    THE STJITOAY OBEGOXIAy. FOBTLASD, JULY 21, 1918-
The Principal isirl. by J. C. Snalth. 11.25.
Moffat. Yard 4 Co.. Sew York City.
Readers who know a good thing
when tney see it have not gotten over
laughing at the amusing wit and sly
sarcasm of Mr. Snaith's previous novel
ot the British aristocracy. "Araminta,"
in which titled lords and ladies were
handled without gloves.
Now. here comes another English
novel of the same type. "The Principal
Girl." In which aristocracy is handled
with the same playful sarcasm. It is a
novel of evolution, a comedy so charm
ins that we are lost in wonder at the
graceful skill and finesse displayed,
and worthy of being kept on one's se
lect reading table with the best of the
lighter stories of the season. In "The
Principal Girl" Mr. naitli grows more
and more like Mr. Thackeray.
The Honorable Philip Shclmerdine.
only ion of Lord Shelmerdine. and Miss
Mary Caspar, the descendant of an
honorable line of actors, are the prin
cipal figures in the story. Indeed,
Miss Caspar is "the principal girl." At
first Philip ia drawn as a rather stupid-looking
and appearing aristocrat,
a gusilar of strong drink and eater of
many dinners and lunches, until we
despair of him doing anything useful
or worth relating. He is slated by his
father and mother into marrying Lady
Adela Kocklaw, daughter of Lord War
lock, formerly the British Ambassador
to Persia. Philip Is so bossed by his
father and mother, particularly the, lat
ter, that he can't call his soul hla, own.
Just about this time Philip witnesses
a pantomime in a London theater and
is smitten with the beauty of the prin
cipal girl in the production of "Cin
derella." She is Miss Mary Caspar, who
sings a fetching song, "Arcadie." Phil
ip is introduced to her and the convic
tion strikes him slowly but firmly that
this is the girl he has been looking for
ever since he was old enough to know
what girls were. She gets a salary of
$S00 per week and her grandmother,
Mrs. Cathcart, played Lady Macbeth
with David Garrick.
Lord and Lady Shelmerdine assume
that Philip, who had never been known
to have any mind of his own. would
marry Lady Artela, who is a choice spit
fire and feminine bully, but Thiiip says
he is in love with an actress. "Fact is."
said Philip to his father, "a chap is
bound to get fed up unless he can find
a real nice girl to take him on and
give him an interest in things. And I
reckon I've found her. although I
haven't persuaded her yet; but, father,
if you'll be so kind as to go and talk
to her grandmother, a real good sort
who has played Bean with Lady Mac
beth, and put in a word for me, I'm
sure it would straighten things tip a
bit."
Miss Caspar had displayed more than
a rassing interest in Philip when she
found out that he was the tihelmerdine
who had represented England in an
international soccer football match
with Scotland and who had kicked
three goals against Scotland. Well.
Miss Caspar and Philip are married.
You will fear, won't you, as to the woe
that may ensue? Marriages between a
lord's son and an actress usually turn
out disastrously and often end sooner
or later In the divorce court. But ils
one is different. How the bride took
hold of her husband, taught him how
to speak in public, enter politics, re
enter soccer football and a-vin become
a soccer hero and thereby get votes
and win over his father and .mother
all these happenings are told with
bright comedy spirit.
The Dit of the Saxon, by Homer I.ea. J1.S0.
I Harper Brother. New York City.)
Homer Lea, general in the army of
the Chinese republic, deserves sympa
thy. Ho is in need of enlightenment.
The other day a message was flashed
over the wires that General Lea had
reached this country from China, where
he had assisted in drilling raw legions
of Chinese into the semblance of an
army and that his health was badly
impaired. It was stated that it was,
doubtful if his eyesight would ever be
Testored again. It is pleasing to re
late that General Lea has somewhat
recovered his health.
General Lea's previous book. "The
Valor of Ignorance," predicted the
successful gobbling up of this coun
try by Japan, and it was evident thai
Ms opinion of Americans as military
men was poor. The book sold rapidly,
because of its abusive character, tru
isms and sensationalism. General Lea
shines as an attacker.
In Lea's newest book. "The Day of
the Saxon," which should have been
called "The Doom of the Saxon." he
attacks the Anglo-Saxon for' his love
of trade pursuits and his unwillingness
to become a soldier. General Lea is
convinced that Germany is to gobble
up Great Britain and he gives facts to
support this argument to the extent of
241 well-printed pages. He also re
turns to his old love that Japan draws
near to her next war with this country
and that Japan will win largely be
cause we believe in the supremacy of
the individual over the welfare or the
Nation and because of the Nation's vain
and tragic scorn of the soldier. Our
author also shows the impossibility of
the American Republic surviving. He
forgets that the Anglo-Saxon is a
sleeping bulldog and ought to know
that it Is the height of folly to awaken
the said bulldog. Our author is ap
parently ignorant that modern Ger
many is composed of different races or
peoples not all welded to the idea that
Prussia and the Emperor William can
boss all Germany. Nothing is said of
the doctrine that modern war means
dollars and the truism that German
Socialists would act effectually against
war with peoples of Anglo-Saxon
blood.
It is clear that a world crisis exists.
There is only one course to he pursued
now. Make General Homer lea
General-in-Chief and Admlral-in-Chicf
of all armies and navies of the Anglo
Saxon race. Only by this course can
approaching ruin be dodged.
My Demon Motor Boat, by George Fitch.
Illustrated, tl.ittle. rtrown 10.. nostorw
The only manner in which one cm
thoroughly enjoy this book is to read
it. Generalities are feeble and recom
mendations vague. Its humor is fresh
and inspiring. For instance. these
passages give a hint of the kind of fun
that is particularly welcome at this
foolish, warm season of the year:

