Reseña del editor

If any reader should find his own name in these pages, I ask him to believe that my criticisms, whether just or not, are honest, friendly, and well meant; and I do not take refuge, as a reviewer may, behind the screen of anonymity. I suppose theE nglish language, with all its faults, is on the whole the best that man ever spoke. Let us do all we can to keep it good. J. P. K.
