Good Books q blessing.

eoou BOOKS u Hiessfng.
I have to tell you that the greatest
blessing that ever came to the ma
tons is that of an elevated literature,
and the greatest scourge that has
been of unclean literature. This last
has its victims in all occupations and
departments. 1t has helped to fill in
sane asylums and penitentiaries and
almshouses and dens of shame. The
bodies of this infection lie in the
hospitals and in the graves, while
their souls are being tossed over into
lost eternity, an avalanche of horror
and despair! The London plague was
nothing to it. That counted its VIC
Tins by thousands, but this modern
pest has already shoveled its millions
into the charnel house of the morally
dead. The longest rail train that ever
ran over the tracks was not long
enough or large enough to carry the
beastliness and the putrefaction which
have been gathered up in bad books
and newspapers in the last twenty
years.
Now. II Is amid such circumstances
that put a question of overmastering
Importance to you and your families.
What books and newspapers shall we
read? You see l group them together
A newspaper is only a book in
swifter and more portable shape,
and the same rules which will apply
to book reading will apply to news
paper reading. What shall we read?
Shall our minds be the receptacle Of
everything that an author has a mind
to write? Shall there be no distinc-
ton between the tree of life and the
tree of death. Shall we stoop down and
drink out of the trough which the
wickedness OF men has filled with pol
luton and shame? Shall we mire in
impurity and chase fantastic will-o'-
the-wisps across the swamps when
we might walk in the blooming gar
dens Of God? Oh, no! For the sake
of our present and everlasting welfare
we must make an intelligent and
Christian choice.
Standing. as we do. chin deep in
fictitious literature, the question that
young people are asking is, "Shall we
read novelist" reply. There are nov
els that are pure. good, Christian, ele-
waiting to the heart and ennobling to
the life. But I have still further to
say that believe that seventy-lve
out Of the 100 novels In this day are
baleful and destructive to the last de-
gree. A pure work of fiction Is history
and poetry combined. 1t is a history
Of things around us with the licenses
and the assumed names OF poetry. The
world can never pay the debt which
1t owes to such writer's OF fiction as
Hawthorne and Mckenzie and Landon
and Hunt and Arthur and others
whose names are familiar to all. The
follies Of high life were never better
exposed than by Miss Edgeworth.
The memories of the past were never
more faithfully embalmed than In
the writings of Walter Scott. Cooper's
novels are BEAUTIFULLY redolent with

What will the supreme court decideq

the result,
OF course, no one can rrognostlcate
what the decision will be, but the
Springfield, Mass, Republican. Re-

The chances are certainly favora-

tant annexations will stand tottering

lon is against the administration par
ty in its imperial schemes, 1t is indeed
probable, and more than probable,
that the purpose TO retaid the Philip
pines might be abandoned and a new
plan of dealing with the question be
adopted"
On the other hand there are many
hackers Of the Mckinley policy who
assert that the supreme court will de-
eide in its favor. All the American
people can do is to make known their
wishes and abide with as much pa
thence as possible the decision.
