recSlessness in the performance Of duty
and a devotion to principle, all combine
TO make the character a most admirable
one.
With Rudolph Rassendyl as the uu-
DERIVING force Anthony Hope has writ
ten the most charming stories of rO-
nance love and adventure But this
fact is too well known to need repetI I
