suggestions about beautifying the farm home and grounds and editorial chats with sub scribers on timely topics These admir able features and the weekly Sunday school lessons in which many farmers

the Mnn Who line a Mountain oi Debts With Balzncs rising fame rises the mountain of his debts writes a critic These starting from his two disas trous years of printing and publishing In Paris accumulated until at the top of his literary renown he had to hide from his creditors in a garret under the name of his landlady or his washer woman In 1837 Balzac at that dar the best known and the most debated novelist in France owed 1G2000 francs about 32500- Then he must needs buy a cane which was the talk of Paris some gold buttons for a new coat a divine opera glass and a dressing gown beyond words and give a dinner to the dandies of the opera respecting which Rossini said that lie had not seen more magnificence when he dined at royal tables Balzac three times a millionaire would still have buried himself in debt for the mental exaltation of his crea tive hours was reproduced when he broke loose from the galley bench He lavished in anticipation the wealth he had dreamed would be his This gone he borrowed anew or devised another of those schemes that Avere to enrich him beyond the possibilities of litera ture His schemes were essentially a part of Balzac the sovereign uncon querable visionary He would transport oaks from Po land to France nothing like oaks from Poland to make your fortune three times over Behold him again gravely working out his plan to make a corner in all the arts and putting up the Apol lo Belvedere for competition among the nations to act as auctioneer to Eu ropethe child man as his devoted sister Mme Surville uspVlo call him CHAINED BOOKS The CuHtoni nt One Time Extended to Lincolns Inn London When one looks in bookshop windows nowadays and contemplates the be wildering abundance of volumes of all kinds of literature offered at the low price of 150 or less he finds it diffi cult to realize that time was when a Bible cost as much as 10000 in our present money No wonder it was kept chained in churches The Black Books of Lincolns Inn London show that this practice of chaining obtained there There is an entry during the reign of King James I that decent stooles be provided and that moveable desks be also made and chains for the book and a few years later the inn payments include 20 shillings for twenty dozen of chains and rings for the library and there is a fresh order made that all considerable bookes be chayued It appears that none of the existing books in the library retain their chains or any part of them but a considerable number about forty still have riveted to the binding the ring or hasp by which the chain was attached and many more show the mark left by rings now removed The moveable desk and the de cent stoole were essential appurte nances of a chained library of any size Even the zeal of a mediaeval student was not equal to holding a chained folio In the accounts of the Middle Temple chayns for the bokes of the librarie is a constantly recurring item and a reader in Grays Inn in bequeath ing his library gives 40 shillings to the intent that he the trustee maie by chaynes fasten so many of them in the librarie at Grays Inn as he shall thinko convenyente Mrs Gummidse We have her with us always Her nose droops her mouth turns down at the corners her complexion is generally sallow her eyes lusterless and when small tribulation or great calamity hap pens to the family she feels it more than the others Wonderful is Dick ens delineation of Mrs Gunimidge whom little Davy found such treasure trove for his interested observation who when the chimney smoked or the potatoes failed wept silently because forsooth I feels it more than others She is the girl at school who forever is having her feelings hurt Very sensi tive say her friends very self con scious sniff her critics Philadelphia Telegraph Purls Court Trials The demand for seats at a Paris court trial is utilized by the poor to turn an honest franc The courtrooms usually admit of but forty visitors other than the regular court officers It is common for a crowd to collect in front of the court many hours before the door is open and wait patiently in line Just before the trial begins when the doors are open these men who have perhaps been standing all night in the rain are glad to sell their places for a few francs Iler Conclusion Ive got my opinion of a woman that cant cook growled William De Kikkur glaring at his better half I suppose that if our cook would get married Id starve to death You neednt worry about that Wil liam said Mrs De K gently Our cook has been married once and I dont consider It at all likely that she would care to But her irate spouse had slammed the door behind him Cleveland Leader Honrslnns Waists Doctor said a fashionable belle what do you think of tight lacing The doctor solemnly replied Mad am all I can say is that the more a womans waist is shaped like an hour glass the sooner will her sands of life run out The head of a theological school once said Ive seen so many fools succeed and so many geniuses come to nothing that I have ceased to prophesy Christian Register DANBURY Mrs Wycoff is on the sick list Sims Newman had two cars of cattle on tho Kansas City market Tuesday Mrs
