FIRST NORTHERN NOVEL, "BYLOW HILL," BY
GEORGE V. CABLE OTHER PUBLICATIONS.
George W. Cable has -written a New
England story, and it Is a rood atory.
"Bylow Hill" is its title, taken from the
elghtliest residence spot in a village which
may be situated, in Vermont or New
Hampshire the state and the particular
locality are not given. One -who has en- .
Joyed "The Cavalier." "John March,
Southerner," "Bonaventure," "Dr. Se
vier," "The Grandisalmes" and the ehort- I
er Louisiana stories, all of which have
an Indefinable Southern charm, will take
up with mifigivings a romance by Mr.
Cable Tihose scenes are laid In a bleak
region. Let fears on that score be dis
missed. Mr. Cable has most ekillfully
transferred to New England an atmos
phere redolent -with magnolias. Tfeere Is
gentle speech, marked courtesy to wom
en, family pride, much old-fashioned hos
pitality. The author could not have cre
ated this Louisiana atmosphere around
Vermonters except by Introducing South
erners. He did It by bringing a widow and
her daughter, born and brought up south
of Maeoa and Dixon's line, to live in close
rroxlmity to two families in that exclu
de and aristocratic neighborhood, Bylow
Hill. Mr. Cable sets his story thus:
Behind, on the weet, these gardens
dropped swiftly out of sight to a hidden brook,
from the farther shore of which rose the great
wooded hill whose shelter from the bitter
northwest had Incited the old Puritan founders
to choos.e the spot for their farming village
of one street, with a Byincton and & Winslow
for their first town officers. ... In
cHTlan's dress, end with only his eea-oronxed
face and the polished air of a pivot gun to tell
he was of the Navy. Lieutenant Godfrey
"Winslow was slowly crossing the rural way
with Ruth Bjlncton at his side. He had the
look of sa, 28, and she was some four years
rls Junior.
They are all very gentje people In the
etory, and It moves with a delicious lan
guor remindful of Augustus Thomas
stage idjll, "Alabama." Then comes a
tragedy. Isabel Morris, the Southern girl,
ought to have married Leonard Bylngton,
a lawyer with brain and ambition who
had courted her, but she chose Arthur
"Winslow, the rector of All Angels. He
grew jealous of Bylngton and became al
most mad. There was no meanness about
Arthur. He tried to do the right thing,
but he lived on his" morbidness until he
was poisoned In every vein. Fortunately
he dies.
Isabel Js supported In her great trial by
sympathy from every one except her hus
band. Herein Is one charm of "Bylow
Hill," Mr. Cable puts in bits of comedy,
the actor being Martin Kelly, pious Irish
man and outdoor factotum of the Bylng
ton place. There Is a gap after the
tragedy and Martin closes the narrative.
8o by and by the Winslow pair went to live
in the Winslow bouse, and the Bylngton pair
In the Bylngton house; and it you listen well,
you may hear an aged voice, a "voice with
a brogue saying:
"Ay! there's a Llnnard Winslow now, and
there's a Godfrey Boylngton. 'And there's still
an Isable Winslow and a Ruth Boylngton. 1
But the mother of Ruth Boylngton la she that
wor Isable Winslow, moy gracious! and th
mother of Isable Winslow is she that wor
Ruth Boylngton. And so -there he's an Isable
In the wan house and an Isable In the other;
