A GOOD LIBRARY.
HINTS AND SUGGESTIONS FOR THE
MAN WHO READS.
Thn First Law la Selecting Book A
Library Should Grow with the Mind.
Keep Your School Books IJght litera
ture. Tlir first law in selecting books in, I am
euro, to buy along the line of your tpecial
work. I do not nay In the line, for that i
precisely what ia not w&nUxL What we want
ia not to bo toM what we can hco or find out
for onrsolv, but what will enable us to aoe
tnoro broadly than our M-parmte experience
would l.-od us to see. Book, while not lead
lug us away from mire and special line of
lu work, fchould keep us from narrowing
oursolvoe into groove.
Tho swoiul luw ia to buy books, fn the main,
as we nood them. A library should grow
with tho mind. These two rule can be ilhuv
t rated togothcr. Wo will supioso a man's
njxvial Iido Ls anthropology. Plainly he
must also lx a good student of history. He
must also be well acquainted with recent
biological researches which bivalve paloon
tology and zoology, at lnaat aa far as result
of investigation go. lie will not havo gone
fur Itoforo evolution, as a scientific problem,
mviKt be handled Dealing fairly with this,
he finds himself involved in ancient religious
theories and comiarutive theology. I need
not carry the process further, but I say hi
library should bo (1) a working library along
tills linn, and () his books should be bought
as needed.
Tho possession of a largo number of books
is not tho itosscssion of a library. Books,
'however Inherently valuable under certain
circumstances, undor other circumstances be
come lumber. It is like a thousand acre form,
of which only ten acres are worked, whilo
tho ownr lives in a bit of a hovel It is im
posisiblo to express too strongly the close re
lation tliat mind growth should bear to
1 i brary growth. It should bo like thn growth
of Ixjno to a man's flesh.
No one should sell or give away his books
that have been used and seem no longer need
ful. Especially should old school books and
college books be sacredly kept. To no other
books do we sustain so intimate personal re
lationship. Wo shall surely miss the very
copy of Horace and of De Amicitia that wo
grew familiar with, and some day will desire
to turn to a passage in "Ars Pootica," or
"Via Sacra," and it will not be quite the
same us when wo read it in sophomore year
cm tho log in tho glen with Classmate Stevens.
I give every boy and girl warning not to part
with their text books in literature and
classics. Even my old Webster's spelling
look would now bo a treasure to me. Are
such books part of a library! Most truly,
yes. They aro tho very essential part of a
library tho tools we have used as wa came
ulong but tools tliat never wear out.
Perhaps a careful distinction should be
mado Ix-twecn the books in our study and
those iu tho library proper; for each man
vbouM havo his library, and each family
should havo its library. The latter should be
built on a less roktrictod plan; yet certainly
under careful rules. A home library should,
above all. have an atmosphere of refinement
and goixl society. It should not admit a low
bred Inxik any more than our drawing rooms
should admit tho familiarity of low bred
jh-)1o. An hour spent in it should produce
th refreshment that comes from a social
hour with witty and good friends.
A really good home library must include
rescripts; it is sometimes a pity oftener not.
There are not 100 good authors in general lit
er me that cannot be wisely compressed.
It will not pr.y to read them through. These
"Half Hours" with the best authors are nec
essary and valunble. But when it comes to
history I am not so sure. And as for "Beau
ties of Ruskin," "Beauties of Goethe," etc.,
etc., lot us burn them. . If I cannot go into a
rose gardeu for myself, I will thank you for
u bunch of flowers; but for you to run ahead
of me. with your nose and demand that I
rhnll smell over again your bouquet, I am in
fiined to select for myself.
A rod library grows as our souls grow; it
vri.leiis out its sympathies and gets a larger
jmtlook. But at the same time a sloughing
goes on. We only grow well as we can die
wll. Home people have great difficulty in
dving to anything; they equally fail to grow;
that is, to enlarge. Such are your religious
Ligots. I hate to see tt man who reads an
author by the dose on done a day; two
doses. a day the way my grandmother took
ber Bible and as many take It yot, but in
Eiuuller jxjllets. I have a friend who carries
Shakespeare in his pocket, and bolt a por
tion each day. He resembles for all the world
a pump that is clogged up from having it
chain run too deep. Shakespeare has alwayj
been too deep for the fellow, end he is only
pumping sand and gravel. Another took to
carrying a mathematical treatise. He is him
self an equal angled triangle inscribed in a
circle. We must bo able to change intellec
tually, outgrow and grow away from old
tastes. We all have our chromo period
some stop thero.
