Placing Books on Shelves

''I have been paying a visit to a friend who is a great book-lover," said a young woman, "and the moment I walked into her living room-it is a sizable affair." was impressed with the arrangement of books on the shelves of the bookcases which well lined the room.
 What was it? Simply that the books were showed as far back as possible, in- stead of being close to the front edge of the shelves. I remarked upon this as being unusual
 My hostess said I was not the first person who had spoken of it; she went on to explain why she did it, and really her reasons were so sensible that I decided then and there, to follow suit with my modest number of books at home.
 The chief advantage is that dust is not allowed to accumulate behind the hooks-a bugbear every housekeeper has to meet-for the books pushed as far back on the shelves as possible, there is no op- portunity for dust to gather behind them. The wider portion of the shelves in front of the books is easy to keep dusted.
 This all makes for cleanliness as well as for longer and happier life for the books, for more books are injured from dust than from usage.
 "Of course, at first the unevenness of the front line of the books is surprising, but if the books are in sets this uneven ness is really trihing, after all, and when one considers the advantage of the sys- tenn the esthetic sense may for a time be relegated to secondary place."

A Princes Amusing Plight

curious misadventure which a few days ago befell Prince Furstenburg has just become known. The Emperor's S friend was travelling to Slawentzitz to attend the funeral of the late Prince Hoh enhole, and had retired to rest in a sleeping cc- after handing his clothes over to his valet. who took them with him to compartment In the next car riage.
 Owing to the large number of prince ly personaseS who were journeying to the same destination it was found nec- cssary to divide the train en route. Un- fortunately, the sleeping car with Fringe Furstenburg was sent on in ad . vance. while the servant and the clothes Jagged behind. At Kandrzin the slum- berer was awakened by an official, who told him that he must change trains, and consequently resume his attire. The latter part of this injunction, however. It was impossible to follow, since the prince had nothing at his disposal but the night shirt he was wearing
 As the car he was in was bound fur ther. in a direction that was not his, there was nothing for it but to make dash across the platform in his scanty garb and secrete himself in a waiting room until the missing garments turned up. The valet arrived a quarter of an hour later. but before his master had completed his toilette the second train bad departed, and the only way to reach his destination in time was to telegraph to Stawentzitz for a motor car.

Men, Women and Life

Gines spoken by Forbes-Robertson as the Stranger in the play, "The Passing of the Third Floor Back.') Women are so willful, and you kind women are the worst of all. It is the thought of youth that shall one day make the world young. Duty so soon tires-love goes all the way.
 It is a great privilege to be deemed worthy to suffer.
 It is the helpless and the fallen that hold in their hands the patents of nobil- ity.
 Nothing. it seems to me, is more beau tiful than the love that has weathered the storms of life.
 This is what we will tell to the young men-that the fear that keeps men little is the fear of being great.
 You are young enough not to have for gotten the thoughts of youth; old enough to have learned pity.
 The love of the young is for the old it is the beginning of life. But the love of the old for the old, that is the begin ming of things longer.
 The whole round world, what is it but woman's child-claining from her tender ness.
 It Is the worlds book, so full of the vulgar stories of dead love- It is pleasant to come across one with the old-fash- | toned ending. Love! She is a woman. And all mel can she love-save one. With all men | may she dwell-save one; with all mer save the coward. It is not poverty; it is | the fear of poverty that drives out love
