I ran like this:
I "Bevereud Sir—You have now for
nearly two years bestowed great care
and labor npon us. ministering to our
J spiritual welfare and striving for the
health of our souls to such an extent
tb;it you l -ive greatly Impaired your

< ■* is naturally a confusing thing
I to 1 i; • om. but I was bound to re
s| ii-* t . s'icli an eloqueut appeal, ond

riswerwl with considerable efTort:

j "1 don't believe she would have me."
This seemed to me like matchmaking

to marry, and then to choose the girl
i besides! But the worst was still to
coinc. "We have already seen her and

Brother Rajappan.

An Ingenuous
Criticism
By F. A. MITCHEL
Jirason. an author, having done uiore
cribbling (ban was good for his
lealtb, was ordered by his doctor to
;<) into the country. Ho chose a small
ww 11 called Hollywood because there
v:is a library there, and if he was for
liddeu to write he could at least read,
vbich was not what his doctor intend
d at all. lie wished his patient to be
nl of doors—walking, driving, boating,
ud the like,
.Tliuson went Into the library as soon
is he reached Hollywood. It was a
mall nltnir, and lie had read most of
in- books it contained, but there was
hat in the atmosphere of the place
vhiih attracted him, and be would
atiier read a book he didn't like tlian_
lone at all. He had finished writing
i novel before leaving home and had
trough! a copy with liiiu. which lie
leposited lu the library.
One day while lie »vas silting at n
able intended for those who wished
o read lu the library with a book be
ore him the silence of the place was
iroken by the entrance of a woman,
she had a qni.-k step and a piquant
ook about her. Going to tliC shelves
obtaining fiction, she cast her eye
iipldlv over the books and at once
louuced upon .liaison's novel. Evi
lently •'lie had exhausted the shelves
iud recognized a new bonk the mo
urn'. she saw it. Bring in a hurry to
" t at it. she took a seat by a window
ind bexau ils perusal.
This interested .limson very much—
ndeed. more than the book ho was
'ea<!ii»:r. An author is hungry for
rill i: 111. and he watched the young
lady as she made the pages tly, satis
led that his uroduetlon was making a
lrofoiinil InipiT.sjon on her. At times
per 'pioms would • 'ontract at some ac
:ion or sentiment ii contained; at oth
»r.- her face would take ou a benign
■sptw-ion when perhaps a character
rt-:,s sViwing some heroic trait. The
liook nns a short one. and the lady
:e:;l it at one sitting. When she had
inislu I and was about replacing it on
lie shelf .Unison stepped up to her
ind. bowing, deferentially said:
"Beg pardon! I am a stranger in
tiie town, with nothing to do. I am
uni'au' iar with the books in this li
L>i n*y . nd would l.e greatly obliged to
you if you would recommend me
something to read."
"Fiction, history, travel, philosophy
jr what?"
"Fiction. 1 have noticed that yon
have been absorbed in a book you
were reading. Could you recommend
it V"
"Xo."
.limson was quite taken aback by
this, but he recovered himself and
said:
"I am surprised, from the interest
you appeaivd to t ike in it, to hear you
say that. What is there about it you
don't like?"
'•What's the matter with them?" I
"Well, there's Margaret I.ee. What i
did she want to throw herself away |
'iti that country professor for when
-he could have made Donald Kimball
happy and saved him from drink? *
Then there's Edward Atkinson, the f
most perfect fop 1 t*ver heard of. It ^
^eenis to me I can see him now pranc- >
in,' along. tlie conceited puppy, think- j]
ihimself the most splendid fellow i
In the world. Old Mrs. Perkins, who •'
was forever worrying over that boy of >
hers he a use be wouldn't wear an over- j
coat or ruliliers. wns a fool. She would 'j*
declare tli.-it be shouldn't have another J
cent of spending money for a week, .«
then give him a five dollar bill for a |
football. She was spoiling the boy." '
"IIow did you like the hero?" \
•'The hero! I would just like to get £
hold of that man! He aggravated me f
more than any character in the boot. Jj
Why, if he made love to me as he did
to Alice Lonsdale I'd—I'd"—
"What would yon do?" *
"I'd stick a pin in him!"
"I suppose these persons will Irame- >j
dintely pass out of your mind now that '
you have finished the book." "
"Not at all. I shall remember them
always."
"What for—their general cussed
ness?"'
"Oh. 1 dou't know! I snppose so."
"Tbanlc you very much for your ;n
foroiation. I don't think I'll read the
iiook after your description of it."
"I certainly wouldn't."
Jiinson wrote his publishers that he
h: (1 got an ingenuous criticism on his
novel. He didn't think the book would
so. Persons who read it would not be
likely to recommend it to others.
The next day he went to the library
again and while reading looked up at
an entrance.
'There's that little fool who criti
cised my hook," he said to himself.
She nodded (0 him as she passed,
went to the fiction shelves and took
down a book. Jlmson, who was watch
ing her. was astonished to see that
it was his novel. She sat down with
it and was soon as much absorbed in
It as (ho day before. .Timson went up
to ber and said:
"Why, I thought you didn't like that
book!"
"I don't."
"But you are reading it a second
time. Why do you do that?"
"I want to read about all the ridicu- '
lous things those people did."
Jimson wrote a second letter to his
publishers. It was this:
You needn't send me any more reviews
of my novel. I think 1 have an Inkling
why people read such stuff, and 1 don't be
lieve critics have.
You make a mistake if
you do not stop at
