They Had Been F Friends
A Dramatic Romance of the
Time of Prince Charlie

FOES by Mary Johnston 12mo, PIP. 35s Harper
& Bros
Miss Johnston's latest romance is to
be regarded from two distinct points
of view. One Is perhaps suggested in
the title. That is, the psychological.
metaphysical, religious. The book is
study of the transformation of an
early friendship into bitter enmity,
the love of boyhood into the hatred
of manhood, with much speculation
upon the relation Of religion to
vengeance and to forgiveness. From
that point of view we regret to re-
gard the work as unconvincing. 1t is
vague and it is incongruous, for we
really cannot attribute to Scotsmen Of
Prince Charles day the philosophic
notions which the author represents
them as cherishing.
From the other point of view, that
of sheer romance, vivid, dashing,
dramatic tale of chivalric days in one
Of the most picturesque and romantic
cess. In no other of her writings has
the author told a more thrilling and
interest gripping tale. II speak of
the pine tree in the blast" cries Glen
fermie, land such as you would give
me panses! l speak of the eagle at
the crag top in the storm and you
offer butterfies!" In that Is sug-
gested the sweeping gamut of human
emotions, PASSIONS, deeds, with which
the author deals with q practised and
masterfuly sure hand in a romance
that must take high rank amid the
best fiction o. the year

From Butterfly to Heroine

THE CROSS OF FIRE. By Robert Gordon Andcr-
son. Illustrated l2mo pD. 3sl The Houghton
Miffin Company
There are some melodramatit
touches in this story which might have
been spared, and some scenes which
tax credulity, but on the whole we
must reckon it is spirited and hfelike
story of the awakening of America to
the realities of the war and of the in
fernal intrigues Of German agents and
their treacherous and degenerate
American accomplices cooled in the
Flag" The chief male character and
several subsidiary figures are obviously
taken from real life under the most
transparent of name masks, and are
drawn with sufficient accuracy. The
chief female character is probably
quite imaginary, but is the most inter
esting in the book: The development
of her from an idle society butterfly
to strenuous little heroine is the
best feature Of the book, though the
description, in the early chapters, OF
German plots and crimes is admirably
done.

Temperamental Jimmie

JIMMIE TUE SIXTH. BY Frances r. stcrrett.
Illustrated limo. PIP. 1922 D. Appleton & Co
Jimmie, a very aristocratic young
man, was also uncommonly tempera-
mental, and with his taste for form and
color was convinced that to be dress
maker was his heaven-appointed mis-
sion in life. Of course the family and
the community gasped at the very idea,
not having been educated up to that
Partisan standard, but Jimmie perse-
vered. Then when the war came on he
went into the Foreign Legion, where
that same gift for form and color
made him the star camouheur and
won him honors which convinced the
family and the community that he
was right. 1t is a decidedly readable
and entertaining book.

were asked by the Minnesota commits

seditious nature" created trcasonable
sentiments in Minnesota and weakened

The charges characterized Senator
La Toilette as "a teacher of disloyalty

guilty of giving aid and comfort to
the enemy and hindering the govern

Statements Of Senator La Toilette re-

BIRTH. BY zona Gale l2mo. pp 402. The
Macmillan Company.
We have recently had occasion to
speak in terms of high praise of sew
eral romances of American life, which
seemed to US fairly epic in their scope,
entering in a broad and comprehensive
way into the very heart of things, and
we are glad to-day to add another
volume to the list, and that not in the
lowest place, Those who are infatu-
ated with thrilling melodrama and those
who care for nothing but artistic
preciosity may regard it with disfavor.
SO much the worse for them. Those
who are interested in the real comedy
and tragedy Of human life, sincerely
portrayed just for the sake of holding
the mirror up to nature and with no
Interior motive of problem or propa-
ganda, will recognize it as a work more
closely approxlmating genius than the
great mass of current fiction.
1t is story of small lives in p small
town that Miss Gale tells, lives such as
may be numbered by millions in our
land. The chief figures are a man and
a woman. The one is honest, affection
ate, devoted, self-sacriicing, but of
pltlable limitations in all the social
graces. The other. with some fine
qualities, is overambitious, dissatisfied
and unable to withstand the last ap-
peal Of temptation. 1t is often sordid
tale, yet not .infrequently heroic; it is
unspeakably. pathetic, yet throughout
instinct with racy humor. There arc
clean-cut delineations and searching
analyses of character; a plausible and
interesting sequence of Incidents, and
an atmosphere of reality which causes
the reader to feel that he is in actual
physical contact with the scenes before
him. In the presence of such great
merits it would be fnicky to carp at a
few minor and technical faults or to
hesitate to pronounce Birth" one of
the genuinely outstanding romances of
the year.

,,l;,-, dor Illustrated. limo. pD. 5o3. Robert NJ
This latest mystery story aims at
being a "thriller" and hits the mark,
We have mysterious house on a mys
terious island, frequented by mystic
rious people. There are crimes, abduc-
ton, imprisonment under pretence of
insanity, romantic escape, and, of
course, thread of loyal love running
through it all, which finally proves tri
umphant. The artifice is often too ap-
parent, and situations and acts are n OF
always true to nature, but the "thrills''
come all the same. And why should
not fiction by fictitious?
