dies when Eva is five years old, and
the child is taken back to England
by her English mother and brought up
in a sOrdid suburb of London in d home
SO crudely PhiHstine that every other
grief heaped upon the poor child seems
but insignificant in comparison with
the barrenness of her surroundings.
She visits at an epigrammatical
aunt's country place, where she meets
the two inevitable men-the one who
loves her and the one she loves: the
one who loves her is. as usual, of
comparatively little Importance. The
other man, Clayton SeafOrd, is rather
we'll drawn, the quality of the love
which he eventually gives her is con-
sistently the outcome of his nature.
Admiration of her peculiar beauty,
kindly amusement at her extreme in
nCCence. and a curiosity excited by
her unlikeness to the other women he
knew, combined with an easy Self-in-
dulgent desire for the mastery amid
favorable surroundings, led to a dec
iar2t-On of love on his part, honest
enough at the time. Afterwards, away
from her, and fallen heir to title
wealth and responsibility, Eva Corona
seems to him inappropriate. One
would suppose that Eva's resulting
heartbreak, combined with hereditary
consumption which rapidly develops
the Phllistine mother in a hopeless and
frienGless French resort, would have
been enough to dispose of so fragile
a heroine, but in Mrs Pains estima-
ton there is required a thunderstorm
and a stroke of lightning. This violent
death, unnecessary and detached so
completely from the story, has in it
but little art.
