This “by a new and as yet unknown English writer” exhibits a gift for writ- ing characteristic of the dozens of younger English novelists, so-called In Mr. Agate’s case the gift is somewhat vitiated | by a preciousness of manner suggesting, in the early pages, George Meredith, and scarcel. andoned for a moment until he is deep in his story. This begins on page forty-five, and at that point his preciousness, abandoning Meredith, be- comes that of Stevenson. Later, in the delineation ‘of an uncle, a Lancashire manufacturer, the comparison with Sam- uel Butler, made by the publishers, estab- lishes itself. In one thing the book is strikingly successful.

Very The Romantic Woman, by Mary Bor- den. (Alfred A. Knopf.) We under- stand that this book presents, in the guise of fiction, “the personal story of a Chi- cago heiress who married into the British military aristocracy.” The result, for the Chicago heiress, was a pitiless surprise, LAUREL- ~* in-the-PINES LAKEWOOD, NEW JERSEY OPEN THE YEAR ‘ROUND OUR vacation dreams come true at Lakewood.
