THE PROOFREADER- MAN
WITHOUT FRIENDS.

The poor proofreader! Homeless, friend
less and alone, pariah of the society OF his
fellows, entirely without caste. Figuratively
stoned ,crucified and hung, drawn and quar-
tered; tolerated only by the bosses as an un-
mitigated but necessary evil, aud consigned
to the white heated precincts of Sheol hour
ly by the man who hires him and the wild
eyed horde which seeks his life blood. And
what has he done to deserve all this odium?
Possibly in the turmoil and wild shrieks of
a crazy-house proofroom, with man hang
ing over each shoulder as he reads, vying
with each other for the doubtful honor of
rescuing the proof from the cloven-footed
outcast, whereby he can relieve the tention
of his frowning boss, this poor man has vio-
lated some sacred rule or style, made good
English out of the copy-abortion some cub
reporter has inflicted on the composing
room, tried to make the paper he works for
appear less ridiculous by changing the in
tials of a well-known Baptist clergyman
who has been made to occupy the pulpit of
a quite as well-known Episcopalian who re-
ioices in the same surname; lost fraction
of minute to rescue Czenstochow, and take
it out of Galicia and put it in Poland, and
perform similar service for Przemysl,
which tired editor has placed in Poland,
the proofreader must never show evidences
of brain-fag given Sir Walter Scott the
credit for evolving "Marmion," instead of
allowing Tennyson to run away with the
honor, as another busy editor had planned to
print it.
But what's the use! Our great grandfath-
ers were singing the same doleful song. A
packed Jury has rendered its verdict and the
die is cast before the present generation of
proofreaders saw the light of fleeing day.
Time, with all its innovations and per-
iodic upheavals, has worked little change in
the hypercritical printer. The penchant is
still highly developed to spend five minutes
in the attempt to dodge the effort necessary
to make correction which would take one
minutes; the perpetual faulr-finder is just as
active as he was forty years ago, thrashing
his old brain to tatters with needless ankle
ties, carrying his troubles to his home and
to his bed to the distress of his family and
his slumbers.
The man to whom the comma is an alb
omination and who sees no excuse for its
existence, and who follows his copy so
strictly that the absence of punctuation and
the presence of faulty photography causes
no uneasyness because of an obtuseness
which renders him incapable of recognizing
either defect - this man flourishes like the
green bay tree and we see more of him than
we did in the old days, and, sad to relate,
his loud demonstrations of protest directed
at the Stupid" proofreader often eclipse
those of his more intellectual neighbor, who
often has righteous complaint, but smoth-
ers it rather than be seen in bad company.
1t was ever thus. Selah

BOOK-CRITIC

The characteristic features of this world

likes and dislikes.
have chosen for subject Book Critic
which introduces metaphysics,-the unfair
critic or cynic so to speak. Let us follow
| the meander of the author, likewise the
detractor simultaneously, so that we can
affirm that right is right, and wrong is
NO mans right.
Herewith are few books that won
fame and glory throughout the world.
Every reader of fact, and fiction. etc,
should possess three books, viz A Bible,
Lexicon also Rudyard Kipling's Barrack-
Room Ballads, which help one very, very.
much,
Mrs Henry Wood wrote several books
before she became prominent; Edna" was
one of her first books, but it was not until
long afterwards that she had her Chief
oeuvre, East Lynne, produced that
won sempeternal fame. Those who have
read the book or seen the play will never
forget her evergr cen production.
Charles Read d. c. L. who did much in
the reformation of prison regime, much to
the disguit of the autocrat
The production of one of his books, ''It
is Never to Late to Mend, caused quite
furOre amongst some of the governors of
jailes. But Read was undoubtedly correct
with his assertion, for he not only won the
day. but paved the way to brighter pros
poets for the unfortunate.
Dean Swift, the Poet, was one of Charles
Reeds worst enemies, prolonged con-
troversy ensued between them.
Miss M. +. Braddon, one of the best
| writers of fiction wrote more than seventy
novels. Her first book, 1.-The trial of a
Serpent, Melted her the small sum of
two pounds, ten shillings; her second book,
LADY Audery' Secret, made her fam
GUS Victorian Novelist, which has been
translated into several languages. Miss
Braddon died recently.
d. r. Blackmore produced several books
before he became famous, Lorna Doone''
was his best attempt, dcspitet adverse
criticism. Wilkie Collins with his famous
detective mystery, 1.-The Moonstone,"
staggered the world. 1t is story that
not only Sergent Cuff of Scotland yard
was technically at fault with his theories,
but the reader fails in attempting to
solve an impossible problem.
Charles Dickens, the man of many
characters, has book translated into many
languages, "Oliver Twist is one of his
best ventures, dealing mostly in eye olde
workers popularity.
Sir. A. Conan Doyle with his Sherlock
Holmes, caused another profound sensa-
ton. He has had many imitators, but no
equals. 1.-The White Company is the
story which caused him no end of trouble,
this company only went into action once,
and were almost annihilsted. The above
is biography de concise of famous
authors; some have overcome the defoil-
alton by the persistent methods which
are apt to be predominant amont the logic
al, thereby eliminating the morose indiv-
idual, who is so lethal with his unfair tao
tics at all times.

For Hungary Hank had slept that

Sweet, but hardly fit for him to eat:
So Hank decided he would try to

And, knowing that his pants were

He went around to the back door.
The merry jewellers within were
Raising such an awful din that no

Heard his timid knock, so they were
Destined for shock.
How could they know or ever dream
That Hank was eating their ice

So, when they brought the freezer

They found, of course. an empty tin
