TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 1917. GULLIBLE’S TRAVELS; by Ring W. Lardner. A bock by the author of "You Know Mi, At/' written frankly for th* purpose of making you laugh. Tht colored illustra tions by May Preston arc of a strictly up to date character. The first syllable of the hero's name is the only thing which thia hook has in common with that rlaa «ic so familiar tn ail lovers of Kng lish literature. This poor Gullible has no romance in his make-up and b chasing the illusion of society, as ♦ aged on by his wife. After *i*«nd mg a small fortune at Palm Beach in a vain effort to attach herself to the elite the poor woman Is taken for a chambermaid by one of the exclusive few and ta glad to fall bark upon the kindly sympathy of poor old husband, who takes her to an unfashionable spot to finish her outing. Gullible and his wife are a real good sort, only she has been stung with the social ladder ambi tion. The moral of this tale Is. If you’ve never been to Palm Beach, try something else, if it's only a visit to Coney Island: that is. unless you are many times a millionaire or have the skin of a rhinoceros.

Buckrose Another story of small town English life, centering around the daughter of a poor rector and he- young lover who ia even poorer. This story is not equal to those of the same author which have been previously reviewed In these col nmns It lacks a certain quaint originality and Is much more biual There is nothing to critic! ;>nd nothing much to remark, for it Is rather colorless In in*id* nt and character. No one imagines that in eident is necessary to a great story tot the reaction on characters of events, either large nr small and the inner life of the different ones Is tbo eternal theme which the mas ter hand must play with ever in <Teasing variation This book lacks vitality There Is something woe fully weak about It. The rector and his daughter are both a little 100 unselfish for this life and the mother might have a virtue or two without straining a point. Instead of be One Woman’s Story BY CAROLYN BEECHER. Chaptor XIII. Jt is only human nature to value a pooee»«k»n not entirely because you want IL but because someone else valnea It. Robert bad never seemed more desirable In roy eye« than when Myrtle Caldwell told m*- how mtich they all liked him. how proud I should he of him -and es pecially when she etnphaslxed whs- Holland T<ansijig find said "Why she simply raved about him' She says his dignity, his sen ournees, were the more attractive because they were so unusual He rsprasvnts a type she ha* never known, so the more ln« creating." Myrtle confided, "Ned mad* all aorta of fnn of Holland, teased her unmercifully. He declared he w*s gotng to tell you to look out or you'd lose your husband, snd a lot more nonsense. You know Holland Is a great, pal of Ned ." Did I imagine It or was there Just a note of wistfnlness in Myrtle'll vote#' If so. 1 forgot It In ray reseotment that Holland T.an*lng should "rave" over my hus band. his unusual personality, and talk of him as a "type." From the very first I was jealous of Holland I<anslng, and It really was not surprising tbst It should be so. She was one of the most fascinating creatures 1 have ever seen. ThII. willowy, sinuous grace in every movement A Nasimovs sort of a girl Her hair was a dull bronae, almost a greenish bronxe in some lights; snd her eyes matched perfectly Her skin was of daxxling whiteness, with no trace »*f color save when she was excited, then a faint flush like the blush in the heart of a delicate rose would * ome and go Hhe used neither rouge nor powder The only means she took to enhance her wonderful beauty was a faint blue line which lengthened her bronxe eyes, and drew attention to the curling lashes which. In contradiction to her eyes, were black "A most unusual type’" Robert bad -aid «Hre|easly, that first night b • met her. and now she also thought of him as a "type" Whenever Robert waa late In *oming home I now tortured myself by picturing him with Holland Lan sing She waa an orphan, and scan dalously rich. Acting on Mr. ('aid w* ||'a advice ahe had consulted Rob trr MurkraT ffWies Aboiit wring Tfirear tnents, necessitating visits to his office I tried to school mynelf not to * are. to realize that I waa foolish lv tormenting myself I vacillated bet ween periods of meekness in which I worried, and worked to plcasg Robert, and wild whirls of temper which I concealed from •bin and m total disregard of hla personal comfort. We had given a dinner to the t vldwells. and of course. were «'hlig>d to Include Holland Tensing lo me (t was ope long drawn out agony. hut Robert complimented iu< uu ihe dinger, and also on my BOOK REVIEWS ing a book which anybody might enjoy like "Rpray on the Windows" and "Gay Morning." by the same auther. this Is about sufficiently di luted nourishment for the young girl. George ||. Doran A Cos., publish ers. New York $1.35. • • • THE ADVENTURE* OF JIMMY DALE; by