in its characterization of famous men, like Kitchener,

"I.ucindu" in the best novel Antheny
Hepe ever wrote. Indeed, few contem
porary novelists, ever wrote a hotter one.
It does net beleiiR te the "Prisoner of
Zendn," "Itupcrt of Hentzau" ncIioeI
of reiiuintif adventure, nltlieiiRh there
arc thrilling moments in it. It is the
utery of the udvcnttirt' of the soul of n
vtniniin. in which truth nnd henuty nliinc
in sharp contrast with selfish nnd sordid
ambition.
The utery is told in the first petsnn
by the man with whom hhe finally finds
hnppincbs, a man several years elder
than she, who liked her from thu ilrstT
but did net discover till lung nftnrwnrd
thnt he loved her. It begins with the
day set for her marriage te n cousin of
the man who tells the tulc. He vers her
in a taxlcub two or three hours before
the v, cilding. When that hour nt rives
she has disappeared, no one knows
where. It is suspected that she hns
fled with a jeiitig Spaniard who knew
her in Knglnnd, and in whose pnlacc
in Venice she hnd lived With her mother.
Then the war breaks out there is no
war story In the book and the man
telling thu story finds her in southern
Krnui-c, where she is earning her living
as a seamstress. She had married the
hpaniaid, but he was awny gambling
te get money, ir, appears inter. The
man discovers then that the girl at
tracts him and he keeps track of her.
She finally breaks with her husband
when she discovers that he has been
getting money for her relief from the
woman who wanted te marry the mnn
from whom she fled and who ulthiiatelj
did mnrrj him. And the husband find-
ing that she will net return te him ar
ranges u dinner nt which he plans te
kill himself. His nerve fails him. but
his valet, from whom he had bought a
lottery ticket that had brought him
wealth, sheets him in a mad terror
when discovered ill an act of theft. The
way is thus opened for that llving-hup-plly-ever-after
which novel readers en
joy. Hut the end Is se logical nnd in
evitable that the device used te tiring it
about losses thnt nrtlflcittlity which this
bald telling gives it.
The exposition of the churneter of
Lutiniltt nnd the exhibition of the prog
ress of the man's love for her are de
scribed with consummate abilitj.. Ne
man who had devoted his life te psycho
logical novels could have done It better.
The author's skill in plot nnd situation
makes it n honk which has attractions
lacking in the novel of pure pr-j etiology,
