; THE SOLACE OF FICTION I That fiction should bo a solace and a source of strength in these clays of strenuous living surely iieods no verbal proof. Its history corroborates tho expectation which every new generation brings with it. Tho outcry against even tho best fiction as a diversion from serious-dims is slenderly supported by facts. Only foolish and dreamy people will ivaaio time and neglect-practical claims by constant novel-reading; it is as a mental refreshment after household or business toil that good fiction offers itself to weary folk, young arid'old. Tho late David Chfistiq Murray ombodied in plainest terms tho common " uses served by tho literature of fancy. Ho wrote:—"To tho middle-aged and tho elderly fiction is a luxury. A story-book is like a pipe. It soothes and gratifies, and it helps on idle hour to pass." Fiction in its proper placo is helpful, soothing, and restful, but .fiction in an advertisement-is appalling.-- It is not good for, the reader, or good for tho ■'■ advertiser.
