Moore's lines
'The light that lies
In womans eyes
Has been my hearts undoing."
The book is a vivacious account of
some OF the sentimental experiences OF
a fiirtatious young mana young man
of the type our grandmothers would
have called susceptible" It Is OBJ
viously unfair that such a character
should attribute his hearts undoing
to anything but the fact that, emotion
ally, he Is 'mush of concession" AS
he floats into an engagement with ev-
cry woman who crosses his path, the
results are naturally embarrassing,
but they cannot be attributed wholly
to the feminine contingent. The dia-
logue at times suggests Anthony Hope,
but Mr.. Harvey is far from possessing
as yet the sureness of touch which
makes the conversational gymnastics
OF Hopes characters such fascinating

but outside the large cities, in the
smaller towns, particularly in the
South and Middle West, the same
amount will furnish a much more
luxurious table than is here described
