of the novel, but the publishers, quick
to see their advantages, held off the
negotiations and it was a matter Of
only a little while before the managers
began to bid against one another for
its possession. 1t is know that a big
sum was paid down to the dramatists
before Barton & Wiswell received
their play. This firm, who own the
the rights Of the novel, took the risk
cheerfully, and that their judgment
was not at fault is proven by the vast
success the play has enjoyed. De-

road. Her ability to take on the years
that are supposed to pass over the

much favorable comment from the

Old London Cookshops.

Medieval London, besides being a
"city of tavernS." was famous for its
cookshops, such as the place on the
river bank described by Fitzs&phen in
the thirteenth century: There every
day We may call for any dish of meat,
roast, fried or sOddcn, fish both small
and great venison and fowl. If friends
come upon sudden wearicd with
travel to citizens house and they be
loath to wait for curious preparations
and dressings Of fresh meat let the
servant run to the water side, where
all things that can be desired are at
hand" This particular place Of public
cookery apparently did an indoor as
we'll as an outdoor trade, for Fitz-
stephen further described ii as being
used both day and night by multi
tudes of soldiers or other strangers
who refresh themselves to their con-
tent on roast goose, the fowl of Afri-
ca and the rare gadwit of Ionia." But

viands ?-London Chronicle.
