McClure’s Magazine for February
“McCLURE’S MAGAZINE” for February is a most excellent number of an excellent magazine. It contains reproductions of thirty life-portraits of Washington, revising to some extent the common and traditional pictures, all taken from one painting, but not considered the best likeness of “the Father of His Country.” There is also a sketch of his career by W. P. Trent. An interesting article is “The Making of the Bible,” by H. J. W. Dam, showing how God has wondrously preserved his Word, and the number of Bibles now going to the world, especially through the famous Oxford Press. “The Bell-buoy” is a noble poem by Rudyard Kipling. Hamlin Garland furnishes an interesting paper on “Grant in the Mexican War.” This number contains a marvelous amount of information for ten cents. For sale by all news dealers. Price $1.00. Address, S. S. McClure Co., 141-155 E. 25th Street, New York City.
