Mr. Howells's philosophy in these Easy Chair essays is distinctly of the inclusive order, and the wide range of subjects treated is indicated by the following titles from the thirty-odd that make up the volume: « The Practices and Precepts of Vaudeville,» «The Superiority of Inferiors,» « Unimportance of Women in Republics,» «The Quality of Boston and the Quantity of New York.» Surely Mr. Howells has taken the earth for his possession; but has he not gone up and down in it for seventy-odd years? It is his right to speak and our privilege to listen.