Frank L. Packard. A mysterious story of crime with a bona fida society millionaire for the chief criminal. "The Gray Heal" isn't a seal at all but a man who gets busy period Ically and does all sorts of things to safes and locks with a neat little kit of burglar's tools. But he Is not a Dr. Jewyll and Mr. Hyde as ine might ruppoee. but a first class fellow whom you thorly like in the very first chapter. Why all this bur glarising and mystery then? Well, If one were to tell that, why would you read the story? I* It not a gem of literature, Just an Interesting, hair-raising sort of thing with a deep-dyed plot. Oh. yes. there is a girl. There always is and we leave her and Jimmie together on the top of a tenement house while the crowd below thinks they are burned up in the house. The rover on the book says this is "a novel of mystery, love, adventure and thrill." George ||. ftomn Cos, publian ers. New York. $1.35. • • # THE NEW UNIVERSITIES DIC TIONARY; edited by George J. Hager, who has previously edited a number of dictionaries and en cyclopedias and compiled the chronology of the world In the New Standard Dictionary. This Is a most engaging volume; a whole library in Itself. It Is tnund in soft black leather, printed In clear, excellent type ami contains all the English found In the ordi nary dtctbirary and «lie newest words in scientific ind technical vocabu lanes. Besides all this It has 25 supplementary dictionaries; one of Americanisms. atomic weights, aviation; automobiles, baseball: football, military and naval terms; music; photography; wireless tele graph' vords of like and opposite meaning etc. In fact there ia little Information that cannot he found under some head In the complete and valuable volume. There are appearance, then spoiled It all by saying "What a picture Miss I-unalng wr* in those green draperies! Hhe know- how to brln,; out her good points by wearing the right colors." "Perhaps if I had a« much money lo spend as she does I might make as i;ood an appearance ” I retorted "You looked very handsome, my dear. b*rr Holland Lamdrig is an an usually beautiful woman I imag ine she would attract In the plain cst clothes Then, too her mind Is as unusual a- her appearance. She has a mnn s grasp of affairs." Robert slum bled on Every word he said stabbed me like a knife. "1 wish you took as much Interest in vital questions as she does." "How ian I h«- interested tn any thing when I am doing the work of a servant?" I burst out, stung by the comparison *T did not notice any marked dif ference when we had Matilda”’ he returned sarcastically. Had I been honest with myself I should have acknowledged the Jus tice of Robert’* remark. ev#*» (bo It hurt me cruelly. I had been so Intent on nursing ray own loneli ness. so occupied in pitying myself, that I had taken no interest in any thing else. Itays and hours which 1 might have spent In reading or study hqd been wasted In brooding Miserable myself, I had made Rob ♦t 4 miserable also. 1 now recalled that we used to discuss .books and some of tbe more popular move ment*, but since our marriage I bad no* been interested. So he found Holland l,anaing'a keen Interest in outside affairs tbe more refreshing. Several limes I had overheard them talking politics. Once I (heard bet say sh** thought "every man should b*- a politician, then politics would be cleaner.” and again. "Yes, I know Mr. Mulhany and his wife, they are wonderful in their own way Hhe has been such a help to him and yet she is so retiring. A little brown mouse of a woman I sett responsible for the fact that ft* b* rt had ever met Holland l*n >ing I had Insisted that he go to rile Caldwell's dinner. I often wondered If I had not done ao it he would ever have been thrown • nth dangerous propinquity with her’ Then I decided It was fate, and (hat what I did or left undone would have made no difference. W*y M H char gome women aeem to exercise a fascination over every man they meet? Holland lansing was one of this kind I was posl live that Myrtle was unhappy at limes because of her, still It did not lessen my own Jealousy to know that Ned Caldwell was also at tracted "How long shall Mias latmdng be wUh you?" I ask**d Myrtle. *oh, indefinitely’” she replied. "You know she is a distant rela tive of Ned. a third or fourth cousin Hhe ia so absolutely alone In the world that one can t help be Ing sorrv sot her. even with all her money”’ several essays on the evolution of the English language, syntax, ety mology. punctuation, etc. On the whole It would be difficult to say enough In praise of this book It seems to be a combination of plain dictionary, encyclopedia, history, grammar, practical Information on all sorts of matters, government, art. science, and almost anything one could mention. Instead of delving in numerous volumes, under a ■ va riety of heads and then not finding what one wants, he may now have It within easy reach In one comfort able book, not too large to carry snout.

