The first story, In which the German
servant proCures a husband through an
advertisement is very good; the stolidity
Of the couple IL brought out well. There
are some good descriptions and the idea
on which the story is based is amusing.
The efforts to confuse the reader that
follow, however, take out much Of the
interest It might have had and the incidents
are childish and at times not in the best
taste. The effort 20 be funny at any cost