and there be's a Ruth In the wan house and
a Ruth In th' other, moy gracious! and
there's an Alrthur In each, whatsomH er."
Six illustrations in color by P. C. Tohn
adorn the book. Nothing more beautiful
or delicate In the way of pictures is to be
found. Typographically, "Bjlow Hill" Is
up to the highest standard. (New York,
Charles Scribner's Sons.)
"The Valley of Decision."
Interested observers of that wonderful
American reception of "The Valley of De
cision" will take pleasure In the equally
distinguished reception that Edith Whait
ton's novel is now receiving in London,
where it lias Just been published by John
Murray. If the superlatives be fewer in
the English reviews, the spirit of sincere
discriminating admiration is, if that be
possible, even greater. Here, for Instance,
speaks the London Times:
"The promise of earlier work Is more
than fulfilled In 'The Valley of Decision.'
The style is raised and chastened. It is
as if a singer with a beautiful voice, but
an uncertain ear, had trained herself at
last to singr dead in tune. If there is little
scope for humor in the picture of deca
dent Italy that she draws, there is room
and to spare for her exquisite sense of
beauty, and she sets her flashing de
scriptions like gems upon that woman
country.
"There Is no plot at all; there Is no
heroine; and we had almost said there is
no hero; for the hero, the son of a royal
house, does not survive his wild, en
chanted childhood, and only as a name
does he wander through the varied scenes
and emotions of the brilliant pageant of
lbth-century existence. As In 'WUhelm
Meister,' of the planless charm of which
we are often reminded, there are endless
episodes, and these are so delightful that
we forget the hero altogetbr.
"The fascinating tale of MIrandollna
might woo a gentleman to forget his din
ner and a lady her afternoon tea, '
"The little ducal court, the connoisseur
ecclesiastic, the persecuted Liberals, the
Jesuit, the popular stage, the merry nuns
of Venice all these are studied, and
siucuea with tne rare Insight of genius.
Wo could be happy with any one of them.
-"We would say to every one of them:
'Stay, thou art fair!' but they will never
stay; they melt into each other like the
dissolving views in a magic lantern, and
at last, tired and bew ildered in a world of
rainbows, we long to be left alone with
the stop'. The period Is the hero."
Victor Huko, the Novelist.
Professor Morltz Levi in the June Forum,
The great interest In Victor Hugo's
novels is due to many features. Be
fore all else there is revelled in them
a brilliant imagination, a faculty that
appeals strongly to nearly all classes of
readers. Man ever desires to rise on
the wings of revery and enthusiasm into
the fairyland of speculation. It is the
Imagination that makeB the philosopher
ponder over the nrohlfms nf m-'. ..
Istence, and It is the imagination that
creates the divine, "mystic, unfathom
able" song of Dante. To Hugo's Imagi
nation the world offered a series of prob
lems, which, according to him, it is In
the power of the poet to solve: th vis
ible forms of the unlvrs hMn n!ritti
meanings which he can disclose. By
! virtue ot tnat imagination Hugo con-
stantly endeavored to show th.e spiritual

