THE OREGbN SUNDAY JOURNAL, PORTLAND,. : SUNDAY MORNING, JULY 23, 1911'
ER PETL'A," by IMon Clayton
Calthrop. There fs nothing the
fiction reader of today enjoys
quite fso much, in an author, hs
originality, and Mr. Calthrop
can have the supreme satisfaction of
knowing- that he will produce in his
readers, or most of thorn, the fcelinpr of
not knowing whether or no they like
his Ktory. The ptory itself has some
tartllnRly original thins in It, and
these are (he things that puzzle the
reader and make him undecided.
Brian O'Cree, an Irish artist, ec
centric to say the least, opens the
Story by burning his love letters and
relieving himself of some opinions
be holds regarding women, and by
Announcing to his little 7 year old
model, Perpetua. who stands wait
ing his pleasure, that: "I will make
a thousand a year and become a crusted
bachelor. I have done with women!" He
then attempts to amuse the child In the
usual way, but she Is distraught and
. refuses to listen to the story of the
"Purple Elephant." Now, elephant's were
Perpetua's specialties and Brian knew
something must be woefully wrong. As
; he attempted to comfort her with some
ridiculous pet name, she threw her
arms about his neck and walled. In a
childish pleading voice, "Father." This
was rather disconcerting to the man
who had felt himself clear of all femi
nine entanglements and had just de
clared himself a "crusted bachelor."
Still greater was nls astonishment when
"Perpetua Mary Brown" coolly told him
ehe thought he would do, and she In
tended to adopt him," or words to that
effect. Then he drew from her her
pitiful little story, though she didn't
know its true significance, as she told
It in a matter of fact childish way
a deserted mother, who after a few
years of toll and disgrace gave up the
battle, leaving a motherless child to the
mercy of the landlady whose Interest In
mother and child ceased when the un
certain remittances stopped altogether,
and at length a little 7 year old girl,
earning her own bread and butter, pos
ing as a model, and the awful future
looking her In the face. Her story was
so pathetically told, and her Idea of
adopting a father so naive that at its
conclusion the easy going Bohemian
apirit of Brian prevailed and he settled
her future by simply replying, "I have
accepted what fate has brought me
Bight about turn, Perpetua Mary
O'Cree."
The -life of these 'two together, aa the
girl grew to womanhood is beautiful. It
has no maudlin sentiment in It, and Is
really the relationship more of com
rades and friends than father and
daughter. In both the author has cre
ated excellent character studies, and he
develops them along highly original
lines. They leave London and wander
over Europe for years with a troop of
players in a cheap circus. Here again
Mr. Calthrop has drawn some wonderful
ketches of human nature, even if there
does seem some Inconsistency In a man
of Brian O'Cree's refined and artistic
temperament being able to officiate with
these mountebanks.
The time comes, however, when some
of Brian's woman friends finally suc
ceed In persuading him that Perpetua
must go to school and be surrounded
by other influences. Money has never
been scarce with Brian, so he provides
the girl with everything necessary, and
at the age of 16 sends her to the con
vent in Paris under the care of Sister
t'rsula. Plie was Just the disposition to
be deeply impressed with the pomp and
ceremony of the Catholic church, and
she soon became a devout Romanist.
Up to this time everything was purei
and beautiful in the glri'a life, but about
the time she was leaving the convent
the serpent appeared in Paradise, in the
form of her own father, and a rich
young roue off -if whom he lived.- The
episode of the father and Saville Men
der, and their cornectlnn with the story,
particularly the latter's, is disgusting
and revolting, and one cannot hut wish
that the author's imagination hart
found some better way out of the p'ro
dlcament. It did, however, whether Mr. Calthrop
meant it or not, draw a powerful con
trast between the pure and undcflled re
ligion of love an,l the shell of form and
Bclf-abnegation. No religion can serve
Its purpose that U-achrs a disregard 0r
the Individual's happiness. It has
wrecked many a life, and it came near
wrecking Perpetua's. This is the moral

