AN ANTI-DIVoRcE PoLEMIC.

An Unfinished Divorce, or, Her Better
Self BY Francis D. Galatn The
Cochrane Publishing Co. New York
This story Is avowedly a polcmic
against the prevalent rage for divorce
The couple involved, both being young
and inexperienced, and both determined
on having their own way, shows the
evil effects that may result from IN
consderate rashness. The wife finds,
as she supposes. full evidence Of the
unfaithfuness of her husband. and be-
comes bitter and unrclcuting. However.
the lonely life does not much appeal to
her. either. And the husband, going to
the best source. is told by one of ex-
pericnce:
Jean, ! am an old lady and 7 have
known you ever since you were born. You
have not acted as YOU should towards
your wife. / speak plainly. [ realize as
then YOU are man, and instead OF hay
ing allowed yourself to be blown hither
and firm for the two. y woman wants to
be led and she would submit 10 anything
rather than neglect. In her husband she
seeks a protector and lover in default
of one she will content herself with the
othcr-but ono she must have.
Let your wife feel that your hand is
ever ready. TO defend her, that your
ness. and then even If you fall she Will
never waver in her allegiance. Or be her
lover, stay true TO her and in spite OF
your weaknesses she VIII cling 10 YOU,
She viii regard you i'm the light OF a child,
She may not let you know it, hut such
Will bc her feelings. and she will defend
YOU as q tIgress defends her cubs. Pardon
me- dear boy. have you been either OF
| these 10 your wife?
That also give a good idea Of the
author s style. and OF the sentiment
of the work The wife in the mean
fine has become sensible of the error
Of her unforgiving heart, and writes
to her husband TO ask his forgiveness
for her failure to exercise Christian
charity. The scene closes with the wife
and mother surrounded by her children
waiting the return of the father and the
/ husband The lesson OF the work is n
good one, and it is very faithfully and
fairly inculcated in this work.

sHAKEsPEARE SLAIN AGAIN.

4 Is Shakespeare Dead? From Ny Auto,
biography BY Mark Twain. Published
by Harper & Brothers, New York
~ If Shakespeare isn't dead il mas not
been for the want of killing. But the
most entertaining obscquics that have
ever hcen held on his derease are pre-
scnted here by this pleasant and ia.
nous author. The remarkably small
amount of biographical material avail
sahIe 10 any ono who could undertake
Ito write about Shakespeare is made the
most of in these pages. The fact that
there is no personal tradition that
amounts TO anything. no memorial OF
( his associates. that his death made no
stir in the literary, social. or Official
life of England. or even of Strattord-
on -Avon-all this is dwelt upon with a
perseverance and effect that afford
cumulative circumstance along the
line of argument pursued. And Mark
ranges himself most decidedly on the
side OF the Baconians in the contro-
versy as TO who wrote Shakespeare s
Eplays. He says (pagc 5o):
We All have To do good deal OF as
zun,inC. hut am fairly certain that in
every case l can call 10 mind the Ba..
cori1n assumers have come out ahead
al the Shakespearites. Both parties han
seem TO me to get much more reasonable
and rational and purSuasivo results out OF
ttliem than is the case OF the Shakes
pearites.
And so this witty author proceeds
TO dig another grave for Shakespeare,
md with n good deal of solid insist
fence. as well as humorous repartee. he
piles clods upon The grave. But it is
o vain labor IT is like the "thrcc
Kings into the East who pronounced
John Barleycorn dead, and piled clods
npon his head The result was that
John Barlcycorn sprung up stiff and
ssont. stronger than ever, And so il
will ever be. But after all, ii does
seem incredible that Shakespeare
! Should have written those plays in
view Of the very meagor facts that arc
known about him. Al the same time,
it must be confessed III candor that il
seems equally incredible that Bacon
Should have written them. But then.
tif neither wrote them, who did? And
ttiicre YOU are. 1t is another case OF
5 Dundrcaryism. ''A thing that no fellow
can find OUT Ii is indeed a miracle
that they were written at all.
