A Dainty Heroine.

Book News" says Of Elinor Glyn's
new book:
Like a rare old miniature set in dull
gold. quantity wrought in graceful, an
tique design and jewel-studded. The
Reflections Of Ambrosine" greets our
eyes. Perhaps the dainty frontispiece
suggests the fgure-that frontispiece
Of a beautiful girl painted in delicate,
soft and hazy colors an becomingly
framed in gems.
Mrs. Elinor Clyn is a writer OF unique
attainments. She has refreshing
touch She introduces people OF many
kinds showing that her knowledge OF
the world is not confined within narrow
limits; she always reserves one char
acter for that magnetism which must
and does hold the readers one and all.
"Ambrosine is a French maiden and
reared by a stately grandmother, who
| herself might seem almost to have just
stepped down from an old portrait on
the wall OF a French palace. Many
/ Of the ideas OF this stately woman at
| first appear overdrawn. but exaggera-
tion IS saved by a touching pathos that
/ hOvers over all Brought up TO respect
customs Of etiquette most exquisite in
their 1neness and sensitiveness Of con
ception. Ambrosine is like an echo from
the past, like comtesse. as Sir An
! thony aptly calls her. Of a century be
fore. She is an exact reproduction OF
her ancestor the Marquis de Calincourt.

acter she so earnestly desires 70 emu

The Sun Shines on Dr. Lord.

The New York Sun" 60 it's review
column publishes an estimate OF John
Lords historical work which Is likely
TO shock some OF the faithful readers
Of that conservative historian. but most
OF them viii never see il, because il is
in a Sunday paper. Il is as follows.
Thine was. and not so very long ago.
when history in the United States was
subject for popular entertainment and I'm
the colleges was dealt with by broken
down ministers who were not up 10
teaching the classics or mathematics. II
is true that Prescott and Motley and
Parkman wrote books that no college
thought Of using and which people read
only as literature. History is a solemn
subject I'm our universities now and high
ly specialized. II is studied by more
students probably than any other branch
of knowledge that they teach and has be
come a nursery for monographs and
dissertations on all manner OF learned
and uninteresting points. second only to
sociology and civics. Nobody dreamed
Of that when Dr. John Lord began to
lecture fifty or more years ago.
Those we're the palmy days OF the
lyceums and for forty years the Rev.
John Lord. LII D.. wandered up and
down the land delivering popular hts
torical lectures before young ladies'
seminaries and rural self-improvement
societies. Just as smoOth-voiced lecturers
now entertain similar audiences with eN
plantations OF magic lantern and cinema -
tograph pictures OF foreign lands DR..
LORD lived to a ripe old age, eighty
years and more, when he grew too old
TO lecture he published his lectures in
book form and called them Beacon
Lights OF History.
There were a good many volumes OF
the Beacon Lights OF History. They
are now published in a complete set OF
fifteen volumes, a universal history Of a
sort, by James F. Clarke & Co. Dr.
Lords lectures fill twelve volumes and
part Of the thirteenth: the rest Of that
volume and the fifteenth are filled with
borrowed essays. like DIT. F. II. Hedges
Goethe or articles written to order like
Mayo W. Hazeltine's Herbert Spen
GER and Darwin 10 bring the work uT
TO date. The lectures will provide en-
tertalnment OF a serious kind 10 persons
who have not the energy to read rea
history. They may be recommended al
containing no ideas at which even the
most orthodox could be shocked. il
seems pity that in so large a WORK
space could not be found for a biography
OF DIT. Lord. who marks a curious phas,
in an American civilization that hal
passed by"

A Quaint Character Sketch.

