NoVELIsT's GOOD WORK.

Charles Reade, who stands among
the best of the English novelists
whose books were written with a seri-
Gus purpose, was born 100. years ago
in Oxfordshire. lie graduated at
Oxford, was educated for the bar,
and made a success in the law. He
was more than forty years old before
he began to write novels and plays.
His inclinations lay in the direction
of dramatic writing, and while 'l'he
Lyons Mair' and several other of his
plays were very successful, it was
with novels that he accomplished a
real work. His purposes, strongly
worked out in his books, represented
a form in the laws of England re-
garding lunacy, questions of prison
reform, the important matter of
copyright in books and plays, and in
the vital matter of criminal proceed
ure. His death occurred at his
home, near London, in 1884.

PRICED HIS wIFE's CRITICISM
huxley Not Above Acknowledging the
Value Of Her Assfstsncc--His
Advice to Herbert Spencer.

Mrs. Thomas Henry Huxley, who
died recently, was her husbands
chief critic, and all his writings were
submitted for her approval before
they we're seen by any other eye. To
her judgment, says their son, was
due the tonine down of many a pas
sage which erred by excess of vigor
and the clearing up of phrases the
public might have found obscure.
Writing to her in 1868, he confesses
that the editor Of Macmillan's had
brought him the proofs of the fa-
nous lecture on "Piece of Chalk"
and said, "There is one paragraph ]
can't make head or tail Of" az
looked to where his finger pointed"
wrote Huxley, "and behold, it was
the paragraph you objected to when
| read you the lecture. / told him,
and said l should confess, however
set up it might make you"
An incident of the Huxleys' hon
eymoon was a visit from Herbert
Spencer, desperately trying, as usual,
to escape from his morbid condition
They we're at Tenby, and their re-
port of the place tempted him. 81
had hoped to benefit by going out
dredging, and also by the pleasures
of companionship. But / was disap-
pointed. My state was such that /
had to shun society, being unable to
bear more than few minutes con-
versation."
1t was Huxley who, later on, pre-
,cribed for Spencer "gyneopathy"-
the sympathetic companionship of a
wife; admitting, however, that the
remedy had the serious ineonve-
nience that it could not be left off
if it proved unsuitable.

Who Makes Money
Farming And How?

In the current issue of Farm and
Fireside, the national farm paper
publishedat Springfield. Ohio. Judson
c. Weliver. Washington correspon-
dent Of that publication. writes an
inter esting article in which he shows
that large farms are more profitable
II an small ones in proportion to the
dollars invested, de says that after
two or three years of investigation
the Government has published bull
sletin presenting the conclusion of q
survey of representative farms in
Indiana, Illinois end Iowa, wherein
is shown who makes the money
farming and how. also whe loses it
and why. Following is an extract
giving some of the facts contained
in the Governments reports:
In the first place, it seems to have
discovered that most of it is made
by the lsndlord. and that chiefly out
of the increase in land values. The
farmer gets poor wages for his work.
In startling large proportion of
the cases he gets no wages at all.
after allowance is made for interest
on investment ard cost of help. The
man on the small farm makes less
wages than the man on the bigger
farm. because it costs more for what
the efficiency experts might call over
head ope rating costs on a small than
on a large farm. If you don't own
enough land to make good-sized
economic ia ming unit. rent some
and farm it along with what you
own. If you can't get it, sell what
you have and GO where you can buy
enough. CT rent enough. to make
the proper unit.
THE Department figures show
that as the size of the farm increases
the proportion of it actually raising
crops increases. and the number of
horses and amount of machinery re-
quired per acre to farm it decreases.
Likewise. until the farm gets big
enough TO make it possible to
handle labor most efficiently-that
is, to have something for all thehands
to be doing all the time that is worth
while-the proportionate labor cost
is too large on the small farm. That
may lie tough on the intensive eX-
perts, but it's fact they can't get
around. The small farm must have
the various implements, but they
don't do as much work per dollar of
cost that they represent, as On the
bigger farm.
The survey which brought out
these and many more important facts
included PIT farms in Indiana. 1876
in Illinois. and 227 in Iowa. In each
State rather than half were operated
by the owners, and the resta by ten
ants"

"You don't seem to hold me in the
