HIS FIRST RECOGNITION.
The Turning Point In the Career of
Nathaniel Hawthorne.

The first reading of "The Scarlet
Letter" has been told in T. w. Hig-
ginson's book of essays, Contempt
rares." The reading was given to
the authors dearest critic his wife
During the entire winter when he was
Mt work upon the book he seemed OPP
pressed by some secret anxiety.
There was n knot in his forehead
all the time, said Mrs. Hawthorne.
Finally one evening he went to her
and said that he had written something
which he would like to read aloud.
The work amounted to very little, but
still he would like to read It, All that
evening he read but as the romance
was unfinished ut bedtime his wife
made no comments, knowing that he
dlsliked criticism until one had heard
the whole.
The next night he read again. and
now her suspense grew so uncomfortable
that in the midst of moving scene

floor, pressed her hands to her ears
and declared that she could not bear

a gentleman to do anything he usually
will comply at once, but when we get a
