PERIwTNKLE: AN IDYL OF THE
DUNES. BY William Faraufar PaXson-
Illustrated by Thomas Fogarty fZmo.
PIP. 500. The Sturgfs & Walton iom-
pany
The merit of this rather brief tale lies
in itse capital sketches of the simple,
sturdy men of our lifesaving service, the
first of whose duties is a constant readi-
ness to risk their lives at a moments
notice. Mr.. Payson admires them and
likes them as they deserve. Hence the
sympathetic quality of his pictures of
their life in days of sunshine and calm,
the strength of his narration of their
heroism amid storm and the dark. Their
environment, too, he draws eloquently,
the stretch of sand between the reced-
ing, advancing margin of the ocean and
the sand dunes with their scanty cover
ing of helm grass, its changes from
.peacefulness to whipping, singing,
binding fury. And, romance though
this be and realism both, he embodies
purpose in his pages, that of pleading
the right of these servants of the en-
dangered seaman to a pension at the end
Of their arduous service. AS for the
romance, it is not unpleasing. The waif
cast I'D by the sea, the adopted daughter
of the stations crew, and the stranger
saved later from the waves, who in time
becomes her wooer, unwelcome to her
friends of old. all this is not new Per-
haps it is an unavoidable part of this
kind of fiction, but it serves it's purpose

wearies the eye and distracts the atten-
ton in it's unrelieved progress. Sonny
himself is now the father Of family OF
his own. which of course occupies much
space in the old gentIemans talk To his
friend. the doctor. The sentiment sounds
true enough, the sentiment Of q heart
that has remained young and in deepest
sympathy with youth. though the head
has grown hoary with age. but the
hurnor is at times a little forced as in
the case of the old mans account Of a
performance of tSalome.'' which he APP

And Ger the land by gentle hand,

When a wandering breeze signs in

A weary world, her banners flrled;
