The differeDco is one of wages. CAMICRON COUNTY I'KKSS, THURSDAY, AUGUST 13, 1903. As to Itooks The man who guardi his book shelves M a sanctunry, who lias a "lit" when the baby grab* someone of bis precious editions ami cracks the covers, who fingers the pages of his books ten derly anil bangs over their illustrations with al most maternal fondness, Is a book lover. The man who gathers "first editions," refuses to cot the pages, and keeps them under lock ami key, is a "crank". Wo cannot all be book lovers, I suppose. We would not wish to be "cranks". There are certainly some people with whom books, like olives, are an acquired taste, or. If liked, are reserved for rare and desperate occa sions. These people are unfortunate, because they do miss a vast amount of pleasure, to say nothing of instruction. Next to the world of out-of-doors, where we can study Mother Nature, I can conceive of nothing more satisfying than the world of books. There we may seek and find anything we crave. If we fail to accomplish, we may read of men and wo men who have accomplished, and we may steal their thrills and resolutions and adapt them to our own use. If wage-earning shuts us up, away from the woods and mountains, in a stupid, dingy, noisy city office, where green things are embodied solely in the office boy, we can yet read of pure air, and solitude, and flowers, and green trees. Of course, we must have imagination. That is the tool of tile book world. It is hard to see the heroic ia our neighbors, so much does the pettiness of life get in between them and us. But give us the right book, and by comparison with its heroism we may see such similarity as to make our friends living heroes and heroines. We learn to appreciate them by having their un conscious good qualities brought before us. Pleasure, and knowledge, and ethical good, are not all the joys of the book world. There the mind can stretch itself and shake off limitations. Everybody can possess at least one shelf of fa" vorile books nowadays. Books are "dirt" cheap, and the most delightful books in the world. It is the worn-out historical novel of 1902-3 which costs sl.lO, Good old-fashioned novels, like '"Cranford", or "The Little Minister", or "Lorna Doone", cost no more than the sacrifice of a neck tie or two pocket handkerchiefs. Attractive, up-to-date editions, too, with Remington, or Gib son, or Peter Newell illistrations. And after all these are the stories that stay with us. Who of us can forget "Babbie", or the delicate tribute of Itarrie to his mother, in Margaret Ogil vy ? We can smile a day long over the four deacons and their interchanged looks of horror at finding that what they had taken to be their little minister's sermon was instead a very ardeut love poem; or over the old lady in the village who "doted" on funerals; or over the little old maid in Cranford who put her cow into red and ruffled flannel drawers lest she take cold. All these are mirthful, and homely, and dear. They are the plainest everyday doings, told with a delicacy which raises them above the common-place. It is a pity that so many of uscontent ourselves with summaries of great books when we may read the books themselves. When we read about Adam Bede, we are missing the personal contract with George Eliot, that extraordinary woman whose understanding of human nature was so deep. Reading about Hamlet and not the drama itself, we lose the simple dignity and the dramatic strength which established Shake speare in the top niche of English dramatists Emporium lias a start toward an excellent library. It has standard histories of the Euro pean states, England and America, and a good 'ot of fiction, comprising Dickens, Kipling, Craw ford, Wallace, and others. It does need biogra phy—not of the dry sort—but the kind that fascinates the ambitious small boy. Boswell's Life of Johnson, for instance, which is far more interesting, with its merry anecdotes, than that learned gentleman could have been himself. Lewes' Life of Goethe is bound to interest any set of girls, and the recently published letters of that gifted woman, Jane Carlyle, in one of which she relates her trials with an Amnion of a serv ant girl would be ftin to any housewife. Barrie, George Eliot, Thackeray, Scott, Hawthorne, Holmes, Lytton, Maupassant. Meredith, Stockton—all of these and more, we shall hail with delight when they appear on the read ing room shelves. As for the children, Kate Douglas Wiggin is the mother of them all. Her "Patsy", with his big brown eyes, his freckled • nicy nose, his big heart, bigger far than his little crippled body and his sad story, must win everybody's heart.
