IT IS pleasant to tlnd, as ve do
In the lltciary supplement of "the
Chicago rtecord-Heiald for June
Jt.an admliablv written teply by
n glil of seventeen, in the fouith eai
of the high school ionise in an Illinois
tov n to a wldelv coplerl aitkle fiom

Clirls Iiead. ' quoting an unturned II
brail in 3 lemaikable statements The
f tatements In question weic of a ehar
acter that sillied the uipiite and In
dignation of many ol "the oidlnaty

tion said. "Bovs- naturally tead good
bonks, lind hlstoi) and blogiaphy full
of force and dramatic action, while
girls, almost from thii infant) turn
to miudlln sickly, and Injuilous love
stories "
At the time the Sun article appealed
we weie tempted to refer to It, with
evidence, of which thcie Is an) amount
on hand, thoioughly contiadktoi) so
far as the "average' or "oidliniy"
gill in most places is concerned, of
what the wiltei. or the poison quoted
h) him, had to say. If we lemember
aright the "llbraiian" was spoken of
as nam a New Knglund city a section
where 'Vulture" Is supposed to exist
n foite Tint made the aitkle nme
suiprlFlng Comment on it was eiowd
wl out a the time. But It is woith
giving now goodly sliaie of the
fply of Miss Maiy Cunningham of
Mount Cireenwood, Illinois, the writer
of the letter In question.
She speaks tiit of John Buskin's very
ilfferent Judgment who advised the
ather to "tutn his daughter Into the
Ibiary. as )ou turn a fawn Into ,i
Jeld. and .he will know the had weed
venty times Hitter than you, and will
ead thegoivf books." This sime
Ruskln ?a"7s,of books of "hunting and
adventure and fighting," which the
lbrarlaiv In question commends so
nlghly. (Aat ' they become dangerous
their 'xc(tement. render the ordln
ir.v coursft of life unlntciestlng and in-
Tease the moibid thlist for useless ac
tualntanceshlp with scenes in which
re shall never be railed upon to act."
Miss Cunningham proceeds "The
writer of the article says, "I have
rled my bst to Interest gltls In books
rhlch will take them out of themselves,
t Is quite useless.' The question sug
;ens Itself, Is It safe to Inteiest one
n a book which so takes him out of
ilmself that he becomes absorbed In
in unreal, unnatuial, Impossible life?
This Is uhnt niv linnkn tin ii.ittln-
- -....- ... , ., ..v-
Nilarly those books which the wilter
iiniy states boye love. The greater
lumber of boys of average abilities
:rV for nbmoks at all. In my experl
mre the girls are always the readers.
"When about U years of age I
tttendd a district school In which, of
sourse. ere boys and girls of all ages
'rom 4 to 16, an Ideal place to study
hlld tastes and Interests. Kvery after
mon our teacher read to us from
pavld Copperfleld,' 'Uncle Tom's Cab
n' or some ?ther standard novel. We
Iris fiequently became so Interested
In the stories that we forfeited half an
hour of teerevtlon In order to have
them read to us, and sat In school,
deeply Interested, while tho bo)s play
ed ball outside.
"The vwlter sa) gltls will not retd
historic novels because they cannot
plctute to themselves the chaiacteis,
In other words ha asseits they have no
Inwg'lnntlon. J have wnlked In tho
street with gills who have rend these
very novels which he usscrto gltls will
not read, and hraid them say, 'There
goes .Mlcnwber,' 'That's what I plctuio
I'lokwlck to bo.' I havo never met a
boy whoso Imagination had so vividly
pictured the chatactcis of tho books ho
had lead.
"Wo acknowledge that many, alas,
too many gills ie.nl sill), sentimental
novels', but theli number Is equalled
by the host of bo) who toad what Is
commonly called 'dime novels,' those
terrible publications that have wiought
more evil than tho cigarette habit,
and whose wide iltculatlon makes us
wonder If Caxton'a printing pi ess Is
really a blessing to mankind. Let us
be candid, acknowledge tint 'there Is
much to bo said on both sldotc' ami that
girls are as capable of leading and
ippreclatlng good books lis their
brotheis."
A wide acquaintance with gills of
all ages, extending over many jeais,
with thoir tastes In leading and their
actual acqu ilutancc with llteiatuie, as
conipaied with tho loading and tho
liking of their brotheis and othrr gltls'
brotheis. beairt iih out In certifying
that Miss Cunningham vviltcs tho
words of tiuth and soberness. What
kind of a community and what class of
Kill readeis tho Sun "llbraiian" was
so frutuuatc as to have made the ac
quaintance of, and whom his article
so f-weeplngly "wiote down," has been
a puzzle over since tho hi Hole appeal