interpretation is that of an imaginative
writer, not tnit or a man of science;
i and the power revealed, the remarkable
vision of Victor Hugo, Is one of the most
surprising facts to be met with In the
history of all literature.
By far the most striking fAnturA n
connection with Hum's imagination

be called prose poems. But there are
other causes for this cower of miiinv

trait of his character, was rather a volun
tary artificial device by means of which
he was enabled to obtain the highest ef
fect. He had gathered from experience
that a skillful portrayal of the sorrows
and sufferings and disappointments of
mankind much more than their Joys and
hopes Is capable of stirring the deepest
emotions in men's hearts, Hugo's power
to arouse emotion is such that at times
we feel our very souls harrowed by the
touches of his magic hand. "We seem to
be in a trance, overcome by a nightmare.
Carnefirle on Twisted Spelling:.
What do you think Is the latest book
in which the man who is founding libe
ries all over the United Slates has be
come interested? It is a First Reader.
Mr. Carnegie sees in the first book put
into the hands of a child probably the
most Important volume that he will ever
read, since it gives the bent which Ills
character, intellectual and moral, is
bound to take through all his subsequent
life. Mr. Carnegie is particularly taken
with the beginnings of spelling reform
introduced in the Standard First Reader
by Its publishers, Funk & Wagnalls Com
pany. He writes:
"I am much pleased with this Reader.
By the introduction of the scientific al
phabet for pronunciation It will help pre
pare? the way for the simplification of
spelling. ... I know of few fields
where where bo much real good can bo
done as In the simplification of our spell
ing. It seems to me that the btst plan
is to begin by an agreement among writ
ers that they will change 12 of the worst
twists, such as the gh's and ph's."
IClnc Oscar as a Poet.
A sensational as well as an Illustrious
debut Into French literature has Just been
made by a no lees personage than his
Majesty the King of Swtden, who presents
a book, of his poems to the French public
under the friendly auspices of the celebrat
ed French poet. Sully Prudhomme, and
Jules Craletie. The former figures In the
preface with a charming poem dedicated
to his Majesty, while the latter has written
the preface Itself an excellent recommen
dation even for a King.
The work is issued by the Swedish pub
lisher Per Lamm, who Is established in
Paris, and considered quite like a French
publisher. It is beautifully illustrated by
the great Scandinavian painter, August
Hagborg. The King signs the work,
"Prince Oscar Frederik. actually Oscar
IL, King of Norway and Sweden."
The poems are full of charm and emo
tion, and combine the mystic fascination
of the North with the styl and grace of
the French race.
Paris has received them with flattering
empre&sement, and the grandson of Berna
dotte bids fair to be as popular with his
poetry as he la as King for no royal vis
itor is more thoroughly liked by all classes
of French people than Oscar IL, King of
DEW BATH for
THIS IS THE NEWEST FAD
OTTH CHICAGO WOMEN r r
V
CHICAGO has a new fad which for
genuine novelty and originality
seems likely to stand unrivaled In
a little class of Its own for some time, to
come, cays the Tribune. In years gone
by Chicago has Imported most of its
really successful fads from the East and
across the Atlantic, but this one grew and
blossomed on native Illinois soil, and as
soon as society gives It vogue it Is sure
to leap Into Instantaneous popularity) for
society's approval Is all that Is necessary
to the success of a fad.
This absolutely new thing in fads Is the
morning dew bath for the complexion,
and It threatens to outclass even the
beauty doctors themselves. Some morn
ing, if 3'ou happen to be up In time to
commune with the sun as It slips up across
the lake, and, looking over your back
fence you behold a woman, young or old,
kneeling in the center of a grass plot with
her face In close proximity to the earth,
don't call the police. This Is the fad.
As a complexion producer it is said to
surpass anything In the squeegee line yet
Introduced and the best thing about the
new complexion producer is that It is
easily within the reach of every woman
who can find a grass plot large enough
to envelop her face.
These morning dew baths for the com
plexion wero something of a pscret until
recently. The dca was such a capital
and original one that those who rondo the
unique discovery that green grass, fresh
ened by morning dew, contains the skin
invigorating ingredients for which the
beauty doctors charge money, held their
tongue with considerable persistency. But
the truth leaked out down in Elgin, IU.
Miss Evangeline Brusk, a young woman
residing In that place, has enjoyed some
local fame on account of the beauty of
her complexion. Indeed, she has been
the envy of her friends' on account of
this supposedly rich gift of nature.
The expose, however, came one morning
not long a), when a neighbor arose early
to catch a train out ot Elgin. He lives
next door to the Brusk home, and as he
was passing down his back steps he was
considerably surprised to see the young
woman crouching on the lawn and gesticu
lating in unseemly fashion as though sal
uting the sun. She would run her hands
across the grass, and then bury her face
In them and go through all the motions of
washing. It was a new one on the Elgin
Norway and Sweden. His visits are fre
quent and he Is always warmly acclaimed.
Two of the begt poems are "La Bal
tique" and "Un Chant." The former Is a
fine descriptive1 address to the sea, while
the latter is a passionate series of verses.
In which a song for each strong sentiment
Is demanded. An ordinary mortal might
well be proud of the new book of poems
of whlqh Oscar II is author, but royal as
pirations may, perhaps, be much higher.
King Oscar is said to have declared he
would rather be remembered as a poet
than as King, and it was not without
pride that he accepted recently the Justly
merited laurel wreath bestowed upon him
by a Swedish literary academy in recog
nition of his work. As early as 1S57 he
w.on the prize of the Swedjsh Academy,
and !n-1878 he was-elected a correspond
ing member of the Frankfort Academy of
Sciences on bis poetical translation of
Goethe's r'auet." His "Poems and Leaf
lets From My Journal," publishedin 1SS0,
Is but one of tils several volumes of orig
inal poetry, and his translations are nu
merous. The King Is now 73 years old.

