In Cotton Wool"

IN corToN Wool. =, Py ~ W, p; B., Maxwell.
1912
a LONG time ago Mr. Arnold
~ Bennett dubbed Mr.. w. B.
"a Maxwell an unimportant
sentimentalizer. A short
time ago Sir Conan Doyle knighted
Mr.. W. B. Maxwell as our greatest liv-
ing novelist. The truth of the case
lies probably between the austere
grimness Of Mr.. Bennett and the
credulous innocence of Sir Conan
that in this country Mr.. Maxwell is
known best by his lesser sentimental
melodramas like "The DEVILS Garden"
and "The Mirror and the Lamp and
hardly at all by his greater fictions
like "The Guarded Flame" and Mrs
Thompson" Though he has been writ
ing for twenty years Mr.. Maxwell has
not founded night school of younger
novelists, nor has he joined band of
literary outlaws in splendid greenwood
isolation. Add, too, the curious fact
that he is the son of the lady who
wrote Lady Audley's Secret" and you
have problem difficult to solve.
All Of Mr.. Maxwel's novels, from
"Vivien" to "In Cotton WOOL" are
shaped in almost an identical mold of
expression and development, and
though they differ in time and scene
and characters, they all set forth a
single developed theme. The wages of
sin is death; character passes through
the fiery ordeal Of experience and diff
cult temperament; you can never es-
cape the fate engendered by circum-
stance and the shock of spiritual weak
ness rotted by the seeds Of it's own de-
struction; here are the invariable con-
tents of the Maxwell novel. "In Cotton
Wool" expounds the vicious selfish
ness Of protected egotsm which
leaves the tragedy Of a cheated love,
cowardly evasion of life's toll, and the
final visitation of madness in it's re-
morseful wake. Lenny Calcraft is
less inspired creation than Sir Will
lovghby Patterns, and none Of the
other characters are immortal figures.
None the less Mr.. Maxwell is a serious
and conscientious artist Of sustained
competence and skillful commentator
upon the penalties which wait on spirit
ual corruption. A. d. d.

selves down as masterful and brutal.
1t Is pretty dream, and should not
be subjected TO q scrutiny too cold.
And taken as such, this Is very fine
example.
Anyhow, Kilbuck did not get the
husband, child, and sister, upon des-
olate island for more than half
year TO starve her into subjection--a
course which was In itself confession
Of weakness. And The best Of the book
is the recital Of that Robinson Crusoe
experience; It does show most inti-
mate knowledge and love Of the wild

lifelke and diverting Indians in it, too;

Detective stories arc also pabulum
for the starved instincts Of musculin-
ity. The best kind, it Is we'll known,
begin with murder; and J. S. Flet-
cher rightly follows chat convention in
The Middle Of Things" He has. how
ever, invented general method of
his own, for the working out of the
attendant mystery. He does not call
in any super-mind to deduce from
footprint and cigar ash that the n,ur-
derer was cross-eyed sailor VITA a
collar stud tattooed on the back of his
neck, and just off lumber boat from
Valparaiso. On the contrary, he un-
ravels his yarn in manner disconcert-
ingiy like that in which murder nys-
ferries are cleared up in real life. First
one person and then another wanders
in and tells what he or she knows,
that is all; and finally, the whole busi-
ness is plain. His ingenuity is chiefly
displayed in connecting the mystery IN
the first place, inventing a set of cir
cunlstances which will lead up to the
terrible deed. He perceives that a
murder of itself is happening 80 mon
strous that the motives behind it are
more engrossing than any detective
performance could be. OF course, il
you can have both a brilliant bit of
detecting, and well planned murder,
SO much the better; but q Sherlock
Holmes is naturally rarer than a Grim
inal.
Whether it is more to my credit or
the authoRs discredit that I guessed
the murderer in "The Middle of

reader will have to decide.
There is more comedy in "The Twen-

"Razorre" was the name which the
Master had invented for his poet-hobo,
and before the hike was over, such was
the masterful magic of language and

VI the Critic, reverently;
Il, but what shall be said Of
raking up the forgotten
mlsdeeds of that model of civic virtue,
Kansas? A temerarious act if not i'm
pious. Only Kansan would have the
hardihood to dare it, unless it may be
justified by the moral drawn therefrom.
States yet unregenerate and uneasily
conscious OF the fact, may read Mr.. Nc
Meals account Of the wild youth Of
Kansas and take heart on learning
that the Sunhower State was not
always so smugly saved, as we know IL
to be now through the eulogies Of
William Allen White. The roots Of it's
present rectitude were watered with
gore and whisky. Not without reason
was it known as bleeding Kansas. ?
After all, there is no better material
for the making Of saint than re-
formed rake.
The author of this book of revela-
tions is we'll qualified for his task.
1t modestly appears in the course Of
his narrative that he is q pioneer

that he has knack of graphic and
dramatic presentation; he offers model

quest of many readers, as they deserved
to be,
They cover a period presumably
within the memory Of the writer, be-
ginning Immediately after the Civil
War, and concluding appropriately
Governor Henry Allen. OF course, he
was not Governor then. He was him
self mere reporter. Judging bv the
anecdote in which he figures, 1t may be
that ne learned thing or two about
the proper limits of newspaper COM
ment from the Farmers Alliance,
which, without the slightest regard for
his future greatness, hailed him down
with indignity out of an attic, whence
he was eavesdropping upon their con-
vention and only let him off from a
summary punishment because to their
regret there was no law to cover his
case, and they didn't know the uses
of an injunction.
But that is ahead of the story. Be-
fore Henry Allen there were signs and
portents, even Egyptian plaques such
as signifed the coming of the law-giver
Moses--Indians, bad men, buffa O, cy-
clones, grafters, locusts, and loco weed,

chronicled without fear or favor,
