The truth is-whisper It not-that the
| the public ia 10 blame in this matter, The
pnblic has acquired taste for acids and
spices. and tho public palate refuses to rel
ish the inslpn food which does not contain
them. The affairs Of the kitchen arc LEFT to
the cooks, but the dishcs must he served ac-
cordlng TO the season and seasoned accord
Ing to the appetite. Literary appetite Ia
dulled and deadened; consequently literary
fcasts must be more highly splced. Literary
caterers must be aromatic In their creations
and selections.
In other words the public taste has c7ndn.
ally, but surely, experienced change in It's
love and patronage Of Atenry merits. There
may have been time when the publisher
could have realized large fortune from
