OUT OF BOOKLAND (Continued from Page 1) full of nature lore as her descriptive books, and I suspect that this fact has something to do with their phenomenal sale, which has just passed the million mark. The career of ' Freckles" Is one of the curiosities of the book world. In 1906, two years after this story had been published, its sales still amounted to less than 5,000. Then the public suddenly discovered its charm, and now the total sales o fthis one book exceed 350,000, enough to bring comparative wealth to Its author even If her two later novels had not made similar records. “The genuineness of Mrs. Porter’s love of nature is evidenced by the fact that she has chosen to bring out a descriptive book on moths at a time when the populartt*' of “The Harvester" is at its height, and when a new novel undoubtedly would have brought her more money. Her home is at Geneva, Ind.”

WILBUR WRIGHT’S PREDICTION. Never was there a closer mouth than Wilbur Wright’s. A few weeks before Ills death, however, be talked about the future of the hydro-aero-plane, the amphibious thing that cavorts both on the water and in the air. He declared that the advent of this device opened an era of safety and usefulness for his invention. He thought it likely to be used to great advantage in naval and coast work, including the life-saving service, for mail and light express: to put belated passengers aboard ship and take off those in a hurry to land. He suggested it will soon be common enough for the tired business man to pull his