Tho bulk of novels is of no more value than
blank paper. Children who havo little real
world as yet nesd a great deal of tho possible
end ideal. Novels, contrary to common
opinion, are peculiarly tho books for tho
young truo novels. Curiously, the world's
earliest literature was mostly imaginative.
W - have poems and tales 7,000 years old,
whilo logic did not find utterance till about
2,500 years ago. Voyages, travels, natural
history gradually come to serve in the place
of novels, the actual in the place of the pos
sible. Lowell urges tho use of such old vol
iiyes of travel as were written by voyagers
' wb.cn the world was fresh and unhack
neyed." That last word of Lowell's tells the
ctory very fully. A well visited place In
England was one that hackney coaches ran
to and from it was Hackneyed. Today the
wholo world is Hackneyed. "E. P. P." In

Cider That Sells for Champagne.
The innkeeper fished out from the gloomy
and cobwebby depths of a sub-counter closet
a quart bottle which bore such marks of age
s would Lave made the mouth of an epi
curean wine bibber water with anticipated
delight. The cork came out with a mighty
pop, and a line spray filled the air with mist
and tho aromatic fragrance of champagne.
"Try a glass of that," said the innkeeper,
as he fillod two glasses with the sparkling
fluid. Tho tourist needed no urging.
"Why, that doesn't taste like cider, neither
is it champagne, exactly. What do you call
itr
"Cider."
'How did you make itf"
"I bottled it throe days ago. It was fresh,
tfweet, strained cider then. I put in each
bottle a couple of raisins and a small lump of
rock candy, and if you can find any cham
pagne that cost less than ten cents a bottle
that will beat that I will buy 1,000 cases
ot it."
"I should think it could be sold in some
country places for champagne?"
"I've sold a good many hundred bottles
ef it"
"Ia what country town!" asked the tourist.

ART ON SAFE DOORS.
A Gllmps at the Artist Who Tat Oil
Painting on th Iron Voorm.
"There are more than 400,000 safe in use
fn the United States," said a Broadway man
facturer to a reporter a few day ago, "and
with a few exceptions their great iron doors
are brightened with artistic designs in oiL
Tho center of th saf painting trade is in this
city. Half a doaan artist are engaged in
tho work. They are all men who havo left
tho private studio and buried their identity
for money.
"One man in particular was an artist of
recognized ability. His studio up town was
one of tho finest In the city, llich draperies
and costly bric-a-brac were on every hand.
Tho floor was inlaid with choice woods, and
valuable specimen of his handiwork greeted
tlio visitor from the wall. A tropical sun
bursting through fleecy clouds shone down
from the ceiling. This man got a good start
from his father, and, a I remarked, bis abil
ity was recognised; but it didnt pan out in
cash. When ho found a customer for a (MX)
painting he lived in clover, and when the art
mart was drugged and pictures went slow he
found it hard work to make both ends meet.
'I've made a name,' said he one day, 'but tho
artist who lives on his name without money
can do more than I can.'
"A week after that," continued tho safe
manufacturer, "he applied to me for work.
If you want to talk with him, come with me."
The reporter then went into the rear apart
ment and found their man at work. One
was painting a scene in the Catskills on tho
cold black front of a 6,000 pound safe that
was billed to bo delivered within ten days to
a western manufacturer.
"Don't imagine," said the artist after the
introduction, "that I have given up being an
artist. Oh, no! I am still turning out
original studies, but my work goes with the
safo liko tho chromo with the pound of tea.
Wo juiint two six by nine landscapes in a
day. Ordinarily one man lays in the ground
work, another fills in tho middle ground and
a third adds the for ground. Wo get up
quite a number of designs to order. On tho
inner doors of that safo over there you will
find a good painting of the lower falls in the
Genesee. That picture is to please the fancy
of a Rochester man who ordered it.
