My dear Mr. Coolci
Thank
'klndneBa in saving mo such a groat treat aa
that of- having' jay attention oalled to "The
Great Hunger," I am aprry that I was unable
to read tttle. book immediately upon rooelpt of
It. I am in the midBt of tho galley proof of
a book upon which I am working, and I had read
Until I wao mentally and physically very tired.
Upon receipt of your second letter, I took time
to scan tho book. Having done do, I shall not
bo satisfiod until 1 reread it without .miBoing
a. single word.
Tho book 1b written in such fine litdrary
style that one reads it without givln3 a con
scious thought to tho question of style, tho
entire attention being concentrated upon tho
faithful simplicity of -tho. delineation of char
acter. I can not recall, having read a book in
yoprs, which is so uttorly satisfying from every
point of viow, and I Imagine ,tho denouement ifl
that at which all of ua arrive after Fate has
dono her worst. I wish that tho book might have
a very wide circulation,' since tho idea that, it
embodies of helping God to materialize through
each human being following a God-given Impulse
in a last extremity 1b the only way' in .which a
happy millennium can come to earth.
Again thanking you, I am

A Great Love Story, By
Joseph Conrad
A reader says
" 'The Arrow of Gold was three books to me. I read it
three times with a new emotion each time. I have heard
it said that Conrad was hard reading that his story is
always less than his style. I have read on and on in 'The
Arrow of Gold,' hurried on by the swift action, led on by
irresistible lure of Dona Rita, truly a woman of all ages, and
only at the end was I conscious that this absorbing love
story had been told with great art that there had been any
style at all." Net, $1.50; leather, $2.00r

KIPLING, POET
OF REAL MEN
His New Volume of Verse Is a
Metrical Commentary on
Great Issues
-the publication of n new volume of
VT.C y ni"Inr' Kipling might be
made the occasion for an extended essay
on his qualities as n poet. It doubt
less will be thus utilized bv those
periodicals which hate room for such
matters. ) the lifted spate nwill
nble heie but one or two points can
be touched upon. A reading of the
new olume. "The Years lletween."
Impresses one with the immunity of
Kipling from the criticism which
Tennjson in his Inter jenrs leveled
against the jounger generation of
poets. He said Hint great so lal and
political questions were pressing upon
the world for solution, but that the
erse makers seemed to be unaware of
them. They were writing ballads nnd
londeaux nnd triolets, nnd frittering
nway their time with amiable futilities
instead of summoning their generation
to the tasks which confronted it.
ivipnug lias not wnstei ns time
writing pretty orscs. Nor has he de
oted himself to discussion in meter of
abstractions. Perhaps he (an best y
described as a metrical editorial writer,
dealing with the problems of the Hritish
empire ns they are affected by woild
nffnirs. Most of his poetry of recent
years has been called out bv some
occasion on the significance of which
he has been compelled to make com
ment. There is, for example, "The
Unworn." written in IDO'J when (ice
many proposed .that Knglnnd should
help her in n naval demonstration
ngainst Vene.uela to collect her debts.
H('i protested against leaguing "anew
with the (loth and the shameless Hun,"
and. Incidental! v. was the first to apply
to the modern (lermnns the term Hun.
Then there is his poem on the denth
of King Kdwnrd. n splendid resume
of the greatness of the man and the
empiie which he served. A large uum- '
tier or the poems in the Miluine were
written between 11)14 and 1!)1S ind
den! with the war. In n seiies of
epitaphs he has comnressed olmnes of
iconinient into brief i-pace. Here is what
he calls the "Common 1'orm" of a sol
dier's tombstone inscription:
If anv question why we died.
Tell them because our fathers lied
This is followed immediately bv an
epitaph for "A Dead Statesman
rends :
It
I c ould not dig. I dared not rob,
Therefore I lied to pleai-c the mob
Xoiv all 1115 lies are proxed untrue
And I must tace the men I slew.
What tale shall sae nie hero among
Mine angry and defrauded joung?
These nre words thnt sear as with
it hot iron nnd they nre of the. kind
that make Kipling the modern poet
that real men like to read.
