Court House, and attempted to take
Dolby from the officers. While bring

These English ANIMALS always con-
tanned prefaces calling attention TO the
excellence of the particular volume in
question, and more often than not dis
crediting rival publications of the same
sort. AS the rival editor had to wait &
whole year before printing a reply in
his next volume, it gave him a good
chance to nurse his wrath and get back
at.his enemy with increased severity.
The reissue of THE Literary Souve-
mir" in Philadelphia, and its success in
America at once started a crop of
American imitators. The first of these
appears to have been "The Casket,'
published by S. c. Atkinson, of Phila-
delphia, and generally known as "At-
kinson's Casket." The initial volume
CAME out in 1926, and its publication
was continued until fS3s. Carey and
Hart, of the same city. started 1.-THE
Gift" in 1886, and this probably ran out
1.-THE Casket," as it was published in
handsomer style, and edited by one Of
the literary swells of the day, Miss
Eliza Leslie, author of Pencil
Sketches" and other half-forgotten
books
The most important and the longest
continued of the American ANNALS
was 1.-THE Token, Christmas and New
Years Present." first published in Bos-
ton by S. G. Goodrich in 1928, and ed
tied by n. P. Willis. It's publication
continued almost without break until
1s43, when the improvement and ex-
pansion OF American magazines occu-
pied the services of the leading Ameri-
can writers SO exclusively that the
standard of even the best ANIMALS was
lowered and they soon fell into disre-
pute and came to an end. Among the
most constant contributors to these
snnuals were Mrs. Lydia Huntley ST.
Courtney, Miss Sedgwick, Miss Hannah
Flsgg Could, together with Mss Leslie
and Mr.. Willis. In later numbers Of
The Token" there were contributions
BY Longfellow, Lowell, Holmes,
Frances Sargent osgood, James T.

prominent authors of the day, but the

cal tables, selected or original con-
tributions from distinguished authors
were printed. In this way Schiller's
History of the Thirty Years War"
was printed piecemeal in German al
manac.
English publishers took up the idea
about 1920. The annual gift books
first published in England were mostly
Of a Juvenile character. The earliest
annual for adult readers was, as far
as can discover, THE Literary Sou
nance" edited by Alaric A. Watts,
the first volume of which was pub
Gshed by Longmans, Green d Co,
in 1925. 1t contained original contri-
buttons in prose and verse by leading
English authors and was Illus
trated by steel engravings from
paintings by members OF the Roy
al academy. THE Literary Sou
venir'' was success and the annual
volumes appeared for a number of
years Editions were imported to
America, where Thomas Wardle. of
Philadelphia, became the publisher.
The Souvenirs success naturally
started a crop of rival ANNALS"
1.-The Janus" appeared at Edinburg in
1926, and in 1928 THE Bijou" was pub
lished at London under the editorship
of William Pickering the publisher
Barry Cornwall, James Montgomery,

early volumes of the 'Bijou," which
was the most serious rival of the

1.-THE Iris" edited by Rev. Thomas
Dale; "The Winters Wreath" The

careful attention was paid to preparing
the illustrations for these volumes,
which were usually steel engravings
from paintings or designs by leading
British artists. A great impulse was
thus given to the art of steel engrsv-

tethered by long rope to log of
wood, was munching fresh dai.6es and
buttercups-
On came the naval reserve, bearing
down on the heifer in beautiful order.
When about one hundred feet away
the heifer raised her head and looked
at the array of white suits and glitter
ing arms coming toward her. First her
delicate ears moved forward, then there
was a defiant shake of the head and
distention of the nostrils, followed by
an elevation of the tail until 1t assumed
a position on line with her spine, the
end waving like flag of warning.
Then, lowering her horns to fighting
position, the heifer, with a loud and
angry below, came toward the young
navy men. Ensign Goodridge saw her
coming at about the time that the men
on line with the heifer began to WAIVER
He called halt, and his men came to a
standstill at the same moment that the
heifer was brought up at the end of her
rope only four feet away.
The young Jersey was game. and for
a moment stood watching the reserves,
paving the earth and shaking her
sharp horns at them Then, with
bound, she came on again, dragging
the log of wood and prepared to do bat
tie. "Backstep," came the order from
Ensign Goodridge, and baekstep his
men did in lively order, soon getting
out of range of the heifcr's horns. AS
soon as order was brought about in the
ranks the naval reserve were marched
into the city, leaving the pretty two
year-old Jersey to enjoy her daisies and
buttercups unmolested.

MISS LESLIE, EDITION. OF THE GIFT
is one which yon wish to pre-
serve intact, in his presence. A CLEAN
shoots through his eyes, and, Willie
nillhe, the stamp must come off the
envelope. Elderly people are the espe-
cial prey of the stamp fiend, who. if he
is Solomon among his kind, gradually
works up their interest in postage
stamps and his particular collection,
until they Of tf,eir own accord offer to
let him ransack their correspondence
of thirty or forty years ago for rare
stamps.
Your autograph collector is quieter
and more stealthy in his methods. In
the language of the vernacular, he
knows better than to hunt ducks with
a brass band. Every known postage
stamp which can be purchased, some
of them being sorare as never to be in
the market, has its catalogue price.
With autographs it is different, deal
ers often being ignorant of the value
Of letters and manuscripts which get
into their hands. Within two months
New York autograph dealer has sold
to Boston Institution a document in
the handwriting of Cows. Winthrop and
Dudley for seven or eight dollars, for
which almost any collector of histori-
cal documents who understood its sig
nifcance would pay at least five hun
bred. It is believed to be the original
manuscript of the first piece of print
ing done within the boundaries of the
United States somewhere about 1910.
Probably there are not half dozen
people in the country who would have
realized its value by casual examina-
ton, and the dealer who sold it, and
the many autograph collectors who re-
fused to buy it because it had no sig
nature, need not feel specially morti-
fed at their lack of knowledge. 1 can
say this with ell the more sincerity,
having myself once declined to buy If
at somewhat higher price, because Of
this very absence of signatures.
But it is N the province of book col
lecting that the keenest rivalry takes
place Some book collectors have one