His curiosity "was aroused to the point of
investigation, so he crossed the lawn

prised her with a question.
Such Interruption was unpardonable.
Without replying, the young woman
Jumped to her feet and fled to the house.
But-this was ejiough, for It was In reality
the beginning of this new beauty fad,
which seems likely to outdo anything In
the way of novelty for women's faces that
ever has been Imported even from Paris,
New Tork or London,
There really Is nothing to the dew com
plexion bath but dew and grass, yet in ad
dition to its complexion-giving properties
the early morning contact with nature Is
said to be exhilarating. In the first place,
to derive the full benefits a young woman
must be up and out before the world Is
astir, aj dew will not wait or her to finish
a niornlng nap. This in Itself Is one step
In the direction of a good complexion and
when a dip in the cool, refreshing grass
Is taken into consideration along with this
first natural consequence, it appears that
there is more to the dew bath than Is
evident.
But it isn't a big hit with the beauty
doctor? and complexion specialists.
"Dew baths for the complexion!" said
one of them when the fad was mentioned
to her. "I never heard of anything half so
silly. The Idea! Washing one's face in
green grass to improve one's complexion!
O my! What an idea! Ridiculous! Dew
baths with some such treatment as we
give might be all right, but I haven't
much faith in green grass as an effeotive
beautifier. Preposterous!"
And the complexion specialist laughed
herself out of sight. Phyeiclans. however,
being less directly interested in the ab
stract question of complexions, are non
committal. "I wouldn't like to commit myself for
fear of Incurring the Ill-will of the wo
men," paid one doctor. "If some young
woman has found that a dew bath in the
early morning air improved her complex
ion she ought to know what she is talking
about. At least, I wouldn't care to con
tradict her without first having given my
oelf over to an Investigation. Grass natu

FLIRTATION AS A GAME.
Girls Should Adopt Poker Rales to
Malco Successful.
"Flirtation is a, sauce piquant with
which the Summer season Is served up,"
says Dorothy Dix. "In Winter love-making-
is a pastime that is apt to end In ser
ious consequences at the altar, and a
mm talks sentiment at his peril. In
Summer It is merely one of those long,
soft drinks that tickle the palate and add
rest to the hour without going to the
head or stimulating the heart action un
duly: "The first important point In the Bum
mer flirtation game is to begin right.
Examine your cards, and see what sort
of a hand fate has dealt you. If you are
radiantly beautiful you can afford to
stand pat and take the chances. Other
wise you will need to draw to your one
good quality all the charms the rules of
the game allow. Never forget that a
built-uj hand frequently takes the pot,
and that the girl who supplements a sal
low complexion and carroty hair with
winning ways has before now frozen out
a beauty whb was too busy contemplat
ing her own perfections to admire a
man's.
"Ante up promptly. Do your part In
making things pleasant. Don't expect a
man to do all the work In livening up
things. Everybody likes the girl who Is
ready for everything, and who can enjoy
a hay ride on a farm wagon as much as
n box-seat on a four-ln-hand, and dis
plays, as .good an appetite at a beer and
sandwich supper as 1f it were bottles and
birds at a swell restaurant More In de

but is always ready to Join in a chorus,
or a ragtime ditty, than the prima donna
who has to be coaxed and begged into
singing.
"Play fair. Give the other girls a show.
Don't try to monopolize the one man at.

Into long, solitary rambles and tete-a-tetes.

him. No one woman Is the whole show
In life to any man ,and unless she is
strong enough do win out against the
counter attractions, she had best lay
down her hand and drop out of the game.
"Put up a good stiff bluff now and
then. It generally goes with men. Jf you
want to be a belle and be admired and
have men falling nver one another to pay
your attention, act as If you were used
to it. No man was ever known to ad
mire a woman that no other man ad
mired. Whether they lack confidence in
their own taste and Judgment, or need
one another's opinion to brace them up,
nohody knows, but you will observe that
In every community there are girls who

to let him go.
"Also be the first to withdraw from the
little flirtation. Any woman who lets a

"Be a game loser. Don't knock other
women. It Is proclaiming your own fail
