The insensate craving of book col
lectors is illustrated in the case of Raw
linson, an English bibliomaniac who
would buy book though lie had twen-
ty copies of 1t. He lived and died
among bundles as.d piles of books COW
cred with dust and cobwebs. The Spec
tator mentions two collectors whose
covetousness increased with their col
lection.
Mr.. Heber, the brother Of the bishop,
bought all that came in his way, by
carloads and shiploads and in whole
libraries, on which in some cases he
never cast his eyes.
OF similar disposition was the IA
nous Antonio Magliabecchi, who Is
said to have lived on titles ard indexes
and whose very Ii!low was folio.
The old bibliomuniuc lived III i kind of
cave made of piles and masses of
books, with hardly any room for his
cooking or for the wooden cradle lined
with pamphlets which he slung be-
tween his shelves for bed. He died
in 1714, in his eighty-second year, dir.
ty, ragged and as happy ms king

A Melancholy cnreer.

A young man who will some day in
herit an enormous fortune and who Is
being brought up as n gentleman" was
interviewed the other day. Among 9TH
er things he said, IF did not have my
career cut out for me, If We're to lose
my fortune, should turn to the law
and study some phases Of it that inter-
est me greatly"
Probably If the young man were
actually thrown on his own resources
he would resort TO something less en-
tirely elegant and Io.c useful. But.
that aside, what is this career" that
he fancies he las ..cut OUT for him?
To take care of his property-that Is, to
spend his life ut an occupation similar
to that of II Waterman or a policeman,
but far more mechanical and less eS-
citing. What miserable, what IL
melancholy conception of Il career! u
spend ones life Int just making money
is poor enough use of the one chance
to live; to spend it at watching heap
of money-what dullness. What dreari-
ness! And in world tceming with OPP
.portunltics to live intensely. WILDLY. In

Lincoln's mind was orderly, though
his methods were not. He neglected
details because his thought, Which was
"as direct as fight" passed instantly
to the vital spot, and all else seemed
unimportant. IF l can free this case
from technicalities and get 1t properly
swung to the jury I'll win it," he used
to say; and this was his mental atti-
tude toward all legal questions. He
had no training in technicalities as long
us the firm of Stuart 4 Lincoln lasted,
and it is doubtful If any teaching would
have qualified him for attorney work
or made him master of detail Yet
as an office lawyer, such as rules the
destinies of our modern corporate in
terests, he probably would have been
invaluable. His mind comprehended
large subjects without the slightest eff
fort. Once concentrated on an issue
he passed directly to the point, disre-
garded the thousand and one contin-
gencies, all the academic pros and
cons and reduced the problem to its
simplest possible form. = Frederick

IN tie clurchyard of the little Mid
ilesex village of Primer. England, there
stands Il monument quite distinct from
all those which surround it. 1t consists
of tall. square pyramid overgrown
with ivy, through the middle of which
projects II coffin made of stone. This
monument was raised Ey a son to his
parents, William and Agnes I-oudon,
as the Inscriptions tell. They do not
however, tell why he chose to have his
parents remains poised in mid air in
the stone shell instead of being buried
in the usual manner. This curious act
is accounted for in Il strange way.
1t appears that his parents came into
some money which was to be theirs $50
long as their bodies were above the
ground" When they died, therefore, in
order that the money should not pass
into other hands their son buried"
them in this curious manner, and, de-
spite the apparent injustice, his object
was attained.

The origin of sur.r-

Sugar has been known since the dawn
of history, but not in all countries. The
Chinese appear to have delighted their
palates with sugar for more than 5000
years. and it was known in India ear
lier than in Europe, being made from
n juicy reed or cane. One of AleXan-
der the Greats generals carried sugar
to Greece in the year 1876 B. c., as Sir
Walter Raleigh some 1000 years later
carried tobacco from Virginia to Eng
land. But even SO late as 100 A. D.
sugar was still a rarity in Greece. The
famous physician Galen used it us a
remedy for certain maludies. Recent
experiments show that sugar has re-
markable sustaining power when eaten
by those undergoing great fatigue. The
invention of the first process for refin-
Ing sugar is ascribed to the Arabs, and
Venetian merchant is said to have
purchased the secret from them and
introduced the process in Sicily. The
refining Of sugar was first practiced in
England about 1863.
