and have now become Roumanian popular proverbs. It is not always easy to trace the immediate source of popular literature. Here we have one.—M. Gaster.
We hear with regret that the issue of our contemporary Mélusine will cease at the end of the present volume. M. Gaidoz has lost the assistance of his fellow-worker M. E. Rolland through ill-health, and finds that advancing years make it impossible for him to carry on the publication single-handed. So the oldest purely folklore serial comes to a close.
Notice.
The Council of the Folk-Lore Society, acting on the recommendations of the Publications and Bibliography Committees, have decided that the Bibliography of current folklore literature shall in future appear annually instead of quarterly. Books and articles published in 1902 will therefore be catalogued in March, 1903, and no Bibliography will appear in the intervening numbers.
