are to beneficial reading what air is
to the lungs. No one who reads good
books as they should be read, no one
who profits by the superiority, which
alone makes them worth the reading,
will ever be guilty of sacrificing to
them, either duty or dignity.
Books that are read in the calm, re-
Elective spirit-without which they
are valueless, will never leave the
reader with throbbing head and be-
numbed brain.
True novels-I mean those crea-
tons so aptly colled "heart HISTORIES"
were not written for the qualification
of sentiment alone, and the lessons
they would inculcate do not teach us
to become less worthy of ourselves.
But only those who dive deep find
the pearls.
So like the wise Benjamin Frank
lin, let us read, read, read, but let us
give to it only the time and place that
will elevate it into a source of instruc-
ton as well as recreation. REBA.

How to Read.

When Benjamin Franklin was a
little boy, and asked the questions
that puzzled older heads, his mothers
invariable answer was tread! read!

But this wise mother did not say

People who read anything are apt
to acquire little; people who read
anywhere are the very ones who have
suggested the remarks we are about
to make.
The love of reading, if properly di-
rected, is blessing ifallowed TO in
fluence us without regard to Judge
ment or discretion, it may prove a
lasting curse.
A young girl who rises in the morn
ing with bleared eyes and disfgured
mien, because she has sat up half the
night reading, lowers not only her
own self-respect, but degenerates into
positive evil the book she has been
reading-I care not if it be a Milton
or Walter Scott. A girl who will
sit all day with her hair in curl-pa-
pers because she is too deep in Lady
Macbeth to take them down, offers
an insult to the genious that would,
in all probability, turn her own char
acter into a subject for ridicule and
adherence.

it down to the level of her own reek'

The boy stood on the burning roof,
Where he for life had fled;
The building, being quite freproof,
With flames was painted red.
Jump yelled the horror-stricken crowd,
"Jump, hubby, from the ridge"
II can't" he dancing, shrieked aloud,
This amt no Brooklyn bridge"
Huge tongues of flame, in fendish Joy,
A.darting out like mad.
Commenced to lick that noble boy
AS if they were his dad.
The fireman tried, in sad despair,
That gallant youth to soak:
Alas? No stream could reach him there
And he began to smoke.
Then came a voice of thunder sound
From one cool man below;
"I'll save you, boy-unless you're
drown'd--
Jump when say to CO."
Then snatching up the hose, he aimed
A mighty Ctream on high.
"Jump on that water" ne exclaimed,
"And grab it tighter die"
Hurrah With one terrific scream
Out leaped the little kid,
And, clinging on that solid stream,
Safe to the ground he slid.

TANDARD MEANWHILE, TENNEssEE-sATURDAY DECa5 1886
There was a quick, suppressed cry,

There was a quick, suppressed cry,
no other reply.
"Be truthful, Lenore. Tell me
your heart. If you love me, trust to
me to discover your whereabouts and
come to you"
There was a pause, then she tremu-
lousy said: ~ have never seen you,
but my heart tells me to trust.
know you are good and noble, and /
am willing to leave my fate in your
hands,"
Even as she said the words she ut
tered cry of alarm. Then a gruff
mans voice spoke: $50 to your
room Lenore. Search for the rascal,
Antonio, and bring him to me-"
There was quick trampling Of
feet and the sound of crushing shrub
berry as if men were breaking through
it. Then another mans voice spoke:
"He has escaped, Your Excellence"
she cannot escape me. This is a
fine piece of business, surely-the
daughter of Count VILLAIN holding
secret meetings with some common
vagabond, Lenore shall take the
veil"
eyes," / cried, "the bridal vail,
Count. / shall pay respects to you
today"
Then leaving them to get over
their establishment, / returned to the
house in high spirits. The name,
Count VILLAIN, had given me clue
to the whereabouts of Lenore. The
dwelling of which l have spoken as
situated ocross the plain and opposite
the rock was the residence of Count
VILLAIN. l had met the old gentle
man in the city and formed speak
ing acquaintance with him. That
afternoon presented myself to the
Count, and after amazing him with
my story, which few stsconvinced
him was true, formally proposed for
his daughters hand. AS my wealth
and social position were well known,
he offered no. objections and his daugh-
ter was sent for.
/ had never seen so lovely wo-
man, nor one who so perfectly en-
bodied my highest conception of
grace and beauty.
"Lenore," said /, 81 have come as
/ promised. Now we meet as solid
and material beings, are you willing
to ratify the contract we made when
we were only voices, Lenore? Your
father gives us permission"
1t may be supposed that received
a satisfactory answer, when the good
natured Count found it discreet to
turn away his eyes during my recep-
ton of it.
AS to the strange circumstances
which were the means of uniting us,
a series of tests revealed a remarka-
BILE acoustic property in the rock by
which persons standing in certain po-
sitions with reference to it were able
to hear each other with ease more
than quarter of mile apart. 1t is
a very matter-of-fact solution of the
mystery, but Lenore and I are none
the less grateful for good Offices of the
rock.
