THE MONEY MASTER.


 By Sir Gilbert Parker Illustrated by
 Andre Castaigne. Harper Bros pub
 fishers, New York.
 If there is anybody who can write a better novel than Sir Gilbert Parker it would take an expert to find out who it is.
 Nobody pictures things so beautifully none delineates chara cter more per fectly, and none knows better the trick of clever plot and denouement-so. why should he not stand head and shoulders above the rest of us?
 In his latest story, "The Money Mas ter" perhaps the most pleasing and the best of all the many pleasing and best things that he has done, the au- thor tells fascinating story of an un- usual personality whose loves, whose labors and whose fortunes are pie tured with dramatic force and poetic insight. ;
 Canada Is the scene, a picturesque background Of French civilization for this modern romance
 The book is primarily the .Iistory of Jean Jacques Barbille, His Labors. His Loves. and His Ladies'" but other people play more or less important parts. And though the "1ades"-Car- men, who had "an earthquake zone in her being; Zoe. simple. romantic, emo tional, and Virginia Poucette, the gem erous, straightforward. warm hearted, splendid Virginie. who helped Jean Jacques to do that one right thing which would save him in the end''- are all interesting. and one of them at least very lovable, they are none of shem quite so original and so charming as told Judge Carcasson and Monsieur Fille, clerk of the court.

THE TRAIL OF THE HAWK" By Sinclair Lewis. Harper Brothers, pub

 A story racy of American life, full of the. keen interest of real. unstandardized adventures, and of personal ups and downs, is Sinclair Lewis story of things as they are. and as one writer with more than a flash of originality sees them "The Trail of the Hawk" just published by the Hampers. There is quite as much satirical keenness and pungent humor in this tale as there was in MT. Lewis novel of last year, Our Mir.

ION TRIAL

By Elmer l.. Reizenstein. Made into a
 book from the play of the same name by
 D. Torbett. Illustrated. Dodd, Mead
 & Co.,, publishers, New York.
 Like the poet of old, young Elmer Reiz- enstein. without name or fortune, awoke one morning to find himself famous and all because he had written a most original and wonderful play which he called "On Trial"
 He was lauded from one end of the world to the other, by critics. press and public, and his phenomenal success was one of the biggest achievements of last yeason.
 The long run" which ''On Trial had in New York with Mary Ryan and Frederick Perry in the cast. made those who haven't t had the chance to see the play at least want to read book, which has been clev- erly done by D. Torbett, from the play.
 "On Triap' contained that rare and most difficult thing-a really new idea. And the novelty of the idea made the play a wonderful success. So, too, in the novel is based on the play there is the same originality and power. For something new in the way of a novel read this story.

THE MEASURE OF A MAN"

THE MEASU hE Of' MAN.
 By Amedia E. Barr. Illustrated by Frank
 T. Merrill. D. Appleton & Co, New
 York.
 Although Mrs. Amelia E. Barr is now in her eighty-fourth year and has con tributed to the literary world something like 60-odd novels. she still has the mar velous gift of graphically portraying char acter. outlining an interesting plot. and bringing about thrilling situations.
 The scene of her latest story, ''The Measure of a Man. is laid in the spin ming district of Yorkshire, and the hero, John Hatton, is the owner of a great factory. It is his splendid and just char acter which gives the book It's name, ''The measure of a Man." for If ever man measured up to the requirements. John Hatton did. He woos and marries wom- an of beauty, spirit, intelligence and good heart. and the way of life spreads out happily before their feet. But the years go by and, to the husbands sorrow, only one child, a daughter, comes to their home. It does not occur to him, and he believes it finally only upon the physi- clans assurance, that there is any con nection between the almost childlessness of his home and his wifes frequent ill., nesses and falling health. How the situa- tion divides them and what events and developments finally unite them again are unfolded in story that is told almost wholly by means of dialogue There is a graphic picture of the deplorable con- ditions to which the English spinning in- dustry was reduced by our civil war and of the clear-sighted nobility of spirit with which the operatives bore the hard and grim effects upon themselves.
 In a brief ''Preface' to "The Measure of a Man" Mrs. Barr gives an insight into her expedition of the characters Of the story and among other things she says:
 T had a purpose in writing this novel. It was to honor and magnify the sweet ness and dignity of the condition Of

average men and women, and the same flair for differences of character It is, the author tells us. "a serious study of a typical young American;' and this. if the word typical gives room for a very marked and engaging individuality, it's un- doubtedly is. The young American of the story is one of the New Yankees as MT Lewis calls them, the Scandinavians of Minnesota and the adjacent states. who in thrift. independence and shrewdness reproduce the original Yankee traits. With affection, and humor, and uncommonly clear vision the author tells of Carl Eric son early years in 'Joralemon," his boy ish adventures, his first party, his first love affair Carls experiences at college there are described with humorous real ism; yet the story holds something of the sentiment of student days, too, Tor this also is part of youth. This Is MT. Lewis way: he shirks neither the fact nor the glamour His story, indeed, is, throughout, of the school of the newer romance-the romance which loves ac- tuality. abhors eonventionality, but feels the lure of the unknown amid the mat ter-of-factness of things.
 carl's championing of @ professor who actually dares to speak out real convic- tions led to his leaving college Starting out to shift for himself, he made straight for Chicago. His career was neither a series Of brilliant successes nor suces- sion of dismal failures it was made up of varied and interesting experiences-in- teresting both because of their variety and also because they show the process by which very much alive young man eventually found himsef.' Carl was a packer in Chicago department store a chauffeur. an actor in a tent show tender of the motorboat fleet at an On- tario hotel; for a time, his fortunes at their lowest. he was porter in Bowery saloon. He missed the chance of being the hero of half dozen stories of in- evitable failure because he wouldn't stay in a rut, and because he wouldn't stay down; he continues to be the hero of q tale of refreshing, genuineness and con- vincing hopefulnessa Shaking off the saloon atmosphere. young Ericsson went to Panama, and subsequently,, as assist ant to a superintendent of mines, to Chihuahua. At the age of 231a years he arrived in San Francisco, where he got a job as helper in a repair shop for motorcycles.
 It was shortly after this that he learned to fly. The story of Hawk Ericson Gas he came to be called), the professional aviator, is told in way that shows real knowledge of flying, Hawk Ericsson turned prosaically to the automobile business. One day he caught sight of a girl in a street car The remainder of the novel is a story of love based upon pure com panionship-a companionship in which love never blinds the eyes of humor, and the spirit of play never becomes a pose. Zestful, amusing, and real, "The Trail of the Hawk is one of the best Ameri- can Iife-stories yet written.
