Butting aside considerations of bibliology, which an; of interest to hut few people, it is reasonable to say that one's book-buying should lie, after the poets mul tlm das-icsof tlm language are fairly represented on one's shelves, confined to tlm real author of the time to the men ami women who are saying something new, or saying something old in such a way as to make it taku a neiv hold on jieoples thoughts. Read enough of the reviews and of lwsik news to know what is really significant in the hooks that are appearing, and buy along those lines us fast as you an; aide to read thoughtfully the hooks you luiy.

E. Quincy. It is not yet ten years since first that expressive little nionosyllaldi: crank wrenched its way into tin; language. Now it is sanctioned liy the Atlantic Monthly and tourists on tlm other side of the Atlantic Ocean begin to use it in literature with apologetic quotations, or explanatory reference to tho American origin of the word. But as the fa: of tho snob ls-rainc the word, so the ali-iiervad-iug and moiiiiiiieutul fact of the crank in tlm world gives tlm word which defines him a right to recognition.

Mr. Quincy di-lines cranks: They mine, 1m says, from all classes, and "may be roughly defined as persons who have not tlm instinct of tln-ir order. If this Im rough detinitieii where shall wu lind delicacy and prcci-ioij, and tlm touch liieli da-lights'.

Thu critical spectator might point out defects, but wu do not imagine that tlirso defects have been ignored by the otli-cers of tim battalion, hut exist rather because it takes mure than five days to give to a recruit the set up and familiarity with hi arms and jMisition that make him drift out of notice into the mass of tho trained inon. Tiie recruit element of the battalion is not very Ktrong, but it is only candor to say that it show in little things that cateli the eye, such a a gunner uncertain about his step, or a man handling a musket without living sure he is doing right. These arc little blemishes that service will nth out, anil the officers are doing all they ean to lick into shape tho cub-recruit, working personally to show how this or that should he dune. In this work the recruits have thu example and association of a goodly number of memlx-rs of thu battalion who liavo Nerved in the cadets ami other good organizations.

Having been tempted the other day to buy an excellent old edition of Rousseau's work which was going very cheap, and having resisted the temptation on ground which were satisfactory the Listener was led to meditate a little on the philosophy of buying tiookx.

It 00. curreil to him at the time that possibly the sulv ject had been meditated on ltefore. hut he boldly proceeded just tlio same. The point of bis meditation was this Unlesa one i a book collector, an amateur of editions (and if one sets out to collect book he must needs bo sure of living a thousand years if bo desires to do it well), there i little use of buying authors out of ones own century, except as to the great masters, like Shak-sneare, and tho indispensable classics. Take an author like Rousseau, for instance Jean Jacques wa great, and lie helped, with a handful of others, to remake the world to fashion it over again.

But eer this time tho essential part of Jean Jacques has been imbedded in the thought of the time. It lias become a part of everybody. One doe not take tip his daily newspajier, or even his weekly Independent or Christian Register, without reading Kuusscan, though the people who write those papers may never have read a wonl of him directly. AVliat is the ue, then, of buying his books? They have done tlieir work.
