A "Reminiscences.

As Hon. Seth L. Milliken sat conversng
with some friends at the Elmwood hotel a
few days ago, he happened to glance at
the old Hanscom block as it is called, at
the junction of Main and Elm streets.
THE sight of that building recalls to
me- said the Congressman, ''the first
time that | ever attended q court trial.
Up stairs in that block. when | was a
student at Colby there was heard one day
case in which Winslow man brought
lot of us students went in to listen to the
proceedings. The case of the plaintiff
was in the hands of the late Henry W..
Paine. who was a Wiuslow man, and after
wards became a famous lawyer in Boston.
Lot M. Morrill, was solicitor for the rail
road and defended the suit. am not sure,
but | think the hearing was before an old
man who was known as Squire Stackpole.
| remember that the case was very ably
tried as it naturally would be with such
men for counsel. There was some very
sharp legal sparring between Paine and
Morrill,, which made the hearing exceed
ingly interesting. | recall that some of
the boys who went in to hear the case had
some discussion of the relative ability of
the two lawyers, and while all agreed that
they were both possessed of great talents,
the impression prevailed that Paine was
the bigger man of the two, as he undoubt-
edly was, although Lot Morrill, was very
able gentleman" Watervile Mail

an effort to cultivate in the minds of such
a love for good reading? Cannot some
lady in every neighborhood see that every
child in her own immediate vicinity reads,
or hears read, such books as Mrs Bur
nett's "Little Lord Fauntleroy," Miss
Alcott's and Pansy's stories; and let every
boy before he is old enough to hold the
reins, become acquainted with Miss Sew
! alrs ''Black Beauty?' AS the child's
mind becomes stronger let us choose such
| books as contain not only simple mar
rative, but filled with pure elevating
| thought, and while the child thinks he is
merely reading for amusement, he is
drinking deep from the fountain of knowl-
draught strength and inspiration to climb
higher.
All young people do not have access to
a public library, nor do all have the means
to purchase books. Now, no one who is
not utterly selfish and blind to the wants
and interests of others would refuse SO
simple loan. The winter evenings are
close at hand, and why cannot every
neighborhood that does not have the bene-
fit of the Guild or Chautauqua readings
form reading club; for in few places are
the inhabitants too scattered At least
two or three families might sustain a
weekly meeting, and let it be one that
will draw in the young people. Now let
us not be selfish, but select such books as
will most interest them. They usually
like stories, SO let us select from such
authors as Holland, Mcdonald, Mrs
Stowe, George Eliot; then let the read
ings be nterspersed with music and
games. Now, in order to get them inter-
ested we must study their different tastes.
Let us try Beecher's Norwood, and if
we find the listener less interested in the
story than in the beautiful thoughts so
thickly interviewer in its pages, we know
he possesses poetical Imagination that will
be richly fed from such books as John
Ruskin's 5. OF course we will have a poem
occasionally. Then there are lovers Of
| it-iltii 'teistSteN W lllt iuuGIl SlNlc Ol
everyday life, SO let us select a chapter
from Mark Twain or Marietta Holly. ia
miliarly known us Samantha Allen, = for
while the student is laughing over the
comic scenes she presents in such rustic
style, he will gather beneath the rough
enclosure bright gems OF truth mingled
| with pure poetic tlOuoht
Then for the benefit Of those bows
struggling for an education amid difficult
ties, let us read a chapter from ''Pushine
to the Front
Is it not our duty to use all the influence
in our power to get the young interested
in good books? If parents will begin in
the nursery, place in their homes only
good. wholesome newspapers, select the
| right books for the children and youths,
in mature years they will choose wisely
for themselves. Then in the future it
will not be said ''The literature of Amer
lea is deteriorating;' but rather, ''the
tendency of American literature is on
ward, upward, the modern news stand is
sufficient testimony, for its influence on
the mind is pure, uplifting, ennobling;
and the world is growing BETTER

civilization of the West put in most dra-

of action; and while it is in no sense a
problem novel, it presents the deeper mat

impression. There is also the same vivid

nobly she succeeded. A teacher in her
youth and possessing a mind of no com
