Emerson, 81 read an old one" Public
libraries are, to a large extent, the
barometers of the shifting tastes of a
people, and the recent report of the
librarian of the Public Library of the
District of Columbia is full of interest.
In this report it is set forth that the
demand for new fiction is falling off
In marked degree, and that readers,
In increasing numbers, are turning to
standard authors. For the fiscal year
l909-l0 the number of volumes of new
fiction circulated was 1900 less than
for the preceding year, while the pres

10000 as compared with the year be.

This means that in many instances
the attention of the reading public has
turned, not AWAY from fiction neces,
sarily, but toward the masterpieces
sifted out by time, which are generally
alluded to as standard" 1t means
also, that there has arisen a keenel
intellectual taste, a more solid interest
which embraces within its range th'
