one would hardly expect from the designer
of this amazing scheme the simplicity and no
biIity Of the Banqueting House in Whitehall.
But if Jones could improvise a decorative fabric
for the stage he could also work out with
Vitruvian scholarship and Palladan elegance
a homogeneous monumental edifce. He had
remarkable sense of proportion, which showed
itself in the arrangement Of masses and in the
distribution of ornament; he had, too, a most
refined taste, so that ornament with MN was
Just what the word implies and nothing more,
never a feature elaborated for its own sake
Here is where we are thankful for the careful
drawings in this book The authors bring out
in their plates the salient virtues of Jones's
work placing in the foreground his ideas of
balance and of refinement carried almost TO the
point Of austerity. Sometimes he was a little
heavy as in the FACADE Of Castle Ashby and
in some of his entrances; sometimes in interior
designs, as in the big fireplace and the door
way in Wilton House. both figured here, he
lacked grace. But his most characteristic work
IS singularly well ordered, conveying an i'm
preston of delicate distinction at the same
time that it has a certain grandeur, as in the
Banqueting House aforesaid, or in the staircase
of Ashburnham House.

From the novel OF modern life. however skill
fully written it may happen to be. 1t is some
times pleasure to turn to some book which Is
so remote in its theme and so fantastic in Its
atmosphere to seem to have no relation TO
the actual life of any period in the history OF
the world The AsSassns' is such a story as
extraordinary in its incidents as tale out OF
the Arabian Nights, but. perhaps for that very
reason, unusually entertaining. The reader who
takes it up would 90 well TO put out Of his mind
all expectation of mere crcdbity and to yield
himself to the enjoyment of altogether amazing
things. In the middle Of the plot sits the Old
Man Of the Mountain the grand master OF that
order OF assassins in the East whose
speakable practices more than one novelist has
found it profitable to lnscr. The hero is a
young Arab who is selected by his chief, the
monster aforesaid. to proceed TO the camp Of
Saladin and slay that sultan after having
Worned himself into his confidence. Hassan's
courage is duly tested at the outset in inter
view which affords the author an opportunity
to draw clever picture Of the citadel Of the
ass,Lssins with its pits Of terror its mysterious
Passages. its deadly master and his servants.
Mr. Meakn is clever. too IN his account Of the
earthly paradise into which Hassau is intro
duced, under the impression that he is in
Heaven indeed. and from which he is presently
torn to be sent on his mission of murder but
not befor" he has fallen IL love with one Of the
houris. He is long in reaching the critical mo-
NEST Of his career in which ne is to make up
his mind once for all whether the behest Of
the OLD Man Of the Mountain is to be carried
out or not; but the reader is kept amused by
descriptions Of battles between the Crusaders
and the Sultan's troops Hassan's private ad-
ventures deity interviewer with these cpl
sodes, and, in fact. from beginning to end Mr.
Meakn crowds his pages with spectacular and
grim occurrences. The last chapter. one is sure
Will contain just the climax for which one has
been looking; but a matter of fact the
author here gives his narrative a turn which
is as surprising it is artistic.
The hero of "Stcphon Calinari" begins bv ex
citing dislike through his intense egotisn. but
ends by leaving much more favorable fupras-
sion. He is half English and half Greek We
