FEAR OF CORTAGION.
Why Many Pupils Are Kept Out of
Schools.

So many pupils are absent from the
schools on account of the fear of con-
tagion that superintendent Christen-
sen yesterday sent instructions to the
school principals to have the teachers
give out the information that DR..
Whitney has been re-employed as
health officer for the schools and all
cases Of suspected sickness are imme-
diately reported to him for prompt in
vestigation and report. It is expected
that Dr. Whitney will soon have all
the cases of sickness located, so that
effective quarantine measures can be
enforced, thus allaying the fear many
parents have of the school rooms being
infected.

ne ::rleod Of Fiction.

The growth q popular interest In
fiction. as indicated by the enormous
sales of this class of literature. is one Of
the marvels Of our times. In an article
On Fiction Reud and Written In 1901"
Talcott williams says In The Review
Of Reviews that ''the year has had at
least six novels which run to circula-
ton Of 10000, one-half as many more
which reach 100000, score with what
would once have been the phenomenal
circulation OF $4,000 and from forty to
Fifty with edktious of 10000 to 10000.
Nowadays a book scarcely moves
which does less. Work cut this sum,
add the editions of the 500 or more
novels with normal editions, and there
IS novel production of not less than
some 3,Oo0.O0O volumes. No food like
this exists the world over. The literary
statistics of our urban quadrilateral-
New York. Chicago. Philadelphia and
Boston-will give you a public library
circulation Of 6,o0o.o0 volumes a year,
Of which some 100000 are novels.
Our lesser libraries will nearly double
this. In all. this appetite for novel
reading calls for the issue OF 100000
volumes. and the circulation of fiction.
new and old, through libraries, is some
100000 TO s.o00.op0 volumes"
With the vast numbered new writer's
who are pouring flood of fiction upon
the market there seems little If any
falling Off in the demand for the works
OF the OIL standard authors. as Mr..
Williams observes that IN a single
great store. one OF the five or six lar
gest in the country. but. after all. only
one of dozen in our four cities which

of Dickens In the current year at less
than 100000 to 100000 volumes.
have no manner OF doubt that this
twelvemonth sees 100000 volumes Of
Scott bought by readers"
1t Is. however. the American novel
which attracts particular attention and
has. as Mr.. Williams says. almost the
choice Of the daily newspaper and the
lasting book with the alternative Of
200. 900 readers for day,or 1000 read
ers year for 200 years" After a crit

About the NEST pathetic proceeding
now before the New York courts Is
the plea OF counsel in behalf of a swell
client who objects to having the sum
of $500 deducted from bis annual in
come of $1,000 to satisfy Q judgment
against him In court-for debt. The plea
OF counsel is that the young mans po-
sition in society Is such that all hts
$4,000 income Is necessary to main
tain It. 1t may be different in New
York. but In most well regulated com.
mnnities the payment Of ones honest
debts has something to do with his
position In society.
