Anna Chapin Ray has won new lau- rels in her Hearts and Creeds," ($1.50) just published by Little, Brown and Company Boston. It is a more ambi- tious work than any of her previous books, all of which have won success, and Hearts and Creeds" is a winner in its broader field of literary endeavor. Of it the New York World says
 Hearts and Creeds" is strong enough to survive any number of mere books of the hour" The New York Herald says: There is g good deal of kindly feeling in the novel and wise discrimi- nation of character and careful atten- ton to local color" The New York Tribune says quoted in full:
 Anna Chapin Ray returns again to her favorite Quebec for the scene of her latest novel Hearts and Creeds'' marks an advance in the authors syn thetic and narrative powers over her story, By the Good Sainte Anne.' The present volume is careful study of re- ligious, social and political conditions in the provincial capital, with it's strongly contrasted types of French Catholic and English Protestant Canadians. The contrast is accentuated in this instance by the marriage of rising young French Canadian politician of the best class and of irreproachable morals and lineage with a fascinating but head strong young woman of Quebec's most exclusive English social set. The eff forts of the two, mostly negative on the part of the bride, to adjust themselves to the peculiar conditions imposed by their union form the basis of the story and are used by the author as a reflec- tion of the prevailing political sltua- tion. Miss Ray offers no solution of the problem presented by the existence or the two racially and religiously anti thetical elements in the canadian polity but the story, at least, affords a truth

A jolly story, capital for the leisure hour is "The Sea Maid," by Ronald Macdonald, published by Henry Holt and Company. (($1.O0) It is bright, engaging, absorbing romance. The opening scenes are laid in England, but the main portion of the story relates to some English people, notably the Dean of Beckminster and his wife and only daughter, who are shipwrecked and cast away on an unknown island" in the South Seas, there to remain for twenty years unheard of by the world and dead to the world" indeed. An other notable is a young and handsome earl who sails away in a tramp steamer to find to his dismay a discarded sweet heart on board who still admires him.
 A meeting occurs and the upshot is that the earl and various of the other passengers find themselves landed on the aforementioned .unknown island, where old friends, the dean and his wife and the aforementioned lovely daughter greet them. The story is full of happy surprises, and there are be- side the two sets of castaways, plots and subterfuges and charming love making and humorous situations and adventures galore, The Sea Maid" ought to be one of the best sellers.

full and entertaining picture of the sit uation as it stands. In her interpreta- tion of it the French Catholics are cer- tainly shown in the more favorable light, If only in the more graceful cour- tesy with which they maintain their convictions and traditions. The story suffers somewhat from the unsympa- thetic nature of the heroine and from the sometimes too minute particularly with which the author unfolds the com plexities of local politics. If there re- mains an impression that the two cen tral characters have been to a certain extent artificially contrived for the purpose of the novelist, no such sug- gestion can be entertained in regard to the other personages, who are pleasant ly natural types"

 "The Nonchalante," by Stanley 0lm- stead, published by Henry Holt & Co.,, is a somewhat exasperating book inas much as the author just touches the i border line of making a brilliant book and halts there. The authors subtitle is Casual Data Touching the Career of Dixie Bilton, Aperettensangerine at Bellmar." The scenes are laid in Plissestadt, a German university town. Dixie Bilton is young American girl studying vocal music with view to a stage career. On the outside of the books cover it is recorded that 'The Nonchalante" is "a highly temperament tai tale of American students in Ger man university town. The heroine, who oddly combines nonchalance with mu- sical ability, is a fascinating and un- usual woman. Her fondness for new experiences has pretty serious results for two men,"
 Dixie Bilton is indeed a fascinating and unusual woman, and not schem- CT, but somehow there is not enough of her and the story; attractive and read able as it surely is, it is slightly sketch ed. As has been well said on this point: The author knows his Dresden thor oughly, there can be no doubt of that; he knows the Americans resident there quite well, and he knows the natives indeed, he knows them, their ways of looking at life and of living, their lib- er&l views here, their narrow provincial practices there. He had at hand, when he sat down to write, all the material needed for an elaborate picture of the intersection of German ways and Amer ican manners and views-be has also a clever knack of saying things in a striking way-and yet he has failed be- cause he has not gone far enough.
 The author has indeed sketched with a sure touch certain phases of life in a German university town, and the in- trigues and jealousies of professional singers. It may be stated that Dixie Bilton hailed from Providence, R, l., whence she went to Germany with a rich, gentle and lovable young man who was intensely in love with her, and thereby Dixie spoiled her reputation at home, though it appears she did not overstep the boundary line between vir- tue and dishonor. The characters of Lewes, the American postgraduate who falls desperately in love with Dixie, and of Fraulein Mitteline, head colora- tura at the Plissestadt Opera, whose stage popularity is failing, are the best drawn. The authors satire and pun gent comment are very good at times. The work is we'll worth reading; S1.50; at all bookstores.

THE NEW PUBLICATIONS
SOME OF THE LATEST BOOKS
 OF THE SEASON

"The Genius," Margaret Potter's Story
 of Russian Life-"The NOnchaIante,"
 by Stanley OImstead-"Hearts and
 Creeds," by Anna Chapin Ray-''The
 Sea Maid" by Ronald Macdonald.
 One of the new books of the season of surpassing interest is Margaret Pot ter's powerful story of Russian life, "The Genius" published by Harper & Brothers. A little less proliXity here and there would have improved it, but it is a work of rare strength and ab- sorbing interest, and will add to the authors fame as a literary artist. It gives evidence of most careful and con- scientious work and abounding pains taking research, and it's tone is digni- fled, it's insight into human motives and character excellent. It is announced to be the first of "trilogy of destiny which will pertain to Russian life. The authors initial success was her 'Istar of Babylon" a vivid Biblical romance, and she has shown her talent in a wide range of fiction. "The Genius" is a striking presentation of the artistic temperament in phases of special in- terest The story is based upon the life of a famous Russian composer-the sen- sitive, gifted son of powerful, iron handed government official. The scenes are laid chiefly in Moscow or vicinity. The father of Ivan, the hero of the story, was a prince not Of the old blood. Because of his father-his mother is of the ancient order and has made mar riage of policy-he is denied the hand of the one girl in the world. His dis appointment leads him first to an act of folly and then to the bitterness of a life long renunciation. He has close associ- ations with the Rubinsteins. For few months he has friendships unawares with Nihilists. The period of the book extends from 1S40 to 1S90
 But it will mar the readers interest to disclose the entire fabric of this ad- mirable story which easily takes rank as one of the strongest romances that has appeared in a twelve-monthi $1.5O; at the Pease, Lewis company's.
