    biography it is invaluable to such as must keep themselves conversant with the doings of men and women who materially influence their

    fellows and the work of the world , while it is interesting to all who like to know what has given eminent people their eminence . The

    chief notabilities of the century are treated with considerable fulness , no essential fact in their careers being omitted ; the lesser lights

    are of course treated more briefly , but long or short the notices are invariably excellent . In fact , succinct — critical biograp — ^^ __ -j _ hies are _ g ^^ iv _ e _ n , j and

    the writers themselves are in many instances themselves men of reputation . Of course no editor is impeccable , and one or two mistakes

    have crept into the volume . Thus , in a notice of Carlyle that is otherwise admirable , Mr . S . Lane-Poole tells us in regard to ' Sartor Resartus '

    to that London ' Jeffrey with lent the him manus ( Carl cript yle and ) £ 50 arrange to go for up its publication , and this was the only occasion

    on which Carlyle condescended to accept help in money from anyone . ' What about the £ 100 that Carl Jo le whe S tuart the manus Mill len cri t , or rather f the 4 gave French , to yp

    Revolution' was burned ? Considering its range , however , the work as a whole is a remarkable instance of and good editing .

    From the same accuracy . — The Art of Cooking by Gas , ' by Marie Jenny Sugg . The author ' s aim in
