The Mirror is a good monthly magazine published at Lewisburg, Pa. Its departments are well balanced. If they would fire the exchange man the paper would be greatly improved. He is too fresh. One of our best exchanges last year was the Monmouth Collegian, and it has not degenerated one whit this year. Its local column is bright and interesting, its editors are well written, and its literary department is better than three-fourths of the months we receive A solemn old scientist printed the fact that by bathing the feet in tepid water a man could double his circulation, and now all the editors are having tanks fitted to their office stoves. The report is current that James Russell Lowell is to be vice-president of Harvard College next year, and that he will be in full charge during President Elliot's absence. A printer boy went to see a preacher's daughter. The next Sunday the minister's text was: "My daughter is grievously tormented with the devil." EXCHANGE. "Did not the sight of the bonni-mless blue sen, bearing on its bosom white-winged deets of commerce, fill you with emotion?!" "Yes," replied the traveler, "at first it bid, but after a while it didn't fill me with anything. It sorter emptied me." We have often noticed that the best papers do not come from the best colleges. The papers at Yale and Columbia are poor compared with some of those which come from Ohio and Illinois colleges. We know of no way to account for it except by saying that the eastern men spend their spare time in athletic sports, while the western men employ themselves in a literary way. The Hamilton Literary Magazine is as good a college magazine as we would like to see. The Yale Courant is calling for more subscriptions. The Courant is the sleepy semi-monthly paper, and it is not to be supposed that it can keep its subscription list up to that of its neighbor the Daily News. The offener a paper comes out, and the more local news it contains, the better will its support be. This is true at Yale as well as at K. S. U. The Hilladale Herald has a circulation of 1,200 which is larger than any college journal in the country. We don't understand it, for the Herald is one of the poorest papers on our exchange list. We think they might at least improve the quality of the paper on which it is printed. The Badger and Press of the University of Wisconsin have combined under the name of University Press and Badger. The paper has not improved any under its new management. The Washburn Argo is one of the best appearing months on our table. Its new cover is a daisy. What has become of the K. S. U. song book which had such a boom a short time ago?—*Argo*. Alas, gone glimmering. Oberlin college was the first in this country to adopt co-education, which it did in 1846. The extra session seems to be very liberal. We think it was a mistake not to ask them for an appropriation for our library. Henry C. Burnett, one of K. S. U.'s best newspaper men, has gone to Santa Fe to accept a government office. Thus do our alumni come to the front. Examinations are over; we had to take them; we are sorry, but such is the fact. We are not discouraged, however, and will do our best to have them abolished before another twenty weeks rolls around. Dr. Lippincoff deserves great praise for the able manner in which he has watched the financial interests of the University. He has placed the matter of the pharmacy deficiency in such a light that there is now no doubt but we will get the appropriation asked for. Our professor of elocution should be allowed all of his time for that branch. It is one of the most difficult places in school, and it is unjust to the professor and pupil to have the work slighted. He should either have an assistant, or be allowed to drop his classes in English. A young lady will represent the Normal school at the state oratorical contest. We would like to see some of K. S. U.'s fair damsels take part in our oratorical work. We have some good speakers among the girls and there is no good reason why they should not enter some of our numerous contests. NOTES.
