Havre, it appears, with little doubt
will this year be the center Of concen-
tration of at least 10000 troops.
These will be the regular soldiers OF

Professor Herford's final estimate is
that Browning's poetry is one of the
most potent of the influences which
helped TO break down the mischievous
distinctions between the sacred" and
the secular" and set in its place the

romance OF the greenwood. The
Dryad." recently published by the
Harpers, has been produced for copy
right purposes at the Theater Royal.
Margate- The essential quality OF
Justin McCarthy's romances has al
ways been dramatic and IT would not
be surprising II The Dryad" should
find its way to the stage, as did The
Proud Prince" and Were King"
1t is Mr.. McCarthy's custom to drama
tize his own novels and The Dryad'
affords material for an idyllic stage
romance. The setting OF the novel be-
ing first the heart of the deep woods
and then the glittering court Of the
Duke of Athens, very beautiful stage
effects would be possible. Theater-
goers would find an unusual and
charming heroine in the person OF a
dryad, the last Of the immortals.
In the current Harper's Weekly Miss
Edith Abbott replies to the not uncom-
mon assertion that business women,
speaking generally, are failures. One
of the reasons given for this assertion
/ is the fact that the average earnings OF
the woman in business are less than a
dollar day. To prove that this state
ment IS unwarranted, Miss Abbott cites
statistics TO prove that. In a typical
industry. the women who received more
than IS week constituted S6,951 out
of the 121, ,443 women employed, or more
than 20 per cent OF the whole number.
Incidentally, she notes the surprising
fact that there are more than 100000
women wage-earners in the United
States. OF whom less than half are en-
gagged In domestic service.

NOTES OF AUTHORS
AND THEIR BOOKS

Mrs. Gertrude Atherton, since her re-
turn from Europe last November, has
been living in seclusion at the Tavern
of Tamalpais, Mount Tamalpais, Cal.
engaged in writing a novelette, for The
Smart Set Magazine. The story will
be entitled "The Travelling Thirds" and
deals with the adventures OF a party
of Americans and an English captain
who travel third-class through Spain
so that they may come In closer con-
tact with the people. In order to get
personal impressions and the proper
local color for this story the author
herself recently toured Spain In third
class compartments and says that she
enjoyed the experience immensely.
From Mount Tamalpais Mrs. Ather-
ton has just arrived in New York,
where she will spend fortnight put
ting the finishing touches to her now
elette. and then she will sail for Mu-
mich. where she resided for time, and
where she has decided to make her per-
manent home.

Thurston of his wife's successful
novel, THE Masquerader," which was
published in England under the same
title as the play. Mr.. Thurston at first
endeavored to avoid the difficulty of
finding two men Of similar appearance
by never permitting the two char
acters. Chilcote and Loder, to appear
on the stage at the same time. but
George Alexander, who will play the
part Of John Loder. decided that the
strength of the drama would be less

Since the creative thought conceals
From mortal eyes the history

One of the pretty little books from
Paul Elders is called THE Blue Mon
day Book" and is a compilation and
artistic arrangement by Jennie Day
Haines. Now the origin of Blue Mon
day Is explained to be from an old
Bavarian custom OF decorating the
churches In blue on the Monday be-
fore Lent. It has come to mean in these
days the Mondays on which we have
the blues. Among men who have to
do very toilsome and disagreeable
work / have heard the blueness of
Monday explained by the expression
that its hard to pull up against cold
collar" and that expression is ex-
planned by the fact that a horse will
much more determinedly balk at a
heavy load after a long rest and his
collars consequently cold. So Sundays 8
rest makes Mondays return to toll
provokingly blue.
Now heaven be praised, in this lit
tie book "a specific remedy for each
of these blue-letter days is provided. -
That is for every Monday in the year
there is a beautiful quotation, the
reading OF which at the days beginning
will drive away the blues and prevent
baking. Now, to-morrow's one of
those blue Mondays, and whoever is
needing this notification may expert
ment as to the efficacy Of the scheme
by taking the mental medicine provided
for the third blue Monday In April:

Another OF the booklets Is called
Love" and is a compilation by Paul
Elder of some of "the best that has
been thought and said In the world
about this greatest of the three highest
things. It wisely both begins and ends
with some OF the superlative words
that Saint Paul said about 1t. and one
Of the best sentences in the midst Of 1t
is this from Addison. ''Yea. even the
eternal farewell is robbed of half Its
bitterness when uttered in accents that
breathe love to the last sigh"
A third is called Good Things and

nominally recipes for cookery. Is really
a purveying to man OF that food needed
from the fact that he cannot live by
bread alone; and thus after telling how
to make Poor Mans Pudding:
