Vl (ml 0r T OaETIiER," by Hobert Hsr- rick With th announcement of th book come tb state ment that 'It haa created a v profound sensation." and aftr : reading It ona la not astonished that tt haa, for there la nothing mora atartllng than truth, and nothing mora Mutational than to eee It In cold print. And thla . la just what "Together" la. The book la wholly without plot, dealing; only with the marital relation, as we see It, In our modern American Ufa. This aeaaon haa; brought us several notable stories founded on our corrupt and degenerate " society, but they have ail. Jacked the spirit of fullness, faiitjeas and compr hensiveness that Mr. Herrlck'a work d La pis ye. , He doea not start out with a little coterie of aeleated people making them a type of the whole, out ho takes an entire community, aeta them amidst different environments, separating them and bringing them back again and - touching them all with the earns virus of stability and desire to climb that ia : eating out the vitals of American man- noon ana woman nooa. The story starts with the wedding of , Isabella Price and John Lane. She waa the daughter of Colonel Price, one of tne old pioneer stock wno oegan at me very bottom of the ladder and worked -his way to the senior place In the great Hardware estaDiisnment or si. uouis. He waa one of the old achool gentle men and of the class that is rapidly be- . coming only a tradition in tnia country. A a a character of the atory he gave it a wnoiesom tone irom nrat to last. John Lane was a young railroad man ' with his foot upon ; the first round of : success as a trarfio manager, ana typi- csl of the clasa of young man who to day are forging to the front. -and by and ' by will be completely Immersed In the ' whirlpool or money malting, wnue tne wife ia left to spend it at the same ratio as It is made. Almost all the characters of the book are introduced to the reader at the wed- ding; most of them are Isabella's achool mates from St Mary's who have mar- ried more Or less advantageously, and even at the wedding Isabella takea time to wonder If her married life will be come commonplace like that of her school mates, and concludes that it will not "there is something different" ' But- before the honeymoon is over she Concludes she has made a mistake and has not found her "affinity," though she does not use this word wltn tne tainted association. In all things Isabella re tains her respectability an Inheritance from her pioneer parents perhaps. There are no giriisn romances id tne dook. The characters are all men and women who have arrived at vears of discretion, . but are still young enough to crave the life and love of tie opposite sex. Theae groups have been bound together by " tne line oia Daroaric -ceremony, tne passing of the' Irredeemable contract be tween man ana woman, tne pupiio proc lamation of eternal union." In grouping these people and working out their different destinies, giving tnem aurerent dispositions ana sur roundlnsrs. and. through varied exoerl ences arriving at logical results, the author has shown a wonderful and pro found Knowledge or human nature. He has not made "book people" with one of : nis characters, nor Drougnt aDout un natural results, and therein lies the sting which haa caused his book to be a storm center of criticism he haa simply told the truth. Women will not perhaps, receive Mr. Herrlck'a book as kindly as the men will, for he certainly hits them hard, both in their efforts to climb the social ladder and in the sentimentally weak side of their natures, which ther some times attribute to that , unknown ele ment the soul, and which usually ex hauets Itself through an "affinity' At the same time he does not spare the weaknesses of men and clearly proves they must have the vlrll elements of tne man, to noia tne woman, as wnen the good bishop says to his daughter Margaret, who forma one of the people does not show great power, I know, my dear. But he is a good man a faith ful husband and a kind father. That Is much, Margaret It rests with you to make him moref "Does ItT" Mar garet was aaklng behind her blank countenance.

"That there la a dlatinct body of knowledge to be mastered be fore housekeeping can be understood in telligently Is appreciable only by the minority of American housekeepera Manv of us bealn housekeeping handi capped by a lack of knowledge and by a lack of experience in the practical side of business. To most of us the duties involved In the experiment ofj Housekeeping assume at nrst a cnaotic and unsystematized shape. Each day arrives with its tangle of freah and aeemlngly unrelated perplexities to be solved from hour to hour. That which might give dignity and interest to the business a plan for the day. the week, the year is absent It is aaid that it takea three generations to make a gentleman. Perhaps It takea aa many to make the best housekeeper. The young woman who begina house keeping with a body of seasoned and systematized knowledge Inherited front her mother and grandmother is lucky. Where this should be the rule it Is the exception, and that, not always because the mother and grandmother have not naa tne knowledge to impart, but orten in America becauas such knowledge is not held of sufficient importance to be handed on. The value of planned housekeeping in time becomes apparent to every earnest worker in the field. upon the ability of a woman to adminlater wisely the af fairs of ths bouse depends the health of her family and more often than not tha financial prosperity of her husband; and as eoon aa she recognizes the fact that her end of the business Is as Im portant aa hla and demands aa constant and methodical attention so much tha better. When tn tha hn-iM. keeper the duties of each day assume a distinct identity,, the battle of managing the work ia pretty well fought out" xo neip in giving eaon day or the week this distinct identity ia lha nhWt nt this very useful book.
