cences of his father Nathaniel, have

The title Hawthorne and His Circle,

IN the minds Of certain readers. When,
a few years ago, Nathaniel Haw-
thorne's great romance, The Scarlet
Letter. went out of copyright, II was
reprinted by many publishers all over
the country, and thousands or readers
became acquainted with 1t for the hrst
time. Readers are not always very
observant of the precise names OF au-
thors, and one day Julian hawthorne
received a request for an autograph
from lady who professed herself one
of his most ardent admirers. II think,
she wrote. that / have read everything
that you have produced; but | must
say that that last thing OF yours, THE
Scarlet Letter is by far the best work
that you have ever done did the
lady get the autograph" was asked
by one Of the trends to whom Julian
Hawthorne related the story. "Oh yes"
he replied: "and | told her that, so
FAR from that being my last work, 1t

David Harum at last has forced his
way into the parliamentary arena,
OH henry 0dlllpDell- Zimmerman
speaking to large and enthusiastic
audience of Liberals at Bolton on Oct
is, made the following reference TO
David and his philosophy. The sub
feet under discussion was Mr.. Balfour's
policy Of retaliat0ry tariff, and Sir
Henry added Mr.. Balfour's maxim

what they always do to each other

worldly wisdom. / think more of that
maxim than of Mr.. Balfours, and II Is
to be observed that Mr.. Chamberlain
Is OF the Harum school. He is going
10 do IT first. to put an all-round duty
OF 10 per cent ut least upon all manu-
featured goods, irrespective of this
question of retaliation altogether, But
after all | prefer myself to foil back
upon the Anticipated maxim Of Scrip
ture that It Is better we should do
to others as We would that they should
do unto us"
