THE Two Husbands is another
OF Mrs. Harriet Lewis's exquisite nov
els. conspicuous for its matchless puri-
ty and depth Of thought. Her Lady
Kilda. 81 brought her hosts of admir-
ers, and the. present story is none tho
less absorbing. The characters are
spirited creations; the description OF
English life shows familiarity with
English society. One is attracted by
the utter naivete of the style and the
frank manner in which she voices her
opinions. The novel is thoroughly de-
liRhtful.
