stealing and train wrecking, and the
rarest is forgery. 4.
Arson, in the country especially is
frequently a crime of childhood. Coun-

times they do this from reading about
romantic train wreckers. siore often
they do it out of curiosity. They pile

anything very serious will happen.
Children, of course, steal a good deal.
The best of men and women. looking

The Poet and the Beauty.

One of the finest houses in southern
England is Penhurst Place, the birth
place Of Sir Philip Sidney. Under the
trees Of it's park Edmund Waller paid
his addresses to the naughty Lady
Dorothea, whom he celebrated as Sach-
arissa. But the heart of Lady Dorothea
Sidney-who was the most beautiful
woman of her time-was untouched by
Walters amatory verses, and she re-
jected the poet in favor of the Earl OF
Sunderland. Many years afterward the
countess met Waller and, reminding
him sentimentally of the old days at
Penhurst, asked him when he would
a gain write verses about her. when.

A well. known. COLLECTOR acquired
what. he took to be, book published
by Aldus In the year 14S9. He paid
$1,000 for 1t and belies ed that it was
an original Aldus. because the publish
er's press mark, a dolphin coiled round
an anchor, appeared upon 1t. When
the. book was shown to an expert It
proyed to be beyond a shadow Of
doubt modern antique-that is to
say,sit was simply a copy of the orig
inal work printed by an ingenious book
fakir. SO clever was the imitation
that only an expert could tell 1t from
the original and rare book. Scores Of
persons during recent years have
bought facslmiles. of rare works under
the impression that they were getting
the originals. Dickens Sunday Un-
der Three Heads has been faxed
many times and sold as original to
collectors who no doubt treasure them
as rarities. Genuine copies of this
little book are worth good sum, and
some inscriptions, dealers, taking adj
vantage Of the circumstances, have
had it reprinted and palm off the
copies on unsuspecting bibliomaniacs
for the genuine first edition. t4i
Many men make a living by doc
toring'' old and rare books for un-
scrupulous dealers. These men are
adopts in the art of book restoring and
are quite able TO make good any part
of an imperfect copy. For instance.
if a rare book has q leaf missing 1t Is
handed over to a restorer, who re-
prints; the page with battered type,
the paper upon which it is printed be-
ing afterward .discolored with chem
fcals or tobacco water in order to give
it the true antique hue.
The first folio Shakespeare is, of
course. of great value, and it Is safe
to say that every possible deception
has teen practiced in fitting up copies
of this work for sale. At one time the
manufacture of first folio Shakespeares
was quite a trade A first folio having
several leaves missing had leaves in
serted from the second folio. while in
one case the entire play of "Cymbe-
line'' was reprinted and inserted in
first folio. The faxed" pages were
so cleverly done that several experts
were at first unable to detect them
when turning over the pages of the
work in question. Book restorers. as
a rule, are most ingenious artists, and
they can produce an imitation of
page of rare book which will deceive
hundreds of collectors. One particu-
lar restOrer has ''doctored" more than
a thousand old books during the last
two years producing pages in facsim-
lie and supplying colophons or deco
rated capitals. There is not a thing
wanting to make book complete that
this man cannot skillfully fake. >