"We have several orders for the Volunteer
in oil. It requires moro time to paint water
acaiies and boats than anything else. Every
line of a crack yacht must bo perfect or fault
will be found with it. If a landscape happens
to be a little too red or brown or green, we
can account for it by saying that the green
painting shows tho scone in early spring and
tho brown in midsummer and the red in
autumn. That, of course, is one of the tricks
of the trade."
"What do you consider the nature of your
work on safes f
"Wo turn out work here," replied the artist
after a moment's reflection, "that would sell
on canvas and with frames around them for
$50. When you are moving around town be
particular to observe the paintings on safe
doors and see if you dont agree with me."

Changes In Parisian Habits.
It is curious to remark how greatly Paris
ian habits havo changed within even tho past
few years, and that, too, not a little owing to
Anglomania. Outdoor exercise is all the rage
nowadays, particularly riding and driving,
and from 9 to 11 in tho morning the Bo is de
Boulogne is the rendezvous of tho prancers
and piaiTeuseH, who, after their morning tob
(Anglico, tub), take a drive in their boguet
(Anglice, buggy) or in their speedair, which
we pronounce spider. But that is a detail.
The grave thing is that those gentlemen and
ladies "very selected" get up early and go to
bed early, and the consequence is that they
do not go to the theatre so much as formerly,
and, above all, they do not care any longer
about first nights. For that matter the mana
gers of the fashionable theatres are now much
exercised to know how to arrange their pro
grammes, for the Parisian dinner hour is get
ting later and later and the bed hour earlier
and earlier. At home few people dine before
7:30; at dinner parties one does not sit down
to tablo much before 8 o'clock; what time re
mains for the theatre? Either one must dine
exceptionally early or else arrive in the mid
dle of the fourth act. At the Opera things
are managed better. By tacit agreement
some old opera is performed for the benefit
of the foreigners and country cousins, and
then toward 11 o'clock the ballet begins for
tho benefit of the subscribers, who drop in
about that hour, and many of whom havo
never heard the overture or even the first two
acts of any opera of the repertory. Nor are
they any prouder or happier on that account.
But still this stato of affairs is unsatisfactory,
and tho theatrical managers feel uneasy in
consequence. Paris Cor. London World.
The Hoy and tho Klepliant.
Many years ago one of the most famous
elephants that traveled in this country was
Old Columbus. During on of his summer
trips through Virginia ho stopped at tho
town of D . In the neighboring town of
H a boy, familiarly called Dave and
notorious for leadership in all kinds of mis
chievous tricks, determined to show off before
tho other boys at Old Columbus' expense,
and invited several of his companions to go
with him.
Having come to the elephant's stable Dave
gave him first candy, then cake, and then
Anally cried: "Now boys!" and slipped a
pieco of tobacco in his proboscis, intending to
get out of danger and enjoy Old Columbus'
disgust and anger,
But before he could move Columbus seized
him and whirled him upward through the
opening overhead against the roof of the
stable.
Unhurt by his unexpected rise Dave
dropped on th hay mow. Tho other boys
below, supposing this to be the trick prom
ised them, cried out in admiration:
"Dave, Dave, do that again!"
Dave, comfortably seated out of harm's
way, very earnestly answered:
"No, boy 8! I only do that trick once a
day." Youth's Companion.
A Million Postage Stamp.
Within the last year hundreds of benevo
lent people were eotually busy begging for
canceled stamps in order to obtain admission
for an old lady in a Philadelphia "home." A
Gerniantown physician took the matter in
charge, and it was understood that when the
necessary 1,000,000 had been collected they
were to be handed over by his wife to a
friend, who was to give them to another
friend, who was to give them to a third, who
knew some one who would arrange with some
body else for the old lady's final reception.
The craze spread so far that packages of
stamps arri ved by every mail from New York,
Washington, Chicago and Boston. Little
schoolgirls and fashionable young women
vied with each other in their eagerness to aid
this good work, and half the requisite number
bad actually been scraped together before it
began to dawn on people's minds that the
only possible use that any "home" could make
ef 1,000,0(30 stamps would be to sell them for
old paper.
Then an enterprising Philadelphia reporter
undertook to hunt up the old lady, whose
name was Peterman, and having found ber,
had the pleasure of hearing from her own
lips that she bad no idea of going into any
institution at alL Harper's Young Peoyl-.
A STEERAGE TRIP.
INTERESTING EXPERIENCE OF A
PASSENGER WHO TRIED IT.
