she nursed and cheered, and who. when
dying. married her and left her his fortune
Four husbands did this handsome Bess take
to herself in the course of her busy life. the
second and the third following the example
Of the first IN leaving her great possessions
These three she ruled with a strong hand
the third one so completely that Tor her sweet
sake he disinherited his children by a former
marriage. 4 marvellous woman Of business
was Madam Bess She bought and sold estates
with dazzling aGroitness; she herself conducted
the affairs of her property. experimenting
everybody and everything, watchful of every
expenditure. She had her softer side, this
managing woman-she was good to her poor
relations, and her flower garden at Chatsworth
was almost as dear to her as the fat purse
at her girdle. What one of the husbands of
her mature years thought Of her may be seen
in Sir William st. Los letters. My honest,
sweet Chatsworth." he wrote, My own sweet
Bess," My own more dearer to me than 1
am to myself" This was the too fond spouse
who left to his honest sweet ChatswOrth his
children's share of his goods as well her
own. This action was not much approved,
but little did sweet Bess care, and she soon
emerged from her mourning with a fourth
husband. the very great Earl of Shrewsbury,
one of the most faithful of Queen Elizabeths
officers, and soon to be one of the most ha-
raised and unhappy. For it was to him and
his new wife that the Queen confided the
charge of the fugitive Mary Stuart-and of
what that meant TO the poor gentleman our
author writes most entertainingly. One can
but pity his lot. He was we are reminded
as much prisoner Mary herself during
the seventeen years in which he was her
warder. He and his Bess could have no
visitors. could make no visits themselves: they
had a thousand daily vexations and worries
Of which the incessant complaints of their I'M
willing guest were not the least wearing. To

Some one with special interest in juvenilia
complains in "The London Globe" that people
viii not recognize the fact that the modern
child is more intelligent and altogether sharper
than his ancestors in their childhood" and that
books are frequently left imprinted because, in
the opinion of the publisher to whom they are
submitted they are too clever for children.
one publisher is mentioned as having said, In
regard to q fairy story which he admitted to
be humorous: al think all that repartee would
pass over their heads" We fully sympathize
with the protest directed against this attitude.
1t is the more disappointing because of late
years there has been widespread tendency
among authors to analyZe and report upon the
ways of children. The magazines seldom ap-
pear without 4 specimen Of the new nursery
tale. Any number Of books about children have
been published. Yet, as The Globe" states,
the popular idea Of what children enjoy read
ing remains Fundamentally wrong" though
all this investigation into their characteristics
had amounted to nothing. For example, an
adapted" version OF Lewis Carrolrs books
about Alice is announced. Everything has
been taken out that is at all pulling" say the
publishers. This, we should think. would only
be likely to spoil those immortal pages. Why,
indeed. should anything in them, whether
pulling" or not, be excsed? The child who
cannot enjoy them as they stand would better
LIT them alone, and derive its mental refresh
mcnt from e. Il, G books and the like No

speaking Of Punch" and its weekly dinners
at which subjects for the coming number have

So med to Us absurd, and we note with appre-
citation the inpatient outburst Of Mr. c. X

sounds rather foolish today to read SO much

Of editing to hear about these solemn deIibera-
tons as to what shall go into the succeeding

may say, without disrespect that that weekly
