READING IN SUMMER.
philadelphia Press.)


Summer is the season of reading for
thousands of Americans At the sea-
side, in the mountain or on the front
porch on a leisurely afternoon the
book is a gracious companion. Per-
haps it follows a period of recreation
in physical pursuits, or it may come at
the end of days toll for the man or
woman obliged to remain in the city.
That people should read books in pref
erence to the trivalities of the cheaper
magazines is highly desirable. Yet
there is but little gain if the reading
takes no other form than that of the
passing novel
A conventional fallacy has gained
ground that the f1imsiest fiction should
be read in summer Good novels there
are coming from the press in every
season of the year. Intelligent read
ers should keep acquainted with what
representative novelists of the day are
doing. But if it be waste of time to
read trashy story of a Winter even
ing it is no less a waste of time to fritz
ter it away on such a book in July or
August. The excuse that a vapid nov
ell is restful because it is in a measure
entertaining and requires no thought
is nonsense. The good novels, wheth-
er by the older authors or the clever
and Industrious men and women of to-
day, are generally more entertaining
than the mere butterfly fiction of the
Summer.
AS for the supposed effort of the
mind involved in reading a first-class
novel as compared with a fourth or
fifth rater the labor is wholly imagin-
airy. No person should read any book
that is not attractive and interesting
to him. In the wide range of English
and American fiction every taste and
every type of mind can be suited. Ev-
erybody in the Summer time has an
opportunity to become acquainted with
at least a single novel among the
masterpieces by Scott, Thackery, Dick
ems, Hardy, George Elliot or Bulwer
Lytton, or one of those excellent read

PLANS FOR INVASION.
Germany Has Complete Scheme for
Attack on the United States.
New York World.)

New York World)
Every great power of the world
has complied in the private records of
it's general staff a series of plans
some o. them tentative, some of them
complete in even the most apparently
nonessential details-for the invasion
of the territory of practically every
other nation of like Glass; said Gen.
w. w Wotherspoon. acting chief of
staff of the United States army and
president of the Army War College in
| this city.
THE plans of the Germans are sup
| posed to be the most complete of all.
1t is the German way of doing things.
At the same time, the projected ma
neuvers of the Massachusetts coast
can hardly be considered as part of
the American plan of defense against
the war plans of any particular ma
ton.
'The war game that starts newt
week is held on the Massachusetts
coast for several different reasons. In
the first place, this is a volunteer war
1t is costing the national government
practically nothing. The only regular
troops to be engaged in the mimic
fight will be some of the coast artil-
lery.
ut is the desire of the general
staff to vary as far as possible the
character of the annual maneuvers
from year to year. The situation sug-
gested by Boston and the coast line
of Cape Cod for this demonstration of
our readiness to withstand an attack
on that part of our seaboard is not
based on the theory that Boston would
be the natural spot for an enemy to
choose to make it's first landing. On
! the contrary, the lower reaches of the
Chesapeake present far more attrac-
tive landing point. A campaign inau-
gurated on the eastern shore of Mary
land, if the initial action brought a
victory to the invading forces, would
give them three great cities and the
national capital to choose from for
their future career of destruction and
conquest.
ut is no news to the American gov
eminent, this story that Germany has
plans for the landing of an invading
force of 10000 men, Germany for a
generation has been formulating and
modifying her plans of attack and de-
Tense in every possibility and against
every nation and every combination of
nations worthy of consideration as
| fighting factors. So, also, has prac-
tically every other power of any mill
tary standing whatsoever. Only the
Germans, as l have said, have been
working things out in detail more than
the rest"

able stories of Trollope, Charles Reade
or Wilkie Collins. The reader of fic-
ton who has not yet made acquaint-
ance with Hawthorne-in THE Scarlet
Letter" and THE House of the Seven
Gables" for instance-has a rare treat
in store for him.
That Summer reading should be
confined to fiction is another fallacy.
The great histories, biographies and
memoirs have a fascination which is
Independent of season. Moreover, they
are easily obtainable at prices to suit
every pocket or taste in Typography.
The professional man whose practice
requires the frequent consultation of
books desires a change in the vacation
season. He should not allow himself
to become a victim of the Summer
fiction" delusion to the extent of en-
tirely neglecting those works of the
non-f1ction class, which are no less
entertaining than the best novels and
the reading of which means a per-
manent addition to the readers mental
furniture.

