the enterprising editors introduced
book reviews. These reviews have
proved the most interesting feature of
the paper. We always enjoy reading
them whether we are willing to accept
the critics point Of view or not. Clever
this reviewer always Is, and often wit
ty; if she occasionally overstrains a
point to be amusing, it is no more than
wits have done since man first laughed;
If she vivisectsy with an epigram be-
cause she admires the flash OF the
scalpel. it is a privilege of the profess
sion; if she has her prejudices, she
shares the failing with the human race.
Usually the reviewers estimate of a
book Is just, evidently founded on sound
and honest judgment-in nine cases
out Of ten this Is so perhaps, but the
tenth case is the beam in the Chap
Books eye that makes it rather auda-
cious for it to attempt to cast out the
mote from his Brothers eye.
The last issue of the Chap-Book con-
tanned a number ofHeditorial notes on
the unjust reviewer which delighted
US in everything but the self-righteous
attitude Of the editor. The Chap-Book
is quite as often the victim of an au-
thor's reputation as is any other critical
paper, only in its case popularity acts
as a repulsive rather than compul-
S1Ve force.
1t goes to the other extreme. If the
Chap-Book was paid to exploit Mr..
Howells it could not go about Its work
more cleverly.
1.-THE laudatory whoop, purchased
or spontaneous" the Chap-Book aptly
describes as "the inverted libel of false
praise" Is the Chap-Book never guilty
of such libel? Surely few books at
least in it's columns during the last
year were reviewed on other grounds
than those of their own merits. But per-
haps the authors were residents of Chi
cago, and that is merit enough for al
most anything.
If we criticise this self-righteous at
titude of the Chap-Book, it is not with
the desire that its reviewers should
change their methods or that the ed
itor should bow his crested head. y
The Chap-Book would not be the Chap
Book if it's flower of egotism was
cropped, and If the Chap-Book were
not the Chap-Book twice a month we
should mourn it's change Of heart. We
never tell people who live in glass
houses not to throw stones-the sport
is too entertaining when clever people
live within!
