In Pursuit of Priscllla" is a love
story. It is not an original love
tnrv tnr that ran not well be; but,
though the theme is the old, old one,
and the passions and heart hunger of
the men are those felt by lovers since
the beginning of time, yet the telling
of Prlsrllla's story is done in an orig
inal and fascinating manner. This
"chronicle of the man willing and the
woman willful" Is exhlllratlng: It will
make you feel kindlier toward your
sisters.
"Come and Find Me" was one of
the greatest sellers in England dur
ing February. It is a story of Call
fornla"and the North. Such of the
story as Is laid in California Is a trifle
Iry, Its main excellencies being In skill
ful character study. The heroine,
Iilldegarde, Is as calm and stately -as
one of the Icebergs that later delay
her arrival at Nome. But when Hilde-
garde leaves her land of sunshine she
proves to herself a true daughter of
the magnetic north. The motive of
the writer. Elizabeth Robins, whose
earlier book, "Th4 Magnetic North,'
was commended very highly by the
critics, is to portray the Irresistible at
traction of the far reaches of the
world for those souls which are af
flicted or blessed with the wander
lust. This she accomplishes thor
oughly. In Jack Galbralth she finds
her ideal of the explorer. He gives up
love, even lire Itself to answer the call
"The Barrier" Is a fitting companion
to Rex E. Beach's "The Spoilers." John
Gale, the skuaw man. In his youth
loved a beautiful California girl; bul
;!ng t nv;.'.:st to press his claims
allows her to bi ear.-led off by one
Bennett, a villain. After Merrldy'e
birth Bennett abuses his wife so cruel
ly that she, In desperation, sends foi
her former lover. Eefore the worns..
can Join Gale and her little daughter
Bennett kills her and throws suspi
cion on Cale. At last the two men
meet In Alaska and Eennett Is recog
nized by the man he has wronged.
You will love "Poleon," and you will
not feel so very sorry for Runnion

tured by the mosquitoes. It all comet-
out right In the end.
"The Belle Islers," by Richard
Brlnsley Newman, is a socialist book,
but it is not to be known as such unti.
