Books with Uncut Leaves

A book. the leaves of which are uncut,
possesses no value of an intrinsic char,
acter beyond one thai is cut, but really
less. For that matter, il it is to remain
uncut, it is as ~valueless as il is useless.
There is q class of book collectors, how
ever. who place a premium upon books
with uncut leaves, and SO commend
them in their advertisements and cir
culars. There are persons who load
certain shelves in their libraries with
uncut books. OF course they are not for
use and are not used, and are valueless
except for keepng.-Brooklyn Eagle.

Crossing Broadway During g Parade.
An amusing echo of the night pageant,
which is probably only of thousands
that happened, is that told by a young
business man who resides in the neigh
borhood of Washington square, west Of
Fifth avenue, New York. He occupied
a window in a building on the east side
of Broadway, below Canal street, waited
until nearly II o'clock before the head
of the procession reached him, and soon
after gave up his place of observation in
disgust and undertook to reach his resi-
dence, as he was thoroughly tired out
with the days excitement. He saw 1t
was impossible to cross Broadway at the
point where he had been watching the
parade, SO he made a detour and at
tempted to cross over at Canal street,
but did not succeed in breaking through
the police lines there.
Then he went back again to one of the
streets running parallel with Broadway,
walked up and tried without success to
force a passage at Washington square.
Failing again he successfully made eff
forts at Union square, Madison square
and at Fifty-ninth street, but to no pur-
pose, and finally he walked into Central
park. where he succeeded in 50 thor
oughly losing himself that it was fully
an hour before he found his way out in
the neighborhood of West Seventy-sec-
ond street. He reached home at about
3 o'clock in the morning, but he didn't
go down to the office that morning, for
good and sufficient reasons.
All of this journeying might have
been avoided IL he had adopted the
method employed by so many other peo-
pie who found it impossible to cross the
line Of parade, and took the nearest ele-
waited station to South ferry, where they
changed to an up town train on the OPP
posite side of the city. New York from
the Battery to Contra! park wa as effec-
lively divided into two communities as
if separated by an ocean, and if a per-
son desired to cross Fifth avenue at
Madison square he WAS obliged to travel
at least six miles around the lower end
of the city and up the other side Of
town to get there. -BrOOklyn Eagle.
