NILE DAYS.

"Nile Days" u. B. Lippincott is the rather mis-
leading title Of attractive novel. by e. Katherine
Bates From the title alone would suppose the
book to be account Of travel. and the subtitle.
Egyptian Bonds" would lead him to believe that
the late Khedive's financial policy was under dis
cussion. Nothing. however, could be further from
the truth. "Nile Days" is romance. pure and sim
pie. The is laid in Egypt. which. by tho way.
seems to be gaining popularity trysting place.
Probably the story Of Anthony and Cleopatra has
given sort of love atmosphere to the land Of the
Sphinx. while the poets song
On my iifc In Egypt.
Oh, the dial lance and the witt
Oh, the hattery and the strifo
has served to kindle the fame There is wisely
very little attempt at guide book writing The
places of interest mentioned incidentally with
the thread of the story, and we not obliged to
continue schoolday studies of ancient history.
"Nile Days is really study of character than
well worked out story. The author has devoted
herself this specially and left the plot
of itself. The hero Of this tale is fascinating,
clever, but rather selfish young Irishman. and the
heroine q charming English girl The story of their
love and its unexpected termination is well worth
reading.
