me taking them. If a dose or two had

Tricks Of Autograph Hunters.

Some autograph hunters tricks are
revealed in the Connoisseur. George
Eliot was taken in by a lady who en-
listed her sympathy in fictitious social
work. Another wrote to Ruskin a
toucting letter Of supplication which
elected no reply. She wrote again in
tone of almost piteous entreaty,
but still silence. Then she adopted
another name and address. became
the bogus secretary of an imaginary
art club for young students in prov
incial town, and invited Mr.. Ruskin
to come down and deliver an address
The simple-minded author wrote back
a long, delightful letter. asking to be
excused from giving an address un
til the club had made some progress
but imparting much admirable coun
sci and cseful rules Of guidance.

Both "esplanade" and boulevard"

original boulevard was bulwark or

its extension to other void spaces
