TIE GREAT POETS.
DO Not study Them For Knowledge;
Rcnd 'fhen Tor Cuiia.c.
OF DOUGLAS COUNTY.

DO Not study Them Far Knowledge;
Read Them Tor Cu!ia.c
Young men and young Women actual
ly 80 to college to take IA course IN
Shakespeare or Chaucer or Dante or
the ArthuriGn legends. The course be-
comes mere knowledge course. My
own acquaintance with Milton was
through an exercise in grammar. We
parsed Paradise Lost" Much of the
current college study of Shakespeare
is little better than parsing him. The
class falls upon the text like hens
upon bone in winter. No meaning
of phrase escapes them; every line
is literally picked to pieces. But of
the poet himself of that which makes
him what he is, how much do they
get? Very little, | fear. They have
had intellectual exercise and not an
emotional experience. They have add
ed to their knowledge, but have not
taken step in culture.
To dig into the roots and origins of
the great poets is like digging into the
roots of an oak or maple the better to
increase your appreciation of the beau
ty of the tree. There stands the tree
In all its summer glory. Will you real
ly know it any better after you have
laid bare every root and rootlet? There
stand Homer. Dante. Chaucer and
Shakespeare. Read them, give your
self to them, and master them if you
are man enough.
The poets are not to be analyzed; !;
they are to be enjoyed; they are not to-
be studied, but to be loved; they are
not for knowledge. but for culture
to enhance our appreciation of life and
our mastery over its elements. All the
mere facts about a poets work are as
chahf as compared with the apprecia-
ton of one fine line or fine sentence.
Why study great poet at all after the
manner of the dissecting room? Why
not rather seek to make the acquaint-
ance Of his living soul and to feel its
power?-John Burroughs in Century.

A real love of nature is one of the
most valuable possessions which you
can have. since it will continue to af-
ford you happiness as long as you live.
But in order to have this love you must
get it while you are young-while you
still have leisure to give it first place
in your thoughts. Nature must be your
first sweetheart or she will not be your
sweetheart at all.-Woman's Home
