ROOSEVELT'S PIGSKIX LIBRARY.
THE establishing of the new
Marshfield public library soon
to bo opened gives additional
interest to the consideration of
Roosevelt's pigskin library, so-called
because the books were bound In
pigskin. He has just been writing
about this library, consisting of near
ly 100 books, and it is not only in
teresting but helpful to know on
what meat his mind fed while his
stomach was feasting on broiled ante
lope. The Bible, of course, and such
standard authors as Bacon, Cnrlyle,
Dante, Homer and Shapespeare were
read. But there was lighter reading,
too, as "Alice in Wonderland," "Tar
tarln of Tarascon" and "The Soul's
Inheritance."
Such variety is suggestive. Tho
blending of lighter and of more solid
literaturo shows appreciation of the
mind's need for variety in its intellec
tual diet. The man who reads only
the great books, the classics of all
nges, becomes heavy; but the woman
who reads only "the best sellers" be
comes a mental featherweight, If she
does not, indeed, lose her mind.
Tho breadth and the variety of
Mr. Roosevelt's reading are among
the reasons for his success In life.
Ho touches life through literature at
a thousand points, aud through these
he comes into-sympathetic touch with
a hundred sorts and conditions of
men. From contemporary novels he
has reached such an understanding
of real people on Kansas ranches and
In Chicngo stockyards as ho could
havo gained from no other source;
and from history, as Parkman's ac
' count of the French In America, ho
has acquired part of tho political
sagacity that qualified him to cope
with present-day problems of states
manship. If this man of action craves the In
tellectual lifo so keenly that he lugs
a library into African, wilds; If he
hungers so far for literature that ho
reads bcsldo tho trophies of his rlflo,
thon thero Is no excuse for men of
business and homo-making mothers
assorting that they havo no time to
read. Whero thoro's a will, there's
a way. If wo really wish to read, wo
will read.
5,0 M, Berthelo , member of the ln
'iic of France, made fats from the
t j-Unal elements. Fi cher took the
iiiue elements, hdrcgen, oxygen and
carbon, and from them produced su
;,ar exactly like that made from su
gar beets.
Berthelot said, before he died, that
the 'test tube would some day sup
plant tho wheat stalk, and' bread,
like indigo, be made from factories
with large laboratories. Victor Mayer,
tho celebrated German chemist, ex
pressed the belief that in the near
future science will be able to teach
us' how to make the fiber of wood
the source of human food.
Today man accepts as" possible al
most any prediction of what we shall
be able to do. What were only fan
ciful dreams a few, years ago have
become realities on every side. Car
riages do run without horses, tho
human voice actually travels hun
dreds of miles without any connec
tion, and men do fly without wings.
What modern civilization has lost
as compared to civilization of the an
cients in the way of art and culture
It seems to bo gaining in materialis
tic things.

DOWN THE VALLEY.

There isn't a rose, where the world's
roses be,
That my dim eyes, a dreamin', in
sunshine can see;
There isn't a daisy that ever I mark
As I hobble away In the Dark In the
Dark!
Life Is a -readtn' this old lesson still;
"Down in the valley, from up on the
hill!"
II.
"Down in the valley!" But 'still it's
the way
Tho world's been goin' since God
made the day!
But we that are feelln' the dark shad

Must fear not the valley, who once
knew the hill!
"Down in the" valley!" old travelers
wo go;
Hide us In daisies, an' shroud us in
snow!
