Mr.. Johnson's new novel gains peculiar in
terest from the fact that the pictures Of life
in Paris in the time of the Revolution which
it contains, drawn with special reference to
those who bore a more or less humble relation
to the events of that tragic epoch. The heroine
is a poor flower girl and her lover is young
man who though raised TO fortune in later
days as an epilogue informs US, remains
throughout the action of the story on the same
plane with Nicole 1t is true that names Ia
nous in the annals of the Revolution appear
in these pages, but the author has had the good
judgment to avoid that ceaseless exploitation
of historic figures which often betrays the
writer of historical romance into artifice and
anticlimax. Even when certain memorable
episodes introduced. they are so treated

has plainly been written with appreciation of
those recent historians who have tried to show
that even in the days of the Terror Paris was
not in every nook and Granny, place of lurid
nightmare. The daily perils Of the period are
given their full value, but the aspect of city
in which unnumbered executions could not rob
the people of their gayety or keep them from
their accustomed tasks is also faithfully pre-
served The balance between the love interest
in the story and the historical motive is well
kept Nowhere does Mr.. Johnson better show
his aptitude than in the development of his con-
cIusion. He gives us there precisely the stroke
needed to round out his drama in artistic fash
ion and to illustrate the characteristic tendency
of n romance of the period with which he deals
He has grouped a number of interesting types
around his principal actors, and has put them
all through their PAGES in narrative that is
rs spirited as it is picturesque.
The opening story in The Bell in the Fog"
shows Mrs. Atherton in a vein to which her
talents hardly seem suited She tells US of a
man who fans IN love with a couple OF PORTRAITS,
and she represents him as soon passing through
some curious experiences as the result of his
infatuation. The intention, We infer, is 20 give
the reader a delicate SILVER to make him aware
Of elements in the situation described which are
mysterious and fantastic. Somehow the shiver
fails u arrive. Neither the imagination of the
author nor her mere literary skill, is effective
enough really to startle Us with i sense Of
things strange and impressive The Striding
Place is equally disappointing, and in The
Dead and the Countess we have an uncom-
