noted canal is large lake which the

Reading Library to Write One Novel.
The amount of labor that goes to

Ell is rather deterrent to the writer
of fiction who is used to turning out
regularly two novels a year. It is so
much easier to make over again,
with a little imagination, the char
acters and incidents. that one has
picked up in the ordinary course of
life and travel. Thackeray some
where tells of the tremendous
amount of reading that went into
the caldron before 'Esmond' was
brewed, and little while ago an
aged librarian related his surprise at
the research the great novelist car
ried on month after month in his ac-
emulation Of historical details. A
whole. chapter could be written in
the time devoted to verifying a
detail of costume or the turn of an
antique phrase. Moreover, the his
torical novelist realizes that he is
taking this tremendous amount of
pains for a very few people; that

Following the decision of the U. S
Supreme Court, that pension examin-
ing surgeons were not government
officials, but simply agents to be hired
and discharged at will by the com
missioners Of pensions, Commissioner
Evans will not recognize those posi-

rules. Speaking OF the matter Com
missioner Evans said: Il cannot go

I shall not hesitate about removing
