Which language is or is to be most
worth learning, and so to have the
strongest claim to be the second lam
guage learned by the educated classes
of all nations? The decisive factor
in this matter is the amount of sci
ence and thought the acquisition of
a language win afford the man who
learns it. The actual number of
books published in English is less
than that in French or German, and
the proportion of serious books is
very greatly less.

where Is KasIxaskia.

The ancient town of Kaskaskia IS the
butt of the contention between the states
Of Illinois and Missouri. the former as
sorting that It is In its territory, the tat
fer asserting that @ higher power than
that of man has taken 1t away. kas-
kasixia was the first capital OF Illinois,
and until the greet rise in the Missis-
sirpi a few years ago there was no ques-
tion about its being In that state. AT
that time the great river. disconnected
with its old bed started in to make q
new one. and when it finished Its work
Kaskas1eia found the river had severed
it from its native state. The question
that has arisen Is whether the MlSSis-
sippi is the boundary line between Mis-
