THE JUNE SMART SET"

The Smart Set for June opens with Q novelette by Gertrude Lynch, entitled The Fighting Chance" This story is as interesting as it is valuab ble. 1t pre- sents q vivid picture of phase in the life Of an honest statesman, and the theme is treated with great skill by an author whose personal experiences en- able her to write luminousiy oi depart ment life in Washington. The love iII- terest in the story is fascinating. while the plot is absolutely distinctive, as original as il is satisfying. Beyond all this there is the charm of very clever dialogue which permeates the novel, cite.
 The short stories are of great variety out all very human and all of the best literary standard. A notable story cf the most romantic type is The Free Of Love-" by Justus Miles Forman: An Indisc-eet Divorce by Waiter F. Gro gan. is Q most diverting bit of humor while Madame Bo-Peep, of the Ranches" by Q. Henry. is a pure love story. altogether delightful. there is also most striking story by john Reg n&ult Ellyson. entitled A Swirl of Dust Caroline Duer contributes :'e- nlarkably clever play in one act. MT. Shakespeare at School.' and there are articles that entertain and inform in equal measure: The Troubles of the Prince" by Alfred Henry Lewis, and --The Power Of Woman by Henry Col lins Walsh.
 Again the Smart Set is distinguish ad by the number and merit of the poets contributing. Among them are Madi- son Cawein, Harriet Prescott Spofford Josephine Preston Peabody. Theodosia Garrison. Susie NJ. Best, Clinton Scol- lard and Gelett Burgess

 The " Double BarrelleQ Detective Story" is the most elaborate of bur- lesques on detective fiction. with stril1- ing melodramatic passages, in which it is difficult to detect the deception, sc ably is il done. As for the para graph which has so admirably illus 1 trated the skill of Mir. Clemens ensem- bie and the c2releSsness Of readers. here it is:

But it was so ingeniously written that Mark, relating the history years later, in an article which appeared in that excellent magazine of the past, the Galaxy, declared that no one ever found out the joke, and, if we remam- Der right, that that astonishing old mockely was actually looked for in the region where he as a Nevada newsDa- per editor, had located it.