Anew volume of letters from a eels made merchant of his xon. Old Gorgon Graham, who brought up his son with such purely Ameri can worldly wisdom, from the stand point of the Chicsgo packer, and brought smiles of delight to many dyed In the wool Americans, has be come a trifle the worse for years, physically, but shows no decay of mental acumen.

New York. • • • PLAYS OF THE NATURAL AND SUPERNATURAL; by Theodore Dreiser, the great American nov elist whose book, "The Genius." Is causing ao much disturbance to the Vic* Society of New York. These plays of Mr. Dreiser easily lake their place beside those cl Isb- n. Brieux and Maeterlinck. They are radical tn their social lessons, exquisite in their depth or feeling and symbolic like those ot the great Belgian. Just how any virile mind ran coci*lder that Mr. Dreiser is a harmful factor in the country, it ti* difficult to imagine. The case of "The Genius" Is now being tried in the courts, and the Author's league of America as well as the foremost writers of Great Britain are behind the author. I'he present volume contains a pfny which for pathos **mi dramatic power can only be compare*! with •h* "Maternity” of llrleux From .* literary standpoint it is perfect. If ia called "The < l»ri in the Coffin,” and each character Is a very cosmos of the emotions of the universal life. The entire life of "the girl" Is felt by a few words from those About the coffin and the most perfect touch Is that of the little, simple, old woman who feigns complete ig norance while knowing the entire story - Mr. Dreiser ta an artist He is one of the very few Americans who sees American life as it Is and Is able to find a soul In tbe hard, commer cial tawdryness of tt all. His la the mAglc touch which transforms the common, ordinary, dally struggle of men and women Into something heart breaking, noble and divine. There Is no circumstance ao sordid but Theodore Dreiser can see be neath it the cause, the excuae and tbe possible good His la a big soul, and America would better recognize her geniuses than wait until Europe has shown them to her. It was not until England had found l’oe and Whitman that we were able to un derstand that here, at last, we had produced a poet.

Mr. Hay believes that si the Am erican and the Britisher Jjvere to "get together" they would /lear up a whole lot of difference* and prob ably agree on all subject* regarding the war. That ia. the kmertcsn would ogre* with the Britisher, nev er vlee versa. The book is written as a conversation between two men and the most vital questions are asked on each side and answered We understand the questions asked l*y Mr. Hay. They are so Intensely English and exude seft satisfaction with every word. Bui the uucaUaos which he puts Into the mouth of the American are of so abject a sort, ao almost apologetic and servile that we fail to recogut**- any coun tryman of ours. Speaking of the Revolutionary War aa a "single re grettable Incident In England's long and varig'ited colonial history" Is putting It mildly, to say the least Mr. Ilay seems to be fair and un prejudiced, but he is so obsessed with his concentrated British per sonality that the American reader will be unable to separate the wheat from the tare# Poubleday, rag-* A <’*». publish et*.
