tered the field as writer Of fiction This
recalls 10 the amusing critic Of the Pail
Mall Gazette that the great scientist was
himself an Omniverous reader OF novels.
''ln his earlier years he had devoured
the great poets. but as be grew older he
could not endure a line Of poetry. and
found even Shakespeare so intolerably
dull that It nauseated me- Correspond
ingly, his love for fiction increased. Scott.
Miss Austen. and Mrs. Gaskell were read
till they could be read no more. and even
the cheap stuff OF the circulating libarary
was not despised. He said once that he
found works of imagination a relief and
pleasure, and I often bless all novelsts.'
Many were read aloud TO him. and he

"a Nirginin Feud."

"a Virginia Feud" by George Taylor
Lee. is an interesting story Of the Vir-
ginia mountains. a region often explored
by the novelist. but always pregnant with
life. feeling. and character. II is based on
one Of those bloody feuds which for
years have desolated the mountainous dis
tricts Of Virginia and the neighboring
States. t5a only philosophical element ac-
cruing therefrom being the reflection on
what commercial and agricultural great
ness these regions might have attained to

novelist. and the present writer has
