age of IL, and then on more slowly
through the years, bringing in her
two companions, Phyllis and Dorothea,

her hair and is pronounced by her
cousins as too grown up to partake
of their play-secrets.
We can find little of a mothers In

young life. We doubt if one would
like to have the grown woman for a
friend. Maybe we had an abnormal
childhood, but we were not allowed to
read some of the "stuff' Elizabeth
reads, nor have some of the Stylish"
clothes she has, nor the apparent free
dom she has, but this may be the new

She Cast a Spell
On the Minister

colored with the half tints of modern
psychic phenomena. Judy Rhines, the
daughter of the witch who abides on
Dogtown Common, whence the men go
to the fishing and seldom came back,
casts her very human spell upon John
Wharf, the minister. A highly spirit
ual conception is embodied in this echo
of local tradition; Mr.. Mackaye's irreg-
ularly metrical verse is perfectly
adapted to the swift current of his
narrative that races like a turbid
brook down the hillside. The scenes
are shown with just the proper min

light Whittier would have liked this
piece, however it might have shocked
his gentler habit of mind. Half saw
age traits of harsh life spent in evad-
ing death by drowning on one hand
and fire and birthstone from the pulpit
on the other, are skilfully indicated,
and the eternal feminine glitters
through the cloak of rustic clumsiness.
The author of Elsie Venner," too,
would have recognized the witch's Ian
tern which has led the poet along his
uneven way. The early nineteenth
century, illuminated by the fearless
understanding of the early twentieth,
makes entertaining reading for the
sociologist AS poetry, it is more
dramatic than musical. This is one
of Mr.. Mackayes characteristics.

MI son, has a flair for what
were once called humors.
She is the author of THE Sinister
Revel,' and in "Gibbeted Gods" she
again draws convincingly a very cyni-

blight which was thrown over the
childhood and later life of Charlotte
Baird by Paddy, her adored mother.
Paddy had an intense delight in shat
