READING MATTER THAT
 CONFRONTS US TODAY

From the New York Commercial.
 " HERE is value in reading that not
 everyone recognizes Most of us
 read, some thoughtfuly, some vir- cariously some discriminatory, some in discriminatory. Some store the mind with useful knowledge, others who think they are great readers devote large portion of their lives to current novels, with out obtaining any gain and only question able entertainment. A young man on I entering life finds himself in the midst of great mass of reading matter. Pub lie schools. Sunday schools, colleges, the clubs and the cities all have their public libraries. No matter where the young man goes, newspapers, books, magazines are put in his hands. We might as well talk about importance of schools and churches, says a western preacher. It is conceded that we must read or be ignoramuses. We must read daily, wide ly. carefully and with discrimination.
 A man may be a great man and not great reader, and he may be a great reader and not be much of a man. Charles Darwin was great student and
 
 power was not In his reading, but in his observation. No amount of reading can take the place of observation nor of thinking. Persons who read and read and do not think are like people who eat and eat and do not work. The man who reaus without thinking, injuries his mind. Reading matter Is a great gift to man kind. It is the choice inheritance of the age. Observation, reading, thinking; these three should go hand to hand, and when they do, then the man who reads widely has weapon placed within his hands before which the man who does not read may we'll tremble.
 What shall we read. First, the daily newspapers. The daily press Is the his- tory of the world up-todate. A history that can be found there and nowhere else The mission of the daily paper is to furnish it's readers with the events that have taken place in the world dur ing the past twenty-four hours The tele- graph grides and globe and the great daily taps the wires of the world. The newspaper is not responsible for the facts, but for the faithful reporting of the same. They doubtless print much that had bet ter not see the light. But we ought to take the newspaper as we do crabs, eat that which is good with gratitude and push the shell aside In sAence. One should also read the best magazines. The most carefully digested written articles of the history of the world of today can be found first. and often only in them.
 In the choice of books we need to be very careful It Is crime against ones self to read inferior books when there are superior ones on the same subject The unnatural book or books that deal with the sins and weakness of humanity should be avoided. As rule one can find meat enough for trouble and tragedy in life without hunting for 1t in books. There are standard works of fiction that are classics. These should be read. for time has passed upon them approvingly But If one would brace the mind and stimulate 1t to vigorous thinking, he will read fiction sparingly. Give to biography, history. travel large place. Also essays.

He was shot down while standing by my side, just as we were preparl,s to make a charge on the enemy. This was a trying hour In my experience. The enemy was en- trenched behind two lines of breast works. We succeeded in driving them from their first line and taking possession of it. but at the loss of many of the best and bravest men of our regiment, which was the Fortieth Alabama, commanded by Colonel Gully. While accuping this line of breastworks General Baker, sour brigade commander, gave the order to fall back, but many of us were so in- tensely engaged with the enemy just in front that we did not hear the command. Finally realizing that the most of our command had retired, we fell back about two or three hundred yards and here we met Colonel Gully and about sixty of our

regiment together with the color bearer We soon saw that we were entirely cut off from our command by line of the enemy, which passed in between us and our forces at distance of about 50 yards. They, however, did not see us, as the woods were very thick where we were, and we were thus enabled to slip off in another direction. We had not gone far however, before we met twelve Yankees loaded down with ammunition for their command and we made them our pris- oners.
 It was now getting dark, but we could see and hear the enemy around their fires and so we lay quiet for few hours We still had some vague idea of the di- rection of our forces, but In order to reach them we would have to pass through this line of the enemy. There was a dark place however, about nifty or one hundred yards wide. in their line, which we supposed to be gap between two brigades or two divisions. This was our only hope of escape and so we decided we would take the chances and make our way through at this place. We were at E. loss to know what to do with out pris- oners. as we were afraid to turn them loose and if we took them with us they would give warning of our presence.

As to how much poetry or what poets one should read depends upon ones taste and temperament.
 How to read is of as much value as what we should read. A young man de- sires knowledge of many kinds. It is im- possible for him to obtain it all at once. He will succeed better by choosing certain subjects to which he holds himself rigid ly until they are reasonably well within his mind before he takes up another sub ject, As to history and literature. tho Bible is the great book of all time. As a literary model 1t has no equal. This point Is overlooked because the Bible Is primarily a religious revelation. It is Gods message to the soul. This fact has led men to overlook its literary merits.
 The Bible Is the oldest literature in the world The Jurisprudence of the Jews is 600 years older than that of 'Lycurgus, the great Greclan lawgiver, and 2000 years older than Justinian and 3200 years older than Blackstone. The lyric poetry of

Chinese Art in Stone.

