• The Correct Writers.
There is riot a single great author in
our literature in whose works numer-
ous errors have not been pointed out,
or thought to be pointed out. They are
charged with violating rules involving
the purity if not the permanence of the

fer;nc,; follows from the situation thus
revealed. The ability to write English
correctly does not belong to the great
crtcre ot our speech. It is limited to
the obscure men who have devoted
themselves to the task of showing how
far: these vaunted writers have fallen
short of the ideas of linguistic pro-
priety entertained by their unrecog-
nized Letters. As a result of these
critical crusades there is no escape
from the dismal conclusion that the

COUNTESS OF ABERDEEN
A Worker for the Good of Humanity.
A warm-hearted, earnest woman, serene, simple, sincere and sympathetic,
with a special talent for human helpfulness and inspiration to higher living—this
is Lady Aberdeen.
In "Guisachan," the romantic Scotch estate in Invernesshire, Ishbell, youngest
daughter of Sir Dudley Coutts Marjoribanks, later Lord Tweedmouth, was born
in 1857. A right royal welcome was given to visitors in this hospitable home
in the Highlands, and from the lips of the prominent statesmen that gathered
there little Ishbell learned polities at an age when she should still have believed
in fairy tales. When she was eleven, a young man of twenty-one who had ridden
across the country, lost his way and unknowingly trespasses on the Marjoribanks
estate. A chance interview with Sir Dudley proved hint to be John. Campbell
Gordon, son of Sir Dudley's good old Parliamentary friend, Earl of Aberdeen,
and he was invited to spend the night. The love at first sight between the two
young people led to their marriage in 1877.
In 1886, Gladstone offered to his friend, young Lord Aberdeen, the post
of Viceroy of Ireland. It was a delicate, difficult position, strewn with pitfalls
which taxed the watchfulness, tact and diplomacy of the Viceroy to avoid. There
was great distress in the country; the crops and fisheries had failed, the people
grimly tolerated the occupants of Dublin Castle because protest was useless; but
soon the sunshine and glow of affection from Lord and Lady Aberdeen melted
the stolid, sullen reserve, and love reigned where force had proven worse than
useless. Perhaps the Countess, herself a descendant of the old Irish and Scotch
kings, struck some sympathetic chord that vibrated in kinship and unity. Her
practical nature realized that the people shotild be helped to help themselves
through their own labor, not pauperized by gifts, She devoted herself with great
energy to reviving the domestic industries of Ireland—weaving, knitting, em-
broidery and lacc-making—and made the wearing of Irish poplin an essential
to admission to official functions at the Castle.
In Canada, where Lord Aberdeen was Governor-General from 1803-8 they
endeared themselves to the people by their many acts of kindness. The Coun—
tess' first effort in syndicating sunshine and sweetness was her organization of
the "Onward and Upward Society" among the tenants, domestics and the poor
on the Scottish estates, which has spread over the world. The Women's
Liberal Federation which she organized and led as President has over 80,000
members; but her club work and labors for humanity never for a moment eclipse
her home, \kith her three children remaining in her loving care.
