Literary Notes.
A witty writer has said that life would be endurable if it were not for the month of August. Romance provides the best possible means for making one forget the discomforts of the dog-day season, its August issue being a model "Midsummer Number." A feature is made of the remarkable tales of Polish and Hungarian writers, foremost of whom is Maurice Jokai. Among these tales is "The Fate of a Nihilist," an original production of great power; "The Attaiman," a wonderful story from the Polish; and a Hungarian election comedy. A humorous watering-place sketch by Geraldine Bonner; a charming love story by "The Duchess"; a blood curdling ghost story by Guy de Maupassant; an ideal rural sketch by Henri Greville; and a very funny incident by Fernand Beissier, are a few of the many other attractions.
This Magazine is issued by Romance Publishing Company, Clinton Hall, Astor Place, New York; at 25 cents a number, $2.50 a year.
