fr so long. Charles seems to me to be
tn normal healthy boy. He does ex-
actly what all freshmen in o. Univar-
sity do whin they enther. ; peo-
pie what books they shud read he
invints a new religion. Ivry well or
dhered la-ad has to get these two things
out iv his system at wanst. Later he
begins to shave more as a hard neces-
sity thin as a boast, an about that time
he goes through a peeTyOd iv injoyin'
.coIledge. They all take tn usual coorse.
He'll paint tn statues that've been up
in tn eolledge yard FIR so many cinch-
ries. he'll remove tn clapper out iv tn
meetin' house bell, he'll run off with
tn sign in front ~ tn doctors office.
But these are mere boyish pranks. No
wan is tn worse f'r thin. Tn young
fellow is given a few exthra lines to
write in his forehead. That'n be pun
ishmint enough.
What books does he advise, says We?
I haven't got tn complete list Yet, ebut
what I seen iv it was good. Speak
in f'r mesilf alone. don't read books.
They're too stimylatin'. 1 can get tn
same wrong idees iv life firm dhrink.
But 1 shud say that if a man was a
confirmed book reader. if he was a man
that cudden't go to sleep without tax
I'M a book, an if he read befure break
fast I shud think that Doctor Eliot's
very old waited books are comparatively
harmless. They are sthrong. it is thrue.
They will go to tn head. I wud advise
man who is aisily affected be books
TO stick to Archibald ClaYering Gunter.
