NOVEL READING.
An Excessive Amount of 1t IL Declared to
MnItate Against Marriage.

A writer in a monthly review, dis
cussing Mr. Balfour's Foundations Of
Belief, +" takes occasion to say that solid
books, dealing with the great problems
of mind and morals, are no longer read
except by a few specialists. That an ex-
elusive diet of novel reading is extreme
ly debilitating is proved by one series Of
facts which are observable in every part
of the civilized world Men and women
among the reading classes no longer
marry in anything like such numbers as
they formerly did, and the reason Is
that they have no pluck in them to face
lives of Spartan simplicity on limited
incomes.
The result is disastrous to women, in
asmuch as it prevents many Of them
ever marrying at all For if a woman
does not marry when she is young very
few men care to marry her when she Is
middle aged. Men marry in middle life
but they do not marry women Of their
own age. They marry young women.
The physiological moral is that IL would
be vastly better for both men and wom-
en- to read novels for recreation only,
and when at work to read solid hooks
which really exercise and develop the
brain. In practice the result Of this
would be that both men and women
would have better and stronger brains
They would marry earlier and with more
courage. They would face the world
more hopefully and successfully, and
they would become the parents Of whole
somer, healthier, happier and more ca-
pable children. English Paper.
