plaything of a whimsical fate that
mingled tragedy and adventure and
laughter and failure and success in
swift following sequence. .. Pr
The very preparation for the writ

travelling half way round the world

What intimate suggestion, what
wise and frivolous comment what
charm of living quality this has given
to the work, only he who reads may

with the soft radiance OF delectable

laughter new kind, a new name.
Il is the fun OF love, OF lridiscent love;
the delicate tracery of coquetry,
its text to lean-upon-and-keep your
umor-dry--a story that sings itself
into ones heart.
1t ought 10 have been written in

ter and its fun. beyond the. moonlight
OF its tender witchery. there glows the
passionate feeling, the ardent woorng,
the daring-naked and unashamed-
which marks the dawn OF palpitant
first love.

seems Unfair even to hint at this

reading here, much honest indignation
and an amazing amount Of bad taste in
the frequent reactions of its char
actors from earthly passion TO relig-
ious eXaltation. The note throughout

much more human plot in his latest

His heroine is a young Boston matron
who thinks she can defy the conven-
tons on account OF her youth and So
cial position. and finds that even those
guarantees are not sufficient TO save
her from the consequences OF her fool
ish conduct. As study of a Eighty
Young fool OF woman who drags
her two best friends down into the
morass OF a sordid-seeming scandal
Mr. Orcutt has drawn fine sketch in
his Mrs. Spencer. Her conduct IS apt

desire to shake her, which is the best
proof Of the reality OF her personals
