Lady Milnes Gaskell, writing in "Chnm-bei-s's' Journal" savs,. love of books has little place in modern life; and in reply to the argument that is partly because there are so many books and so few good one?, says that if we have no beautiful literature it is our own fault, and we only get what we deserve. She is inclined to think the love of reading is/one of the gifts dropped into our cradks by the good fairies. - At anyrate, unless it conws to us early it seldom comes at all.
