Boldly she offers herself to Makimmon:
but she must have her price.
Meta Beggs was the mask smooth and
sterile, of the hunger for adornment, for
gold bands and jewels and perfume and
draperies of silk and scarlet. She was
the naked idler stained with antimony In
the clay courts of Sumaria; the Paphian
with painted feet lettering on the roofs
of Memphis while the blocks of red sand
stone floated sluggishily down the Nile
for the pyramid of Khufu the King; she
was the flushed voluptuousness relaxed
in the scented spray of pagan baths;
the woman with white piled and
powdered hair in a gold shift of Louis
XIV; the prostitute with a pinched
waist and great flowing sleeves of the
Maison Doree She was as old as the
first vice, as the first lust budding like
black blossom in the morbidity Of men
successful, satated.
In considering Mr.. Hergesheimer's
novels his shorter stories must not be
overlooked. There is found an occasional
reader who, protesting not to care for

stimulating delight in '"rolable David" or
"The Dark Fleece" or "Wild Oranges" or
s"Tubal Cain" ''The Dark Fleece" is a story
OF Forty-niner who returns to his New
England home. "Wild Oranges" tells of a
man and woman in an orange grove of
the Georgia coast. The background of
"Tubal Cain" is the blast furnace district
of Pennsylvania in the early nineteenth
century. Seldom has Mr.. Hergesheimer
attained greater dramatic height than
in depicting the encounter between the
relentless hero of "Tubal CAIN" as hard as
his own ron and the bullying dueist from
New Orleans.
To sum up briefly. here is the order in
which Mr.. Hergesheimer's longer books

there and descent from a foundryman. But
how does he come to know Salem, in Mas

stock and traditions, and color of the past ?
What inner sympathy enabled him
to distill human story out of it?"
But in THE Three Black Pennys," which
many regard as his finest novel thus far
1t was not a picture of one period that Mr.
Hergesheimer attempted but pictures of
three. Three men of three different gem
erations move through the tale, yet in a
sense the three men are one in youth in
early maturity and in old age for it is a
story of one blood. for though the in
diyidual may pass 1T is in the blood that
the essential identity lies. Three sharply

story of Gordon Makimmon, middle aged

Old Irish Glass

OLD IRISH GLASS BY Mrs Graydon
Stannus. Frederick A. Stokes Company
"O the Connoisseur Series of books for
collectors there is now added this
very complete little handbook on
Irish glass by writer who may have been
said to be born to the subject since on her
ancestral estates in Ireland glass making
was once practiced. Moreover, Mrs Stan
nus is an authority on the subject, is a
collector of Irish glass and has back
ground of family possessions of this kind
that are very rare and exquisite specimens
of craft no longer practiced in Ireland
In her text, which runs to twelve pages
she tells the history of glass making in
her native country, describes Irish gild-
ing, the characteristics of Irish glass with
a clear explanation of its curious color
and the various shades), the revival of In
terest in this ware with its inevitable trail
of fakes, and a complete list of all the
famous Irish factories, with the dates of
their beginnings and endings.
With this brief introduction there are
also included in the book fifty-three plates
containing several hundred illustrations of
pieces of Irish glass of every conceivable
form. twenty-three plates of "rubbings" OF
cuttings and also several illustrations of
pendants and ornaments implements used
in blowing glass and sketches of factory
interiors. The Illustrations for the most
part are of pieces in private English col
lections as we'll as those in the collection
of the author. thus affording the amateur
of Irish glass in this country to see ex-
amples that only special privilege would
enable him to study abroad. Mr.. Dudley
Westropp's very important work on this
subject treats 1t more from the historical
viewpoint and his illustrations are chiefly
from Ireland's public collections of glass,
so that the American amateur now has at
his disposal two works that form a COM
plete library on an Irish craft the fruit of
which occasionally comes to public sale
here in limited numbers. The pictorial
material i'm both of these books is of first
importance to the amateur collector and
he student of arts and crafts

Concerning the Ladies

THE LADIES !" A shining constellation of
wit and beauty BY E. Darlington The
Atlantic Monthly Press
LIRoM out of the books and the social
record of England the writer of this
sentimentally entitled volume has
plucked nine women as the heroines of
seven essays graced with broad and imita-
tive humor. Thus the patient and long
suffering wife of the great diarist Samuel
Pepys Is made to write such "diurnaI'

her husbands diary the humor being sup

master of shorthand to unravel one pas

read: TOOK occasion to fall out with my

familiar style, the "diurnal' gives his wife's
impressions of his vanities and follies arr

What You Should Know

XII.-Joseph Hergesheimer.


"HE first paper In this series Of
sketches dealing with Mr.. Booth
Harrington pictured the subject fig
uratively Sitting for seven years on
rail fence in Indiana" like the hero of his
novel The Gentleman from Indiana"
Fully twice that number of years Mr. Jo-
seph Hergesheimer had to wait before win
ming appreciable recognition He was
writing industriously with the dawn of the
present century. Yet it was not until the
summer of 1914 that his first novel, "The
Lay Anthony" was published The talent
was always there; the long battle against
encouragement indicates courage Of the
finest order.
As Liewellyn Jones has said: "The first
demand that the larger public makes upon
a novelist is that his personal life shall be
as romantic as his novels. Fortunately
Mr.. Hergesheimer can meet that demand
certainly any one who can recognize ro-
nance when he sees it will recognize it in
dicates he Is Pennsylvania Dutch. Born
February is. 1885, brought up in Presby-
terian home, his youth was passed in
state OF i'll health which interfered with
systematic study but, which gave him
time for the profitable reading of many
paper covered novels. After very little
schooling he entered the Philadelphia !
Academy of Fine Arts at the age of II to
study painting
At Il he came into some money and went
to Italy, living in Venice until his funds
were exhausted. Again at home, he went
off on walking tour in the course of which
he fell in with woman novelist who en-
listed his aid in her proof reading A GER
tain hostility to what he read planted in
him the seeds of authorship He did not
like what she had written and determined
to try fiction himself In a village in the
Virginia mountains he went seriously to
work, writing and rewriting one story from
beginning to end twenty times, part OF it
hundred times For fourteen years he
worked in this spirit Then he sold his
first tale
Mr. Hergesheimer has always found par
ucular JOY in the reconstruction of earlier
periods of American life, and before writ
Ing he has literally drenched himself i'm the
atmosphere of the particular time and en-
vironment in mind. For example, before
line of Java Head" was penned he had
read nearly hundred books dealing with
old Salem as it was in the days of the
clipper ships and the towns maritime SUI

has pointed out. that the author felt while
writing. and the reader feels while reading.
