He had to fold his hands and dle and | rest beneath a stone (as many un- known artists lie) before he gained his own, before men learned to say, “That guy was in a class alone.” Now any- thing that Gissing wrote more precious is than gold, and you have seen the book fans gloat o’er tomes he used to hold; and George, who early lost his goat, lies pulseless in the mold. The news is flashed from pole to pole, all round the earth it some one, in a cubbyhole, has found a manuscript that George had writ- ten when his soul by travail dire was gripped. It truly is a great event. it jars this mundane sphere, it sends a thrill through every gent to whom good books are dear; but Gissing, in | his small green tent, sleeps on and ‘doea not hear. When George was toiling for his bread, a sad and tired galoot, we hung no wreath upon his head, no trumpets did we toot: we praise him now when he's too dead to care a tinker's hoot. | (Copyright.)
