Since the windows are south and west, it is a very bright room. Begonias, umbrella plants, primroses, geraniums — all sorts of bright flowers fill the windows.

LITERARY DEPART MENT. THE GAME-KEEPER OF CHARLCOTE HALL TALKS. AVE you, neighbor GTreen- sheve. By the mass, it fares ill for ye that ven- ture the wilds of unknown » lands. Methitiks the wisp o ' grey on your an- cient poll is thinner by far than mine, and I be a good four years your elder. Ye need a priest to shrive ye gossip, for such tales as ye tell of the new country do pass all believing. Of a truth, travellers returning from that far land do tell of things most curious. Mayhap it would please ye well to know how fares the world wv the folk who found adventure enow for them i ' the forests of Warwickshire. A score of years do show a vast change in men of our age. Old Gossip Patchen lieth i ' the church-yard, and his widow has ta ' en her another spouse. She hath a sad liking to w r edded life and fate had thrice seen fit to set her free. Masters Ellis and Shackley have gone to London, Tinesby to the gallows for an ower love of plunder, and Smedley is at sea. But all the rest do bide i ' the old places like unturned stones. But, marry, the sun doth hide his face to some men and spend all his glory on others. Neighbor Skakespearc hath scarce a penny tor the church — an less for ale — since Dame Fortune reversed her fickle wheel. Have ye heard of his ill luck? Nay? Well of a truth he is shent. Ye wot he knew the rote of making money, but as for keep- ing it he knew no more than doth a month old babe. He hath an uncommon free hand and he did lend and ffive like a lord till his own flesh did creep for want of cloak and the pangs of hunger gnaw for want of gold to buy him food. And now he lacketh naught but the mien and visage to be a beggar. His son, Will, hath risen sith his 2 father went down, for all London weepeth or holdeth his sides to see his wondrous plays. ' Twas chance, sheer chance, that set him up, for when Misfortune seems to cozen 3 us, she may turn our best friend at last. This Will had scarcely left his swad- dling clothes when ye sailed i ' Falcon for America, and then neighbor Shakespeare had all that men could wish i ' the way of worldly goods. So the stripling did grow and flourish in an ower amount of mis- chief. I ' faith, he was a lad to my liking, for the love of sport and adventure did lie as naturally in his heart as doth the love for singing in the linnet ' s throat. The leafy forests of Warwickshire were his play grounds. Do ye mind the mead about the grenewode ? I warrant ye, ye never found a fairer sight i ' the enchanted woods of America than the hazel copses, the treeless downs and the flowery mead, through which the Avon sparkles, in old Warwickshire. But the boy ' s nature allowed him not to be contented with that which was right- fully his own. So he and his fellows did raid my lord Lucy ' s deer park. Ay, full oft hath his bow-string sung the death- knell of his grace ' s game. Of a truth, he feared me not, though oft hath he fled from me i ' the very glare of day. But his legs were winged with mis- chief, and I could scarce hope to catch a prize runner of the May-Day games with my bandy legs. And then he had a fa-
