THE REAL VALUE.
How All Literature Is Contained In
Few Great Books.

How All Literature Is Contained In a
Few Great Books.
Young people must every now and
then hear it said or see it written that
all the real value in literature can be
put upon a small shelf-that is to say,
the really important part of all that is
written is contained in a very few
good books, all the rest being either
unimportant or different ways of say
ing the same things that have been
said before. The statement, of course,
is not true if it be taken literally.
There are certainly many hundreds,
perhaps thousands, Of books that con-
tain original thoughts or experiences
that are truly valuable; but, generally
speaking, the best part of all that has
been written is to be found in a few
volumes. To understand how this is
possible we must remember that near
ly all rules are the same as other and
simpler rules. In arithmetic, for eX-
ample, the whole science consists of
only four simple ways Of treating mum
bers. We can add, subtract, multiply
and divide, and that is all we can do
to numbers. The rest of the book is
only the working out of these four
rules; thus all of the arithmetic could
easily be put into a little page that
one could carry in the vest pocket.
All behavior, all right living, is also
set forth in a few simple laws. These
illustrations will show what is meant
by saying that all literature Is contain
ed in few great books The Bible
and the works of few famous poets
and essayists contain all human wis,
dom, and these are within the reach of
every purse.-St Nicholas.

INTEREST OF PURE ELECTIONS

This Will be busy week with
the Georgia legislators, as many
important measures will be consid-
cred. One of general interest that
is yet to come up is the bill by Mr..
Wright of Richmond, in the in
terest of pure elections that was
passed by such an overwhelming
majority in the House. Four
years ago bill with similar pro-
visions was introduced by Mr..
Stovall, but the judiciary commit
tee declined to report favorably
upon the measure. Being in a
large measure similar to his own
bill which could not then be got
ten through, the bill by Mr..
Wright was ADVOCATED by Mr.. Sto-
vail. Having already passed the
House, the bill will probably pass
the Senate and become a law. 1t
is very sweeping measure, but up
on only one point was there any
debate when the bill was under
consideration in the House. This
was in regard to requiring one to
testify to matters which might
tend to incriminate himself. The
bill provides that one may be re-
quired to testify to facts, even
though one be jointly guilty. I'm
der the terms of the bill one may
not decline to testify because the
facts to be brought forth would
show that the witnessIhad also beer
guilty of some violation. Such
evidences, however, could not be
used against the party giving it
The bill regardless of the oppCsi
ton that developed to this partic
ular feature of it, passed without
changes. Some contended thai
such a provision was in violation
of the constitution of the United
States. The bill is practically thu
same as the law in operation il
Virginia now, which prohibits tn,
employment of qualified voters a
workers at the polls. 1t also pro
vides for the punishment of an,
who contribute money for the pur
chase of votes, as well as for thos
buying and selling them. Tn
provisions are made to apply t.
all party primaries, just the SAM
as to regular elections.

CHANCE in THE EMPIRE STATE

If the New York newspapers are
to be believed, Boss Platt and Boss
Odell, for years at skies and sew
ems, have kissed and made up, the
motive being the unhorsing of
Gov. Higgins and the control OF
the State machinery. Roosevelt
is said to be standing by Higgins,
however, all of which insures a
fierce struggle in the Empire State.
Platt is a dotard, and Odell is a
political chariatan, but Higgins is
not the character of man to meas
ure lances with combination such
as these men make. The chances
are the fight will become so bitter
that the Democrats will have g
fine chance to carry the State, i
they do not nominate Hearst OF
some other lightweight. Hears
has a great following in New York
City, but out in the State he would
be weak. Jerome or Mcclellan
would get more votes. Each is
aggressive and each would com
mand votes where Hearst could
never get them.