THE Criterion" says OF one Of the
Century ComDany's holiday books:
We have several authors who have
portrayed the Southern negro character
with success. but none that quite equals
Mrs. Stuart IN her perfect mastery OF
both the broad strokes and the delicate
touches. her comprehension of the
pathos as well as the humor. her satire
and her sympathy In Napoleon Jack
son she pictures a negro who so far
makes a dne gentleman Of himself that
he can do no work. but sits I'm a plush
rocking chair and talks cheerful phil
osophy. He is supported by his admir-
ing and Industrious wife. whose explana-
tion Of his. incidence is most original:
He cant work, case his nanny she
marked him so. She had been overwork-
ed befo' he was born, an she marked her
chile for rest. She lowed dat she had
sweated enough for two, an she nuver
raised de mark oh'n i'm. It's a spell
she laid on i'm. 10 amt de labor dat
hurts I'm. it's de thoughts Of it There
are numerous epigrams in the quaint
language Of the ICquacious negress with
an atmosphere OF humor throughout. but
the attentive reader may find in the lit
tie volume a great deal besides the fun.

'Mariella Of Out West" by Ella Hig-
gInson. should secure for its author a
staked-out claim on Mr.. Paul Will
stach's literary map Of The United
States. in the Puget Sound country. for
that is where the scene Of the novel is
laid. and IL is a good novel. and true to
life The heroine is q little country E.rl
Of a bdckvools settlement. who abso:bs

pure and simple. and the author has had
the courage to picture what many peo-
pie Will pronounce impossible, a really
pure and beautiful girl sprung from
squaIid ancestry, saved from mmorali-
~ ana degradation by her own inherent
sense Of refinement and tn innate pro-
/ gressiveness Of the American nature.
What rs good In her parents remains
good in her. and she does not develop the
unattractive traits fostered Ia them by
sordid and vulgar experience.
Mariella's mother is not only vulgar.
but foolish. and not only foolish, but
immoral; her father is a nonentity.
Yet after all, this family is no worse in
point Of morals than those pictured in
some Of the society novels OF the period.
and as far as its influence on the daugh-
ter goes It is in some respects an SIN
provement, for the parents are at any
rate anxious to keep her innocent and
pure. The mother yields TO temptation
herself. but she would be the last to
counsel any such course in her daugh-
/ ter. She is vain and common, but she
l is not cynical nor cold-bloOded The
merciless realism Of the earlier chap
/ ters Of the story may be little too
much for the ordinary reader, but It is
| good literature all the same. There is
no sense in holding mp to admiration
/ the unshrinking methods OF TolstOy and
Zola. and abusing American novelists
who use the same methods with more
/ purpose.
A strong character in the book is
Mariella's farmer lover. HIS charac-
ter is well drawn throughout. though his
herois:n at the end may seem TO some
\ a little oyerdrawn. Ii would be an im-
i Dossihle niece Of business perhaps. in
/ any other country but this. but in some
/ respects American life is not like that
OF the older civilizations. and one Of
/ these differences lies in tie attitude Of
| the American workingman toward his
women folk Altogether. the author Ets
/ done a good piece Of work, and while it
has its crudiues. it is a sign Of some
thing finer in the future. (New York:

Mrs. craigie's view Of BaIzac.

Mrs. Craigie John oliver Hobbes) in
recent lecture on Balzac, said Of the
great novelist's methods:
1T was his habit 20 write three OF
four books al time. This method
which has been and is followed by all
great painters. is beyond question the
right one. II is the one sure safeguard
against veiled autobiography, which is
the fatal danger to those who conceu-
trate for TOO long a period on any one
group Of characters and any one par
tiCuIar set Of scenes. Balzac's novels
are. therefore. well balanced. They are
always impersOnal. always just. and in
order TO describe life one must show.

spirit OF criticism. but strong sense

more or less a repetition Of her first
and best book. Cape Cod Folks" The
person who tells the story is a small
boy. and the heroine is a young village

The best bit Of character drawing In
it is that of the hired man. Ellis. who
tells the small boy about a mythical
place called KiIburn City. in which
everybody has all kinds Of a good time
and which he himself once found. after
a severe battle with two wildcats. But
as he further explains:

the reasons for the decline Of the vogue

evidence Of the fact that when woman

Of Victorian art, she gently, even rev
