Miss Dickens THE ELDEST DAUGHTER OF CHARLES DICKENS MISS MAMIE DICKENS has, up to this time, been induced to do but littleliterary work. Her first Christmas story, in the Christmas LadiesHome Journal, shows, however, that the genius of Dickens is inherited by hiseldest daughter, and in her first magazine article for the Famous Daughters*issue of the Journal, she will show this even more conclusively. MissDickens has written a reminiscent article telling What My Father TaughtUs, in which she outlines the methods adopted by Dickens in the educationof his children, the precepts he held up before them, the prayer he composedand taught them, giving a glimpse of Dickenss domestic life which will beread with interest by every lover of his works and personality. Later in theyear Miss Dickens will begin, in the Journal, her series of the inner life ofher father, under the attractive title of My Father as I Recall Him.

Mrs. Lathrop has been equally successful in prose, poetry andfiction. It is perhaps in her stories that Mrs. Lathrop excels, and thusthe readers of the Journal will be able to judge her at her best in the storyof The Love of an American Girl, which she has written for the forth-coming special issue. It is a tale in direct contradiction to the prevailingmarriages of American girls and foreign titles—a story shifting in scenesfrom the quiet of an American rural community to the diplomatic surround-ings of the American legation at London. Mrs. Lathrops story will openthe Journals special number.
