1.-THE six best-selling books is a
phrase flashed at US at every book
store, commented upon in many re-
view columns, and mentioned so ire
Quently in conversation that 1t has be-
come a household expression. Yet,
familiar as the term is, very few
know how membership in this proud
sextette Is determined, or just what
constitutes a "best-seller." Most peo-
pie seem to regard the expression as a
loose phrase devised for the benefit of
publishers advertising. AS matter
OF fact, the term is precise and exact,
inasmuch as the statistics of sale are
collected with the greatest accuracy
and fairness, and the announcement
that a book is among the six best
sellers indicates definitely and surely
that it has won a wide measure of
popularity. The method of determin-
ing 1.-THE big six was devised by the
personal supervision of Mr.. Arthur
Bartlett Maurice. the editor of the
magazine. Toward the end of each
month, the leading book dealer in
eac hof the larger cities Of the coun-
try mails to Mr.. Maurice a ballot
showing the six books which by actual
count have sold best at his store dur
ing the month. Mr.. Maurice tabulates
the count to determine the six best
selling books for the country at large,
and the result of the vote is printed in
the next issue of the Bookman. which
thus serves as an approximately
scientific barometer of the reading
public's taste.
The third volume of the new Evers-
ley Tennyson contains THE .Idylls of
the King" and the Notes of the poet
and his son. the present Lord Tenny-
son, are naturally of great interest.
They tell more clearly than has ever
before been told, how the scheme of
the Idylls' formed itself and grew in
the poets mind. Moreover, these
Notes are full of references that
throw light on the personality of Ten
nyson. Thus, his son notes that
and the Passing of Arthur were his
favorite idylls for reading aloud"
With reference to the title the poet
says, 81 spelt my Idylls with two Is
mainly to divide them from the ordf-
nary pastoral idyls usually spelt with
one l." With regard to the inception
of "Guinevere" the editor has this
note: MY mother notes in her Jour
nal: July g. 1857, A. has brought me
as a birthday present the first two
lines that he has made of Guinevere,
which might be the nucleus of a great
poem. Arthur Is parting from Guine-
we're and says,
But hither shall I never come again,
Never lie by thy side; see thee no
more;

The appendix contains nearly one
hundred pages of such notes as these,
of inestimable value to the lover of
