LITERARY NOTES.

Some curiosity has resulted from the
fact that In discussing Mrs. Wards latest
novel ''The Testing OF Diana Mallory" the
critics are spelling the hero's name IN
two different ways. some writing
Marsham and others Markham. This dis
crepancy Is easily accounted for. The
spelling used In the serial in Harper 9
Magazine was Markham. and the was
changed to at the cahled request OF
ers' copies had reproduced the magazine
form. One is still left 20 wonder. how
ever. what were Mrs. Wards own rea-
sons for preferring MsrSham over Mark
