. E. Ober may have succeeded Mr. Milliken. Mr. Ober sold out to Lockhart & Munsey; and there was T. H. Nourse, who also came from the Foot of the Rocks; also a Mr. Hobbs. These were the advance guard of the present army of local milkmen. In Mr. Wait's reminiscences, which follow, there is ample opportunity to read between the lines by comparison with present-day methods, remembering that the first railroad train passed through Medford only ten years before his driving milk wagon, and that the men he mentions relied mostly on their Boston customers' patronage.

A noble Old patriot. --We noticed on yesterday in the ranks of the "Bland Sharp Shooters" a man whose silver locks led us to make some inquiries in regard to him. We ascertained that his name is Rowland, his age sixty-five years, and that he was a volunteer in the Mexican war. Mr. R.'s friends tried to persuade him out of the notion of going on the present campaign, insisting that he was too old to endure the fatigues and hardships incident to the life of a soldier. But as well might they have tried to turn the current of the ocean. At the familiar tap of the drum the old warrior shouldered his knapsack and promptly stepped into rank. He is now performing the duties in camp with as much alacrity and is as eager for a brush with Lincoln's hirelings as the youngest of his comrades. All honor to the noble old veteran. Mr. Munsey another member of the same company is 55 years of age. The country has reason to be proud of such men.--Wytheville Telegraph.
