THE GREAT POETS.

Do Not Study Them For Knowledge.
Read Them For Culture.
Young men and young women actual
~ go to college to take a course in
Shakespeare or Chaucer or Dante or
the Arthurian legends. The course be-
comes a mere knowledge course. Ny
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 a bone in winter. No meaning
Of phrase escapes them; every hDe
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. win you real
iy 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 CT life and
our mastery over it's elements. AZ the
mere facts about poets work are al
chaff as compared with the apprecia-
tion Of one fine line or fine sentence.
Why study q great poet at all after the
manner Of the dissecting room? Why
not rather seek to make the acquaint-
ance Of bis living soul and to feel its
powerS ~fohn BurTVuAhs In Century.

ENGLasHMAN AND TURK.

dow the Former Obtained Some Cash
Owed by the Latter.
An Englishman has just had a very
curious experience, says the London
Telegraph. He had lent a Turk some
money, hut the man was unable tC
pay and on his deathhed laid a par
ticular charge on his wife and chil
dren to meet the debt. The eldest son
was making arrangements according
ly, but also died and he, too, begged
bis family to pay the money as soon
as they could.
One day the E:;;:...:shman received q
visit from a mel.!.cr of the family,
who said that there were now four
members of it left, and they were
geady to pay. but one of the daughters
refused to subscribe her share, declar.
ing that the money was never really
lent. The others, however, wished to
settle the matter, and if the English
man would come to the house it would
be arranged. But the Turk added,
III you see there is any difficulty Just
say that you leave it to be settled in
the next woEld.~
Accordingly the Englishman went to
the house at the appointed time and
met the family in the presence Of a
mollah, the ladies being behind a
screen. The mollah began by asking
II he had truly lent the money, how
much it was and If he would take any
less. One of the women behind kept
saying it was all fraud. The English
man then declared that he had lent the
money, that he had not asked for it,
that they had told him to come and
get It and If they did not want to pay
1t he would leave the matter to be set
tied in the next world
There was dead silence for a few mo-
ments, and then the women called
their brother. and each paid her share
without word. 1t seems the prospect
Of meeting the father in the other
world without having carried out his
wishes was to1 serious thing to face
B1enaings Born Of sorrows.
The worlds greatest blessings have
come out of it's greater SORROWS. Said
Goethe, Il never had an affiiction
which did not turn into u poem" No
doubt the best music and poetry in all
literature had a like origin. If we could
only know its whole stcsy. 1t is uni

livered at that time and place.
AS Mr.. G. E. Schupbach has

itably inclined people be DESTROYS
