TWO hundred and forty-seven illustrations aid
the understanding Of d volume by a. Z, Y. Lilley
and ". Mdgley. entitled, a Book Of Studies
in Plant Form. with Some Suggestions for Their
Application TO Design" published by Chapman
& Hall in London and Charles Scribner's Sons
in New-York. The book is elaborate: il is also
extremely busnesslike as regards the method
Of presentation and the treatment of the subject.
Here is an extract from the preface, which de
fines its purposes and applications:
One Of the notes of recent decorative art has
been its comparative disuse of the elements and
forms of historic ornament and its return to
Nature. and especially TO floral forms, for in
spiration. Now. il is seldom that the plant most
suitable for a particular design is in season
when II is wanted. and it is often difficult
sometimes IMPOSSIBLE 10 find drawing of the
ornamental side Of many plants that the authors
venture 10 hope that designers Of all kinds will
welcome a series Of more or less decorative
drawings and photographs from nature.

ter. which is likely to stir up this question once
more The new matter Will appear in the shape
Of new introduction Of some length.
This story has recently been told about Will
Sam Dean Howels and Henry James in their
earlier davs: A certain prominent publisher in
New-York had invited numerous guests TO q
literary evening OF which the piece de r6sis-
tance was 10 be the presence Of Mr.. Howels and
Henry James on the very eve of the event the
publisher fell suddenly in, and requested his
son-in-law 10 act as host in his place Now the
son-in-law WAS = business man not accustomed
To consort with literary folk. and not enthusias-
ticaIly anxious for their company. In fact. being
a modest man. he felt that he could not support
conversation sparkling with honmots and scin-
tillatinE with epgrams He therefore urgently
desired 10 escape the ordeal; but his father-in-
law kind and wealthy man. and it seemed
inadvisable 10 decline. SO he promised to Off
ciate. And this was his account of the affair:
4 got through very much better than I expect
ed. But confess that was little scared at
the meeting between HowelIs and James. Now
I'm in for the genuine briIliance. thought I, and
I waited for the shock.
'Hun1-eh-ha-how are you Mr.. James" said
Howells.
'Ah-hum-eh-how are you, Mr. Howells? p
said James. And that was about all a Philis-
tine told later that literary stars We're afraid
say much one another for fear an idea
might escape and the other fellow would print
it. It was great fun for me. I haven't been
afraid Of literary gatherings since"

OUR VANISHING GRAIN TRADE.

Some current statistics put forward by n COM
mittee Of the New York Produce Exchange
show in a startling manner the extent TO which
this port, and therefore all the United States
is losing the export trade In grain and -four.
AS have hitherto pointed out, such trade
is being diverted to Canadian ports. So far
has the transfer proceeded that Canadian ports
ship the bulk OF the grain crop OF the
continent, and the major part of our own crop
goes abroad from Canadian ports.
According to official statistics the population
of Canada in 1900 was about 100000. and her
exports of her own grain and breadstuffs TO
Great Britain amounted to $14,SS3,171. At the
same time the population of the United States
was 100000, and its exports of grain and
breadstuffs to Great Britain were S15j, O96,445.
Thus the United States, fourteen times the size
of Canada in population, was sending to Great
Britain ten times much grain and flour. Yet
last week there went abroad by Canadian routes
1,002,2G5 bushels, and from the Atlantic ports
Of the United States only SOC bushels If
add the Gulf ports the United States total
was 1331,S11 bushels. That is to say, Canada
only one-fourteenth the size OF the United States
and selling only onetenth as much grain is
shipping about 80 per cent more than our At
lantc ports, and within % per cent of our en-
tire Atlantic and Gulf ports shipments. The ex-
