AUSTIN'S EGOTISM.
It Cropped Out Strong In Comparing
Himself With Tennyson.
Austin might almost he said to rival
James McNeil Whistler as having giv
en rise to humorons anecdotes—with
this difference, that while the anec
dotes of Whistler exploited his wit or
his superb arrogance ("Why lug in
Velasquez?”) those of Austin were has
ed on little more than the fatuous self
esteem whi *h enabled him (if ability
is the word) in 1S70. in hi> volume oi
so called criticism, “The Poetry ol the
Period.** to attack Tennyson. Hrown
ing. Matthew Arnold and Swinburne
as if the author of the book were the
superior of the whole pack ot them
It was apparently not this book, but
a later criticism written in ISSo. which
led Austin to boast of his friendship
with Swinburne and to declare that,
though he had been forced to criticise
Swinburne, tlit* latter had not permit
ted it to disturb their relations. It
proved that Austin’s criticism had at
traded so little attention that Swin
burne had not even heard ot it. and
when, following Austin’s boast, he
took pains to read it he became very
angry and would have nothing to do
with Austin
It was the same fatuity which led
Austin in his autobiography to adver
ti>c It s own ultra respectability as
compared with the possible "low tone”
of others. Tennyson might be acquit
tod perhaps of once using an improper
w«>rd in conversation, but Tennyson
certainly smoked, Austin never.—

American rail
roads are the fastest
and safest in the world.
The American trainman
counts his time in seconds.
Foreign railroad men carry no
such watch as the HOW ARD.
Official inspection of railroad
watches exists in no other country.
HOWARD Railroad Watchesf/er^r
setting) arc officially certified and adopted
by the time inspectors of one hundred and
forty of the leading railroads of America.
Better than that, their daily performance
is finer, more accurate than the most exact
ing railroad requirements.
The balance-wheel of the HOWARD
^ Watch is nude of special hard-tempered
steel—will not knock out of true with the
jar and vibration of railroad service.
Every HOWARD is made and ad
justed as a fine watch. Cased and timed
in its own case by the HOWARD watch
makers.
The price of the HOWARD is fired
—railroad models 55° t0 5*4°—,n<f *
printed price-ticket attached.
We carry this distinctive watch and
would like to show it to you.
