    An Evening Contemporary Notes As A Curio...

    An evening contemporary notes as a curious coincidence that the late novelist , Tour ^ emef , has desired in his will that Ms body be taken back to Russia to be buried in the St . Petersburg

    cemetery by the side of the critic Bielinski . According to the writer m , there are probably but _ few ' T » J novelists . 1 V » VIAIOUO who < t 11 V would T'UUIVA desire Ul / tjilt to UW repose XVil 7 V _ JFO *_ ' in III death VXViMUll anywhere UUJ TTUUtV near 11 V / UIX a CV critic _•__— IV , and C * A __ _ he X—• affirms UIUJL 1 JJO that VXldlV

    next , indeed , to the publisher , who never gives for a novel so much money as the author considers it to be worththere is no one whom the ordinary novelist hates so much as the critic

    who never bestows upon , a novel so much praise as the author believes to be its due . ' The , explanation of this lying do ^ wn of the lion and the lamb is , however , soon supplied by thefactthat

    critic and novelist were fast friends , and as our contemporary explains : ' Bielinski took care to offer his counsels to Tourg _ uiief not publicly and after publication , when such advice is a good

    deal worse than useless , but privately and beforehand . ' If , however , publishers were always to act on the same humanitarian principle of g elin iving advice while there is still time to act aooui about upon
