Those who have thrilled over Long- fellow's “Saga of King Dlar” (and who, juvenile or adult, has not?) and who have wished that they could learn something more about the facts and legends on which that collection of poems was based, will welcome “Stories of the Vikings.” It is the work of Maurice Dunlap, who has re- cently served as consul at Copen- hagen, Denmark, and who served prior to that as consul at Stavanger, Norway, and at Malmo, Sweden. Dur- ing his occupancy of these posts the author steeped himself in the history and the romance of ancient Scandi- navia. The result is a volume written primarily for young people, but de- lightful to any age. Mr. Dunlap’s book is based primar- on the “Helmskringia” of Snorri Sturlason, un Icelandic bard of the twelfth century. Any direct transla tion, It is explained, would be incom- irehensible to an American, but the author has utilized the lore gathered the ancient skald and has turned it into a series of realistic storfes.

Rather did he in it, one think the makings of an ing story sinee the pe »m who not only know what he wants but g ght for it is bound to find - Blong the way. This is a girl's story—the story of a girl who, in spite of for- tune and all the things that go with it. was bound to be a dancer. Why, not at ail. She was to go to France for schooling instead. So the famil d. But the girl sent Frauce in her stead and beto herself away with a band of gyps free to dance in the greenwood from roing till night. 'hen that young n whao s came along s time too, and——well, that is the story done up in i partnership of adventure from this point on Not the easy glide into matrimony however, that one is accustomed to in novels. For the girl was most per- sistent and it took no end of court- ing and_artful adaptations to her passion for a career to uncover the fact that her r intent” was, af- ter all. a more fundamental thing than to embody the high art of dancing. The life of society, the gypsy 1ife, the personable and rather unusual young man in the near of- fing—and the girl, these give a good portunity for swift-changing line @ action. That is what one fi in this engaging story THE LITTLE TIGRESS: of the Dust of Mexico, Smith. Drawings sketch )lo(\k. ew Putnam'’s Sons. “They are singing ‘La_Cucaracha’. And_every living thing knows they are the dorados—the golden ones who fight and die under the cruel leader- ship of Mexico's greatest bandit chief. They are more than that, these sing- ing ones. They are the last riders of romance. They go to make the final stand for melodrama.” This is the key to which Wallace Smith has pitched these songs of modern banditry. Vivid stuff. out of which one snuffs the desert dust and stands close while these lawless followe of a crafty and relentless chief fight from cover or in the open with such foes as their leader is so fertile in finding. Wallace Smith has done more than to paint dramatic pictures here. For, besides, he makes us feel that he is close to these rough men in understanding, that his storfes are drawn out from deeper sources than the mere picture-making of most writers who try to present Mexico, either in formal study or passing sketch. Brilliant and _interesting work on a theme that fits the pen and pencil of this author and artist as it so clearly makes strong appeal to his own picturesque sense of ad- venture. THE, LUCK OF THE KID, By Ridg- well Cullum, author of “The Man in the Twilight,” etc. New York: G. P. Putnam’s Sons. Bill Wilder, following a Yukon gold trail and at the same time hunting for a lost white child, is the big and genial hero of this pioneer ad- venture. Not much chance for virgin freshness in this quarter any more. An author has to work for what he gets in this region nowadays. But stories cannot be allowed to run out _simply because their particular kind may have been overdone. A lit- tle harder grubbing for the author turns the trick. And here while we come upon the familiar face of the big northwest, and upon the trappers and Indians and villains, upon hair- breadth escapes from many sorts of menace with all of which we are fairly familiar now, we do find in Bill Wilder and what he sets a-going in pursuit of gold and the “kid” a good solid, entertainingly fresh line of adventure. That he finds the gold, and, most of all, that he finds the “kid,” come along toward the end of & fine up-standing, man-size story. TRIUMPH OF THE SCARLET T IMPERNEL. By Baroness Orczy, author of “The Scarlet Pimpernel,” etc. New York: George H. Doran Company. : this, the second appearance of the Seariet Pimpernel at the hands of Baroness Orczy, the French revolution and Robesplerre provide the setting and the objective of the astonishing actlvities of the young Englishman figuring under this titie. To bring Robesplerre to his own guillotine and, meanwhile, to rescue & group of men and women who stand,-at the moment, as the objects of the tyrant's most malevolent designs— these are the motives that bring into play the energy of the Englishman and the art which he possesses of taking on all manner of disguises to facilitate his desizns.

Here s a chance to read the story that {s at the same time a film pro- duction. The theme is of comparative freshness for either picture or romance—that of the amazing power of -the newspaper coupled with the additional fact that this power some- times becomes an nstrument of wrong and suffering to the individual. This is the line upon which “Her Reputation” is developed—the story of a young girl whose present is ruined and whose future is threatened by an active and hostile newspaper influence. Happily for the girl, and for the press. it was proved at the last moment that among newspapers, as among men, the decent far out- number the vile. Talbot Mundy, writer of adventures and romances based on his own far wanderings in India and Africa applics shis ready gift of story-telling here to a plot which he hastens to acknowledge is that of Bradley King herself.

Here are more stories for laughter built by Octavus Roy Cohen around the southern negro in his Kood nature, nis {mitation of the white man, his superstitions, his assumptions of au- thority over his household, his ease in the sunshine, his religlous pre- dilections, his easy consclence, his sonorous and sadly mixed language— these and others of the traits of this interesting and amusing negro Mr. Cohen has combined here in a handful of stories whose entertain- ment produces never a dull moment. never a break in activity nor a lack in surprising situations and clim fusic Hath Harms,” *“The Wi Bite” are suggestive titles in a group of tales that, however much they may laugh, do not torget for a min- fute the art that lies in the making of a good story. .
