ABOUT MARY STUART

fa"-oinntiun nf that wonderful woman I
and his own Jaeobile leaninc tninht

resiU in a fiilslfiontion of history. I he
spell of the Scottish ipieen is noltHtiR
and everlastinc. 1 reoall boinc delayed
onee at a small inn in the upper llhone
valley, on one of those days of exhaust
inif 4ieat and dimt which visit that long
Rully in the mountains. It was tho
Klarlnc to co out nt midday and there
was nothing to do but eek some en
tertainment within. I found n little
book on "Mary Stuart. Queen and
Martyr." hy an excellent French abbe.
and obtained a new nnglo on tho sub
.feet. "A queen, joung, beautiful, un
fortunate and of the true faith." Surely
here is enough for the exercise of that
by no means the least creditable proc
ess of human activity, the weaving of
myths. Tlio good abbe had written
quite an eloquent book, however; the
evidence fidverse to hi thesis little
troubled him. There is. of course, his
tory, nnd there is liction, nnd we must
confess thnt tlieto are times when tho
Insight of the poet surpasses, in read
ing tlio truth, the more rational proc
esses of the historian. "Mary Stuart,
a History," may well doslgnnte a work.
Perhaps Mr. Prinkwater Is wle in
calling his "Mnry Htuarl" "a play."
lint tlio poet's insight is in it, nnd,
when nil lias been said, the Queen of
Scots ioniums one of the enigmas of
history.
MU. imtXKVATi:irS drninn opens
with two men. an older and n much
jounger, conversing in an IHnburgh
room of about "WOO or later." Th
jounger has brought his trouble tn his
wiser friend, not to much for ndvice ns
to talk about it. after the manner of
some natures. His adorable young
wife. Margaret, lias formed another
attachment ami has told him fiankly
and luuiestlv. Neither lias been untrue
nor unloving; he has proved merely in
sufficient. Hut, of course, the young
husband cannot admit this, or even so
much ns i-ro it. "If she live finely,"
says the elder man, "she will take her
hue from no man unless bo is un
worthy." Tho young husband declares
that he will shnro his love with no one,
and the answer comes; "Hoy, will you
not share the sun of heaven, the beauty
of the world?" Is Margaret, the joung
wife, "to have no better luck than that
poor queen?" And he turns to n por
trait of Mary Stuart which hangs over
the mantelpiece, rending some verses in
scribed beneath it, the last stanza of
which runs ; s

closure of character through the clash
and personality of his personage":
which Is tho same thing ns sajing that
his power Is a veritably dramatic one.
I have not had the pleasure of seciiiK
thla play on the stage. If we did not
know it already, Its success might ho
predicted from its very economy of
stroke. And, Indeed, this is a feature
which will strike an careful reader,
as likewise the elreumstnneo that tin
form Is prose. It is nlsn nntlcenble
that except for one little touch as to
the advice of one "Hugo Dubois." who
"In an elnborato treatise on the coif

for the hair of women of fair mm
plexion. there Is scnrcely a touch of
what might lie railed local coloring or

Possibly this is the more juatilinble in
that Mary's story is after all hero,
universalized to he applicable to all i

touch. Poor Hicclo has fallen; Darn

Ignorance as to what ho has procured,

the queen replies: "Not tonight. Hen

on her lips;
Not Hicclo nor Pnrii!o knew
Nor Hothwell how to find
This Mary's best magnificence
Of the great lover's mind.
She opens tho window ns the candle
gutters out nnd two "nleos a. of a