The Sixth Sense: Ita Cultivation and lae.
by Bishop Charles H. Brent. 50 cents.
W. Huebsch. New York City.)
We 'are familiar with the five ordi
nary senses of seeing, smelling, hear
ing, tasting and touching, but are not
familiar with the so-called sixth sense;
that is. the mystic or upper sense,
evidencing itself in relation to man
physically, mentally, morally and
spiritually. The book is a gold mine
to the thoughtful, and its value and
worth cannot be overestimated.
"The operation of the mystic sense
is summed up in the single word faith,
which is described as the giving sub
stance to that which is hoped for, the
testing of things not seen," remarks
our Canadian-New England-Philippine
Islands Episcopal bishop. "The mystic
sense has for Its workshop the uplands
of life in the rarefied atmosphere of
ideas and ideals. It is at once a super
sense, giving us a birdseye view of
the universe which is not permitted at
close quarters, and a sub-sense, bring
ing before our attention the contents
hidden beneath the surface of things.
Faith, which is simply the highest op
eration of the mystic sense, is as nec
essary to the complete work of heal
ing as in the days when Jesus said:
'According to thy faith, be it unto
thee." The mystic sense must reach up
until it feels the hand containing the
gift and take the gift as its own. The
mvs'tic sense is wonderfully elastic.
Cheerfulness comes by being cheerful,
hope by being hopeful, calmness by
being calm, healthy-mlndedness by be
ing healthy-minded. This is the work
of the mystic sense, living in the realm
of vigor, even when -the body is in
distress."
Such writing has dignity and ring of
truth.
A It Was in the Besrlnning. by Philip V.
Mlghel!. (l.tfS. Desmond Kltxgcrald. New
York City.
For audacity and originality of plot,
this novel of adventure takes the palm
of such novels of the season. It harks
back to the charm of "Treasure Island
and has the same wild thrill. The scene
is largelv laid on an uninhabited trop
ical island on the Malay Peninsula.
Miss Elaine Lytton. residing in Can
ton. China, is engaged to marry Gerald
Fenton. who lives some thousands of
miles from that place, and Fenton sends
his hosom friend. Sidney Greenville, to
bring Miss Lytton home for the mar
riage. On the trip out from China the
steamer strikes a rock. wreck occurs
and Orenville and Elaine Just manage
to reach shore, without food, firearms
or tools with which to make a habita
tion for shelter. A tiger guards the
Island, and vast treasure is found hid
den In a cave. Savages known as head
hunters pay one of their periodical vis
its to the island. By this time Gren
ville has made gunpowder and bombs
with which he greets the savages
Elaine and Grenville lead Robinson
Crusoe sort of lives and fall in love
with each other. Is he bound in honor
to his fiiend Fenton to kill the love
that starts unhidden? The problem is
very well handled.

The Sentimental Song Book, by Julia A.

It is stated that this song book was
published about 40 years ago. that it
has long since been out of print and
that Mark Twain commented on the
book at length in "Following the
Equator." and that he always carried
a copy with him. The vagaries of the
verse are astonishing. Many of tha
scenes depicted are laid In Michigan.

reader will wonder whether a prac

Here is a quotation from the first
poem, "The Author's Early Life:"
It was natural for me to compose
And put words into rhyme.
And the success of my first work

My I.lfe In Prison, by Donald I.owrie. $1.25.
Mitchell Kennerley, New York City.
A passionately told narrative, with
dramatic instinct in the foreground.
The hero tells the story. He was out
of work, and starving. Taking a coin,
he tossed it for heads or tails, to find
whether he must take his life or steal.
"Steal!" said the coin. So the hero
broke into a house, took money and
jewelry, was afterward arrested, and
sentenced to 16 years' imprisonment in
San Quentin, Cal., at which penitentiary
he arrived July 24. 1901. Life In San
Quentin is described. In letters of al
most burning fire, and of course the
life Is unpleasant. The trouble about
the book although it is very able and
frank is that the hero makes himself
out to oe a very Injured person. The
fact is, he broke the law. Prisons are
not places where prisoners are coddled,
in spite of all the mush of sentimen
talists. Prisons are places of disci

Co.. Chicago.
A sensational attack on the methods
by which our big American railroad
properties were begun, obtained and
are managed today, of course for the
benefit of the stockholders. Sledge
hammer blows are dealt. Mr. Russell
says that all the facts he presents, and
some of them must be unwelcome to
big business, were secured from court
records and law papers generally, open
to overvbodv. Much that appears in
ih x22 nasres was printed in the
now defunct HamDton's Magazine,
mihiication Mr. Russell says was forced
to suspend because big business that
had been attacked crushed it. He shows
with a vengeance who is to blame prin
cipally for high cost of living.
