 The boy sat very still.

in attending vaudeville matinees
and one spent in camping by the
ocean, he would have small trouble
in deciding which would bring him
the truest recreation. There is
a like difference in recreative values
between the reading of some of the
days ''best sellers and the
masterpieces of fiction. Most peo-
pie want fiction for summer reading
but there is a difference in fiction.
To lay down one Of the systemat-
ical little stories which people de-
scribe as 80 clever" and 80
sweet" for a novel of genuine
worth, is like passing from the
whirl Of a merry.go-round to the
presence Of the mountains and the
sea.

contains authors so we'll known as
Jane Austin, Victor Hugo, and so
new as Mrs. Wharton aud Gilbert
Parker. There, fer instance is that
wonderful romancer, Alexander
Dumas. To read one of his books
say the Three Musketeers--is to
forget the world and dwell in
ceaseless paradise. The reader
will come in touch with a great,
sunny life. rejoicing in all the acci
dcnts of existence. And you will
find Charles Kingsley, whose fresh
ness and vigor seize upon the read
er irresistably; the roots OF feeling
strike down into the hearts of life.

EMPEROR WILLIAM
INVITES GOETHALS
Wants to Hear From the Latter Re-

Level Canal as is Being Constructed.
BY Associated Press.

Berlin, March emperor William.
who is keenly interested in the Pana-
ma canal, has invited Lieut.. Col. Geo.
w. Goethals, of the general staff of
the United States army and chief en-
ginec )f the canal, to luncheon at the
palaCo on March 10th, thus interfering
with the plans of Col. Goethals to re-
turn Immediately TO Panama.
The emperor is known to hold diff
ferent opinions from those Of the
American engineers in regard to a sea
level, as opposed to a lock canal, and
also on the inadequacy of the Panama
locks for the expected batJleship de-
velopment. These opinions are based
on reports of German engineers and
the emperor has now seized the oppor
tunity of comparing his views with
those Of Col Goethals who has re-
turned from inspection of the Klel ca
nal and other engineering works.
