LITERARY HYPoCRITEs.
Here's Writer Who Frankly Admits
He's One of the Clan.


How many of MS If we We're really
honest could make list of great books
that we have tried to enjoy and
couldn't rise to?
We have for our own part greater
sin than that on our conscience. There
are number of books that we habitu-
ally pretend we have read which we
have never read mt all. They are great
books, we suppose. At least We've
heard lot about them and read Il lot
about them, and people who assume to
know say they are great books. Some
of them we have tried to read AMI
couldn't read. but we have pretended
at one time or another to have read all
of them. Here is our list of shame:
TON Jones'" We have tried to read
it four times and could never get five
pages into it.
THE Near Of Wakefield" We have
+ attempted it at. least six times and
taken the count inssthr first round
every time.
"Dante's Divine Comedy We have
been going against the Cary transla-
ton, which we hear is Il good one. ut
least once Il year for twenty years, and
we can't get interested in it. Yet up
10 the present moment we have always
pretended that we had read all of it
and liked it.

THE TREE ON THE ROOF.
An Old Building Custom TO, Propitiatc
the Pagan Gods.

Did you ever stop to think why bit
of orn.iacnt in the form of conven-
tionalized it, grain or flowers is al
most invaraoly added to the gable OF
Il Gothic building and very frequently
to the gable OF any other type of build
ing? DO you know why the lightning
rods of our grandtathers were branch
ed ut the ends like little trees and why
the old fashioned Scandinavian, Dan
ish and German contractors contrive
TO fasten Il branch OF Il tree or an ear
of corn to the topmost peak of house
that has progressed so far in the course
of construction that the rafiers are in
place. Usually the contractor laughs
sheepishly when he is asked about the
matter, giving no other reason than
that his father always provided thel
birds with some grain or offered them
a green branch to rest in.
The fact is that the birds have moth
ing whatever to do with the custom.
1t is purely religious in its significance
and entirely pagan. 1t had its begin
ming before Christianity was inflicted
on the harbarians of the north" The
gable Of building was exposed to
both wind and lightning, so the gods
must be propitiated. For Wotan there
was small evergreen tree and for
Thor there was a bunch of flowers. If
the favor Of the god had been invoked
while the house was still incomplete,
the ceremony must be finished the day
the house was done by the burning of
the little tree or the withered flowers
Then bunch of grain was tied to the
gable to feed the white horse Of the
