The Illustrated.

The subject matter in the January number of the Illustrated Magazine is more within its proper sphere than has formerly been the case. The description, with illustrations, of "The South American Station of the Harvard College Observatory," is a very interesting article and suggests the field of work that the Illustrated can most successfully fill as one of the College magazines. The issue contains one poem that might well have been left in the hands of one of the other two periodicals that deal with such. Other articles are "Holworthy Hall," "Harvard Life One Hundred Years Ago," "A Morning in the Law School," "Harvard in the Third Glacial Epoch," and "Radcliffe College."
