AS a general rule. however. would
say, do not give the child these books.
Yet there are certain great books
which even the fortunately placed
child is not likely to read through,
not, at least, until he is we'll grown,
and not invariably then. Such books
as these 1t Is of value for him to
have in simplified editions. In this
list / would put 'Froissart's Chron-
icles." simplified into 1.-THE Boys

Odyssey the "1lliad" ETC.. while
certainly never intended for such use,
might be extremely useful 1t seems
to me. to parents who, from lack Of
taste or time, have never read the
great books themselves. Give the I'M
diluted books to children, and keep
the diluted form for yourself For
II you have no time to read the

of the story to put you in sympathy

The mere possession OF a great book
is something. The mere quiet pres
ence of the great and lordly ones In
literature is an elevating kind OF
thing. And it makes a difference in
the child. It really does. So potent,
SO powerful. are the great and good
that I believe 1t does boy good
merely to sleep In the same room with
some volumes that are theirs.
1t adds something to child's mem
tai and moral stature merely to pos
sess. and to know that he possesses,
some of the worlds best literature.
AAnd il to the one volume were added
more, and these were suitably Illus
trated SO as frequently to tempt his
attention, it is reasonably certain
that in some odd hour of seeking or
idle mood he would explore for him
self and in time come to possess some
of the hidden riches, says writer in
the Womans Home Companion.
There are hundred ways in which
the value of the better books will
come to him. Even IL he does not.
among his companions, hear them
spoken of, he will note their names
here and there he grows older-often
referred to; he will meet them again
and again.
These evidently have wide repute;
these are world citizens; and he,
mind YOU, has known them for years.
IT gives him kind OF dignity and
sort of pride, not only pardonable,
but a desirable pride, of being mem
tally, as 1t were, well-born. His mind
has mingled among these always; he
needs not to be introduced to them;
these are friends of old.
One question that am asked often
is whether ] deem it advisable to
give children great books retold in
simpler language, great books diluted,
as it were.
While in some cases these are
valuable, yet In general believe they

used to say when a child and l

There was one line missing. l

THE SMACK IN SCHOOL.
A district school, not far away,
Mid Berkshire hills, one winters
was humning with its wonted
OF t nDlse mingled girls and
boys;
But more on furtive mischief bent.
The while the masters downward
look
Was fastened on q copy-book;
When suddenly, behind his back,
Rose sharp and clear a rousing
smack!
AS 'twere a battery Of bliss
Let off in one tremendous kiss!
whats that?" the startled master
cries;
"That thir,'' little imp replies,
"Wath William Width, If you

I thaw him kith Thuthanna

with frown to make statue thrill.
The master Numbered, "Hither,
Will"
Like wretch o'ertalken on his track,
With stolen chattels on his back,
VIII hung his head in fear and
shame,
And to the awful presence came
A great, green, bashful simpleton,
rrhe butt of all good-natured fun.
With smile suppressed, and birch
appraised,
The threatener faltered = "r'm
amazed
That you, my biggest pupil, should
Be guilty of an act so rude!
Before the whole set School to

What evil genius put you to II"
"Twas she herself, sir" sobbed the
lad;
IT didn't mean to be so bad;
But when Susanna shook her curls
And whispered, | was 'fraid of girls
And dursn't kiss a baby doll,
| couldn't stand 1t, sir, at all,
But up and kissed her on the spoil
