"Stanhope of Chester" is a novel
that can be cordially commended to
several segments of the reading pub
lie. In the first place there is mystery
and excitement in it. The plot is con
spicuousIy original, and the thrill is
almost continuous. 1t would be un-
kind to tell what it is all about, for
one Of the delightful sensa tions which
the reader obtains from the volume is
the subtle stir of gratified vanity that
he feels at being clever enough to
fathom for himself the mystery which
Mr.. Andrae is too artistic writer to
reveal in words. The book would have
the skeptical." 1t is a concession to
brutal common sense not demanded by
the reading public
In the second place the story is well
written. 1t is told with simplicity and
directness; the plot is we'll articulated;
the construction lis admirable There
are people who are glad to read books
for these qualities alone; and taken in
conjunction with the people to whom
mystery appeals, it will be seen that
they make quite an audience for this
ingenious and interesting tale
The Bookman is authority for the
statement that "Stanhope of Chester
made London success in the fall Of
1894, and that Mr.. Andrae is becoming
known as a writer of short stories of
exceptional brightness.

young Greer Of Kentucky" would,
perhaps, be be a more promising
book if it had more conspicuous faults.
It's demerits are chiefly negative, the
greatest of all being the fact that the
author has no very strong grip on life,
and is therefore unable to persuade
her readers that the tale she has to
tell is worth telling. There are pleas
ant passages in the book; the scenes
in which it is laid are moderately un-
| familiar to readers; the story is intrin-
| sically as valuable as many otT ars
which have won recognition, but the
book lacks the freshness, the convic-
tion, the force, that gives life and
| popularity to stories whose plots alone
| could not command especial interest.

done some of the best work in the

The most conspicuous literary activ-
ity of the past year or two, in any Sc
rious vein, is offered to the public un-
der the general title of sociology. The
grouping has been without any special
principle of arrangement, and has in
cluded discussions of the school of
pseudo prophets of reform, headed by
Prof. Heron, whose only positive So
cial programme is an eXhortation, and
the works of those laissez faire theor-
lists who follow the evolutionists in be-
heving that all we need to do is to
watch the world right it's wrongs be-
cause it cannot help itself. The f>r-
mer are more difficult to deal with,
and the latter are so comforting that
one might easily wish they were as
sound in theory as they are soporific
in influence.
Prof. Giddings tells us that the time
has not come for an exhaustive treat
ise on sociology, but thinks there is no
reason why the science should remain
1narticulate, which is a wide sweep of
the arm by which he tumbles all his
rivals into their proper limbo. The
