case giving typical examples of insincerlty

MARCH SMART SET.

In variety and value OF contents the
March number OF The Smart Set is the
best yet issued OF this magazine, which
has established itself as the most import
ant exponent of contemporary fiction.
"Araby," novelette, by the Baroness
Won Hutten, heads the number The
story Is one OF great charm; IL Is as
realistic as romantic, and II conveys in
crisp dialogue and movement vivid pic
lures OF modern life I'm phases as numer-
Gus as are the characters OF the narra-
tive. There Is a lesson In "Araby," and
that a powerful one; but there is, first
and always, the story itself, vital and
human, the story of an unusual passion,
in which the instinct OF the primitive
savage and the conditions of our TWEEN
tieth-century civilization meet and war.
The author has achieved "a work of fiction
at once absolutely distinctive and wholly
fascinating. lt Is one OF the best novel;
cites yet published I'm The Smart Set
In so saying we give IL the highest
praise.
@. We're Tyler contributes a psychology
cal study that is as analytically powerful
as IL is absorbing. entitled "Her Investi-

-tfffmore. Study in Suggestion" is
a remarkable bit of psychological fiction,
by Emma Wolf. Edgar Saltus has writ

liancy, on ''rhe Gaieties of Paris" while
Alfred Henry Lewis, I'm when Whig

summate skill the story OF a victory won
in old days by subtlest finesse. The hu-
NOR OF tbis issue is best illustrated i'm

ciously amusing story OF Monte Carlo
by Emeric Hulme- Beaman: in "Brauser's
Seance," a farcical narrative OF German
student life, by Edward Breck, and I'm
"a Royal Compromise" by Ruth Milne.
There are, i'm addition. the usual number
OF laughable paragraphs and light verses
all displaying that particular merit which
has won for The Smart Set its reputa-
ton as the public's best purveyor of wit
and humor.
The March number contains many
poems OF conspicuous literary merit.

It's Lieut.. Gov. shepley now, and a very
judicious choice the General Assembly

Shepley is recognized as one of Rhode

benefit by the services OF such an. enter
prising and sound public officer. Having
acquitted itself so well in selecting lieu

supplement it's action by submitting TO
the people a constitutional amendment
