The Nicaraguan government purposes

invalidated by events in the future. Indeed,
Messrs King and Okey find much in the present

There was no particular footing of trumpcts
when Miss Dix's clever novel came out but a
goodly blast might we'll have been pardoned.
For t is an excellent story. far above the run
of current historical novels produced in this
country 1t is full of "go" and as unaffected
as it is animated. It's construction is workman
like, and it's characters realized for with
a touch both light and strong 1t has some
anachronisms, no doubt, but nevertheless it has
no rival among recent American romances i'm the
vividness with which early Colonial life is
set forth Kit Ferringham the young English
Cavalier, who seeks refuge in his broken fort
unes among his Puritan kin in New England, is
a gallant and picturesque figure, faulty enough
to be natural, though he is a womans hero
His humorous audacity strikes fire in contact
with the straight laced laws of the colony, and
this leads to complications and situations which
the author has used with highly dramatic skill
and spirit Altogether the story deserves cor
dial praise

employ the element of diaboIic mystery. and,

properly thrilling tale and genius this writer
has not. Where she is most at home and most
pleasing is in the drawing of generous and
