Hook and Twaddle.-At n certain
printing Office, where aSworIs of the
celebrated humorist Theodore Hook
was being printed, there was an old
compositor who went by the nickname
of Twaddle.' In completing a sheet
Of one OF Mr.. Hooks novels, the cops
was given out in small takes" OF
portions, to each one Of which the
compositor's name was as usual ap-
pended. When the proof was sent to
the author, there appeared a line
drawn down the margin of certain
page with the word "Twaddle' at sthe
side. Mr.. Hook received his proof,
read it, and brought it back to the
Office with the remark that though he
was not above criticism, he did not
think the reader was quite the man
to make it,"

Pcck's Experience with q
Coal Stove.

We never had q coal stove around
the house until last Saturday.
Have always burned pine slabs and
pieces of our neighbours fence. They
burn well, too, but the fence got all
burned up, and the neighbor said
he wouldn't build new one, SO we
went down to JONES' and gotta coal
stove. It is called the. "Radiant
Home,n and any man that says we
didn't have radiant heme at our.
house for about four hours last Sat
urllay night is Republican and a
william. You see we didn't know
anything abont coal stoves. We
filled the Radiant Home about half
full of pine fence, and when the
stuff got well to going we filled the
artisan well with coal. 1t simmered
and sputtered about for five or ten
minutes and all went out, and we
put on All overcoat and n pair OF
buckskin mittens and ''went out
too," TO supper. We remarked, in
the course of tho frugal meal, that
Jones was a froad" for recon-
mending such a COMPOUNDED refrl-
geratOr to q man to get wa@m by.
After supper we took q piece of ice
and rubbed our hands warm, and
went in where that stove was, re-
solved to make. her draw and burn
il it took all the pine fence in. the
First Ward. Our better half threw
a quilt over her and shiveringly re-
marked that she never knew what
real solid comfort was until she got
a coal stove. Stung by the sarcasm
in her remark, we turned every.
dingus in the stove that was NOV
able, or looked hike it had anything
to do with draft, and pretty soon
the Radiant Home began to .heayc
up heat. 1t was not long before
she suffered like the new Silsby
steamer. Talk about your heat
In ten minutes that room was as
much worse than q Turkish bath as
Hades is hotter than Liverman's
ice-house. The perspiration fairly
fried out Of a tin water cooler in
the next room. We then opened,tEe
doors, and the snow began to melt
as far up Vine street as Hanscom9's
house, and people all round the
neighbotbood put on linen clothes.
And we couldn't stop the confo1nd
ed thing. We forgot what Jones
told us about the hampers, and she
just kept a billing. The only thing
we could do was to go to bed, and
leave the thing to burn the house
il it wanted to. We stood of with
a pole, and turned the damper every
way, and every turn she just sent
oat heat enough to roast an OK.
We went to bed, surprising that the
coal would eventually burn out, but
about twelve o'clock the whole
family had to get up and sit on the
fence. Finally a man came along
who had been brought Cup a'0eng
coal stoves, and he put a wet BLANK
ct over him and crept up to tie
stove and turned the proper dingus,
and she cooled off, and since that
time has been just as comfortable
as possible. If you buy u coal
stove you dwant to learn how to
engineer it, or you may get roast

WHAT JOHN E. OWENS THINKS.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. Q, 1874.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept 9, 1874
Mr.. John E. owens, IN conversation with your
correspondent, said Elf Shakespeare did not
write his dramas he did not write his sonnets
II ne wrote one he wrote the other. The Baconi.
ans admit that he ccmposed hts poems, and hence
they must OF necessity impair their own argu-
ments against the authenticity OF his plays. can
show you peculiar forms Of expression common to
both his poems and his plays which OF themselves
ought to su1cient to convince any one tnat they
we've both written by the same hand. The Baconi-
ans have, as far as am able to Judge, made q
great mistake in their acxnow ledgment tnat
cribed to him, for any student OF shakespeare can
readily point out to You analysis OF thought and
pecullarltes OF dlctlOn common and consistent
with both poems and plays.
WHAT MRS JOHN DREW THINKS.
"Have you talked with any one else on this sub
ject ?" inquired.
"Oh, yes,h responded Mr.. Owens, 1--WE see the
HERALD here at the Arch Street Theatre every
morning, and the present discussion has been iUod
ior US Tor several days past"
"What does MIS- John Drew think about 1t ?"
was my next question.
.'She is antl-BacOnian, body and SOUL Nothing
can shake the iaitn she has In the identity OF the
great dramatst, William Shakespeare. She says
the TACT that all his companions and associates
recognlZed him as the author OF oil that come out
dramas was never once questioned until hundreds
OF years after they were given to the world, Is sui
nciens proof to her that Shakespeare wrote them
and that he is worthy oil all the regard We now
pay TO him. She believes that had any mystery
been connected with their genulneness 1t would
ans have really not an inch of ground to stand
