either go on and on until the bitter be-
comes sweet, as II does, 1 assure you; or
else rectify the mistake at the very be-
ginning" This Is the advice that Kitty
Flint gives friend, young married
woman, and 1t reveals the secret of her
life. Kitty Flint snatched her life from
ruin and dedicated 1t to others. There
is pathos and some of the irony of life
in the fact that she bestows so much of
her love upon the son of her old sweet
heart and partner in sin, whose image
she keeps ever I'm her heart.
Kitty Fllnts front door was never
locked-she feared that her love might
return and find the way barred. The
years passed, and he never came until
one Christmas Day, and then her heart
broke, maybe of joy.
The scene of the plot is laid In Penn
sylvania town and the life of the village
is well portrayed. notable feature of
the book Is the rare and wholesome
humor that runs throughout. In tech
nIque the work is masterful.

The Changing Drama

Books on the drama are as thick as
leaves in spring. Every week brings a
new one. But 1t really is a new one;
that is the hopeful thing in all this
multitudinous writing about the theatre.
Each book seizes on some fresh angle of
this vast and changing question of public
amusement.
One of the newest bears the significant
title, "The Changing Drama" and en-
deavors to think in a systematic man
ner about all that Is happening to the
plays, piaywrights and theatres of
civilization. Naturally it leaves out of
consideration the greatest thing that has
yet happened to them, the war. Our
books have not yet caught up, and the
effect of European conflict on the drama
will be some years in developing.
Archibald Henderson, author of 1.-THE
Changing Drama" wrote an amazing
and highly interesting compendium of
Bernard Shaw. The present book is
as varied and complete. A few chapter
headings give an idea of this: Drama in
the New Age, Science and the New
Drama, The Play and the Reader, The
Battle With Illusions.

Two Love Incubators

"Just a little love incubator, a-hatching
out love all the time" is Cherub, the wee
heroine of Helen S. Woodruff's latest
book, "The Little House" George II.
Doran Company. Scarcely less OF a love
Incubator is old Aunt Caroline, though
OF more ample proportions. The theme Is
love In its sweetest guise, that OF a little
girl who YIELDS parted loves. The reader
experiences more than once that rare
sensation of a lump-clogged throat, due
entirely to the thrilling beauty of the tale
Little Cherub, properly christened Doro-
thy. is a Yankee-born child, daughter OF
Southern girl who eloped to wed her
Northern sweetheart. This disrupted her
family, driving her mother mad and es-
tranging the fiery old Southern Colonel
her father But the little child led them
and love and peace were restored.
Probably some will say that the picture
Of the old Southern darlxy Is overdrawn.
But 1t is not. The Negro parson. who runs
away with one OF the sisters, taking all
the church funds; the little pickaninny,
the old nanny, and The typical old butler
are all true to life, to say nothing OF a
rich and amusing exposition of the darkey
superstitions.
An excellent sidelight on the Negro
problem is contained in this graphic state
ment:
Eve emanclpate race that Is no more
able to take care of itself than a child
is and when temptation comes and
member of 1t falls. we blame them rather
than ourselves"

Dilittante Depreciations

Even these days of specialization bring
forth occasional literary dilettants, B.
Russell Herts in his "Depreciations" (Al-
bert and Charles Boni, N. " can hardly
be 6alled anything else. Not only does
the little volume of few hundred pages
cover wide field of thought, but it can
not even be said to do so with any
great uniqueness or style. Any of us
might have had just such interesting
thought on many subjects, and most any
of us might have written them down with
equal success. There are many sugges-
tions of original thinking, but they are
vague, and when you consider that Mr..
Herts thinks upon ali subjects from THE
Import of the Superficial to "a Visit to
G. X. c." you can hardly expect him to
touch great depths on any one. He ap-
parently lives UP to his belief in super
ficialities. In the end all we can say is
that Mr.. Herts has a mind which Skins
round on great potentialities, offers sug-
gestions to other minds and fills In many
evident gaps with epigrams. The author
himself feels that his book may be only
a pin-prlck. We are inclined to agree
with him-or, perhaps, even think 1t less
valuable.

Vaudeville as It Is

Vaudeville as an art may seem a nom
existent entity to "high-brows' who en-
ploy such language. AS matter of fact,
there is as much of the artistic method
needed in getting it across to a variety
audience as in any other occupation
where a human must bring another
human into tune with his mood. Other
people besides Caroline Caffin have noted
this, but none has set 1t down so con-
vincingly as she has done in Vaudeville"
CMitchel Kennerley, New York;.
In the various chapters of her book she
has grouped some hundred performers
under heads as diverse and as interesting
as "The Force of Personality" "Marvels
of Strength and Daring and Music and
Near Music" The description and an
alysis of each ones "act," the location
of just the thing that distinguishes it, is
really remarkably keen.
AS If Miss Caffin hadn't supplied plenty
of stimulus and amusement, the publisher
has scattered through the volume almost
80 caricatures by de Zayas that are in
their own way quite as subtle an analysis.

The Kaiser

An Intimate view of Kaiser Wilhelm OF
Germany. his strength aitd his weakness
both as a lnan and an emperor, is given
In ''The kaiser" doubleday, Page &
Company, edited by Asa Don Dickinson.
The book is a compilation, the contrlbu-
tors being selected from q. wide field OF
both friend and foe to the Fatherland.
1t is admirably edited and the varying
opinions are blended into an excellent
treatise upon the Most interesting man
in Europe"
Every phase Of the Emperor's person-
ality Is dealt with, hi sfoibles, his little
vanities his proclivlties for much-speak-
ing and preaching, his belief that moth
ing must happen in the world without
the consent OF Germany" his lnordinate
love of being photographed, and his
clinging hold on the old theory Of divine
right-all are treated in convincing man
ner None the less forcefully Is presented
the Kaiser's strength of character and
his stern regard for truth and right. He
takes the king business" seriously, we
are told and he works hard at IL. Ger
many first is his motto. This is carried to
the degree that he drinks only German
wines. on this score he once remon-
strated with the great Bismarck, who
replied that his patriotism did not extend
to his stomach. Some of the chroniclers
are disposed to explain many of the
seemingly idle boasts of the Kaiser with
the statement that they are made when
he is intoxicated this is denied How
ever. there Is no dispute OF the 1ustness
of the title of William, the Indiscreet."
The Kaiser is assailed for his notable
declaration in 1909 that Now another
empire has arisen The German people
has once more an emperor of It's own
choice. With the sword on the field of
battle has the crown been won" Not
withstanding his weaknesses, the Kaiser
is described as man of power 1t Is

vest expansion commercially that has
taken place under his reign, that no
other country has shown such marvellous
growth.
The great work of the Emperor now is
building navy commensurate in strength
with his army, the most powerful In the
world. His ambition is-or was before
the present war-to be lord of the seas
as well as of the land
At this time the book is particularly
interesting, and it is one of the most
comprehensive and instructive treaties to
be found
