The spider has tremendous appe-

human competition. A scientist who
carefully noted spiders consumption
of food in "a hours concluded that if
the spider were built proportionately
to the human scale he would eat at
daybreak approximately small ALI,

Aldrich was born in the quaint old
town of Portsmouth, n. H., but went to
Louisiana to live when still a child He

pairing for college his father died, which
caused change in young Aldrich's
plans, and he entered the counting
room of an uncle in New York city. But
his literary bent" developed faster
than his capacity for business and at
the end of three years he set forth on
his literary career as MSS. reader for
New York publishing house. Later
he held editorial positions on the New
York Evening Mirror, Home Journal

An American Author on Whom For

Although 83 Years of Age He Look'

His Career as an Editor
and LitterateuF.

It IL . matter of regret to lovers OF
pure and undefiled English that so lit
tie new work comes from the pen OF
Thomas Bailey Aldrich in these later
days. His style is equaled by few.
writers of prose and poetry, and it Is
not because he has lost his hold On the
reading publicthat anything new from
his pen is rarely seen.
Although he is now in his sixty-third
year, having been born on November
II, 1886, his friends do not regard Al
drich as an old man nor does he look
Like one. To see him coming down the
steps of his handsome Mt. Vernon
street house on Beacon Hill in Boston
one would guess him to be nearer 50
than 63 years of age. Always careful in
every detail of dress, he presents q
marked contrast to the average liter
ary man." who is generally inclined to
carelessness in this respect. 1t is prob
ably true that Aldrich is the best
"groomed' writer in Boston, and it is
certainly true that few writer's in Bos-
ton or any other. city have the long
purse that the gods have vouchsafed to
Thomas Bailey Aldrich. When his life
long friend, Hon. Henry L. Pierce. the
multi-millionaire, died about two years
ago, he bequeathed Mr.. and Mrs. Al
drich the comfortable little fortune OF
100000 each, and to each of their twin
sons he willed a similar sum.

mand and his royalties must amount to
