He knew that Professor McMaster had been at work on tho book for aeveml years, and that ha had been examining the private papers of the (treat. merchant. There nro more than l0,000 documents, consisting of let ters, ships' papers, reports of prize court trials and other papers Inci dental to thp transaction of business. "It must be a fascinating volume," said Doctor McFabre, who Is espe cially interested In biography. He has told mo more than once that there is no better May to learn the history of a period than to read the lives of tho men who wore. Us leaders. In that way, he says, one can discover what problem presented themselves for solution and how those problems affected society. 'The lite of Olrard ought to out even looking at It," said I. "The book Is neither so dull as Owen thinks, nor Is It so Interesting as you would llko It to be. I coiiu'ss I was disap pointed when I read It because I had expected the Life would have disclosed the romance which seems to have tired our Imagination. Hut the book docs not contain It.

Listen to this: 'Five gourdes were asked because It was not possible to know what would bo the loss on paper money.' The context shows that It Is explanatory of a business trans action. And I tlnd page after page given over to quotations from letters In which prices of commodities are stated nnd directions for selling them glen to his agents. That sort of stuff docs not Interest me." "Thero must bo something beside business letters In the book," 'snld Doctor McFabre. "Glrard lived through the most exciting period of the history of the modern world, next to our own. Ho was here at the be ginning of our lleolutlon. His busi ness was affected by the French lloo lutlon nnd the war of 1812. He was our greatest merchant and biggest prlxate banker. There must have been romance In his life: If not per sonal romance, then the romance of great enterprises. I do not under stand how It Is possible to wrlto a life of him which would not thrill the imagination. You aro unfair to Mc Master, Owen, to Judge him by a casual glanco at his booK." "Owen Is no moie unfair than you aro, doctor, to get enthusiastic wlth- tt does not stir the Imagination. I do not think Doctor McMaster set out to wrlto a "popular life. He has writ ten a book which describes with pains taking accuracy of detail the history of the business career of Stephen Olrard and the difficulties which he encountered because of tho unsettled state of the world nt the time. He could havo made It so Interesting that one would read It whether he cared particularly for Glrard or not. Ho has chosen to pack It full of Informa tion which will gle to those who nie already Interested the knowledge which they desire. It Is an Invaluable contribution to the commercial hls- i tory of the world from 1775 to 1S31. Doctor McMaster has explained the I political conditions of Europe fully enough for the reader to understand i their effect on the enterprises of Glrard. He tells how the merchanf first dealt with San Domingo and France, and how he was forced to shift his trading to China and then to South America.

In his early ttading days he was fianhly a smuggler. He ndvlsed his agents to use bribery If necessary. He engaged In privateering, which was a form of piracy, but made no money out of that and gave it up. But he was no greater offender In these respects than other business men of his time. Thero Is abundance nf material out of which to construct the hlstoiy of his com-1 ' merclal career, hut there, is almost none out of winch the man can tie made to live as a human being," "Perhaps that Is because he was a mere money-maWIng machine," sug gested Owen. "That may be," said I. "But then how are you going to explain his be quest of more than 16,000,000 to Phila delphia to found a school for orphans?" "He had no wife and no children nnd there was no other use he could have made of his money." said Owen. "He had a lot of kinsfolk In France," I said. "The money might have been left to them. He chose.'rather, to give It to the city where he mado it. But as to McMaster's book, I should have liked It better If the author had used a little dramatic imagination In the use of his materials and had attempted to Interpret the external life of the man as the expression of nn Inner purpose and spirit. Somebody will do this some time and give us a popular life of Glrard which will be a fascinat ing study of the. big business man when big business was In Its Infancy.

There Is a burden that makes a warring country sad, sometimes ex pressed in hidden gnashing of the teeth or the hilarious expressions of the pop ulace.
