Some one upon opening the closet door came upon Josephine, Susanna's afflicted child—an arm gone, & leg, an eye, and almost half her hair. And Uncle Julius had said: “We will now sell a sick .doll, ‘whigh: ' “Qh, pardon, papa! Par- don, mamma! It is Josephine! I can't have Josephine sold. Pardon! Par- don!” " A priceless little story.

Locke, author of “The Be- loved Vagabond.” etc. New York: Dodd, Mead & Co. With nine out of ten the first ques- tlon that come to the top upon a} meeting with Willian J. Locke=-after. of course, finding out how he himself is getting along and how the folks are—is one concerning the wherea- houts of Aristide Pujol. Is Pujol kely to 1L around this w agaln soon? Locke seldom gives positive yes or 10 to the question. However, if one goes along In his company, the two are sure, sooner or later, to come upon, not Aristide the “belov " fel-» low himself, but upon some member of his “vagabond” family. So turns out with the adventure in hand. Tim- | othy Swayne . at most, not further| off from A le than second cousin. And while this matter Timothy is, | officially, but half of the guardian of high-handed young woman, hei: neverth the ixious would be. He i Aristide himself.» Two guardians are no more than enough for Suzanne. ut both promptly add to their le- ally defined duties toward the girl i unofficial one of falling in love with-her. Peter Moordius, the other half of the complete guardian, is a fasci ing scamp, a gambler completely concealed under the tog- gery of modern business. Women love villains—till they get them—so uzanne loves this one. Such Is the all-round situati that finally cuts ut Timothy's re b for him—the | fItimate rescue o The vil- jainy of Peter Moordius, coupled with that of Joseph Grabbite: the rich old sinner from whom Suzanne had | inherited, gives to the romance many touches reminiscent of an earlier generation in fiction. The outstand- ing effect is, however, redeemed to the immediate present by the up-to-the-moment _qualities of Su- | anne herself, and the ever-young | personality of Timothy. To be sure, the people and the events are all worth while in their special flavors of Willlam J. Lock: but Timothy and his anxious preoccupations in this matter stand, far and away, ahead of everything else—just as| it the whole had been asranged to project Timothy Swayne, which was not the case at all.

Doran C 4 i Cyril McNelle's gang” is another one of th legal, self- appointed bodies that, every now and then throughout history have gone out after a righteousness that the law itself has failed to secure. A London story, this. Its action is di- rected against the powerful and subtle agencies that are operating to undermine “industry through an In- flamed and rebellious labor element. The fine-spun web embraces pur- chasable men in high places and adroit secret agents and open agi- tators. The damage they are doing is distinct and menacing. The law appears to be helpless.
