This is not We view of Canon Lylliee
ton, who sees great danger in We pre-
sent vest supply of ephemeral and tri-
vial literature. He tis troubled chiefly
about the . rising generation. Without
expecting school boys and girls to etude.
"stiff" books in leisure 110111%, and de-
claring thae.a little nonsense is a god
thing occasionally, he yet deplores the
"rubbish -reading habit" welch so ninny
form in their youth. Adults, even if
they read much trash, are not mentally
affected by it, and many pass on to bet-
ter things, but with young people the
case is different, and it is of the anion
importance to cultivate in them a taste
for the higher 101'111S of literature.
Mr. Whitney is vehement and pessi-
mistic. He arraigns the "grown ups"
for their reading habits and virtually
declares that popular education has been
a failure so far as appreciation of liter-
ature is concerned. To quote:
When the famous education act was
paseed the unforeseen happened, as el -
ways happens after the thoughtless work
of Sanguine legislators. The vision of a
contented, intelligent people, bent upon
learning and eager for the diftusion of
useful knowledge, was not realized.
We found instead a restless, nervous
mob, which could not keep its attention
fixed for more than two minutes at a
time, and to whose tastes a thoustuel
ingenious persons were ready to pander.
And then, strangest episode of an, the
printekstuff, contrived tor the Ignorant,
instantly captivated those who should
have known better. The leveling pro-
cess went en, sure enough, but, as is
usual with leveling processes, in a
downward, not an upward, direction.
One • would infer from thls indictment
that few good books were being brought
out; that there was practically no de-
mand for them, and that men were
snore ignorant and dense and incapable
of correct thinking than they ever were
in the days of general illiteracy. Does
anyone really believe this to be the situ-
ation? Who reads the thousands of
meritorious books published each year?
For whose benefit are the numerous
cheap editions ref the classics put on the
market? What is the quality of the con.
temponary newspapers and magazines?
A veteran publisher was recently
quoted as saying that the reading taste
, of the people indteated a marked he
crease and heightening of the intellec-
tual life; that there was a growing rep.
predation of good poetry; that book re-
ndews in leading papers were more gen-
•,. :Arany,. consulted than ever, and that
r 1 —.business men and -women were more
Auld more demanding good literature
And discardlng badly written and Info
• ler work -even if • interesting and read-
." able. This testimony should gtve the
extreme pessimists a ray of hope. Good
reading is not encouraged by sweeping
statements and depressing pictures.

A missionary who recently returned
from South America discovered on We
route to Orurautotagosta a tribe of fet-
ish redskins worsbipping Manacle as a
god. Last year, when the &inlet
threatened their diarvest, they offered
up prayers to theie usual idols, but all
to no avail. Their chine having seen

illustrated German paper, risked the far-

which request wile willingly agreed to,
Thereupon the Indexes brought the plc -
tura he great procession to their temple,
and, strange to say, a welcome rale
watered the lands of the tribe. Slue
that time the deity of the el -medlar,
whom the Indiens call timbarke, is
firmly established, and alt kinds a rep-
tiles are offered up to him in sacrifice.
