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
