Charm of Uncut Books.

1t is clear, then, that those are but
rude spirits who have no reverence for
all that pertains to book What could
be coarser and more barbarous than the
demand that the quivering edges of a
volume, with all the struggling fibers
that f1utter on the verge of life,' should
be cut and hacked to dead evenness and
stilted smoothness? Such butchers would
trim the oak leaf, torture the lily and
prune the luxuriance of the horse chest
nut
The plea of utility is the most barren
Of all. Is there any good thing in ma
ture that does not demand labor in the
search? Are we to grumble at the sting
of the bee or blind ourselves to its
glossy beauty in our haste to steal its
honey? 1t is but half of reading to mere
ly read. There is, SO to speak, court
ship as we'll as a marriage with our
authors text, time for dalliance, for
indulgence, for emotion, for coy ap-
proach and wistful glance. And this to
the true reader is more than all the bare
commercial zest in grasping its heart
and putting its soul to usury, as if au
thors but worked for US as slaves in the
mines to make us rich.
No moments are SO delicious as those
in which the reader first approaches his
author, when the volume lies but half
revealed. The text is coy and saucy as
a nymph, now peering boldly at us from
the open leaf, now lurking half conceal
ed between the pages, now buried be-
yond our sight. There needs a swift
pursuit. With knife in hand we gently
lay her place of hiding bare, track her
to dusky grotto, follow her through dis
NAL caves, and in the end she stands
caught, revealed, her ambush clean cut
off, and we steal to her embrace vic
torious. That, after all, is very real
pleasure. 1t is sweet to discover, mo-
ment by moment, the authors purpose,
not hasty to seize it, but dipping here
and there as one cuts the pages, lighting
