Reading of the Schoo1boy.

Habits are contracted and characters
formed early in life, and it Is probable
that the color Of PERSONS reading is
mainly determined during the time Of
hobbledehoydom, when he is In process
Of passing from the limp and lanky
schoolboy to tho set and rigid man. Just
at this tams is most critical period in
his career, for now IL is that he obtains
q new outlook into life. Previously ne
has been concerned with the miniature
world of school and looked at the great
er world only with the eyes Of school
boy. But now, entering q business or
profession. he enters into larger life and
begins to look about him with On air of
deeper inquiry. And the more he reads
Of contemporary literature the worse
does he become, for the air is thick with
controversy. Nothing is too sacred to
be contradicted. and the spirit Of sweet
reasonablenessr seems to be dead
