PEN-PoRTRAIT OF OUIDA.-my attention was
attracted by woman some forty years of age,
who was gorgeously attircd and seemed in her
manner to feel that she was somebody and anxi-
GUS to impress others with that fact. She was
tall well set up, with Engand's limestone forma :.
ton in the way of bones, well covered wlts'
adipose rather coarse in tissue, garnished witfs
light blue eyes and an abundance of yellow hair
There was something vulgar in this woman's ap
pearance when quiet and it became oppressive
when she moved, and that was nearly all the
time She seemed to court observation ana 81 the
same time dessise it. l was not surprised when
a friend tole me that this bumptious person was
none other than Ouda, the well-known novelist

Go IN FOR L1rERATURE.-Them most poru-
lar novelist alive does not realize per "n-
mum what is every year pocketed by Sec
ond.rate barrister or physician in moder-
ate practice. His term of prosperity is also
shorter, for the gift of imagination fails Is
long before thosa talents which are sufficient
for ordinary intellectual toll. And yet noil-
ing is more common than to hear otherwise
sensible people talk of the large incomes
made by popular writers Trollope and
Scott were exceptionally quick workers. hut
there are few men who can write three
volume novel worth reading under nine
months in the same time popular printer
can produce at least pictures, for each of
which he gets as large sum as the popular
writer for his entire book. Nor does his
work take out of the artist as it does out of
the author Indeed, if u man looks for
wealth the profession of literature is the
