# Analysis of Page 39 from Life Magazine This page contains three distinct sections: **Top Left:** Two sketch cartoons labeled "The Sermon" and "And the Effect," depicting what appears to be a preacher addressing an audience, with the second sketch showing the audience's reaction. The caption reads: "Doan tell me de beasts of de fiel' ain't got no sense." **Top Right & Bottom:** Photographs titled "The Wonders of America" showing natural attractions: a geyser in Sacramento, California, and what appears to be catching chestnut fish in the Saco River, Maine. **Bottom Text:** A brief observation about actors, stating: "It is a curious fact that, while poor actors are almost invariably poor, it is far from being true that all good actors are good." The page also lists "New Books" at top left, including titles by Reverend S. Reynolds Hole, Jane Austen, and Anthony Hope.

My boy, my boy, how far you are from the kingdom of the new womanhood! Go, I cannot talk to you more now. Some day, if you return to me scarred with crime, I may venture again to associate with you. But not now—you contaminate me with your presence. Go!" The poet kissed the hem of her garment again, and vanished amid the trees. Droch. NEW BOOKS. (ORE MEMORIES, By the Very Reverend S.
