Nine IntclltitiM)1 meu mil of ton. If
asked how many books thy would care
to have In a private library, would
probably put the numbor well untoward
five thousand. Yet that number le
vastly In exorg of most men's n-il,
Books are inuoh like food. The man
who does not deal In thm needs no
more than he can easily d test. Tho
man who has a library ol even throe
thousand hooks, exclusive ot reference
doors, is not Illioly to know his own
library. But one con hardly be said to
possess a library that bn has not read.
Tho raal lover of hooka will for the most
part oaro to havein hi house only tl oo
books that are as familiar to him ns the
focosof his friends. He should bauble
to glnncc over his " took utensils " with
the knowledgo that every one Is his by
virtue of Intellectual mastery. It Is not
necessary that ho should havo road
every word of overy book, i .ut It is nec
essary that he should Ue familiar with
tho spirit of each, and that ho should
havo thoroughly mastered tho contents
or many.
Masurod by these rules, tho size of n
prlvnto library dwindles to a number far
below that likely to be fixed by most n r-
pons of whom nn opinion on tho subject
might be asked. If a man begins tbe
collection of a library at twonty-flve
years ot ngo, nnd sols boforo himself the
ownnrshlp of 2,nOO books worth having
and worth reading, he will find thnt he
has laid out almost a lifetime's readinrr.
If it be supposod that boforo beginning
uis collection no nusreau tnroe uuuuro i
volumes worthy of a pornmnont placo in
his library, there will bo still 2,200 vol
umes to bo read between the age of
twenty-five and the coming on of thnt
timo wnerem no man can read. If he bp
allowed forty-Uvo years of reading, ho
must average noariy uity noons a yoa'
almost one a week. Perhaps this does
not seem so lormidahlo to tho men and
women who'dovour fl'ty Summer novels
in a season, indeed. It is not formlda.
bio to any habitual re ider of oven seri
ous books, but tho library in ti'iestlon It
not only to be road, but to bo iiiastni-Hd.
A lad of sixteen boasod that ho had n nd
auoi otu&oapeare in a singio winter,
and doubtless he did so : but tho uowo
man does not count a play of Shakt-s-pearo
read until ho hns gone over It ut
least a tlozon times, nnd nftor that,
scenes anu passages aro lert lor further
si itdy.
Every man that btiB tho ambition to
own a considerable library probably has
also souio lntelloctunl hobby, noma sub
ject upon which ho wishes to make him
self especially woil Informed. It so.be
must koop a corner in his library for
books bearing upon this subject. These
books latent figure uniong his 2.D0O as
technical. Then if ho road French nr
Gorman or tho ancient classics, or nil of

Indigestion
uwkm iii" wi m
IS notonly a distressing complalntf of
A Itself, but, by causing the blood to
become depraved and the system en
feebled, is the parent of innumerable
maladies. That Aycrs SarsapariUa
is the best euro for Indigestion, even
whon complicated with Liver Complaint.
' is proved by tho following testimony
from mis. Joseph Xiako, of Brockway
Centre, Mich.:
"Liver complaint and indigestion
made my life a burden and came near
ending my existence. For more than
four years I suffored untold agony, was
reduced almost to a skeleton, and hardly
had strength to drag myself nbout.0 Ail
kinds of food distressed mo, and only
tho most delicate could be digostcd at
all, Within the time mentioned several
fihyslclans treated mo without giving re
let. Nothing that I took seemed to do
any permanent good until I commenced
the use of Ayer's SarsapariUa, which
has produced wonderful results. Soon
after commencing to take the Sarsapa
riUa I could see an Improvement in my
condition. My appetite began to return
and with it camo the ability to digest
all the food taken, my strength Im
proved each day. and after a few
months ot faithful attention to your
directions, I found myself a well
woman, able to attend to all household
duties. The medicine has given me a
new lease of life."

the solid wall toward the peak, leaving
tne open ud on thn outsldo of the wsdl
The kind-hearted workmen nut the Ha
there for a purpose, and every summer
since then wruus have nested In It.
Tills season a pair of bluebirds got
there a few hours before the wrens did
took possession of the Jug without any
ceremony, and bognn to carry bits of
straw and drlod graej into tt at intorvala
of fifteen or tweaty minutes. Toward
noon a pair df wivns flitted into the yard
and sailed around the milk houte two or
three time. Then they mado a dive for
tno opening In tho old Jug, darted into
It, and soon ilew out, equalling splte-
tuiiy. 1 ho reaoon why thoy did this was
because they had found one of tho blue
birds fixing thlniM tip Inside.
Tho surprised bluebird nailed out In
the wren's wk, and then a feathered
warfare was begun that lastod for two
hours. Finding a stranger in a homo
that had been ocoupled by wrens for half'
a oentury, made the little wrens mad all
ovor. Thoy pitched into tho bluebird
and tried to drlvo K away, giving vent to
angry pipes and squolls as they fought.
For a timo tho bluablrd gave battle to
the Httlo birds, but tho two wore moro
than a match for It, and it retired to
tree. 'While it was porohed there, the
wrons flow Into tho Jug and started to
drag out the straw and stuff tho bluebirds
had carried in.
The wrons wero busy oloaning out tho
Jug when tho bluebird ou tho tree was
Joined by Its mftto. All at onoe they
took a boo Hue for tho Jug. Thoy darted
Into it like a flash, and in a seoond tho
wrons came out as though thoy had been
fired. They hadn't boon cowed down by
the larger birds by ft long sight, for they
immeaiateiy turned, darted Into the Jug,
and drove the bluebirds out. Then tho
four feathered combatants had it back
and forth among tho trees for half an
hour, neither party entering the Jug
wnue tno onitie lasted.
Finally they sfoppedllghtlug, and each
sldo began to carry things Into tho Jug,
Tho wrons mado two trips whilo tho
bluebirds wero making ono, and late in
tho afternoon tho wrons had tilled tho
holo so full of twigs that tho hluoblrds
couldn't get In. There was room for the
wrens to go in and out, and thoy hold the
fort against their bigger foes, who mado
sovoral attempts to tear Uio barrier of
twigs away, but without success. Toward
sundown tho bluebirds sailed away and
never camo back, and tho wrens have had
possession of tho old Jug ever since.

Whon you aro gloomy and UnU.ippy

over Imaginary troubles and sigh for tho

A C'noer for the Dutchmen.
A cheer is due the Dutchmen. When
the Prinz Frederiok collided with the
English ship Marpessa, the commander
of a detachment ot Dutch colonial troops
which happened to be on board immed
iately ordered tho assembly .sounded,
and the men fell in on the dealt like
olockwork, in tho faoo of certain loss ot
the ship. Their conduct was an lnvalu
ablo examplo to the passengers and crew
for although tbe entire company were
tnon transferred to the boats with per.
feot quiet and despatch, the Prinz Fred
erick went down as the last boat left
hor side. She carried with hor six
Dutch privates and an officer, who
doubtless had been overwhelmed by tho
waters rushing in at the point of
collision.
