sands Of Books Of Every Kind
Our national library is huge triple
room in the west front OF the Capltol
building. and holds more than 6OO'OOO
volumes in its capacious shelves
Imagine an immense chamber, along
each side of which run large alcoves OF
ironwork. Within these alcoves, which
are large enough to contain two peo-
nile. are four walls of books. Above
these small chambers are iron galleries.
one rising above the other until the
roof is reached. And each one is load
ed down with thousands upon thou
sands of volumes.
Every available space is occupied by
dusty tones yet in this seeming confu-
sion there is admirable order. The
location of every book is kept, and a
visitor calling for a certain author Is
kept waiting only few moments.
Children under sixteen are not al
lowed in the library, yet part OF it is
devoted solely to children's literature
and fairy tales.
Many are the quaint and curious
books preserved on these shelves. One
can see the Bibles of all nations-the
Zend-Avesta and the KhOran side by
side with the text book of the Mormons
and the Scriptures of the Christians.
Then there are volumes In the quaint
old English type, books published three
or four hundred years ago; Pilgrims
Progress in Chinese, huge dictionaries,
an old Bible printed in the Sixteenth
century, and the first newspaper that
ever appeared.
The largest book in existence is II
this library, huge volume nearly tive
yards long and containing life size col

This book is called ''The Audubon Bool
on Birds, :" and is worth fabulous sum
Audubon, remember, is the man fo
whom is named the society for the pre-
vention of cruely to birds. Its aim i
to do away with the useless slaughter
of birds for millinery purposes.
Many are the cranks that visit this
great library. Some come day afteI

never weary of their useless efforts

When the late Archbishop TAFT was

The day that he arrived in the vii.

Office, and asked, "Are there any let

the trouble between the employee
and the masters has been and still
f. that the workmen blindly follow
the lead of = uuHibCr OF irrespou-
sible agitatOrs. Whenever the men
have grievances that might be rem
edied without trouble, that are just,
and would at once appeal to the
sense of justice Of the employers,
they are induced by these self-ap
pointed advisers to make such ex-
travagant claims as prelude the pos
slbilty Of compliance, with tie in
variable result that the men are
hnpelessly beaten at the outset OF
the strike which follows. Even
now the iron workers and miner
are making demands which are Ger
tain to be rejected, because Of their
Injustice, and for inevitable defeat
IN the strike which cannot long be
deferred, they will, as on previous
occasions, have nobody to blame but
themselves.
