the latter as an especially lovely place Tor

do with the story, which is very good
one, probable absorbing and cleveriy told.
One of the bonanza kings, who has fallen
on evil days and Is supported partly by
his daughters jams and marmaades ana
partly by loans from friends of his pros
perity, does not hesitate to borrow freely
from the rich man who loves Viola, and
Viola finds 1t out. Psychologicaily, the
most interesting part of the book Is about
John Gault's indecisions and doubts as
to whether Viola knows of these loans.
An ideal hero of romance would never
have doubted, but San Francisco club life
does not seem to hcighten the ideal traits

cious and very properly suffers for his

Good Short Stories.

Through Old-Rose Glasses" bv Mary
Tracy Earle, is a collection of short stories
of the South, exquisite both in feeling and
in manner. Their peculiar quality is rare
In fiction and far from common in life To
turn over the pages of the book is like
opening chests of delicate linen preserved
in lavender. The Southern gentlewoman
of the old type. as Thomas Nelson Page
and Miss Earle draw her, is unspeakably
attractive and convincing. That she did.
and. in remote districts, still does exist We
know from our own emotions before her
literary presentments. Anything so good
must be true,
There are other types of womanhood in

"In Cupid's Garden" is a volume OF
novel and piauant love stories by Ellen
Thornycroft Fowler. 1t IL most I'M
usual thing for an Englishwoman to be
able to write a short story We might
say. rather, for a person English born.
The only really good British short story
writers. according to American and
French standards, are Kipling, Barry Pain
mind seems to lack an appreciation of the
fact that short story is something more
than chunk cut out OF long story
Miss Fowler, however, has evidently
grasped the idea and set herself to find
out how the thing is done. with the result
that each OF these little tales has a def
mite, interesting and sufficient motive.
Regarded as love stories they show phases
or the perversity of human emotion not
often touched upon. In one of them a man
who escapes marrying a shrew continues
to worship through life the memory OF
her sweetness; woman who marrfes a
smart-looking but no-account man con-
tinues to prefer his hashy exterior In later
years to the solid worth of the admirable
man she had Tilted because his boots and
neckties were impossible. Cupid. indeed.
as Miss Fowler sees him. IS a humorist
and something of cynlc. and. like most
elderly cynics his stories are worth hear
ing.
