visions of $4,000 salary. 1t was rather

about the hard bumps he got, and some

old vagabond who is Wrifords COM

secret of life long before it dawns on
his friend When their rambles come to
an unfortunate end. Wriford becomes

drunkard in country town. In this
new life he loges in the family of
plumber, whose daughter Essie Is un-
doubleday the most lovable heroine that
her cerator has yet portrayed; but 1t
must not be imagined that this gives
the key to the solution of the story. On
the contrary 1t. will be found that the
probable way out is not the one Mr..
Hutchinson takes. The plot is unusual,
there is rich humor, and the charm of
the characters Is what one has been led
to expect of this talented author. Jolly
old Mr.. Puddlebox is especially we'll

wrapt in this winsome story of noun

Priscilla is finer, If anything, and a

most human and appealing figure.

"THE WITCH
BY Mary Johnston. Frontpiece by n. O..
Wyeth. Houghton Mifflin Co., publish
ers, No. Park Row, Boston.
In this important new novel, The
Witch" Miss Johnston goes back, as her
thousands of readers will find to their de-
light to the field of some Of her earlier
successes-the spacious days of Queen
Elizabeth.
The story opens in the death chamber
of the great Queen, and with that uncanny
power of historic resurrection of which
Miss Johnston is master. the reader Is
made to feel the great issues that are
hanging in the ba1ance-issues of thought
and faith within England itself. issues of
imperialistic destiny in the great countries
overseas which the dying queens sailor
adventures have discovered and ex-
plotted.
The two chief characters of the book
are Joan Heron. a beautiful girl of strong,
original nature and Independent mind. and
DR.. Aderhold, who like nearly all stu
dents of medicine in his age, was, a
thinker in advance of his time, and there
fore I'm the event inevitably suspected of
atheism and sorcery. As the plot de-
yelops, not only is Aderhold suspected of
unholy practices In the black art. but
Joan Is accused of withcraft. They are
arrested and tried together. Never has
Miss Johnston done more magnificent
work than in her absorbing account of
this typical witch persecution" At the
end of the trial., Joan and Aderhold are
sentenced to death, but they escape and,
after many adventures on the road, take
ship for Virginia, Joan disguised as a
boy, the travelling companion of the
physician AS the voyage progresses,
however, her sex and identity are sus-
pected, and, the sailors ascribing to her
withcraft the bad weather which attends
the voyage, she and Aderhold are cast
adrift In an open boat. This catastrophe,
however. Is not the end of the story, and
in the Bahamas and later in Virginia, II
comes to its final impressive ending.
As a historic picture of the days OF
Queen Elizabeth. the story has never been
surpassed. 1t is written in Miss John
ston's richest vein of imaginative COM
prehension of times past, and all the char
acters are strong and vital. The growth
of the love between Aderhold and Joan
| is one of the most appealing episodes OF
this nature to be found in any OF Miss
Johnston's books, but perhaps the impress
sion that will live longest in the reader
memory is that of the marvellous Eliza
bethan world of adventure. controversy
passion, and vital personality.
