She has learned that q lady may be attractive. wen charming, at any age. But the American new woman has an advan- taCe over the British one. In theJJni- led Kingdom all births must be regis tered. Here that is not necessary ex- rent in some of our large cities.
 On the whole. thereIore. it is more Sortunate for the new woman to be born in the States.
 Sarah Grands maiden name was Clarke. Her father was a lieutenant In the British navy. Her mothers name was Sherwood. When she was years old her father died, and her mother packed up Sarah and the other children and went back to the Sher- wood home in Yorkshire England.

It throws a rarely beautiful light around the woman who is one of the most powerful nction writers of her time.
 It was one of her stepsons who. in connection with her own son, helped the author to print The Heavenly Twins" She herself had published her first story, "Ideala." which Rusl<in had turned down. Discouraged by RusL<in's $ unfavorable verdict. Sarah Grand had let 'Ideala' lie in manuscript in her desk for seven years. Then she reread II, decided it to be q good story and had 1t printed at her own expense. It was an instant success and made her well known. Then she wrote The Heaven ly Twins spent two years on 1t. after which she tried 1t on the leading pub fishers of England and was refused. Again she decided on her own work that IL was a good story. and she de termined to publish 1t, too.

Sarah Grand had been working, waiting. knocking years and years at the doors of success. and now 1t all came in a minute. No novel written in a genera ton excited more discussion.
