of the following biographical sketches have not hitherto been published. Of the remainder, many ran as a series in Lloyd's Weekly under the title of Half Hours with Celebrities'; some few have appeared in The World'; portions of two, respectively, in Black and White' ind in 'The Sketch'; The Queen,' 'St. Paul's'; while two were written for The National Press Agency.' These are now republished, with the respective Editors' kind permission, and are revised, corrected, and brought up to date.
