When Miss Marie Manning, author
of Judith of the Plains" (Harpers,
was staying in the Catskll mountains
recently, in neighborhood where the
winter consumption Of hard cider is a
noticeable feature of domestic life, she
met boy gathering apples. He said

Hamlln Garland's chief diversion
when he Is engaged on novel Is IN
carpentry work-not on mere amateur
gimcracks, but substantial pieces OF
furniture. All of the furniture In Mr..
Garlands library at West Salem, WIS
cousin, was made by his own hand,
and It is of the heaviest and most dur
able variety, artistic In its simplicity
and strength. MY idea of furniture,
said Mr.. Garland, a few days ago, rs
that It should be of the kind that isn't
afraid of what child might do to 1t.
Let II be so solid that the activity or
children could not impress It." II the
children could be consulted upon this
point, how they would acclaim the
ideas OF the author of "Hesper!'
Julian Hawthornes description of the
friendly but curious relations subsiding
between his father and Emerson Is one
of the most interesting "reminiscences IN
his Hawthorne and His Circle MY
father read Emerson with enjoyment,
writes the son, Though more and more,
as he advanced IN life, he was disposed
to question the eXpediency OF stating
truth In a disembodied form he pre-
ferred II incarnate, as 1t appears IN lie
and story. But he could not talk TO
Emerson his pleasure In his society ala
not express itself In that FORM. Gmer-
son, on the other hand, cultivated my
fathers company. and, contrary to ms
general habit, talked to him contlnu-
ously; but he could nor read his ro-
mances; he admitted that he had never
been able to finish one of them, He
loved to observe him; to watch his ST.

speech which he was able to appreciates
Hawthorne rides well his horse of the
night. My father was Gothic; Emerson
was Roman and Greek But each was
profoundly original and INDEPENDENT
MY father was the shyer and more SOL
itary Of the two. and yet persons IN
need OF human sympathy were able to
reach more interior region In him
than they could In Emerson. For the
latters thought was concerned with

"There is no doubt, | suppose, that II
some one should get up voting con-
test to see who Is the NOSE eminent or

Home, In the Syracuse Post-Standard.
whether they read him or not people
know about him and like him, or, as the
expressive phrase goes, stand for him,
guess the secret OF II Is. for one thing,
that every one has a strong faith IN
Mr. Howels genuineness and Amerl-
canlsm. He does not go 20 Italy for
his scenes and characters as Marion
Crawford does; he does not retreat into
the past as Mr.. Churchill and most OF
the other romence writer's do. He deals
with the here and now, with Broadway
and Beacon street, with Iowa and CEN
trail New York, with the election OF
Mayor Low and the trust movement.
He handles all these familiar. common
place, and homely things. and makes
good stories OF them-no easy task. And
with all his humor and clear insight he
preserves a noble faith IA everything
that is American"
