MEN As MONKEYS
Clarence Day, Jr.. Has Written
an Interesting Commentary
on Simian Civilization

The blundering futility Of men has
impressed itself on many observers and
they have written about it from various
points Of view. 1t has remained for
Clarence Day, Jr.. one of the editors OF
the Metropolitan Magazine. to apply the
logic of the Darwinian theory to the
situation and to discuss our civilization
as the product of the surviving simian
instincts in men.
Monkeys spend their time chattering.
They are not able to follow anything
to its proper conclusion. They are for
gctful. but they are curious. Before
they find out anything definitely, how
ever. their attention is distracted to
something else. In most general terms
Mr.. Day describes how men are like
monkeys. In real civilization he says
that there would be no lost arts, for
example. and men who knew that war
was wasteful would not spend their
time preparing to kill one another and
periodically engage in the work of kill
ing. And so on through all the human
activities from marrying to money
making and from education to religion.
1t is most suggestive and stimulating
book. deserving of the popularity which
has come to it..

CTION AND GENERAL LITERATURE
THE STORY OF
EUGENE IN EXILE
English Woman of Her House
hold Writes Graphic Me-
moirs Of En.Empress

Lovers Of memoirs and memories will
hnd much to divert and inform them in
DOCK by Agnes Carey. entitled EN-
press Eugene in Exile" As the title
indicates, this large and interesting vol
ume is in the main devoted to the long
period Of the third Napoleon's spouse $
soJourn in England, terminated by her
death at an advanced age n short time
ago.
In her preface Mrs. Carey says that
Richard Watson Glider was anxious to
have her publish parts of this book
several years ago, but that she felt it
would be breach of confidence during
the life Of the empress. She continues !:
However disconnected and fragmentary
the following account of the empress
may be, it has one merit-truth to fact
Anecdotes and an account of events
were hastily scribblcd at the close Of
each busy day. Realizing the value Of
spoDtaneity, | have purposely kept as
much as possible to the wording of these
notes-written while the actual words
the empress spoke and her impressive
face and gestures were fresh in my
mind. Other incidents, since learned.
might have inspired better stories, but
would not be the words that came from
her own lips. So I have preferred to
give only what I positively know she
said, merely adding few words here
and there for the sake Of clarity"
Mrs. Carey writes from first hand
knowledge. As young woman she
li'<d for many months in the cx en-
press household at Marlborough. In
the intimacy of daily intercourse the
empress poured out story after story Of
her remarkable experiences to the sym
pathetic girl. who kept a journal and
who wrote a letter to her grandmother
every day telling of her experiences. In
later years, when she wrote the book
the author made use Of her journal
and her letters. and 80 the book pre-
scnts wildly the personality of the en-
press and the style has the charming
freshness and vcracity Of spontaneity.
This book gives the chief facts Of
Eugenie's life. and her own account of
historical events and eminent person
ages, often in her own words. 1t is not
a formal biography, but chatty mar
rative that has caught for the reader
the dignity and personal magnetism of
one Of the most famous and most ap-
pcaling women of the nineteenth cen
tury.

B.4RRIE'S MAGIC
He ShowS IL at Work in His
Fantasy, n Kiss for
Cinderella"

1T James NJ. Barrie is not a magician
with words then the English speakinc
race never produced one. This opinion
has been expressed on this page be
fore. 1t is repeated now because it is
confirmed by the publication of "a Kiss
Tor Cinderella, play which delighted
Philadelphia audiences when il was
presented here and which will delight
Philadelphia readers in another way
when they sit down quietly at homo and
turn the pages Of the volume and smile
and Chucklc and wee" at the strange
and whimsical stag" directions inserted
by the author in oricr to make tho play
more intclligiblC to those who sec il
only between the covers of book,
For tenderness, for human insight.
for whimsical humOr and for sound
sense there is no play of its kind in
the language which can rival this. It
is fantasy. of course. One could at
tack it for its lack of plausibil:ty and
for its cXtrnvagant demands ON the
imagination Of the reader. But Mr.
Barrie did nOt writc it for DcOplc with
neither Imagination nor sentiment. The
version now offered to the public differs
in some respects from tho version which
Maudc Adams acted at the Broad Street
neatrc. Whether Mr.. Barrie has made
additions to it or whether certain parts
were cut out in order to concentrate
attention on the part of Cinderella does
not appear, But the play now stands
in the shap" in which its author wishes
it TO remain. That is enough for most
of us, who are content with ANYTHING
which this marvclouSly gifted Scotch
man chooses to offer.
