SuppIantlnu MIR. HoWeIls,

Prof. Brander Matthews, at a dinner
In New York, said Of literary criti-
cism:
"a good deal Of 1t, too, is biased.
A good deal of 1t is like Mr.. Walton's.
"Mr. Waltons daughter, college
girl, wrote, at the age Of IS, novel
which her father brought out for her
at his own expense.
During the Christmas holidays Mr..
Walton gave party in his daughters
honor and at this party the young
girl read from an improvlsed platform
chapters out Of her book.
Her fond old father was carried
away by the reading. SO tremendous
ly indeed did his admiration for his
daughters talent enkindle him that,
as the girl read on. the old man could
be heard muttering over and over:
"Howells be hanged! Howoils be
hanged"
