THE JOLLY PARIsIENNEs. By Emile lola. T.
b. Peterson & Bros, Philadelphia, publishers.
Paper: Price rs cents.
This, the latest production of Emile lola,
is a romance of decided interest, marked
power and unusual sprightliness. 1t deals
mainly with ''grande passion" and the
eccentricities of Parisian society are de-
picted in a vein of lively, good-natured
satire. Louise Neigeon and Bertha Gaucher
aud are ladies such as only the gay French
capital can produce They have all the re-
finement of luxury and education added to
extreme vivacity and jollity, closely ap-
preaching recklessness, yet they are never
other than ladylike and bewitching. Born
fiirts and skilled in all the arts of coquetry,
gifted with beauty, grace and intelligence,
they are in the. highest degree chic, and, at
the same time, as shrewd as they are
piquant George de Vaugelade meets
Berthe and Louise-blonde and brunette
and submits to their destinations in turn.
Louise however, makes the deepest impress
sion on him, and the denouement of his
"grande passion" is as unexpected as it is
sanitary and instructive.
