IT HE story of summer frocks draws
i toward its close and it has been
an intricate and much-embroidered
tale. WIN this Juror for embroider-

give place to some other forms of
elaboration or will we return to the
simple life and affect plain frocks? No
one except the powers that design be-
hind the scenes is. able to make q
guess, but here is late summer gown
without vestige of embroidery on 1t.
All that is left of the endlessly ingen-
tous stitchery that has adorned every
thing this summer, is mere trace of

bon finished with a buckle. There
is a narrow girdle made of the ribbon
and fastening with buckle at the
front and a sailor collar of satin, the
combination being just what one
would expect in July and August, a
happy union of black and white with
the black playing a minor role.
The hat reverses this order OF
things, being of black cire with white
satin facing. 1t has an unpretentious
pattern in white yarn applied to the

novel as it was on the stage. The
tense psychic atmosphere Of the play
is only imperfectly preserved in the
book. There are some things that can
not be adequately expressed in words,
and sense of mysterious supernatural
forces at work is one Of them.
At the same time, "The Invisible Foe"
is good story. The mysterious theft
which hastens the end of the old mil
lionaire, the clue to the crime, which is
concealed in dusty book in the dead
mans library; the thrilling psychical
processes by which the innocent man
lis vindicated and the criminal revealed,
all these elements contribute to the
making of an unusually fascinating
plot. The we'll ordered Irritation be-
tween DR.. Latham and Mrs. Hilary re-
lieves the strain of the narrative. The
appeal of the novel should be enhanced
by the present widespread interest in
psychical experiments.
New-York tribune., 1920-07-25

many readers will therefore find inter-
est in this part of the story. But when
Quelch makes love to her she gets in
suited and frightened and pretends she
didn't know the gifts were from him.
Loree's acceptance of Quelch's dia-
mond necklace causes the death of
Frederick HufFe, because Huffe sold it
to Quelch and used the money for his
own banking house, when the necklace
really belonged to Huffe's client, Rachel
Solano. Caught, Huffe shoots himself.
Mrs. Cork, a widow at Loree's hotel,
who is trying to raise money to edu-
cate her son, also falls in the power,
cursesl of Quelch, because Mrs. Cork
has stolen a diamond from his mine.
Both women are blackmailed for a
time. Mrs. Cork is coerced into
Quelch's confederacy to intrigue Loree
so he can threaten her into submission
by saying he will pull down the temple
of (her) reputation into the dust" But
Quelch turns out to be an awfully nice
villain by freeing Mrs. Cork and Loree
The formers son is drowned trying to
save Quelch's son at an English school
far away, and the news is cabled. Loree
escapes to her hubby minus her dia-
monds, a frightened girl who has
Learned a lesson" Let readers take
heed. Mrs. Cork and Quelch bemoan
the mutual loss of their sons.
Cynthia Stockley often says that
Quelch takes Loree in his arms with
his eyes, which, to US, is new trick.
There are other brilliant repetitions,
such as when Loree, with hair the color
of the back of fiddle, stands on the
"perilous precipices" where "fre-
flowers blow" Once, when Loree goes
into the hotel hall, "every man in the
hotel" is there to stare at her because
she "lookcd ravissante." While at q
performance of Pinero's ''The Gay Lord
Quex" red-haired Loree gets from the
audience more attention than the play
On page 68 she slips a diamond neck
lace over her red brown hair, though
on page 1913 we eventually learn it does
have a platinum clasp on it. Thesroses
Quelch gave to Loree Scented the
whole hotel" Loree wears "soft and
slight and slinky garments" but on
one occasion she rejected even these in
place of some powder ninon," with
which "she swathed herself as with
some soft blue mist" and turned on
the electric fans in her room. The
first time she puts on Quelch's pink
gods' She looks "like an angel who had
been down to hell on an errand and got
back safely" Did you ever see wom-
an stand like a pillar of SALT? One
does in this story. Loree on page 1872
pushes pain back into her emotional
hair" And poor Mrs. Cork gets SO
worked up that finally she says that
God "knew that no man could ever be
great who had shameful mother
and He had pity on my SON"

