Are Scott and Dickens obsolet.q

Who reads Scott and Dickens now9
To that question what is the true an
swer? The implied answer of course is
that no one reads them or that their
readers are getting yearly fewer. 1t
may be said at once, and it may be said
fatty, that it is not the case. They are
not only still read by many people, but
they are read by more people today than
they ever were before. This fact is SUBJ
stantiated by the copies of their works
that are sold; indeed it stares us in the
face at every railway book store.
Scott and Dickens, if measured by the
number of their readers, are growing in
popularity, not declining. should GER
tainly say that, so far as my own OBJ
servation can inform me, no two writers
are more universally familiar at this mo-
ment than Scott and Dickens. The old
have read them; the young are reading
them, nor need any one doubt the fact
because they are not discussed like now
elties.-W. H. Mallock in Forum.
