Habits of Reading.

All young people read good deal
now but 1 do not sec that great deal
comes of it, They think they have to
read good many newspapers, and Il
good many magazines. They are very
entertaining. But it is not always GER
tain that the reader gets from them just
what he reads. On the other hand, it
is certain that people who only read the
current newspapers and magazines get
very little good from each others socio-

the same intellectual food. You hear
them repeat to each other the things
they have all read in the Daily Trum-
