FOLEYKIMEYCUR Makes Kidneys and Bladder Right THE REAL VALUE. Slow All LUteature In containeC In a Few Great Booka. Young people must every now and then hear it said or see it written that all the real value In literature can be put upon a pmall shelf-that is to say, the really Important part of all that is written Is contained in a very few good books, all the rest being either unImportant or difierent ways of say ing the same things that have been saId before. The statement, of course, Is not true If It be0 taken literally. There are certainly many hundreds, perhaps thousands, of books that con taiin origInal thoughts or experIences that are truly valu abie; but, generally speakIng, the best part of all that has been written Is to be found in a few volumes. To uniderstand how this is possible we must remember that near ly all rules are the same as other and simlher rules. In arIthmetic, for ex ample, the whole science consists of only four simple ways of treating num be. We can add, subtract, multiply and divide, and that is all we can do to numb~ers. The rest of the book -is only the working out of these four rules: thus all of the arithmetic could easily be put into a little page that one could carry in the vest pocket. All behavior, all right living, is also set forth In a fewv simpIle laws. These illustrations will show what is meant by saying that all literature is contain ed In a few great books. The Bible and the works of a few famous p~oets and essayIsts contain all human wvis dom, and these are within the reach of every purse.-St. Nicholns. Thnekeray and Dickeng. This Ia the way George IHenry Lewe. once characterized Thackeray and Dickens in the way of service to a friend: Dilckcns, he said, would not give you a farthing of money, but he would take no end of trouble for you. lie would spend a whole day, for In stance, in looking for the tuost suitable lodgings for you and would spare him self neither time nor fatigue. Thacke ray would take two hours' grumbling Indleelsion and hesitation in writing a two line testimonial, but he would put tie hand into his pocket and give you a handful of gold and bank notes If you wanted them. Bowlingt. Bowling is one of our games that origlnatedl in the middle ages. The ex act (late of its introduction is obscure, but It has been clearly tracedl to the thIrteenth century. The first bowling greens were mnade in England. In bad weather these could not he usedi to ad vantage, and this led to the construe. tion of covered bowling alleys. Hard Luck. Caller-I have, here several b)il1s whieh are long overdue. Ilarduppe (desper stely)---I am sorry to say that our cash ier is out today. Caller-Oh, well, it doesn't make much dlifference.
