Mrs. Asquith Is made te say, "that he has no profound convictions about poli peli tics: they attract him only as a game which be thinks he plays well, and which amuse blm much as a game of rhess might de, but he docs net really care for the things at stake, or be lieve that the happiness of mankind de pend en events going this way or that." Winsten Churchill, in the course of a com creation comparing Asqulth and Balfour, says Astiutth "i simple minded and geed, Arthur (B&'four), en the contrary, is in hi nature hard ; he could be cruel. I call him wicked. He is very conrageeus. The dif ference between him and Asqulth Is that Arthur i wicked and moral and Asqulth is geed and immoral." Mr. Blunt expresses hi own opinion about Reisebery and Gladstone and Disraeli. When Ileiebery became lVo lVe tnier he remarked that "He la an astute Whig of the Palmerston type, and the. Radicals have get what they deserve." He called him a stock exchange Pre mier, who would protect the British bondholders everywhere. When Glad Glad stene retired he expressed no regret, but said that the e'd statesman had "betrayed tee many geed muses net te be an evil-deer in my eyes." Of Disraeli he wrete: "Yeu cannot persuade me that he ever for an in stant took himself seriously as a British htatesman His Semitic politics were genuine enough." And he tells hew Disraeli's father, en being lined 50 by bis synagogue for unorthodox writing, withdrew from the Jewish con gregation, joined the Church of England and had his children christened.

It is a story of the greatest and most exciting of all hunts whaling and is told in autoblecranhiral form with n clearness and intensity that make it verge en the classics of Melville or ether singers of sagas of the seas. Supposedly the story of a four-year whaling cruise by a youngster who leaves New Bedford In 17I, it pictures every detail of whaling ltd monotonous routine, the sudden thrills, the danger of battles against whale and elements, the glamour of sea life. All these are interwoven Inte the story with a master's hand. The veriest landlubber ran start out en the entire tvlth Mr. Hepkins and end it an experienced whaler except for the tanned cheekB and the ether concomitants of n whaling voyage. There is n thread of n romance running through the story, but it never becomes obtrusive and even the patent theatricalism of n fight with pirates that closes the story can be ter given as can the author's faux pas in attributing the Chicago fire te the cow of "Mrs. Kelly" instead te the obstreperous bovine of the clan O'Leary. "She Blews" is a master utery of the sea worthy of Oinrad, Melville or ethers of that gallant band of writirj whose numbers, alas, are all tee few. Unconventional History James L. Ferd's "Forty Odd Tears In the Literary Shep." which the Dut Dut tens published a few months age, has brought te its author a most interesting mass of letters of appreciation. In numerable actors, actresses and man agers have written te him te say what pleasant reminders of their early years they have found In his pages; one of the most distinguished et American his torians bns sent a letter te soy that he has found these chronicles of the lighter phases of metropolitan life well worth reading: a bishop and half a dexen cler gymen have assured him of the Interest with which (hey have rend the book; editors and dramatic critics have born teetirarttiY te the truth of his pictures of Park row; women of social distinc tion have expressed their interest in his accounts of life en Ceney Island, the East Side, and in the haunts of crim inals. avVMsyvsissssysysyssyss 1 BOOK EXCHANGE Rare Beeks AN wi-cp-ririMAl.f.T CHOICE AND CURIOUS COLLECTION of Sercr nd ..?..- nub. nitH..!.tlr ami I'llS t'tllQUO '."iu?. .......: rnmni., nd irtubrldMd M ti Mill-mi. w.,.,..- - " ..i. a translations Privately Printed.

The New Yerk Herald: "Mr. Dedd has surpassed himself in this, his second remarkable novel. In some ways it is a companion piece te 'The Boek of Susan,' ...

The portrait of a heroine who reallv has anything: inside her beautiful head is un- , common enough; still rarer is a truly successful attempt te draw such a character, . . .
