The Love
BY SABA M
"When civilization on her luminous
wlngB" sweeps over a country she
brings many blessings, ano aibu many
curses in her wake.
The chief blessing, thc one that had
brought more pleasure aud solace to
the human race is literature. Htr
rcli says "Literature exists to lighten
the burden of men's live? to make
them for a short while forget their
sorrows, and their sins, their silenc
ed hearts, their disappointed hopes,
their grim futures."
Think ot tlie magic that Ilea be
tween the covers of a book. Steeped
in weariness, or oppressed by care,
you turn to your books, selecting one,
you drop into a chair, and in a few
minutes you are lost to the worid,
care and weariness vanish, yqu are
no longer yourself, you are not even
conscious of turning tho pages. In
tropic lands you aro w?lking across
the white sand, and feel the beat
scorch your checks, you stand be
neath the stately palms, and hear
the whisper of the leaves, you watch
the restless waves as they uncurl
murmuring at your feet, and feel the
land breeze as lt drifts by, sweet with
the strange perfumes of unknown
flowers. Or you are in the trackless
waste of tho far .North, you stride
in snow shoes, the snow crunching
und?T your feet, the flying particles
stinging your face, you feel the exhil
arating swing of your body, the bit
ing freshness of the cold pure air.
. One lias a vast city for those'un
fortunate people who do not care for
books, those who look upon reading
as a waBte of time, and who considers
one that prefers an hour with a trf Sl
ured book to other enjoyment, as a
kind of mild lunatic. How much
they lose they do not know, and can
not Imagine. Gladstone wrote to a
friend "Books are a delightful society.
If you go into a room and find it full
of books-even without taking them
from their shelves, they seem to
speak to you, to bid you welcome,
they seem to toll you that they have
got something Inside their covers, that
will be g od for you, and that they
are willing and desirous to impart
to you. Value them much."
It Is passing strange how few peo
ple really care to read, they skim
through few popular novels, glance
over the days paper, and that is all.
Somo do not even do that. Many
families aro without a magazine of
any kind. It is all the more amaz
ing, as this "is the UKO of books'",
thousands pour from the press yearly,
good, bad, and indifferent. But there
are always books and magazines
within reach of most people, and a
book must be noor indeed that lias
not Borne thought that imparts knowl
edge or gives pleasure. In walk
ing over an arid piece of land, a
gleam in the dry dust catches your'
eye, you stoop and pick up a crys
tal, a tiny cube, flawless, shining like
a jewel in the desert. So in many
books, we pick a flower here and a
(gem where we' expected a pebble,
something to treasure and remember.
We /eel a positive affection for
some authors, what happy evenings
they have given us. How many lone
ly lives \aO world over they have
cheered. "We should reverence
books. Consider a message to us
from human souls whom we never
saw, who lived thousands of miles
away, and yet In these little sheets
of paper speak to us, teach ds, com
fort us."
Think of the happiness of the long
winter evenings, with a stormy night
outside, the wind vollying around the
house, the rain pounding on the roof,
inside, close . curtained windows,
cheerful Are snapping and cracking
most companionably, your dog
stretched on the rug, e comfortable

big chair, lamp properly adjusted,
and a new book, or a much loved old
one.
Goldsmith says "There is un
speakable pleasure attending the lifo
of a voluntary student. The first
time I read an excellent book, it ls
to me just as if I had gained a nev/
friend. When I read a book I have
persusod before, it resembles the
meeting au old one..'
The reading of poetry seems parti
cularly out of date with thc general
reader, which is much to be deplored,
?is they miss so much that is beauti
ful.
Take this exquisite poem by Eric
Mackey "The Waking of the Lark,"
or which only a verse or two can be
given.
Oh! hush! Oh! hush! how wild a
gush of rapture in the distance,
A roll of rhymes, a toli of chimes, a
cry for lov?ea assistance;
A sound that wells from happy
throats,
A flood of song where beauty floats,
A?1 where our thoughts, like golden
boats, do run to cross a river.
This ls the advent of the lark-the
priest in gray apparel.
Who doth prepare to trill In air, his
sinless summer carol;
This ls the prelude to the lay ,
The birds did sig In Caesar's day.
And will again, for aye and aye, in
praise of God"s creation.
O dainty thing,' on wonders wing, by
life and love slated,
Oh sing alound from clout to cloud,
till day be consecrated:
Till (from the gateways of the morn,
The sun, with all his light unshorn.
His robes of darkness round him
torn, doth scale the lotty heavens.
One fairly sees the little "priest in
gray apparel" winging h!s way to the
gateways of the morn, and hear the
silver "flood of son floating from thc
tiny throat.
Some lines e?sfrance one, lingering
in our minds, like some bewitching
strain of music. In George Merediths
"Modern Love" the sonnest beginning.
"He saw the swallows gathering in
the sky" and ending.
"And still I see across the twilight
wave'
neath her wings,"
The swan sall with her young be
neath her wings," is an inspiration ic
the art of writing. So many favorite
quotations tremble on the point of tho
pen, so many exquisite thoughtr. from
verse and prose throng ones memory,
so many captivating bits from the en
chanted, realm of book lore*, thai one
could fill endless pages, but I will on
ly add thc refrain poem, that haunt
ing poem of Kipling's "The Road to
Mandalay" which Charles Frances
Adams says is instinct with "thc eter
nal voice of human regrets."
.iFor tho- -wind is in -th? -palm-trees,
and the temple bells they say."
Come" you back to Mandalay
Where the old flotilla lay :
For tho temple bells are calling and
ita there that I would be
Ry the old Mou) minc Porgo da, look
ing lazy at thc sea,
On the Road to Mandalay
Where the old flotilla lay
With our sick boneath the awning
When we went to Mandalay
On the road to Mandalay
\V7uere the flying fishes play.
At the dawn como sup like thunder
