A WRITER In the Tribune having said,
"If MI. Dana would sound the tocsin
and tell men and women Of all grades OF
life what pleasure and profit they might
secure by reading S~hakespeare's plays
he would be a benefaotor to his race"
the great editor says in Addisonian
measure: "Things that are better than
pleasure, more valuable than profit,
they might thus secure. The soul would
be illuminated, the intellect broadened,
the spiritual nature exalted, the affec-
tions refined, the life dignified, the whole
of the cherishable pcwera Of manhood
or womanhood inspired and augmented.
The influence OF Shakespeare's genius is
ennobling. 1t p~ervadeth n and com
passeth all; it dealeth with the visible
world and with the invisible, the right
and the wrong, the craft and the stuff,
tho passions aud tho reason, the images
Of forms and their shadows, the beauti-
full and the hateful, the speoters, the
chimeras, and whatever else there be in
space, time. or fancy. We tell all men
and women that there is no other one
like unto Shakespeare. When he enter
eth tho mind and taketh possession Of
the heart, there a be no place in the
thought or in the habit for aught that
is mean"
Paste this in your hats, men and wo-
men, and read it once q day.
