There is no lack OF spice in this book.

finds vast amount OF humbuggery and
folly everywhere. She expresses herself
pungently on Christian Science Hyp-

humbugs. charity humbugs, political hum
bugs and all the rest. She has very
pronounced opinions on all topics. and Of
course. In saying so much. says many
things with which her readers will not ell
agree. For example. she says that the
theatrical profession must not be con-
demned. because II wins millions Of iol-
lars year for the feeding of thousands

just as dear to their actor parents as
