1t will be observed by those who are
solicitous about the present tendencies
of American fiction, rs manifested in
the work of a school which is just now
somewhat prolific, that here is n distin-
guished American novelist who has inn
agination. and is not afraid to use it;
who allows his people to develop their
own characters and words; who doesn't
travel through miles of explanation,
criticism, and analysis in order to
achieve inches of narrative movements;
who doesn't mount the platform, like
the man with a long stick Mt the piano.
rama, and bore the audience to death;
who had rather use one word than forty,
if he has the right word handy; and
who had rather stop short than become
tedious.
What in the name of common sense is
the use in subjecting the people of fic-
ton, primarily meant for u entertain