ASKED VANDERBILT FOR $500.
Negro Farmer Had Sold Some Land
Once to George W.-GOt the Loan.

Asheville, N. c., Aug. 17.-George

the Southern Railway, will receive a
loan of $500 from George w. Wander

cling coal into the engine of the train
when he observed that George w.
Vanderbilt's private car was attached
to the train. He wrote a note on a
piece of paper he borrowed from the
conductor and got a friendly porter to
convey it to the Vanderbilt car, where
it was received.
The note said that the writer had
once sold to Mr.. Vanderbilt piece of
land which now formed part of the
estate and that he was about to lose
his little home because he lacked $500.
He asked if Mr.. Vanderbilt would lend
him this.
Logan received reply to see Mr..
Vanderbilt in New York. He got a
pass and went to New York, and told
his story to Mr.. Vanderbilt. He was
notified that if he would call at the Of
fee he would get check for $500.

If ever there was a year in our cou-
try's history when our national trou-
bles were the minimum and our ma
tional blessings were the maximum it
certainly seems to be this year of 1909.
Throughout the vast extent of our
domains no epidemic exists, and our
coasts are we'll guarded so that none
may enter.
Our people are in the midst of har-
vests that exceed in their enormous
production the records ever made
since the soil has been responsive to
the work of man.
The broad acres of our land are
supplying the world with the snowy
fiber of the South, so none may want
raiment, and at the same time produc-
ing the grain in such quantities that
none shall be without bread.
There is no room for idlers in our
nation of workers, and the call of duty
to honorable labor is responded to by
our millions of freemen, certain of the
rewards their toll entities them to re-
ceive.
Whether it be the most populous of
our many busy cities, in the lonely
plain or on the most isolated mountain
range, our people are striving nobly
for all that makes life enjoyable and
beautiful, striving unselfishly for those
they love and those dependent upon
them, and are rejoicing in the success
that attends their efforts in this best

After all the furore against Allan

heated attacks of the clergy against
The constituted authorities, that great
resort is now running wide open again
on Sundays. The settlement of the
Sunday problem at a resort is not so
easy as it appears on the face. The
minister in his study, and the reform
er in his Office, can plan it out very
easily, but when public sentiment is
in favor of relaxation of the rules the
pressure is apt to be too great for the
officials to Withstand it. This is the
common experience also in cities. In
this world it is frequently necessary
to accept a compromise rather than to
force an ehdeavor to have things as
we believes they should be.

Next month nine hundred Demo-

was not created to die. It's inherent

Chairman Knapp, of the Interstate
Commerce Commission, declares the
outlook is that the pressure on the
railroads for freight transportation
this fall will be almost, if not fully,
as great as before the panic and that
there must be some embarrassment as
a result of the inability to supply
cars. The country will not be in
clined to put up such a howl, though,
after the last two years of empty
cars as it did just before the depres-
sion came on. The public has cooled
off under the lesson of adverse bust
ness conditions and is inclined to be
more reasonable in it's exactiOns.

1t is this unsefishness, combined
with devotion to duty, that gives our
people their predominance among the
nations of the earth, and that makes
their abiding place the home of the
highest form of civilization, the camp
of the vanguard of the 1egions of

A marvel of the ages is our repub-

Throughout the day she haunts the
store
And prices scores of things,
While busy salesgirls set before
Her trinkets, gloves and rings,
She turns them DER and DER again,
And looks them through and
through
With much deliberation, then
She hardly thinks they'll do.
Sometimes she goes from shop to shop
Each morn and afternoon,
And never seems inclined to stop
Nor with fatigue to sWoon.
She asks the price of Irish lace,
Of linen damask, too,
And then remarks, with doubling face,
The styles are scarcely new.
From morn till noon, from noon till
night
She's on her task intent,
She looks at everything in sight,
But doesn't spend cent.
At last with WEAKNESS she signs,
An means that shoppings hard,
And then with courage high she buys
A picture postal card.
