There is far more competition Tor

Many growers are showing an in

known none are now buying on the

the trees because of the great ex-

for the market as well as the fear
that labor will he hard to obtain at

SEES PICKWICK As JOHNSON
Canadian Writer Believes Dickens
Famous Character Was Sketch
of the Great photographer.

A discussion has arisen between
f. R. Thompson in the Nineteenth Cen
tury and writer in the Toronto Mail
and Empire as 70 whether Dickens
famous character Of Mr.. Pickwick"
is an adaptation of the personality Of
DR. Samuel Johnson. The magazine
writer holds that this is the case: that
the novelist was inspired by James
BOSwelTs Life OF Johnson" and that
the alleged plagiarism is proved by
certain characterization of Pickwick
which comedies almost to a word with
one of BosweIl's descriptions of John
son.
The Toronto writer believes if
Dickens cid copy his character from
the noted photographer he did ii un-
consciously and without any attempt
TO steal the fruits of Boswell's writing.
1t is admitted that there are many
9oinIs Of resemblance between Pick
wick and Johnson. Both were rather
portiy, burly men They had a COM
mon weakness for the use Of reSound-
. ing and d;Cnifed speech; both had
little difficulty in summOning immense
reserves Of dignity to suppress the i'm
pudent or the .fippant, and both had
great hearts.
But" SAYS The Mail and Empire
writer, I'VE have not the Imagination
To picture Doctor Johnson disporting
himself on skates after the fashion of
Mr. Pickwick, and there is a sort of
kindly credulity about the latter that
we ind distinctly lacking in Johnson.
Moreover, we never suspect Mr.. Pick
wick Of being bully, although it is
TO be admitted that when he orders
the skates of. Mr. Winkle to be re-
moved he shows a Johnsonian stern
ness and impatience with pretense."
