SOME SAY HER BEST QUALITY
Popular Author Imparts Delight
full Air of Familiarity to 1.-The
Window at the White Cat"
Knows Whereof She Writes

Critics quarrel over what consti-
tutes the most attractive features of
Mrs. Rinehart's stories. She Is so
versatile and many-sided that there
is plenty of opportunity for lively
debate Some point to the analyti-
cal skill with which she builds up a
complicated plot of puzzhng mys..
terry as in The Circular Staircase"
and The Window at the White Cat"
Others comment on the spontaneous
when a Man Marries'' and THE
Window at the White Cat" One re-
ward with the theory, which he
maintains with much show of rea-
son. that the happiest feature of her
writings is their domesticity. Rather
startling for a teller of thrilling de-
She does not depict the 'Cotters
Saturday Night, with the peculiar
reverence of Bobby Burns, nor is
there the overdone /sentimentality of
Hermann and Dorothea.' She paints
truly happy American household
with strictly modern happenings of
lost caps before sehool-going, of in
sistence upon toys and other Juvenile
ways, together with the sportive in
fled with each other"
Certainly Mrs. Rinehart never
struck this note of wholesome ia
miliaritg with such pleasing effect
Cat" her latest and most popular
story. The book abounds in little
touches of married life in it's joyous
character. So ponderous a states
man as Daniel Webster is known to
have confessed the soothing infiu-
ence of a woman's stroke upon his
forehead. Mrs. Rinehart says: "One
or the sanest men / ever met went
to his office and proposed to his
photographer in sheer craving for
domesticity, after watching the wife
of ono of his friends run her hands
over her husbands chin and give him
shaved" mo
Whoever knows Mrs. Rinehart
knows that the delightful domestic
city of her novels is only the re-
Election of her own happy home life.
Her three lively boys are her real
masterpieces and the center of her
interest, not her literary produc-
lions: They scamper into the pages
of all her stories. The boys will go
along when she and DIR. Rinehart
travel abroad this fall The doctor
is to pursue special medical studies
at Vienna and Mrs. Rinehart Is to
labor on new comedy novel.
Meanwhile The Window at the
White Cat" withNits mystery and its
fun and its mote of domesticity."
has become the best selling book in
America. "

sport at Bayonne, N. J., but no

unique class of fishermen. The
thieves chopped a hole in the roof
of Henry Meyerholz' hennery and
used the crab net so effectively
that they soon had scooped out

THINGS THAT WILL INTEREST in THE REALM (
fashions

Every new gown with the high
waist line has sash or girdle of
some sort.
Sleeves show more fullness at
the top and less length.
Colors generally are less vivid,
and black is to be much worn.
TUNES are quite long and are
edged with heavy fringe of silk or
beads.
Hand bags are often made to
match the gowns with which they
are carried.
In dressy gowns it is thought
that the high or empire waist line
will again be popular since some
of the latest models show that ten
dency.
Corset models for this season
show no radical changes in their
general lines. The stiff, straight
lines have given place to moderate
curves. The long skirt, with its
many hose supporters, is an ever
present feature.
Crepes of various kinds are well
to the fore for dainty costumes
and a crepe season is expected
jacquard, Persian, -brocaded and
general fancy effects, especially In
scarfings, are all equally favored
Plaid taffeta waists are as usual
in good demand, and those of pop
lin, satin, messaline, various
crepes and more sturdy fabrics
are expected to have greater
demand the coming season than
for some time past.
