Germantown, close by Philadel-
phia, is . demure old Quaker town.

library Of 10000 volumes, from which
fiction is rigidly excluded. The works
of Shakespeare, Byron, Pope, Dryden,
Thackeray and Kingsley are among
those that are kept out. Have you any
of Mark Twain's works here?" a Phila-
delphia Times reporter asked. "No;
his books Of travel, l suppose, We hard
ly considered reliable enough" the
librarian replied; al don't know,
though; there's some truth in them, l
suppOse--at least I've heard it said there
was. l heard it, though" said the
librarian, looking little dubious, in
way that didn't altogether satisfy me.
We don't put any plays in, and Shakes
pearc stays out on that ground. Of
course there are some works on general
literature that contain his quotations,
but we can't help that. We hold that
the mind should be led to take up
wholesome reading-books on travels or
natural history or biography-something
that will amuse and instruct together.
Our idea is that in reading person may

drinking whisky.