ti)lng to stilke n balance as against

To Wage Earners
and Others of
Moderate Income
Do not spend your money foolishly
because you have so little of It. but
save what you can from month to
month and Invest It In something that
will multiply many fold Tho mil
lionaires of this section were laboring
nun a generation ago and they pur
sued this course while most of their
comiades blew It all In. The pru
dent ones saw that fuel was a good
thing, that the world had to have
It. and they bought coal land, a little
at a time as they could spate It, and
It has made them llch, and their fami
lies live and will live In the greatest
comfort, while the descendants ot
their impiudent comrades are labor
ing as their fatheis did for day)
wagp.s.
Keep this object lesson In mind.
The oppoitunltles of that earlier time
were in coal, today greater opportuni
ties exist in oil. which Is fuel In a
moro concrete form and Is rapldlv
supplanting coal, because It Is easier
and cheaper to mine and handle, and
is, besides being a more economic
fuel for all latge consumers, profit
able for a hundred other uses. The
oil of California Is furnishing that
state with cheap fuel, for the lack of
which her piogress has- been woefully
retarded Tho entire Pacific coast
will consume oil as a fuel, so that
tho demand upon the oil fields of Cali
fornia Is unlimited California oil
lefineis will hold the markets of the
far Kast and of the west coabt of
South Ameilca. It Is plain to be seen
that the oil fields of California will
be the source of Incalculable wealth,
far beyond what the coal mines of
Pennsylvania have been In the past.
All troughtful men can see that the
thing to do now to make money is
to buy the shares of conservative, re
putably managed oil companies hav.
Ing large holdings of undoubted oil
lands secured at low prices, and only
reriulrlng development to become the
soui oo of enormous revenues for
shorfholders
The PACIPIC COAST AND TEXAS
OH COMPANY has In tho most Im
portant oil holds managers of ability
and Integrity and of the highest prae.
tlcal eiuallflcatlons for their business,
and tho shares of this company aie
today, without doubt, the best Invest,
nient obtainable. These shares would
be cheap at 40c, but are selling for
the time being at I!0c per shaie, to
piocure monev to bore the first wells.
The price Is sure to advance rapidly
to keep pace with tho developments
on tho company's lands and on ad
joining lands The market value of
the lands Is constantly advancing. Do
not delav making an Investment In

Tribune, to assist In r-OlnR this espense.
Here is an opportunity for some ambitious young people to
earn the best college education without a great amount of effort,
and it is an opportunity that may never be repeated. The Trib
une may find the returns much less than the expense and would
then be unable to again make such generous offers. Such a con
dition will be The Tribune's loss and the contestants' gain.
There are many young men, and young women, too, who
would be glad of an opportunity to "work their way through col
lege," in fact, the presidents of these institutions are deluged with
applications for chances of this kind. Here the work for an entire
course of four years can all be accomplished in three short months,
and an education that would cost in cash $1,000 is assured with
out further outlay. Parents should urge their boys and girls to
enter the contest and work (or one of the special rewards. One
of the eight is within the reach of everyone who really tries.
Send a letter to The Tribune for full particulars, including
handsomely illustrated booklet. Address,
