THE SOUL, OF A BISHOP"
 By H. G. Wells Frontispiece by C. Allan
 Gilbert. The Macmillan Co.,, publish CTS, New York.
 As in "Mr. Brittling Sees 1t Through
 Mr. Wells shows in The Soul of
 Bishop" the astounding effect Of the
 great war on the normal civilian life or
 England. In this new novel he shows it's
 effect on that bulwark of society, the
 church. The bishop, brought up in rev
 erence for the forms of religion, Is over
 whelmed by the terrific questions that
 the war hurls upon him, questions when
 these forms cannot help him answer.
 Mir Wells solution is revolutionary, yet
 his book ie deeply religious. And he
 puts his thesis to the reader, as in MT.
 Brittling, through a moving story or
 real human beings. The publication or
 "The Soul of 8 Bishop comes at an
 apt moment-the moment when America
 is beginning to realize her own part III
 the world crisis and envisage some or
 the material and spiritual transforma-
 tions it may bring.
 One guesses that in MT. Wells mind
 this bishop. in the early stages of the story, stands for the Church of England. He had taken life, the author tells us' exactly as in infancy he took his care fully warmed and prepared bottle-un- questioningly and beneficially. He ac- cepted with an almost equal reverence the church the crown, the Enghsh so- cial system, and he had been kind, popular, endlessly active" never falter- ing in his devotion to his inherited standards of belief It was not until he became bishop of Princhester, few years before the story opens, that doubts began to eat into his soul It is an ln- dustrial region, there are labor trouoles' and the tlshcp scurries about trying to make the church of practical use lhe strenuous, rough, unreverent world i'll which he find himself. like lamp as tray among rocks and thorns, distufos and discourages him.

August Fashions Reflect
the Approach Of Fall

\ dresses and suits, and sprlnkled hers
and there among them we even SEE
heavy coats with fur collars and ful
trimmings. in the face, OF al this
even those of us who have set against
the idea OF rushing the seasons can
not. help showing some curiosity as tc
what we shall wear when the cool
weather comes. And, after Ill. there
is some method in this seeming mad
mess, and something to be said for the
reason Of it. For those who have to
get their wardrobes early il must be
considered great privilege to have
a peep into the fashions for autumn as
fearly as this, for certainly no ono
would relish the idea Of making over
a dress that had been made one OF two
months before the autumn styles be-
came known, which might very easily
happen If dresses made up toward the
end of the summer are not planned
with a view to having them stylish for
fall wear.
The Long Tunic Prominent
There is no doubt that the long tun-
ic will be very popular for the coming
season everything goes to show this.
In the very newest models the tunic Is
employed and in ever so many charm
ing ways. In the smart dress illus-
trated agove, the long tunic, pressed
into straight pleats and parted at the
side, shows one of the favored designs.
Buttons placed close together on the
one side and bound buttonholes just
as many of them as there are buttons
on the other side, make the opening
Of the tunic much more interesting, for
this is certainly novel treatment and
one which will attract lovers Of the I'M
usual. The dress, with its straight
bodice and straight stitched belt. Is
very characteristic Of that smart sim
plicity which now marks a great many
of the new models. This dress IN sat-
in or serge would undoubtedly prove |
very useful for a between-season |
frock. Al |

THE HARVEST MOON.

During the last days of September
and the first few days in October the
world was bathed in the rays of the
Harvest Moon. The popularity of the
harvest moon is that it shines through
out the entire night, rising just after
sunset and staying on duty until the
orb Of day has made his appearance
This schedule is followed for several
days. Why the deviation from the
usual schedule, none seem to know. i.
the countries of Europe its brilliant
light has always been utilized more or
less to "save daylight" in the harves,
operations. ii has also been favored
by lovers presumably since> Adam
wooed Eve in the Garden. The harvcs.
moon figures largely in the folklore OF
many of the northern countries.

We are told that "the Kai-
ser has regarded it as his
principal and most sacred task
to preserve the blessings of
peace" And as he seems to
have a widely different con-
ception from the balance of
the world as to the brand of
peace that should prevail, we
suppose he considers it his sa-
cred duty to exterminate all
who differ from him.
