One of Napoleon's Sleuths

THE MAN IN GREY. BY Baroness Orczy- limo.
pp 500. George II. Doran Company.
Here is q collection OF stories Dullt
around the mysterious personality OF
a secret agent of Napoleon's Minister
Of Police and his skill in frustrating
the Vaccinations of the Chouans OF
Normandy, the "eXtreme lefts" of the
Royalist party of the time, whose name,
Chouans-Chats- -huants tscreech owls
was symbolic of their practice of
coming out to terrorize In the night
and disappearing from the sight of man
sy day. Extant historical data con-
cerning this troubled time are frag
mentary enough to be very stimulating
to fecund imagination. 1t is a we'll
of mystery and adventure into which
the author has dipped her fluent pen,
and from its nibs flow thrills a-plenty
for those minded .c the enjoyment of
swift moving melodrama. The mys-
terious Man in Grey. like his worthy
confrere, Sherlock Holmes, has the all
seeing eye and lightning brain that
divine the ruse in all subterfuges and
work certain confusion to the plans
Of the INSCRIPTIONS brigands that it is
his business to thwart. The charms of
q beautifl al and daring lady brigand
also add complications to his task and
zest to the story. 4. /. L.

An impossible Creature

MOTHERS or MEN. BY William Henry Warner
agd De Witc hapan. Frontisplece i2mn. ID.
"ll. Temple Scott
OF all the impossible works inspired
by the war this is about the poorest
product we have yet seen. The plot
ting is trite and sloppy, the dction is
not particularly good and the story is
hopelessly, sentimentally silly. Worse
than that, the authors have endeavored
to disguise their lack of skill in story
telling by catering to the prurient.
The young and innocent girl seduced
against her will is an old figure in
fiction. We sometimes doubt if she
really exists anywhere else. But the
tender, delicate, we'll bred, refined
young woman, who fails to kill her
seducer, and instead lives on with him
for months, apparently we'll pleased
with her lot, we are sure has no real
existence. She is a creature born of
an unclean mind. When afterward she
marries a man who loves and trusts
her, lies to him, betrays his confidence
and almost his country into the hands
of his enemies, she is unspeakable.
The book has a happy ending, after
all this disagrecable nonsense. Rut
then it is tiction--fction without real
ism. G.. c.. o.

At peril of being vox ct prae-
terea nihil, we rejoice in the privilege
of commencing Dr. Fernalds latest
book to all readers, and certainly to all
writer's and speakers, in the highest

some at it's pronunciation, some at lts

DR.. Fernald's book may not be flaw

attempt to revive, or, perhaps, TO Gre

of the greatest needs of the time, not

but throughout the world. For English

supremely desirable that it shall be

letters of the Commonplace

FROM sUNUP TO sUNDOwN. BY Cora Harris
and Faith Harris Leach limo, pp. 3dS Double
day, Page & Co.
This book-it can hardly be called a
story, it has no plot and no unity ex-
cept that of time-is series of letters
which passed between a young bride
and her mother. They bear all the
verisimiitude OF real letters, which
makes us wonder why they were ever
published. Why do people think that
their purely personal letters have an
interest for the world at large? 1t
seems the height of egotism. 1t is a
pity that this book should go forth
over Miss Harris's name, for she has
done good work in the past. Except
for an occasional fash of the philosophy
which made her other books interest
ing, we have never read duller letters.
They might, of course, be valuable to
the amateur farmer They mainly deal
with pigs, cleaning pig pens, putting
baby pigs to bed with hot water bot
ties to keep their backs warm, mixing
their rations and tying their tails up
in red flannel to keep them from freez-
ing. Mrs. Leach apparently works up
much enthusiasm for acting as nurse
to small pigs. But, to use theatrical
phrase, she does not put it over"
Then the picture Of marriage is in
expressably commonplace. ordinary, un-
lovely. 1t is all bound up in the most
unrosy, uaideal philosophy, cluttered
with unwashed dishes and haying; so
unattractive, in fact, that we strongly
advise any person contemplating matri-
mony to flee from this book as from
the plague lest it so discourage them
from any hope of happiness that they
tear up the license and throw the
wedding ring in the gutter. G. c. 0.

LADY IARKsPuR By Meredith Nicholson
lomo ~ l'l Charles seribners sons
Mr.. Nicholson is master of fan
tassy. He showed US his art at peri
heiion in his immortal "Madness OF
May and now he shows us that
though the theme is varied his touch
remains as sure, as true and as en-
chanting as ever. The missing lady OF
a play IS the central figure of this
dainty little romance of mystery, with
all sorts of fantastic complications
and adventures, duplicating a numer-
Gus company of invariably interesting
people. In spite of the fantasy. how
eyer every word and act is so plausi-
bic as to give the whole an air of con
vlncing reality. 1t is a brief tale.
which may be read at single sitting.
but 1t contains more joyous humor and
whimsical human nature than most Of
our full sized novels, and it will be
long remembered with unalloyed de
light.

A Students Library
shrewdly Suggesting That We
Sbould All Be Students

THE MODERN sTUDENr'S LIBRARY. Edited by
VIM D. Howe. Uniform lsmo Charles scrib-
ns.'s soss.
We have had many so-called "libra-
r;es',-good, bad and Indifferent; some
en- meagre as to belle the name, and
some so voluminous as to defeat the
yorv end for which they were devised.
n IS idle 10 speak of library" which
does not exceed half a dozen volumes,
while TO commend series of hundreds
of volumes to him who has means or
space for only score IS tantallZlng
mockery The best of such collec-
lions must be those possessed OF
certain homogeneity, which, of course,
will preclude universality, but which
vii most perfectly serve certain spe-
cjHc tastes and needs. 1t is also essen
tial that the editorship be competent
and authoritative, both in selection
and IN such abridgment, comment and
what not as may be needed.
OF such Is the series before US. In
name Students library, it trebly dem
onstrates its title to the distinction.
The selection of its component vol
umes is discriminating and scholarly.
Doubtless there are many other
volumes worthy of and desirable
for inclusion. That would be true
If the number OF them were multi
true. and is matter of supreme i'm
portance, that there is not a volume
in il that is not thus worthy and thus
desirable; not one that has not sat
isfactory and convincing reason for
being included. Again, each volume
is edited by competent authority
whose name is a guarantee of scholar
ly treatment. Some of them are
abridged, but in u manner which will
not lessen their value, save to those
who have some special need Of the
complete text. Most of them are, OF
course, given fully, and they are sup
piled with introductions and notes and
indices which materially enhance their
value, both to the student in school
and to the student in that larger sense
which should make the word applica
ble to every serious reader.
Perhaps this third consideration is
the most important of all. These vol
umes are obviously such as every
student in school and college should
be familiar with. Equally they are
such as every person who desires to

Wild Passions

THE uNTANHD Ry Max Brand l2mo. pp.
3'l G. T. punam's sons.
If we must have tales Of wild West
ern life, and we are glad to have them,
by all means let us have the real
things. Kid gloves and rosewater are
out OF place in the cowboys kit We
prefer the strong passions, unclaimed,
untettered, raging in wayward fury
Such is the Offering in this masterlv
volume The elemental passions of
strong men have unchecked sway,
There are marvellous riding and shoot
ing fighting and loving, humor and
hatred; the whole gamut of primitive
man. Withal there is chvalry that
charms and there is humanity that
WINS our sympathy; and there is over
all dramatic sweep that carries the
thrilled reader along in its irresistible
grasp. For adventure, for passion, for
the red blooded life of the desert and
the plains, it is such masterpiece as
we seldom see. 1t must have fore
most place among the many fine ro-
mances OF the Far West.
