PIPEFULS
Reading edition
"These sketches gave me pain to write; they will give the judicious patron pain to read; therefore we are quits. I think, as I look over their slattern paragraphs, of that most tragic hour—it falls about 4 p.m. in the office of an evening newspaper—when the unhappy compiler tries to round up the broodings of the day and still get home in time for supper."
The Author
"Envelops in clouds of fragrant English many quaint ideas about life, living, and literature ... A belated Elizabethan who has strayed into the twentieth century! These piping little essays are mellow and leisurely!"—The Sun, New York
