Cheap Books on RELIGION.

Secondhand religious books are a

is apparent to everyone who makes
the rounds Of bookshops. Ponderous

preachers 60 begging for buyers at
five and ten cents. A man with 4
hobby for religious books can stock a
library with them for 500 at that
rate. Many times Tip has seen push
carts in Grand, Canal, Rivington and
other east side streets literally groan-
ing beneath their loads Of religious
books, which found few takers at one
cent apiece. Let those who are skep-
tical on these points pay heed when
next they look over the book trays in
front of the places in Twenty-third,
Fifty-ninth and other streets whereon
secondhand books are sold. Let them
also look at the names of the authors
of those books and see how cheapiy

FACT HE HAD OVERLOOKED
Lover Of Bowling Game Might Have
Attained Same Result at Much
Less Expense.

1.-THE obvious fact is often the most
evasive," remarked the New York
man. "This is what mean: An old
boyhood friend of mine who has re-
manned back home in Maine made his
first trip to town yesterday. Natu-
rally he sought me out. took him
to the club with me. In the course of
the afternoon l went to the bowling
alley and joined some men at the
game. My friend refused to play, but
watched the progress of the game with
evident interest. 1t was an off day
with me and l was stuck for nearly
every game After the seventh or
eighth frame my friend stepped up to
me with some concern in his eyes and
asked, I suppose you like to play this
game?'
"'Certainly,' l replied
"'You play it for the exercise, prob.
ably?'
Il said that l did

II admitted that it had already cost
me about $40 that afternoon.

Qriuin of Commerce.

history as the Phoenicians. The yam.

traded with various peoples long be-

up the coast of the Atlantic as far
north as the British Isles, their ships
were to be found, leaving their manu-
features and wonderful dyes, and bring

other articles as paid them to deal in.

Importance of Details.

Spare no pains in collecting details
before you generaiize, it is only when
details are generated that a truth Is
grasped. The tendency to general1ze
is universal with all men who achieve
great success, whether in art, liter
ature, or action The habit Of gener-
alizing, though at first gained with
care and caution, secures by practice
a comprehensiveness of Judgment, and
a promptitude of decision which seem
to a crowd like the intuitiOns of
genius. And, indeed, nothing more
distinguishes the man of genius from
the mere man of talent than the facul-
ty of generating the various details.
each of which demands the aptitude
of special talent. but all of which
can only be gathered into a single
whole by the grasp of mind which
may have no special aptitude for any

Mrs Julia Ward Howe is said to be
largely responsible for the election of
George Ii Fall as mayor Of Maiden,
Mass. During the campaign one of

Spectacular Scene at Fire.

Sensational scenes were witnessed
at a fire which broke out recently in
the St Petersburg palace of Grand
Duke Nicholas Nicolaievitch, which
contains great art treasures and much
valuable plate Several notable pic
lures by Rubens and Vatican, valued
at more thar G65,000, were destroyed.
Two servants persisted in the flames,
while many were injured. Some Is
persons endeavored to escape by fee
ing across the iron roof Of the burn
ing palace, which, after the cutting
of the electric cables, suddenly be-
came electrified. The refugees ap-
peared to be suffering fearfully from
the electric shocks, and were seen to
dance grotesquely amid the rising
flames They were eventually saved
by the fire brigade. the members Of