Russian Letters
An American Woman in
Red Petrograd

M RS PAULINE S. cRossLEY's
1VI eliminate Letters From Petro-
grad" (Dutton) present a vivid
picture Of the manifold inconveniences
OF living in a country which Is being
torn by revolution. The author and
her husband, an American naval at
tache, entered Russia through Siberia
shortly after the March revolution.
From the very beginning Mrs. Cossley
displays an uneasy premonition that
the Russians are likely to go too far
with their newly won liberty. The
Journey across Siberia was made very
unpleasant because crowds Of soldiers
insisted upon boarding the train and
riding without tickets.
Life In Petrograd, which was difficult
enough at first, soon went from bad 10
worse as the radical elements gained
increasing power in the government.
Mrs. Crossley's letters are filled with
accounts Of the varied expedients to
which the was compelled to have re-
course in order to keep the family
larder supplied. She also takes an
active interest in politics, and often
refers with loathing and contempt to
the Soviets, whose members she habitu
ally alludes to as the Dogs Deputies"
The author seems to have number
OF charming acquaintances among the
Russian officers, and these friends
somewhat modified the low estimate
which she seems to have conceived of
the Russian national character Her
comments become more and more
gloomy, however, as events indicate a
more and moro decided drift to the
extremists. With her husband, who
was vainly attempting to instill some
llfs into the moribund Russian navy.
MRS. Crossley remained in Petroprad
even after the Bolshevik revolution
her letters at this time are full of
horrible outrages committed bv soldiers
ana peasants under Red influence. She
was not personally molested, although
the Bolshevik house committee which
CLAIMED Jurisdiction over her apart
ment ordered her and her husband to
shovel snow on this occasion. Mr..
Crossley's rifle was handy, however,
and the committee did not attempt to
enforce its decree.
Mrs. Crossley's letters express verv
well the natural reaction of cultivated
American woman to the proletarian
dictatorship. Arranged almost in the
form of diary they possess piquant
graphic quality which is often lack;no
in more pretentious worka u

The British Navy in the War
First Volume of Corbett's History Covers
Opening of the Conflict

we have picture of England, shrouded
IN mist of uncertainty, appalled, by
the threat of a European war, at first
uncertain what disposition to make
OF her fleet, and then, before a
declaration of war on her part, sending
her ships forth equipped ready for
battle. The influence of that act was
felt at once. 1t thwarted German in
tentlons on the French coast, caused
the cutting of German cables, gave
Great Britain the practical command
OF all seas at the outset Then fol-
lowed the escape of number of Ger
man cruisers, intent on sea pillage,
which leads up to the story of the
pursuit of the Goebcn and her appear
ance at Constantinople.
Here we pause for moment. for
Sir Julian has given in his account
of the Goeben fuller measure of
light on the significance of this ships
arrival in the Dardanelles. Turkey had
been holding back. Pressure from
Berlin had not forced her into the war
And so this receiving and protecting
of Admiral Souchon's ship by the Turks
was means, extemporized, perhaps. of
forcing Turkeys hand. We know the
sequel. The world laughed derisivelv.
thinking the Goebcn had feared to
meet an English battleship. Germany
chuckled, for Through the Goeben she
had compelled Turkey to follow her
lead
But the big, compelling chapters in
THIS volume are those that deal with
the splendid policing Of the Channel.
which permitted steady stream of
troops to be poured into France-those
that tell of heroic actions at sea. and
Sir Julian salutes brave foemen when
he passes' them in his narrative, and
those that give in a rich fullness the
stories of the Coronel and Falkland
battles.
We have but suggested the value of
Naval Operations" 1t is hard to i'm
agine any work on England's naval par
ticlpatlon in the war that can ever
shadow it, and we look expectantly for
the second volume, which will carry on
the story from the date,~of Falkland.
And yet, even if three or four volumes
follow. as promised by the author, this
first of the set, containing all the
drama at sea of the tense opening
months of the conflict, should stand as
the most interesting, as in many ways
the most vital, Of them all.
