 The wisdom of collecting on a specialty has been commented 
 on by more than one writer on the subject. Mr. E. S. Williamson, 
 of ii8 Spencer avenue, Toronto, is one collector who has profited 
 by the process. He has issued, for private circulation, a catalogue 
 of the Dickensiana which forms in his library a group of much 
 interest. It comprises not only the v/orks of Charles Dickens, 
 but a numerous array of works relating to him from the monu- 
 mental biography of John Forster to the latest compilatior >t F. 
 G. Kitton and others. In addition to these are many ma^;.t:>ics 
 containing papers on Dickens, and collections of portraits .nd 
 illustrations to his works. The catalogue, which has some illus- 
 irations, is very interesting reading, and shows assembled a quite 
 portentous array of material much of wbfch is not generally 
 known. There are, of course, deficiencies in it. For example, it 
 lists neither of the two series of Dickens illustrations by Darley, 
 though it does contain the two fine sets of " Character Sketches " 
 by Frederick Barnard. The Darley designs, which were repro- 
 duced by phot(^raphy from the original India inks, are auite as 
 artistic as the ^rnard^ and much more dramatic. Mr. William- 
 son could probably obtain these by addressing the artist's widow, 
 Mrs. F. O. C. parley, at her house at Claymont, Del. There arc 
 other omissions, but, as the owner of the collection states, he is 
 constantly adding to it, and it is his purpose to render it as com- 
 plete as his span of life and the extent of his means will allow, so 
 that the addenda to his catalogue will, no doubt in time, make as 
 good readiojg as the catalogue itself.

A WRITER CHAP LIKE DICKENS. 
 
 IriiiH ihc big city (nr away 
 
 Our lad (whom liod defend from harm) 
 I las come /or three Rood monlhs to stay 
 
 With mum an' pop upon the farm ; 
 lie jes gulps in sweet country air, 
 
 An leeds the pigs an' chicket.u ; 
 When work is thro' he takes a chair 
 An' reads us bits from Dickens. 
 
 On Ixwks I never set much store ; 
 
 It takes too long to read 'em thro', 
 An checkers alius pleased me more, 
 
 Uiit this I 'low is somethin' new. 
 It Rets a kinder hold er me, 
 
 My slow old pulse it quickens, 
 1 jcs sit ther', an' long to see 
 
 Some 'er them folks in Dickens. 
 
 Ther's little Nell an' little Paul, 
 
 An' Peggotly an' Riah Heap, 
 An KarnalY,— I love 'em all, 
 
 lUit warn t old Fagin precious deep? 
 Weller an' Tapley. ain't they smart ? 
 
 The Sikes yer blood 'jes thickens ; 
 Tcmi Pinch an' Smike, why bless yer heart, 
 
 Ther plain as life in Dickens. 
 
 Them wayside inns an' queer back streets 
 To me they're all hung. full er charms. 
 
 An all so homelike when it treats 
 Er Christmas time at country farms. 
 
 Some folks want all the latest trash, 
 
 .,./'""' "P ^''h s'uffthal sickens ; 
 
 Iheyy better save ther* surplus cash 
 An buy some backs like Dickens. 
 
 He's Britisher, but, none the less. 
 
 We ain't a-goin' to take that sore ; 
 He s next er kin to us, I guess, 
 
 So's Shakespeare, Scott an' lots amore. 
 Could I be King, er some sich thing. 
 
 No work, an' lots er pickins', 
 It pears to me I'd ruther be 
 
 A writer chap like Dickens.
