The Effects of Novel Reading

WHEN the mind has been surfeited with fiction, it is no longer capable of being interested in the affairs of nations. Mental dyspepsia has supervened after a continuous course of novel reading, and the mind loses its capacity to digest great subjects.—Col. G. C. Kniffin, in address at dedication of Takoma Park Library.
