the tendency has been toward a higher
class of work in these valentine offerings
and this seasons productions are the eli
max of these efforts.
No better illustration of this can be
asked than the cheap valentines which
are destined to take the place of the hor-
rible red, blue and green affairs that have
been familiar objects for a quarter of a
century or more. Instead of their abusive
subscriptions in alleged verse, and the still
more abusive illustrations, there will be
seen a line of what are technically known
as COMICS" in which wit takes the place
of vulgarlty. They are pretty despite the
low price at which they sell, and their sar-
casm is SO pleasant and good natured that
even the most thin skinned can take no
offenSe.

trations of the wave OF realism that has
been sweeping over the country of late
They are printed in gilt or silver letters on
heavy cruSted cardboard about four inches
square, and are calculated to gladden. the
heart of any follower of the Howells

On Park street bangs an epistolary curios,
fly which is sure to attract the atten-
ton of all who have occasion to visit the
sanctum of this well known publishing
house. 1t is letter written by the princi-
pal OF school in a Pennsylvania town to
Nathaniel Hawthorne, and is dated Octo-
Der, 1887.
The teacher begins by trying to worm
himself in Mr.. Hawthorne's good graces
by telling him how highly his works are
considered by his neighbors, and he winds
up by asking a donation of book or two
for the school library.
ut seems very strange" remarked vis-
itor to the Office a few days ago, that a
school teacher should not have heard Of
the novelist's death twenty-three years
after his decease."
THAT is not the strangest feature of the
matter" replied a member of the firm, to
whom the remark was addressed. 1.-THE
letter was directed TO Mr.. Hawthorne at
Salem, and after remaining unclaimed in
the postoffice there for the usual time it
was sent to US with the request to for
