The Appreciation of Men of Genius.

The Appreciation OF Men or Genius.
Until a comparatively recent period
say the last century-few men of great
genius were justly appreciated by their
contemporaries. The house of fame
received them not during their lives
and the winds of human adulation
blew only over their graves. In their
own day they were sought for such
personal qualities as were agreeable,
apart from their works, and there was,
happily for their peace of mind, little
public concern as to their domestic in
teriors or as to their manners, grave or
gay This immunity was no slight com
pensation for the worlds apathy or its
stinted praise.
We have changed all that. The emf
nent authors of our time will have no
future glory greater than we have CIV
en- them. The response of the contem-
porary audience is quick and full, and a
beautiful sentiment of affection is de-
veloped toward the author, who CRATE
fully rejoices in both the laurels and
the love. This mutual feeling shows it
self more, ut least more extensively, in
America than anywhere else.-Henry
NJ. Alden in Harper's Magazine.

Uses For Hymn Books.

81 made few calls the other day."
said the pastor of an uptown church
TO his congregation, 'and in one Of the
houses l saw strange thing. What
DO you think? One of the church hymn
books, the property of this church, had
been carried home and was placed I'M
der the leg of the table to lengthen 1T
out. I demonstrated at this mental use
Of hymn books. Apologies and bushes
were profuse. Now, am not scolding
about this, but hymn books cost, this
church money. and If any Of you have
tables too short in the legs please put
\ newspaper under them or piece Of
wood. If you do this, we won't have
10 send out and buy another hundred
hymn books, as we did last week"
The pastor had no sooner ended
these remarks than a girl sitting al

hymn book, placed it between her back
and the back. Of the pew and settled

found it effected cure. 1t likewise
proved successful with ten neighbors
