WHERE THAcKERAY STUDIED

The lover of Thackeray who makes
pilgrimage to the temple must not
confne his attention to Brick court,
for that was only one of the novel
lists temple homes. In 1881, when
Thackeray became a member of the
temple, he commenced his studies at
I Hare court by reading with Will
liam Taprell, and in 1S49, when he
was finally called to the bar, he took
chambers in Crown Office row, shar-
ing them, it is said, with Tom Tay-
lor of Punch. His Crown Office row
chambers have disappeared, but
Hare court, in which disastrous fire
was once extinguished with beer be-
cause the Thames water was frozen,
still stands.-London Chronicle.

"But Why" he asked, as he pulled
the branches Of an oak tree to and
fro in the extremity Of his emotion
and the calm June twilight, "Ehy do
you object to me ?"
"There's something about you that
| don't like" she answered, as she
drummed fitfully against birch tree
with her fingers.
Apprehensively he scrapGd the
bark from a tall pine tree.
"What is it?" he demanded.
s'Nyhat can there be about me that
could throw about you such a veil
of restraint about this time"
''The black hair about your shoul-
ders,' she answered, between
clenched teeth and two rows OF giant
hickories.
He removed the hair and stared at
it attentively. Then, barking play
fully back at a dogwood tree, he
laughed lightly.

of his mirth, Il can explain that, ]
