for Memories of Vailima" by Isobal Strong
and Lloyd Osbourne Charles ScrDiner's
Sons) When the complete edition Of Steven-
sons Works was issued and a biography
authorized by the family and written by a
gentleman they had selected appeared
II wa natural for the subscribers to expect
that everything worth printing had been
turned In by them and everything worth
saying had been told. There Is nothing
however, to prevent the people who gath
erred about Stevenson In his last years, and
whose chief business seems to be to keep
alive the cult Of Louis" from writing as
many books Of "Reminiscences" as they
choose.
In this volume Mrs Strong's chief contri-
button Is -vailima Table Talk" extracts
from a diary she kept, mainly dealing with
bits Of talk while she was taking down Isl,
Ives from dictation. There is more of the
diary that she holds back. Perhaps some
day we may have the real story Of Steven
sons last days. Mr. Osbourne limits him
self to -Mr. Stevenson's Home Life at
Vailima," home life on which residents
in Samoa at the time may shed more light
II is a pretty idyl that Mrs. Strong writes
about -Pola." the little Samoan boy of whom
they made pet. But We have seen indig-
nant letters in Samoan newspapers about
the treatment of little Pola when the Steven
son family had tired of him and of Samoa.

There is more catarrh in this sec

last few years was supposed to be

and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it
incurable. Science has proven ca
tarrh to be constitutional disease,

far from being two years ago. There
Is not only a feeling that factional diff
ferences should be avoided. but thanks
, to the President and the growing iden-
tification of the party with the cause
of good government. fractional troubles
do not exist in any drastic or general
form. Here and there a ward contest
makes talk, but in the end all agree
that. when the final test comes at the
polls, every Republican will do his best
for the whole ticket.
This feeling of unity is widely accept
ed as a forerunner of electoral success.

which wise Republican choice of can

producing the political effect which
every friend of good government de-

But let not the truth of the situation
produce feeling of over-confidence.
