No doubt there was some ground for this belief.

begins to bum the air that the slager on the stago is singing.

betrayed into a desire to counter the compli«. mentary marking with an abusive inscription written alongside, which, of course, would only reduce us to the level of the volgarian who aroused our fury. Ucarcely less exasperating in it to encounter emphatic marks of approval against a passaĝo which to us is absolutely. incomprehensible.

their existence. I cau confidently offer this as an example. George Gissing's “Private Papera of Henry Ryecraft' first appeared serially in ong of the monthly reviewa; and being one-h evening in St. Martio's Library: 1' read the current lostilment. It included a very charac teristic, humorous-savage paper on vagota- rianism, in which the following sentence oc- curred:

I hate, with a biller hatred' the names of lentils and haricots-those pretentious cheats of the appetite, those, tabulsted' humbugs, i those certificated aridities calling themselves buman food

In the margin was scrawled in a crudo, labor ious handwriting this comment of EU. KAODY-, - mous critic: "I think haricot beans are" very ✨- nice.

I honestly regard this as the most admirable margical comment i ever met with. In is much better, because void of the suspicion of theatricality, than the note writton in a,wo- ma's handwriting (Mr. Barrie tells the story) discovered on the' title-page of ́ à copy of **Tess of the D'Urbotvilles"-" How 1 bats. Thomas Handy!"

CONFESSION.

But I have yet to explain why it was that, after nursing for so long my prejudice against book-marking, I eventually marked a book myself (It was my own book, let me hasten to explain) Perhaps though I am very doubital-it will help if quots the passage, It comes from De Quincey's essay on Willian Wordsworth in his Reminiscences of the English Lake Poets":"

The misgivings of any vicious or unhealthy state, the impulses and suspicious gleams of truth struggling with cherished error, the ins lincts of light conflicting with darknes these are the real causes "of that hatred and intolerant acorn which is evar awakened by the first dawnings of new and important sys-- tems of truth. Therefore are: the. firstfeable struggles of nature towards ascund. et state of health always harsh and painful; for the falie system, which this change for the beiter disturbs had, at least, this soothing ad- vantage that it was self-consistent. There fore, also, was the Wordsworthian restoration of elementary power, and of a higher or tran». scendent 'truth of nature, received at first with such maliganot disgust. For there was a galvanic awaking in the shock of power, as is jarred against the ancient system of me judices which inevitably revealed so much of truth as made the mind jealous; enlightened it enough to descry its own wanderings, 'but pot enough to recover the right road. The more energetic, the more spasmodically po tent, are the throes of nature towards her own re-establishment in the cases of a pended animation-by drowning, strangling, etc.—the more keen is the anguish ́of raviva), My hand stole involuntarily towards my pencil packet as I reached the end. For second I checked myself, realising the strange | thing I was about to do, but the impulse was irresistible, and is another moment the guilty deed was done.

THE BOOK-MARKER'S JUSTIFICATION, Why? Well, it is obvious that my explanation. would be an explanation only to myself. The words took an authoritative 'hold upon my mind they said something whịch & needed fo bear said; whereas it may ba that to you they have no authority and no appeal, a po budg

But although I cannot hope to explain it, the incident lifted certain scules from my eyes that bad blinded me to some substantial justifica. [Bao sioaz for the book-marker's practice. I realised

that there do come occasions in a man's rend•·} ing when a chance thought of the author co fuses his mind that he is inspired to do things. to which both his reason and bis prejudicis. are hostile. Thut the marking of a book need
