SHAKESPEARE.
BY DIR. FRANK CRANE.
Copyright. 1913. by Frank Crane)
Back TO Shakespeare,

Back to Shakespeare.
Study him in your youth, and in your
old age he will come back to COM
fort you.
If YOU would be a writer. learn from
him how grandeur of thought can flow
in Hmpid style. and how an exquisite
Judgment can choose the one word
wherein trembles the essence of con-
viction.
If you would speak in public, let him
be your master in that combined con-
ciseness and eloquence that warns
mems hearts while 1t persuades their
minds.
If YOU would know human nature
and grasp the art of living, make ia
miliar friends of his characters, high
and low, mean and noble. and you shall
come into that universally Of expert
ence no man than he has better set
forth.
OF all Times figures he appears the
most amazing. The empires of Ma
poleon and Charlemagne have dissolv-
ed. The books of poets, essayists and
the people as immortal have stood
awhile, and at last have fallen from
their pedestals, but Shakespeare re-
mains, polished and perfect, the admi-
ration of present-day Intelligence as
much as when Ben Jonson sang his
praise.
He has been attacked and derided, his
flaws have been pointed out. His very
existence has been denied. But all the
waves of criticism have beaten in vain
upon the edifice of his fame. He re-
mains today the greatest master of the
greatest language of history. There is
no other author where you can find
English in it's ideal perfection.
He is true master of men. AS has
| been said: What king has he not
| taught state? What maiden has not
| found him finer than her delieacy
What lover has he not outloved? What
gentleman has he not instructed in the
rudeness of his behavior"
Read your Shakespeare. young men
and womeni If he bores you, it is for
the same reason that the noble bores
| the low and narrow; read on, until
you catch step with that majestical
mind: read on, and find your littleness
| falling from you and your soul grow
| ing great!
And rest assured that it is a sad
| thing for us when we cannot have a
| whole-souled admiration for those real
| kings of men whom Time has tested
and all mankind has crowned.
| Buy the small editions of his separate
| pays. Garry a little volume in your
/ pocket. Pencil il. Read, mark, learn
| and inwardly digest. Read aloud his
| sounding phrases TO another or to
| yourself. Commit to memory those
/ lines which find you.
| The mind to whom Shakespeare is a
| constant companion cannot be entirely
| commonplace; for in Shakespeare is the
| soul of the English race at its best.

You can stop for me about Q o'clock,

voice came clearly through the long store
That was another of Jemmy's shortcom-

At that Mr.. Martins frown faded to be

her since she was three years old and had
watched her glide from gay. fippant girl

knew she was silly. but he never had
judged her bold.

cut short their badinage. When the
store was empty again and Brennan not
urged to stay, had breezed to the store
across the street, Martin cleared his
throat and firmly prepared to do his duty
BE you much set on going to that

some odd jobs, and hate to neglect the
store"
"Oh, there won't be any trade" said
Jenny. Everybody in town is going.
Why don't you come along?"

An invention Of interest to ma
chinists has been perfected by Ed
ward Stevens Of this city. Stevens
is employed at the Belmont mill, and
during his spare moments within the
past three or four months has de-
voted his time to perfecting an ar
rangement to simplify an improved
type OF gland for the stuffing box
of centrifugal pump His inven-
tion allows the replacement Of the
gland within comparatively short
time. Heretofore all glands have
been made in one compact mass and
it was necessary to take apart a
considerable portion Of the pump that
lhe part might be applied to the
piston.
Under the patent Of Stevens the
gland is split and the two portions
are interchangeable 1t is but the
work Of few minutes to attach a
new gland in the place Of broken
one and saving in time is the most
important consideration with the new
device There is no danger Of the
gland slipping from its normal po,
ition while in use.
