drawn from it. There Is a little,

thankful, a great deal ci cheer*

tale of mock-mystery, humor and

Pleasure " an earlier book of his,
hitherto unknown on tbis side of
the water, and now published at
just the right moment. We all need
diversion.
The novel of malefactors of great
wealth is in abeyance; Mr. Theo?

This field is worth exploring; the

This brief survey may close with
two novels already published, James
Lane Allen's "The Sword of Youth"
and Gouverneur Morris's "The

This novel is nn excellent example
a l?rice body of current German fleti
dealing in a critical manner with t
! conduct of te Empire'? affairs duri
pre ?. ding tha -?"?ar. Pn
von Heyking deals with the imperi
| diplomatie service, and deals with
with the. unmistakable authority
lirnt-haiid knowledge. Bha was e\
dently lived in the midst of it all, ai
stood a.-ide and observed closely. It
fortunate moreover, that she has he?
her owe tranalator: there is in th
English version nothing to puzzle tl
reader unfamiliar with German waj
The special case with which the auth?
deala may he presented with bias; tl
| general conditions of which it forn
part sound only too true in connect:'
with ?o much of what one has heai
of late of German diplomatic inept
i ude and frvoritiatn.
Thia, then is a story of a riain
young diplomatist of exceptional gift
an Austrian who has cut- red th
German service in his desire t
! further thf- cause of a greater Gei
many. He falls in love with the w-.f
I of a Junker, who gives her a divorce
j on conditions. The two marry, an
i thereafter all- the influence of the ex
husband's family is ?lirccted towar
i the ruiring of his career.
For the sako of the contrast thi
1 particular family of Junkers is showi
in the most, unfavorable light, but
? with certain reservations, the picturi
is true to type. These people ha-.i
served the king for hundreds of yean
faithfully, if without distinction. Il
they are his, he is also theirs; th?
Emperor they cannot see, nor tht
?vider Germany. They have their harr
virtuea, drawn from the niggard soil
url Th they have forced to yield them
sustenance; comparatively poor, they
have practised parsimony from genera?
tion to generation until the beauty of
life has passed from their existence.
All for the king; and th?-n all for the
family the motto requires their
daughters to remain unwed in order
that their dowries may be added to
the family coffers; it demands of the
y< linger -ons a like sacrifice for the
of the greater security of the
elder branch There is s Spartan ideal
in this, but it is not the author's part
te bring it out. She shows us only the
Ugliness, the barrenness, the grasping
calcul?t,on of it all.
Hut the greater part of the action
takes place in Berlin, whither the
Junker goes as a member of the Prus?
sian Diet an agrarian member, of
courae. And here we are taken into
the Foreign Office, we see the influ?
ences, the wire pulling behind the
scenee; we follow the young diplomat
abroad, always under the shadow of
that potent intriguing of the Junker:
crowd. We overhear the grumbling at I
the mistakes made, the blunders com- j
mitted, the obstacles placed in the way i
of talent, until at last, in a Central ,
American republic, the enemy strikes
home. The diplomat is disowned, re?
called, and dismissed. At times one
thinks of Maximilian Harden.
In a paragraph here and there the

which she opposes and exposes in de- !

himaelf spent three days without food,
and "Iick-d -.in- dew from the grass
for want of water." Sleep is the I ?
ing of the man on campaign. Within
a few days Kreisler and his compan?
ions slept through the heaviest bom?
bardment*. They welcomed the risk of
death in battle as a n-hef from the
back-breaking torture of marching.
The musician comes curiously to the
fore in th's record. Kreisler tells u?
that his delicately tuned ear soon
taught him to differentiate between the
noise made by shells fired in opposite
direction?, and even to Si the acme of
their parabolic Sight:
In talking over my experiences
with an artillery officer, I was told
the fact was known that the shells
soundci different going up than
when coming down, hut this know!
edge ' I ! for practical
purpose-. When I told him that
I could actually determine by the
sound the exact place where a
shell coming from- the opposing
batteries was reaching its acme,
he thought that this would he of
great value in a ease where the
position of the opposing battery
?vat hidden, and thus could be bl?
eated. He apparently sg/ohe to his
com?nan?ier, for a few days later
I was sent on a reconaoitring tour,
with the object of marking on the
map thi> exact ipet where I thooi
the hostile ?.hells were reaching
their acme, and it was later on
reported to me that I had suc?
ceeded in giving our batteries the
almost exact range of the Russian
guns.
There are some anecdotes here of
the absence of hatred between the men
of the opposing armies once they come
into actual contact. Brief truces by
common unspoken ron-i r.t are fre?
quent, and on one occasion a Ku
officer and a private came into the
Austrian trenches under a flag of truce
to ask for food for thcmaelvci and
their company. They returned loaded

LAIS TO HER DOO.
(Emma A. Opper, In May '1Srr1bneT/e'*.)
You're a droll flower that lift? it? face
in meek
Obeisance to the skies;
You cannot smile, poor wightt you
cannot speak,
But love yearns from your eye?.
I have blenched white ander the erne!
blaze
Of scorning Blancos bent;
Never was blame in your adoring
gaze -
You hold me innocent.
Lovers that lightly come ss lightly go,
Forget me and forsake;
Should you be torn from me, comrade,
I know
Your little heart would break.
And if I whispered to you how I fought,
Shrinking with fear and hate,
The Doom that dragged me down and
made me naught,
The ruthless, grinning Fat?
And how to see a white rose smites me
sore,
Sets me to brood and grit^t,
Because they frew beside my mother's
door
You'd listen; you'd believe.
You joy with me, you sorrow when I
sigh;
I am your shining star,
0 little wistful friend! And when I
die
And creep to heaven's bar,
If then some angel, kinder than the
rest,
Shall say, "Forgive her sin;
It is a tired soul, a fevered breast;
Forgive her; let her in" -
And if I csnnot hide you 'g?inst my
heart
And somehow take you through,
And if they chide me, thrusting us
apart,
111 stay behind with you.
MOTHERS
The time will come when your daughter will face yon, and
for the moment you will be nothing but another woman to her.
She will weigh you.
Will you be found wanting?
she: did not ask you to be her mother.
