DIPLOMATIC ROMANCE.

The Mischief Maker Be e Phillips oppsnhcim
With Iustratons by Hanson Booth Published
by Little Brown. and Company. Booton.
The fertility Of MT. Oppenheim as a
novel writer Is the wonder Of the time.
and no less wonderful Is 1t that he keeps
his work on such a high plane. In this
new novel Mr.. Oppenhcim returns to the
type of story that achieved for him his
greatest popularity-a blending Of love,
romance and diplomatic intrigue. The
publication OF an indiscreet letter writ
ten by Sir Julien Portel. a bachelor mem
her OF the British cabinet, to the wife
OF an ambitious NJ. P. results In Sir
JuIien's resignation and exile in France,
where he Is thrown in with the shrewd
and resourceful arblter Of German poll
tics, Prince Won Falkenberg. The latter is
striving to break down the entente cor
dale existing between France and Eng
land; and SIR Julien. a discarded minis
ter but still a patriot, is not slow to COM
prehend the others plans and seize the
only way possible to combat them. In
the startling occurrences that follow
many interesting characters have i'm
portant parts, including clever journal
list. a French dancer, and an extra aordlnary
American woman. Mr.. Oppenheim has
written nothing more strikingly dramatic
than the climax of this brilliant story of
love and international politics, In which
two strong men match wits against each
other and q woman's words decide the
destinies of nations.

This is a mystery story In which the
mystery seems to deepen up to the very
last There is no clue OF thread whereby
the reader is in the least likely to guess
the outcome, for the plot is so ingeni-
wrought It out with such skill. that the
following of clues is impossible. It is
fairly called "the most absorbing and
battling mystery in years." and there is
no likelihood of anybody solving the mys-
terry before the author gets ready TO
do II.
There is an Introductory appeal to Gil
bert Keith Chesterton, In which the au-
thor dedicates the story to the noted
