to conduct a
lawsuit, an overcoat, or a doctor I
should promise to give every man's wife or

serious malady, a eet of furs or other article '
of sjpparel. w!it would the public think of the I
ability to tiy :ho case or treat the malady?
Iby would simply be scouted. The public
confidence in the value of their services would i

Bret Uarte's new novel, " Gajuukx Conboy".
fnji 0f incident. The Btory takes its title,
'Oahriel Conroy," from its hero, a simple,
good-hearted, honest old miner, of type some-
what different from that of bin illustrious pre
decessors in Mr. Harte's untings. Several
familiar friends, neverthelens. renew old ac
quaintance, among tbem Colonel Starbottle.
Tbe story is wholly in Mr. Harte's original
field, and is said to fulfil, as a novel, the prom
ise of his very best tales. The opening is pro
nonnced, by critics who have had access to the
manuscript, to be verv powerful; it is a terrible
picture of a staiving camp, and from this -tart
tho story is said to hold the reader with n al
most uncomfortable grip, seeine- that ho has to
wait month by month. New York Tribune.