From the London Saturday Review.
 The spirit of purely Chinese art In stone is shown in work such as the great monolith figures of animals and warriors which flank the approach to the tombs of the Ming dynasty and In the perfectly plain structures designed for the tombs of the present dynasty.
 These are composed of enormous blocks of stone brought with infinite labor from distant quarrles over roads and bridges which are hardly capable of sustaining ordinary cart traffic and have always to be specially prepared to prevent the great weights causing their collapse.
 The same admiration for the employ

Israel was in it's glory 1000 years before the poet Horace wrote his immortal odes in Italy. Centuries before Socrates and Plato discussed the problems of evil under the shadow of the Acropolis in the golden days of Grecian history the old Hebrew prophets had discussed it fin profounder manner. Seneca has held high rank as classic since the silver age of the Roman empire, but the pro- verbs of Solomon, which far surpass all others of the old Latin writers. are thousand years older than Seneca.

ment of huge blocks Of stone is seen in the case of the bridges over the rivers along the coast of South Fultien, where the stone slabs used in the con- struetion occasionally measure sixty feet in length and are estimated to weigh nearly I2O tons, and the bridges them selves have length of 1000 to 2OO0 yards.
 In almost all cases where the buildings are not of solid construction the weight of the blocks employed has placed a strain upon the supports which the archi- tect's skill was not competent to provide against. and with the lapse of time the melancholy spectacle Is seen of slabs fal- len from their places and of noble and costly structures approaching ruin. In some cases the interdependence of the arches lears to the same result. One notable instance of this occurred during Colonel Gordon's campaign against the Taipings when to allow of the passage of his small steamers 1t was necessary to make gap in a bridge of over twenty arches, and arch after arch collapsed immediately after the passage of his small notilla.

Received Gold Medals.

In the matter of prizes the citi-
zens of Idaho certainly have Just
cause for congratulation, as the
committees on awards at the Port
land exposition have given us no
less than fifty-eight gold medals
and nine silver medals in connect
ion with the exhibits the state has
had on display at the big fair.
1t is not known at the present
time whether Idaho leads all the
other northwestern states in the
matter of rewards for agricultural
exhibits, but it is conceded that If
neighboring states can beat such a
record as fifty-eight gold m d Is
out of possible sixty-seven they
are all right.
Idaho also showed up well in the
mining department, receiving a to-
tai of % awards, OF which two were
Cd, six were silver, II were
bronze and nine were honorable
mention. In the mining way Idaho
ranks as follows, Colorado, 16l
awards; Oregon S5 awards; Califor-
MIA t3; Montana 81; Washington
20; Wyoming So; Idaho 20.
The consensus OF opinion OF fair
visitors was that the agricultural
exhibit at the Idaho building was
the very best on the grounds
There is a strong possibility that
Oregon and prehaps Washington,
will lead Idaho in the number OF
horticultural awards, but if these
states beat 5S gold medals and nine
silver ones, the Webfooters and
the Evergreeners will have to show
the goods.-Idaho Falls Times.

October / the new brand law
passed by the last Legislature, went
into effect, requiring all stock
brands to be flied with the state
auditor The delay in putting this
section of the law into effect was to
enable the county recorders to sup
ply certified copies of all brands
and to notify stock owners of the
proposed change. This has been
complied with and more than a
thousand different brands have
been received by the state auditor
This number is being increased by
each days ma l. All filings with
the county recorders after October
l are considered void, so that the
state auditors Office is now the only
place where the proper hlings can'
be made. The state auditor, how
ever, has a condition to meet which
will require the action of the state
board to settle. The law requires
that the auditor shall deliver to
each county every quarter a loose
sheet containing a record OF all
brands filed for the entire state.
These loose leaves are to be bound
into a permanent record in each
county, and are supposed to meet
the demand for information asked
for at each county seat.-Capitol

Past This In Your Hat

Every man in every town during
the course of a lifetime has to ask
a favor of an editor-not an ex-
ception to this rule, says an ex-
hange. A man may escape doc
tor, keep clear of the courts, but
once in a life time at least, he has
to 20 to the newspaper to have
certain piece put in-a death no
tice, births, etc, have his name
printed in or omitted from some
item. 1t is therefore your interest
TO treat the editor fairly. He de-
sires to be fair; he would rather DO
the right thing than the wrong
thing; but if you give him a kick,
the dent of it may be found in the
top of your own hat some day, and
you will never know how it got
there. Don't you think you are
immune; don't think that provi-
ience has especially favored you;
rour time will come and when it
loes come, it will be fine invest
nent if you have friend in the
,diior's office.

GUST THE DEMON.
A Tussle with Coffee.

There Is something fairly demoniacal
In the way coffee sometimes wreaks it's
fiendish malice on those who use it,
lady writing from Calf. says:-
my husband and l, both lovers of
coffee, suffered for some time from a
very annoying form of nervousness, ac-
companied by most frightful head
aches. In my own case there was
eventually developed some SORT of af-
lection of the nerves leading from tho
spine TO the head.
81 was unable 10 hold my head up
straight, the tension of the nerves drew
1t to one side. causing me the most in
tense pain. We got no relief from
medicine. and wero puzzled as to what
caused the trouble, till friend sug-
gested that possibly the coffee we
drank had something to do with 1t,
and advised that we quit II and try
Postum Coffee.
I'VE followed his advice. and from
the day that we began to use Postum
we both began to improve, and In
a very short time both of us were en-
tirely relieved. The nerves became
steady once more, the headache ceased,
the muscles in the back Of my neck re-
Taxed. my head Strengthened up, and
the dreadful pain that had so punished
me while FUSED the old kind of coffee
vanished.
1--WE have never resumed the use Of
the old coffee. but relish our Postum
every day as well ns we did the former
beverage. And we are delighted to find
that we can give It freely to our chill
dren. also. something we never dared
to do with the old kind Of coffee"
Name given by Postum Co.. Battle
Creek, Mich.
Postum Coffee contains absolutely no
drugs of any kind, but relieves the
coffee drinker from the Old drug pol
son.
There's q reason.
