Readlno for Improvement.

Any girl with an ordinary public
school education can do something to
improve her mind a little every day
She can read a page of some good
book-a book Of travel. or book Of
history or a book Of poems, OF a book
OF essays-and she can think Of what
she has read, and by copying in a
blank book few sentences or lines
which impress her, she can improve
her knowledge OF spelling and phras.

year OF such practice a better educa.
ton than many high school graduates
possess Any librarian will advise an
ambitious girl what books to read for
self-culture. To read a novel hurried.
ly, just for the sake Of knowing how
1t comes out, is only waste OF time
and brain power Good novels are
worth reading, but they should leave
something in the mind besides the
story, or they are hatiar left unread.
