Whitman, not at all as though he was
disposed to damn her, the rumor.
doubtless we'll founded, was what we have
heard.
The story goes on to study these two
moods by which George Hood was dis
tineuished, and to relate what happened
in consequence Of them. There Is chapter
about Hoods father, from which 1t nay be
gathered that the elder Hood was man Of
stern nature and q man likely to prefer
that bis son shonld marry an heiress rather
than a gipsy. There Is chapter entitled
sPoor Gracia!' Graoia being the namc OF
Hoods gipsy wife. Still another chapter
1, entitled George Hoods Second Marriage,
and surely that title carries good deal
OF illumination. Other titles tell US Of
return from honeymoon, OF a soothing Of
the sea, OF a wife and her husband. Of the
bonds OF matrimony. Of fumes Of oblivion
of the second Mrs. Hood, of remorse, OF exc
plantations, Of a felony. and Of the hand OF
death. Surely the reader will make out from
these something OF what happened In the
case of George Hood; but just az surely he
will want to read the book itaelf, and. in this
desire We have no wish to deter him. OF
course there Is a problem, but lis decently
and sensitively treated. and the story has
cleyerness and other computations.

Home and the World.

There is no real home in which the
cry of the unhappy is not heard. mol
Is there any true heart beside which
the sorrows of the world do not sit
This is at once the pathcs of life and
its richness as well; for the Joy OF
personal happiness, untouched by the
sorrows Of the world. is a vain and
heartless thing. In every home the
wide world lies reflected in its mani
fold relations, its varied occupations
its diverse temperaments; and. as the
high-walled garden is but a part OF
the wide landscape under sky which
knows no earthly boundaries. and
shines alike on the rarest orchid and
the commonest weed. so the fortunes
Of the home are bound up with the
fortunes of humanity.