Uliat the Steerage Is Like A Kit of
Hough Weather An Aggregation of
Odors A 111 on Deck How Meals
Were Served.
Tho lertbs in the steerage aro not reserved;
they ure free, and the custom of leaving tho
baggage in them, denoting that they are
taken, is not regarded. The usurper coolly
throws out tho first occuiiant, leddjng, tins
and baggage, not caring if they are injured
or not, then falls asleep and does not awaken
until its first possessor finds another place.
Some one quietly appropriated mine and had
thrown my tins in an ad joining bunk. All
were found except tliat indispensable article,
my bright iron spoon, which was either lost
or taken to complete somo ouo else's outfit.
Tho stewards are good fellows and will give
extra accomodations for a dollar or two.
They will wash tho tins for the small sum of
$1, and will placo in your berth freo of
charge.
One of tho difficulties of a steerage passen
ger Ls to dress and undress. Tho usual way
is to hang tho punts on the end of tho lwrth,
jump into them and quickly grasp hold of
the plunks to keep from bring thrown ugainst
the sides of tho boat when it makes a lurch.
Another way is to kneel, but many a head
was bumped against tho iron lxams when tho
Ierson arose to fix his suspenders. Nearly all,
however, went to bed without undressing.
Tho women have separate aartnients in
the same rnrX. of tho boat, and all become ac
quainted in u short time. They wero carrying
on busy conversations, and the different lan
guages poured out in a torrent, which never
ceased except when tho boat gave a lurch,
and then only for a moment. Dirty faced
children, with their cries and screams added
to tho melody of sounds. I quarreled with
myself for going steerage, but it was too late.
With a sigh of regret I went on deck. Tho
water was calm and beautiful; a pleasant
breeze was blowing and the ride was enjoy
able. Toward night the water becamo rougher
and the boat began to rock. Many began to
experience a dizzy and unpleasai-t feeling,
which constantly grow worse. In a short
time tho gentle laughter and sweet songs had
suddenly changed. I looked around. Thero
was scarcely a woman on deck, and tho men
had well nigh deserted it. Lemons and
oranges wero in demand. The Imu- was prof
itably patronized. The countenances which
a few hours before wero bright and happy
were now palo and troubled. I paced the
deck, as did many others, in the bracing air,
with the hopo of driving away tho miserable
feeling. It was in vain. I had to give up.
All had stopped walking and had taken their
positions at the railing and wero gazing earn
estly at tho water. They may have been
looking at tho phosphorescent light, but I
doubt it Wo wero mado worse by the com
bined odors of carbolic acid, chlorate of lime
(vhich was thrown around profusely), new
paint, tar and grease, and other things known
to those who travel on ships. These smells
made me deathly sick, made me hate the
boat, everybody and everything on it.
It is tho sailors' duty to sweep the decks,
but they ought to have extra pay, and it
should bo collected from the steerage passen
gers. The men wero immoderate smokers,
and tho scent of bad tobacco was another dis
agreeable odor mixed with thoso that were
already rendering my stomach weak. A
Polish Jew carried tho largest and filthiest
pipe, and many times during tho day and
night this big bowl of intolerable scents could
be seen hanging from his mouth. The sick
persons slept on deck all night, dreading to
go in tho steerage on account of the horrible
smell which pervaded it. Tho sailors worked
the whole night managing the sails and wash
ing tho decks, and often tho sleepers were
aroused by tho scrubbers' hose. Tho bn.ro I
deck was tho principal bed; mi no was a coil
of rope, and, notwithstanding tho noise, I fell
into a refreshing sleep,
The seasick people would como to the tables
and try to cat, but as soon as any greasy focxl
was taken the party sought the roiling of tho
boat or the gutters in tho steerage. Finally
they took to their berths, and w-hen tho stew
ards came at meal times to give each his por
tion, they, liko some Rip Van Winkle, with '
shaggy beard and unkempt hair, poked their
heads from their berths and shoved tht-Ir j
plates and basins at the steward to bo filled j
up. There they sat and ate. If the food hud j
tho wrong effect, they stretched their heads i
over the berth and looked at the door. Somo
ato and washed in the same basin, for it was
too much trouble to carry a whole dinner set.
The steward every morning swept out the
steerago, though the agents of tho steamship
lines say they are washed out, and sprinkled
the floor with sawdust, chloride of limo, car
bolic acid, etc.
In three days the steerage passengers were
all well, and when the dining bell rung every
one rushed to the tables. Tho steward dealt
out from large buckets each man's share, and
to the credit of the steerago they behaved
very well, though table etiquette seemed out
of placo. It is different coming to America
tho class of people is so unliko. Sometimes
four or five are in straight jackets at once.
Tho food was in good condition and well
cooked, and every one got plenty. We wero
given for breakfast coffee, tea, bread, oat
meal and butter; for dinner, vegetable soup,
boiled beef, potatoes, rice and stewed apples.
Sometimes this would be changed, cud on
Sunday cherry pudding would be given for
dessert; for supper the same as for breakfast.
Who cannot live on this for seven days?
Many a steerago passenger fares better on
the boat than he does in his own home. For
merly th9 steerage passenger was given his
day's allowance, but he had to cook it; and
this is probably the reason why many bring
canned food with them, thinking they havo
to do their own cooking. Now, by getting
on the good side of tho cooks and paying
them 85, they may get almost cabin fore.
After eating all go on deck to wash their
tins. Tho rest of the day would bo spent in
lounging around, sleeping on deck, playing
cords and telling yarns. At night those who
had any music in them would sing a few
songs. They would bo accompanied by a
broken winded accordion or by a melancholy
flute. The most respectable would join in tho
songs and sports cf the sailors and cabin
boys; and many an evening was pleasantly
spent in this way. Some of them, rather
than be idle, would help to do the work, end
when the sails were put out many as could
pulled on the ropes.
The steerage passengers get over sea sick
ness sooner than the cabin passengers, w ho
have so much richer food. Somo of the cabin
passengers were sick tho entire trip, bat
would come on deck the day before landing,
perhaps afraid of being quarantined.
To cross the ocean for health, it is, in lay
opinion, a mistake for a young man to go
cabin. Because the cabiu is so finely fur
nished that when he gets sea sick he wjl go
to his berth, and, having some one to wait on
him, he will very likely stay there during the
whole voyage; whereas, the steerage being
not so comfortable, and tho odors not so j
pleasant, he will bo forced on deck, the place j
where he ought to be, "A. L. S." ja Kanyj .

A Cere for Clinppod T.Ips anil a Study ot
tho Cjuno of Wrinkle.
"As soon as tho cold winds l'gin to blow,"
remarked a physician, "I am overrun v.ith
patients s:j!7 ring from chnpod lijm. The
trouble generally manifests Sit in ono wide
cut in the middle of tho lip. I usimI to treat
su'-h things us a laughing mutter and pro
scribe somo simplo emollient, such ns fdyecr
ino, for instance. But I eoom found that
such treatment was only a temporary n iiusly,
for after pnrtiully hen ling the cut would ojxn
at tho Bliglitst exertion of the lijs. Tho
mero act of biting anything hard, laughing
or yawning would mako the unfor'uuai"
howl with pain. If the patient was addicted
to tho uso of tobacco th') chances were. tl:at
ho would have a bud lip ell through th win
ter. Iu my researches for a iTinanent cure
I ran across an old trump printer who h-l
rubbed against the rough sido of tho world
all his life, ami for whom every season had
been a cold day. He told mo that if I inves
tigated tho matter I would lind that tho p-o-ple
addicted tochnpiol lips were in tho habit
of touching them with their tongues. A sure
cure, said he, is to keep your tonguo in your
mouth. I have since followed his suggestion
in my practice and nover knew it to fail. Tho
rough skin of the tongue scratches the lips,
and when they huvo onco become chapped
tho least contact is enough to keep tho cut
oihmi.
"I havo recently been making a stuily of
wrinkles," continued the doctor. "It ia cus
tomary to say that wrinkles como from wor
rying, but the truth is thut most of them
come from laughing. This is rather para
doxical, I must admit, but I havo boon only
convinced after tho most careful investiga
tion. To know how to laugh is just as im
portant as to know when to do it. If you
laugh with tho sides of your face the skin
will work looso in time a-id wrinkles will
form in exact accordance with what kind of
a laugh you have. The man who always
wears a smirk will huvo a scries of semi-circular
wrinkles covering his cheeks. When a,
gambler, who has been accustomed to sujt
pressing his feelings, laughs, a deep liiso
forms on each side of his nose and runs to tho
upier comer of his mouth. In time this line
extends to tho chin and assumes the shape of
a half moon.
