"ANNE.. ACTRESS.


 & Co, Publishers. New York.
 In "Anne, Actress Juliet c. Sager has written very unusual story, which has gripping sort of interest and philos- cphy all through it, and which is never dull for a single moment
 Two totally different philosophies of life are vitualized in the story-one being that of the country doctor, James Wal lace, and his unselfish devotion. while the other is exemplified in the woman lerself-Anne. the neurotic, the brilliant the over-ambitious, and who is saved from destruction, only through her love for her daughter.
 Much has been said Of the perils con fronting the inexperienced young girl coming to New York to go on the stage but Anne. Actress shows for the first time the dangers in the path of the young 6ramatist. How the experienced actress can campaign for a role she likes by pulling wool over the eyes of the inn questionable playwright, and what him drances to his success stage rivalries may produce, are interestingly shown by Miss Sager's novel. All aspiring dramatists- and weary managers would say that in cludes everybody should read it.
 Miss Sager has had experience on the stage from touring the country in "one night stands to playing big roles in the large cities. Although she has now re- tired from the boards. she considers the acting profession one of the most fasci- hating open to women, in spite of all it's disillusions and liscouragements. She believes however, that no girl should rush into it without first thoroughly arm ing herself with information and train- ing. as the question of whether it is suit able as d profession can be decided only by careful consideration of each indi- vidual case.
 The book abounds in rare humor and epigramatic diction among other bright examples being some statements as fol- lows: W

'.The Castaways." which may be taken as typical of the collection. isethe story of a fil!bustering expedition to Cuba, led by Captain 0 Shea, on the steamer Fearless. On board were a large supply of arms and ammunition, a. company of Cuban patriots returning to fight for their na- tive land and three castaways who had been picked up by the Fearless from drifting boat. There were, of course, the officers and crew. but 1t was the unseem- ly combination of the rest of the cargo, human and otherwise, that brought the captain into perils and perplexities with out number. A series of exciting events ensued. They were pursued by Span lsh cruiser, wrecked in a fierce battle and finally grounded on reef and be- sieged by another Spanish war vessel. It is not the thrill of adventure so much as
 it Is the spirit of Captain OShea that dominates the story and adds humor and
 romance to its already absorbing interest. Captain OShea is a man of action and a
 man of ideas. He preserves his charac-
