''The actual cost to the manufacturer of pro-

would seem to give a pretty good margin for

THE HOST RESPONSIBLE.
"But you were speaking Of the duration of
the after-dinner interval?"
''Yes; and was going to say that the men
generally cannot be justly blamed for prolong-
ing it over-much, since the host alone is re-
sponsible in such cases. For he il the one
who determines when the interval shall come
to an end. As soon as he thinks the time has
arrived for joining the ladies he simply sug-
gests it and action on the motion is promptly
taken. The host is always the center of the con-
versation during the smoking period and il he
puts down the remainder Of his cigar or cigar

that It is very good Of them to wait 90 long with

Authors and Critics at Odds.

The critics-those gentlemen who sit In
judgment on the productions of authors
have been of late impaled by the pens of
two well known writers-one British and
one American. "All current criticism"
says the first, " is falsely principled and
conditioned in evil but if anonymous it
is usually Savage and dishonest The
other asserts in satirical vein, 1.-THE critic
can really produce good work on subjects
of little or no Importance. but he should
not NEEDLE with fiction of a high order. 1"
Says The London News: 1T is impossible
to avoid the suspicion that both these au
thors, though old enough to know better,
have yielded to the temptation of reading
some unfavorable reviews of their own
books, and they are naturally incensed
that the mask of the anonymous
prevents them from identifying the
writers and tearing them limb from
limb. One critic has gone for them
and shown himself also to be master of
language Another has confined himself
to satire. The most amusing sentence he
has written is, however, where the drollery
Is Undersigned. You say he writes, that
you authors have never profited by our OBJ
servations. Perhaps not. Put there are
other people to be considered in this mat
ter. An author may be incorrigible, but
the public taste may be corrected An in

The Sudden Summons That Came TO
Judge Noyes, of Ohio.
1t was just after the close of court at
Cincinnati the other day that Judge Ed
ward Follansbee Noyes met friend and
condoled with him on the loss of one they
both loved as a brother Said the judge:
1.-THE ways of Providence are mysterious
and past our finding out. We must abide
by them. From them there is no appeal
But it does sometimes seem that death al
ways takes those we learn by contact to
value and love the most highly"
Not five minutes later Judge Noyes fell
a corpse upon the street, stricken down by
apoplexy at the age of So. He was native
of East Haverhill Mass. and graduate of
Dartmouth. In 1858 he began the practice
of law at Cincinnati. When the civil war
began he abandoned the Office for the field,
