How ever Albert Tayson Terhune, baj turned the trick. The Woman, made into a novel by him from the play of tne same name by William C. De Millc, stands n a class by itself, anu 1'cfnre it all p-ejudice must be thrown to the winds. Mr. Terhune has sue (ceded in combining the dramatic quality of the piay with a superb lit erary quality furnished by himself, and the result is an engrossing book ' which stands entirely upon its owu merits. It is safe to say that in its present form The Woman will achieve the same prominence among reader of fiction, as it did among theatre goers when produced by David Be lasco.

It all revolves about the effort of Jim Blake, boss of the political machine, to uncover some scandal in the life of Standieh, leader of the reform, which will prevent Standieh from being elected speaker of the house of representatives, and which will secure the office for Blake's son-in-law. Standish is seem ingly blameless, but finally it Is . dis covered that in years past lie has been involved in an affair with a wo man. To find the woman is the prob lem and Wanda Kelly, a hotel tele phone operator, Is picked by Blake as being the ons best able7 to accomp- lish the task.
