1t is dangerous for the hero Of novel TO be
too forlorn. and still more dangerous for him to
be aware Of his parlous state. There are few
things more despcable than self pity. The hero
of Mr.. Fords novel confirms this. He Is the
supposititious narrator OF the story, and in each
chapter he wakes little more maudlin over
his sufferngs. Discovering that his father had
embczzed money from the girl he loves. and
being, for that reason. repulsed by her, he re-
solves to pay back the debt. On finding no other
method profitable. he hires himself to an
editor, writing all the attcrs editorials for HIM.

Votion plain through his own words than in
cnIng even so pretty a fragment as that given
above.
III Is not for it's posthumous poetry in short
'hpt this memoir will be valued. But for its
vivid portraiture Of noble man Of genius for
ts mnumerable anecdotes, for the sayings and
Writings which 1t quotes from half the celeb
rites OF the Victorian era, 1t will be valued be-
yonds any book Of biography that has appeared
in years. 1t would be interesting to pursue
further the lines Of investigation which il offers:
TO follow the evolution of the poets greatest
works; to survey his friendships in detail to
snow how chivalrous, how full Of dignity was
his intercourse with the Queen and her family
TO show how secure he must always be from
adverse criticism In the matter of the peerage
which he accepted.
He refused it when Mr. Gladstone offered it to
MIN In 1913, and when. In the following year
Disraeh again made it known to him that the
queen desired him to accept a baronetcy he re-
fused it once more. Ten years later Mr.. Glad
stone again returned to the charge. Being on
board the Pembroke Castle with the poet one
day he preached the subject. He said that
paronetcy was not the same honor as in Sir
J" alter SCOTS day, that he had always thought
baronctcy an inadequate honor for my father
My father shook his head and said that
ne felt nervous about it, and did not want to
alter his plain Mr.; that the pcerage might
have been good to him twenty years ago, when
ne could have spoken in the House Of Lords
But Tcnnyson had two things to reckon with
lie naturally valued distinction which he
could pass on to his son. and even more than
this. h" had profound loyalty TO the Queen.

If you have passed our store
at night during the past week,
you have noticed lights burn
ing and the force of clerks al
work opening boxes and cases
and marking up goods. The
customers took all of the time
the clerks had during the day,
and the only opportunity we
have had to get on with the
work, was at night.
Lots Of novelties have been
brought by recent vessels from
the Coast and we are now
ready for our spring campaign.
The beauty of our novelties
lies in their usefulness; there's
no wear out to them and each
one fills a want. The Primus
oil stove is the latest good thing
to reach here, and it is destined
to revolutionize the cooking in
dustry. 1t burns nothing but
kerosene oil and on the prinei-
pie of gasoline but without the
danger. The Primus will boil
water in three minutes.
Manns green bone cutter is

Frequent light rains such as
we are having every day or
two has a great effect upon
the grass and you can almost
see it grow. The green lawns
of Honolulu are in strange
contrast with the white, snow
robed gardens Of Vancouver
at this time of year, but to
have the lawn in Honolulu
always beautiful it must be
attended to.
LAWN MOWERS,
GARDEN HOSE,
RAKES and HOES,
SHEARS and SPHINX
LERS,
Are among the things need
ed in every dwelling where
there is a suspicion Of lawn
around it. If the quality of
such things is good they will
not have to be renewed as
often as when cheap ones are
bought. We import our stock
of garden tools from manufac-
turers in England whose re-
putation for quality of goods
produced extends to the four
corners of the earth and the
price is right.
