Figures of Speech
An Allegory on
COMEDY OF APPEARANCES
A Review hx Homer Joseph Dodge.
A Review by Homer Joseph Dodge.

About = year and . half ago
James Branch Cabell of Dunbar
ton Grange. virginia. wrote a book
entitled Jurgen which created sucn
q storm OF criticism of various sorts
that II finaily was suppressed by
the New York State authorities.
Now he comes forward with q new
work to- challenge the critics.
What reception this new venture
will receive will be watched with
interest, because Jurgen excitedNthe
whole literary world of America.
The writing cult generally defend
ed the work. holding that 1t was
the most artistic creation which
had been offered by an American In
generations. Mrs. Grundy and the
followers of her ultra-respectable
society declared the book to be por-
nographic In character and UNIT for
publication. The storm raised still
IL resounding about the corridors
OF publishing houses, public libra
ries and Greenwich Village.
With the aid of the New York
Society for the Suppression OF Vice,
James Branch Cabeil learned that
he had written the High History
of Jurgen too early. So, laboring
under the obligation which rested
upon him to perfect his cycle and
leave no link missing. he has re-
kraced his steps and produced Fig
Nres of Earth. As Jurgen proved
too strong a meat for an adoles-
cent American reading public still
under the stern eye Of Nurse Com
stock, some lighter diet must be ad-
ministered in preparation. That
Mr.. Cabefl bY no means despairs
OF bringing his public sooner or
later to the stronger meat Is re-
vealed by his statement in the fore
word of this new book that be
tween the two main cycles Of
Poictesme, as embodied in Les
Geste de Manuel and La Haulte
de Jurgen. more or less compar-
ison Is ipevitable; and therefore ii
is to be hoped that the, Jurgen
epos may some day be made accessi-
BILE to American readers. The
(Gestes (that is this new book. Fig
ures of Esrth) are vital stories,
that, where Manuel faces the world,
Jurgen considers the universe"
LARGELY OF APPEARANCES.
Both works are great allegories
of life written to the accompani-
ment Of the piping Of strange gods.
Too long a stride was taken in the
writing of Jurgen. and IL was sup
pressed. That is the allegory Of the
journey of a mans soul through
the uttermost expanses of the uni
verse. Mr. Cabell called Jurgen a
Comedy of Justice and proved

F air Weather
And Fowl

II the early spring a lot of other
wise sane and law-abiding citi-
zens turn their fancy toward
chicken fancying.
On the theory that anyone with
kindling enough to build a hem
coop. or backyard enough to turn
around in. can raise chickens. they
begin operations. One out of every
hundred beginners raises chickens,
and the best the others can do Is
the dickens.
People seem to think that by
combining a few hazy ideas with a
few puny and unsuspecting chick
ems they can grow rich and have
two eggs for breafsst every morn
ing-both of them good.
As a matter of fact, the cute,
fluffy little articles which are shown
on Easter cards are the biggest
nature fake of the age. No infant
fowl ever had half the beauty that
the advertisements show.
Small chickens arc scrawny and
weak-minded; not downy and in
nocent. And they can die more
easily and in more ways than any
other organism known to civilized
man and the dictionary.
The little cusses always have
tragic childhoods. They are sus-
ceptible to diseases known as pip.
cholera and other unpleasant
sounds. They are easily discour-
aged and quick to despair of life.
They grow melancholy, stand and
look stupidity at the sum and then
topple over and give up the ghost.
Little chickens are feebleminded,
and they will refuse to cooperate
with the hand that feeds them. II
disease doesn't carry them off they
learn to walk about little. and
as soon as. they are 81 rong enough
they walk right under the wheels
of a passing automobile and pass on
into the better life.
little knowledge Is a dangerous
thing-especially little knowledge
of hens.

But these conclusions are in both

Viewed in another light. IL Is dis
covered that the Appearances by
which men customarily judge af-
fairs OF life are treacherous and un-
stable. But that this is so makes
these Appearances no less real, as
attested in the chapters concerning
the extraordinary experiences OF
Manuel with the Personification of
Human Misery in the grim wood OF

the strongest chapters In the book.
There, in month and day. the
young champion, Count Manuel OF
Poictesme, aged thirty years, for.
in the company Of Misery. a day 10
. year.
The story takes the boy Manuel
from the sty where he is tending
pigs through a brief though ex-
tremely busy lifetime, made up very
largely of Appearances. 1t tells OF
his love affairs with Alianora, the
Unattainable Princess, and how.
upon attainment he tired of her:
with Freydis, the strange queen OF
Audela, that mysterious land be-
yond the fire, and how OF her. also.
he tired. And especially, IL tells OF
how, by magic, he won his child
hood sweetheart back from Paradise
and married her, and, indeed, tired
also of her, although for the sake
of Appearances, he never would ad-
init II even to himself-no, not even
to Grandfather Death, who charged
him with the fact in the Room OF
