Barrett's trouble, which is now, after several
months of treatment so serious as to demand
surgical operations began to show its effects
last season, and is the first illness that has
marred his career on the stage There have
been many conflicting stories about the early
life of Lawrence Barrett. He seems to have
identified himself with the stage very younp
since he appeared in a minor part at the age
of Is.
Three years later he played Sir Thomas
Clifford in 1.-THE Hunchback. at the Cham.
bers Street theatre, New York. As a youth
and young man Barrett was hard student.
and it is reported of him that while he was
earning his way in business pursuits he was
devoted to the drama, and was studying and
practicing the actors art. This was not
always serious work, for he sometimes MINI
licked people around him to the amusement of
his associates. Being one day caught in the

By what was said to him in way CT advice or

distinction, he resolved to be heard some

The keenest sting OF criticism that Barrett
has to recall was that given him by local

NHILDREN'S LITERATURE.
What ''St Nicholas has Done for Boys anl
Girls.

Victor Hugo calls this 1.-THE woman's century,"
and he might have added that it is the childrens
century as well, for never before in the worlds
history has so much thought been paid to chill
dren-their schools, their books, their pictures,
and their toys. Childhood, as we understand it,
is a recent discovery.
Up to the time Of the issue of the st. Nicholas
Magazine, seventeen years ago, literature and
children'S magazines were almost contradictory
terms, but the new periodical started out with
the idea that nothing was too good for children
the result has been Juvenile magazine genuine
with conscientious purpose,Ithe greatest wri,
engravers helping to beautify it,--and every
thing tuned to the keynote of youth.
1t has been the special aim of 81. Nicholas to
supplant unhealthy literature with stories of a
take fascinating bad literature out of boys
hands and give them in its place Mrs. Barbauld
and Peter Farley, or the work of writers who
think that any 'good-y" talk will do for children,
with the blood and sinew of real life in tread
ing that will waken them to closer observation
of the best things about them.
In the seventeen years of its life 81. Nicholas
also elevated the tone of contemporary chill
drens literature as well. Many of its stories,
like Mrs. Burnett's Little Lord Fauntleroy,"
have become classic. 1t is not too much to say
that almost every notable young peoples story
now produced in America first seeks the light in
the pages of that magazine.

A GREAT AMERICAN MAGAZINE.
The Success of "The Century and it's Plans
for 1891.

The Century Magazine is now so well known that
to tell of its past success seems almost an old
story. The N. Y. Tribune has said that it and it's
by the same house, "are read by every one per-
son in thirty of the country's population, and
large editions of both are sent beyond the seas.
1t is an interesting fact that few years ago it
was found that seven thousand copies of Ine
Century went to Scotland, quite respectable
edition in itself. The question in England is no
longer "Who reads an American bookY' but
"Who does not see the American magazines? p
A few years ago The Century about doubled its
circulation with the famous War Papers, by Cen
later with the Lincoln History and Kennan's
thrilling articles on the Siberian Exile System.
One great feature of 1891 is to be
1.-THE GOLD HUNTERS OF CALIFORNIA"
describing that remarkable movement to the
gold fields in 49, in series of richly illustrated
articles writte By survivors, including the nara
tives of men who went to California by the differ
ent routes, accounts of the gold discoveries, life
in the mines, the work OF the vigilance commit
tees by the chairman of the cOmmittees) etc, etc.
General Fremont's last writing was done for this
series. In November appears the opening arti-
n ,s RdnLiegs IN isI nv W Generai hid

lean families who had some relative or friend
among 1.-The Argonauts of 40" will be interested
in these papers.
MANY OTHER GOOD THINGS ARE COMING
the narrative of an Americans travels through
that unknown land Tibet Qor zoo miles over
ground never before trod by white mani; the
experiences of escaping War Prisoners; Ameri-
can Newspapers described by WeIl-kn0Wn Jour-
nalists; accounts of the great Indian Fighters,
Custer and others personal anecdotes of Lin
coin, by his private secretaries; 1.-The Faith Doc
tori a novel by Edward Eggleston, with won
derfully rich programme of NOVELTIES and
stories by most of the leading writers, ETC., etc.
1t is also announced that The Century has pur-
chased the right to print, before its appearance
in France or any other country, extracts from
advance sheets of the famous Talleyrand Me-
moirs. which have been secretly preserved for
half a century-to be first given to the world
through the pages of an American magazine. All
this personal history of Talleyrand- greatest of
intriguers and diplomats.
The November Century begins the volume, and
new subscribers should commence with that
issue. The subscription price ($4.0O may be re-
mitted directly to the publishers, The Century

may be purchased of any newsdealer. The pub
