Marie Corelli.

The highbrow critics jeered her
name, and said her fiction was a
shame. She couldn't write worth
20 cents, declared the come-to-
judgment gents. But queens would
lay aside their crowns, and doff
their ermine hand-me-downs, to
read Corelli's latest yarn, that critics
all denounce and darn. And prel-
ates, tired of tithe and text, of
questionings by souls perplext. of
problems old and problems new,
were glad to find quiet pew. and
there peruse till darkness fell the
tales Corelli told so we'll. And on
the lonely, windswept downs the
shepherds. poor and simple clowns,
while toiling through Corelli's page,
thought her the wonder of the age.
The plowman paused to rest his
team, whose fianks were wet with
sweat and steam; and from his cum
merbund he drew stained Corelli
book or two The sailors on the
struggling barks. the plutocrats. the
easy marks, the fishers seeking
canned sardines. the actors in their
limousines, the winners and the
also-rans, were numbered with Cor
elli fans. So let the stall-fed critics
jeer around Corelli's snowy bier
The highbrow critics cannot reach
the common people when they
preach; to please each other they
proceed to write the painful. caustic
screed; they pile their brochures on
the shelves. for no one reaSs them
but themselves. And wise Corellis
sidestep art and strive to reach the
human heart.

FRANCE CONTINUES
 $IOO,OOO,OOO CREDIT
Six Months Renewal Termed
 Precautionary Step
(By Associated Press.)

PARIS, Sept. 1.-The $1O0.OO0.OO0 credit extended by J. r. Morgan and company to the Bank of France six months ago> has been renewed for six months upon conditions similar to the preceding credit.
 The renewal came after negotiations between Thomas w. Lamont, represent ing the American Banking firm, and Georges Robinson, governor of the Bank of France. According to the bank the renewal was obtained simply as q precautiOn for the future, as there is no need or intention to use the credit at present.
 The credit was originally extended tc assist in the fight against the deprecia tion of the franc.
 The Bank of France today issued the following statement:
 "Messrs. J. F. Morgan, and company have decided in. their name and in the name of the banks associated with them to maintain at the disposal of the Banl of France the credit of $100, 900, ,O0C which terminates September 12 and oi which the fraction used had .been re paid integrally by the Bank of France several months ago"
