Tennyson and Sightseers.

Though Farringford, in Freshwater, was
Tennyson's favorite home, Aldworth, in
Haslemere, became by force of circum-
stances his summer residence-circum-
stances meaning in this case tourists and
Saturday to Monday cheap trippers. Ten
nyson used to say that he was literally
driven from the Isle of Wight by the sum-
mer visitors. Not content with invading
the demesne of Farringford, these enthusi-
astic but not considerable sightseers would
dog the steps of the object of their admira-
ton whenever he took his walks abroad
Twenty years ago he purchased the place
at Aldworth, and made it his summer re-
treat. The house was designed by James
Knowles, who, besides acquiring celebrity
as the editor of The Ninteenth Century Re
view, is a professional architect.
Every year in May, since 1872, Tennyson
has gone to Aldworth, returning to Fresh
water in October, when the trippers cease
from troubling and the AIRY is at rest.
Tennyson had acquired an aversion to
summer holiday mortals that was almost
morbid in its intensity. Perhaps this grew
by what it fed on, perhaps part of tia
small part of twas affectation, for Ten
nyson was hero worshiper, and, as far as
himself was concerned, was not Indifferent
to the worlds applause. - Cor. Boston

gagged In business pursuits here under the
name derived from his father The name
was an honest one. but not particularly
euphonious, and its bearer found. after
much energetic toll in several fields Of in
dustry, that it was barren Of talismanic in
duence In business. Although a man Of
dne presence, good manners, industrious
habits and personal honesty, this gentle
man was unable to win success. He tried
venture after venture, with fair prospects
In each case at the outset, but failure came
with disheartening promptness. His pecu-
liar name on business card or aUpended
TO letter never seemed to have any weight
In business circles.
After great many vicissitudes he re-
luctantly came to the conclusion that It
was his name which brought him bad
luck. He resolved to try the effect OF a
change, and with the permission OF the
legislature he simply reversed his name.
For the sake Of illustration, supposing it
was Abel Smith, he obtained the legal
right to change it to Smith Abel. The
effect of the change was magical. The
hitherto elusive success wooed the new
name assiduously. Enterprises that had
fallen fiat before became popular and pros
porous. Old debts were speedily paid and
new bank account grew to very healthy
proportions The gentleman grew rich
steadily. and his name is now on the list of
the solid men of New York.-New York
