couple of pages, or gets them, anyway.
Now, Mr.. Hindss admiring critic can
tell a better story around this original
talent. AS a youth of twenty who
gazed transfixed by Titians Venus in
the Academia in Venice he heard a
hoarse whisper over hts shoulder which
said Clothed on with Chastity"
The whisperer, a short, stocky figure
with a red face and green eyes behind
glasses and wearing. that very hot day,
a pair of deep red kid gloves. said no
more but strolled away. Several times
thereafter the youth saw him in the
Piazza, but nobody knew who he was.
The next fall when the young traveller
had got as far north as Oxford he
found people there on the qui vive for
the first lecture of the season in the
famous library because Walter Pater
was to deliver 1t.
The day arrived, and who should
come on the platform but the Clothed

moved his lips. but apparently no
sound issued. Then, noticing a rest
lessness among his audience (mostly
females), Walter Pater advanced to
the front of the stage and said in the
recognizable hoarse whisper: Can you
all hear me?"

to keep themselves out of their books;
pictures are more self-revealing. A
painting hangs on the wall to be
studied at length and at any season; a
self-respecting author refuses to be
hung on wall. though he may be put
on the shelf without loss Of caste.
Throughout this volume, which does
not need a blue ribbon round Its neck

loving study of pictures is apparent
and the authors open soul has been
rewarded with lively enjoyment that

Mr.. Empey certainly whoops over

reversion to a type once more familiar

Plays in Rhyme
TWO MOTHERS. BY John G. Neihardt

TWO MOTHERS. BY John @. Neihardt.
The Macmillan Company.
Rhymed verse In drama is the diff
cult form in which the poet Neihardt
presents two poignant stories Of moth
ers. The wisdom Of his choice may
be questioned. and the question will be
left undecided by reading Of the two
plays, for deftness and even more
than skill are shown in the handling.
Nevertheless, there are crudities that
mar the effect Of poetry which might
have been avoided had the author
chosen the blank verse form, dramatic
poetry's great Inheritance.
Both these one act plays have ap-
peared before in magazines and the
first one, which is called Eight Hun
dred Rubles,' has been told already
in prose. The present version proves
that this story belongs to poetry. 1t
pretends to less than the play "Agrip-
pima" which fills out the little book,
and is more successful partly by rea-
son Of this modesty. In the Roman
play exception might well be taken to
the poets vocabulary, that seems
little weak and thin where gorgeous
ness was to be expected. The ugly
word "blear' was, 1t would appear
from its frequent use, to have been a
common one in Nero's court.
"Agrippina' becomes great poetry
in the last scene, where the daughter
of Germanicus, swept by passion OF
mother love, rejects the thought Of
leading the legionaries in revolt
against the evil son whose plot to rid
himself of her by drowning had failed.

detective who Is accidentally brought
in on the case, finds evidence that
makes him suspect a murder. He re-
solves for the sake of justice to track
down the guilty person. wainwright is
the man naturally suspected, but as he
digs deeper into the mystery Peter
finds other clues that involve three
people. They all seem to have been on
the spot at the same time. To tell
more Of how he unravelled the tangle
and how he stalked the murderer to
