MIDDLE-AGED LOVE STORIES. By Josephine
B Daskam. New York: Charles scribner's
Sons Minneapolis: N. Mccarthy Price,
$l.25.
Miss Daskam has charming way Of
saying just SO much and leaving the read :
er to imagine many things. This is the
test OF finished 4short-story writer. In
these stories she presents phase Of loving
OF a most interesting characterize low
ing Of the middle-aged. Past the fresh
ness OF dewys youth and the trenulous
warmth Of youthful passion, the middle
agesloving is supposed to be rather cold
and calculating, but Miss .Daskam shows
that this is not always the case. and she
is right. The fact Is the heart of a woman
between the age of 80 and 40 is far more
sensitive to the, touch Of the rosy god s
fingers than during her earlier years. In
the first story, ''The Valley of the
Shadow, which in some respects suggests
q solemn funeral dirge, the trained nurse
with two brown eyes set in fresh pink
face framed by dark hair lightly sprinkled
with gray" proved g power beyond the
strength Of Belden to resist; in fact, the
| two brown eyes had haunted his thoughts
ever since he first saw them. Then we
have other middle age tales, as "a Phil
anthropist.'' "a Reversion to Type" "A
