LANGUAGE LEARNING.

'SchliemannS prescription IS a quick method of acquiring at least d reading knowledge of other tongues.
 and it is less fully appreciated than it should be in the very places where it
 could be of greatest use, says We'll
 spring. There are, all over the coun-
 try. homes where one or two of the family have had at some time or other a pleasant and broadening and re- freshing acquaintance with German or French. or perhaps even Italian or Spanish. The difficulty has been tc keep up" that acquaintance. and chance tO bring a fresh. lively. outside interest into the home life Is lost.
 Dr. Scnliemanns method was sim ply this He was too busy unearthing the nine buried cities of old Troy town to have much time left for hard work with grammars and dictionaries. So he did without them largely. He learn ed by heading. and by reading rapidly as one reads in English. depending upon habit and familiarity with the words to make their meanings clear to him. He is today almost as famous for the many foreign languages he was able to read as he is for his archaeo- logical discoveries
 The 'five-minute doses of this prescription" amount to this. Take five minutes a day for reading. say, German. Just read it. Don't think you are unscholarly because you haven't time to look up" some new word. Words have a way of teaching words. Reading little each day will keep in training your word memory, and will fasten new words in your mind. Get your eyes. and your ears. too. accustomed to the once unfamiliar wards and phrases. Let the wits sharpen themselves on guessing at a meaning here and there. Don't be dis couraged: the vital point is to have faith in this prescription. It has been tried. and it works.
 All at once. where you could only read a few sentences in your five mln- utes. you VII find yourself reading pa go. two pages. three. The sense of whole phrases will seem to jump out at you without need Of clumsy diction- aries
 For many tired. overburdened. or shut-in people just such an outside in- spiration as this is of extraordinary value. It is not necessary to stop with the language begun at school--far from it. Roth Italian and Spanish are easily learned by ones self, % far as reading goes. and they are the pret- tiest pastimes for one who has even slight knowledge of Latin and French
 Even the best translations lose some of the charm oi the original and read ing at first hand has sufficient re- ward for the trouble or costs. As a hobby" that indefinite thing which so many nowadays claim to be neces- sary to happiness. it ranks very high.

SONG OF THE KINGS JESTER.
A Phantasy of Old France.

 I am the fool of Pampelune: You've seen me oftentimes, With Flute in hand, astride the moon, ? Troll out my Hitting rhymes. My souls enamored of a star With flaming locks of gold: The glory she unveils afar My eyes alone behold. So, perched upon your silvern horn, old moon, to see the more, I pipe and shrill in careless scorn of all the winds that roar. And O the thrills. the thrills. the thrills My wild flute filings on high, And O the thrills. the thrills the thrills By which all testers die. Stuart Merrill in Translantic Tales.
