Advantagex for Culture.

Unfortunately the average woman does
not begin to appreciate the advantages
for mental. moral n physical growth
about New York. The big libraries In
Aston place. East Fifteenth street. the
Bowery and upper Fifth avenue are
perfect treasures OF knowledge and de-
light. One has only to ask for a book
to have 1t in q fortnight at the out
side; II 1t is not in the catalogue.
the librarian will order It and you can
have II in tw~enty-four hours. Not
only are the bookkeepers obligins. but
gracious and intelligent. There Is a cir
culating musical library In Union Square
and one hours reading or rummaging
among illustrated histories will double
the enjoyments of a concert or opera.
The morning and evening services are
by no means the most interesting fea-
lures OF church. In nearly every denom-
nation there are auxiliaries about tho
parish and hospital and prison associa.
tons. diet kitchens, benevolent societies.

Who VIII Obltge Mr.. Tenny?

To the Editor:
You arc wasting a good deal OF space under the
heading OF 'Letters'' which could be put to o
better use. I find that It takes months and months
before some Of your readers got tired OF discussing
the questions OF whether n man rhould get mar
ried on a ,alary OF IS or not" or whether a
gentleman ought to get up and offer his scat to
a lady In an Elevated train or surface carr" Now,
I think these two questions are easily to be
settled; the former one by answering with no.
and the second one by saying that A gentleman
will always be a gentleman even when In a
public car. Having this settled. at least to my
satisfaction, I would like to ask YOU whether II
would not he better for your many readers to
discuss more sensible ducstions-views on the
tarir. municipal government. or other subjects
which would be instructive. more useful and less
foolish than the oree at present so eagerly dis
cussed. Perhaps some one will start the ball
a rolling. II. TENNY.

Reading to the Sick.

1t is the opinion of most physicians and
nurses that when a person is too III to
read he is too Ill to listen to reading.
The sick, as a class, prefer to have an
incident, the news or a story told to
them. If reading Is done the reader
should be seated at the side or foot Of
the bed. where he can be seen by the
patient. The best reader is the one Of
SLOW, distinct speech, and with a voice
sweet and soothing enough to put the
listener to sleep.