"A cadaverous person with a waxliko skin
is very apt to have two' broaxlly marked
wrinkles, one running up from tho jaw and
tho other under tho eye. Theso meet at
right angles at tho cheekbone and look us
though they formed a knot at the apex. The
scholar's wrinkles form on his brow, whilo
tho scheming politician's come around his
eyes, where they look for all tho world liko
the spokes of a wheel. Some of tho fat wonvn
who bet on horses have the most astonishing
crop of wrinkles I ever saw outside of an ele
phant. Ono in particular was so strongly
marked that whenever she smiled over a big
win the wrinkles in each cheek would form
themselves in the thai e of a perfect pretzel.
New York Evening Sun.
Full Purties ami Kind ITearts.
It is not in human nature to bo just and
humane when robbed of its duo experience of
life's fundamental conditions. Whatever
narrows a man's experience narrows his sym
pathies, and whatever confers on him irro
sjonsiblo power tempts him to abuse it.
Now, riches do both theso things. Whatever
exceptional experience they may provide,
they certainly withdraw their owners from
much that must always enter into tho life of
tho large majority of human kind. Theso
must always anxiously labor and bo content
with moderate means. Between lifo condi
tioned in this way and life free from labor
and anxiety thero is fixed a gulf which sym
pathy could hardly cross,' even if it would,
for it is chained on the ono sido by prido and
on the other by envy.
Sometimes, indeed, if a man has risen to
riches by his own rlForts, he may so far re
member his life of poverty as to r2tain a cer
tain sympathy for thoso whom ho has ."
behind him in it; but this is rare, for th?-
reasons; First. Men caring enough for riches
to be vi',ling to devote much time to the ac
quisition of them are usually of n somewhat
low, material and unsympathetic nature.
Second. In their ascent to riches, after the
first fow steps, they have to use other men as
stopping stones, for no man, unless ho have a
monopoly talent, liko Raphael, can rise to
riches otherwise. Nearly all great fortunes
aro made up of profits caught in labor traps.
Such using of other men solely as means
loads to forgctfumoss that they aro ends,
hardens tho heart and destroys sympathy.
Third. Men who havo mado their own for
tunes self mudo men, as they aro wisely
called havo usually a great deal of resjxict
for their maker, and a proportionate con
tempt for those who, having less cunning
than themselves, have remained ia the ranhs
of poverty. Thus, it frequently happens that
self made men are among tho least humane
of aristocrats. And tho case is even worse
with their children and with all persons born
to wealth. These lack altogether the experi
ence that would enable them to sympathize
with the ordinary, natural human life of
labor and narrow means. Raised above it,
they cannot comprehend it. Professor
Thomas Davidson in The Forum.
The Clerks and the Customer.
The trouble with tho clerk is a superabund
ance of inflated ideas regarding tho import
ance of himself and his position. Instead of
filling his proper place as the servant of tho
public he assumes a lordly uir, apes feminine
talk and ways and welcomes male customers
with a crushing glare. Of courso there aro
exceptions. Thero are clerks in tho largo
dry goods stores who know their placo and
their business, and by a remarkable coinci
dence they are almost confined to ono nation
ality the Scotch. Experience has shown
many of the great dry goods houses that
Scotchmen make the best salesmen.
The Americans are sometimes suffering
with the big head, and besides assuming to
know more than the proprietor, do not hesi
tate to indicate to the male customer any
shortcoming that they may observe. To tho
women they are moro polite, and it ia only
the preference of women for male clerks that
keeps them in the business. It has been
found that women can transact their busi
ness with men much more satisfactorily than
with women. When a woman approaches a
counter behind which a saleslady is manip
ulating ribbons, tho chances are ten to one
that tho saleslady will first critically observe
the wearing apparel of the customer. If it
doesn't come up to the saleslady's ideas of
what constitutes a proper outfit, tho sales
lady's nose will probably assume a cru'blr'g
elevation and sho will proceed to unravel tho
ribbons with an air that say 'I an just rs
good as you, if J. am here." St. Louis Repub