And Just remember this, that am man

and in doing nothing.
The very fact that you are doing

"The Tennt ssec Shad." by Owen John
son Anew lawrenceville story is hailed
with rapture by those who have rend
Mr. Johnson's stories of the same school
and the boys who maka life miserable
for "the old Roman" and his coworkers
In the cultivation of the young minds
of the students. We know the
"Tennessee Shad" before we begin to
read, for he played an Important part
in the education of the "Varmint" and
did his part nobly with "The Humming
Bird" and was the chief member of
the firm of "The Tennessee Shad and
Doc. Macnooder." To begin to describe
or review, this book would be to tell
the story Itself, and nothing short of
reading It for one's self and having
the opportunity of laughing all to one's
self over the escapades of these healthy,
mischievous youngsters will satisfy the
reader, especially If he be a lover of
the "eternal boy." To sea the Shad

htm around the circle accompanied by
the cheers and shouts of the faculty,
as well as the student body, who view
the proceeding a one of Shad's most
successful deceptions, while the poor
"Raw Beefsteak'' vainly supposes the
applause Is for himself Is enough to
make the render take off his hat and
cheer with the crowd. In this book we
again visit the "Jigger shop," the dif
ferent historic rooms where the inci
dents of other stories have had their
setting; seie the same boys still follow
ing their different vocations and avo
cations, and again the famous toilet set
of many hues and patterns changes
hands at an enormous price owing, of
course to its historic value. One new
face we see, and it is a face we can
never forget poor "Raw Beefsteak!"
"His father. Joshua M. Skinner, pro
proetor and manager of the Regal hotel,
blissfully regarded himself as but an
humble Instrument In the advancement
of his only child's career, and secretly
rejoiced when his son lectured him on
the proprieties of masculine attire and
the vernacular of select society." Skin
ner Jr., was Just such a son as one
might expect from this kind of a father
and hsv"had not simply been born with
a sold spoon In his mouth, but literally
amid a shower of golden spoons, forks
and knives." Imagine him .as he drives
up In front of Dickinson House, his
valet preceding him with his suit case,
while from the window above Doc. Mac
nooder nearly faints with surprise with
Just Btrength sufficient to exclaim,
"Keeroogalum!" Hungry Smeed, figs
head, Turkey Reiter and all the rent
rush to the window and look down upon
the vision of fashionable Broadway
"Holy Cats! What Is It? Have I lived
to eee It? It's a beetle! No, It's a
dentist! It's a butler!" are some of the
expressions from the upstairs window,
aa poor stylish Skinner and his val-
let enter the most graceless house In
the Circle. Then poor old colored Klon
dike, the Janitor, Is called in and dressed
up as a valet In caricature, with silk
hat and turkey feathers, and he pre
sents the calling cards of the upstairs
gentlemen, one at a time to Montague
Skinner and from then on the tin
grows, until poor Skinner Is no longer
Raw Beefsteak but well done and tough
all over. The book Is a laugh from be
ginning to end and Tennessee Shad Is
In the very thick of It.

"The Daring Twins," by Frank Baum.
The five little Darings had been left
all alone with the trying situation of
earning a livelihood and for a time The
Twins, being the oldest of the family
and upon whose shoulders these sore
perplexities had fallen, stood In dumb
amazement gazing out Into what seemed
to these young folks a vast expanse.
It was just at this time that the chil
dren's favorite author, L,. Frank Baum,
found them, realized upon short ac
quaintance that the Darings were not
"daring" in name only, took up the
thr;ad of their lives and wove It Into
tho most charming story imaginable.
Phil and Phoebe had not quite fin
ished school nt the opening of the story,
but by careful management they were
enabled lo finish their term and then
Phil, through the good recommendation
which an honest, upright boyhood had
glvr-n him, secured a place in the bank
of the town. Conscientious work soon

possible in dentistry. It Is an easy
matter for a f.iki-r in any line to claim
to lie u top-notrher and to fool some
of the pi-npin some of the time, but
not all of the. people all the time. When
a person of ordinary Intelligence Is
fooled by a quack dentist he deserves
no o.vmuathv. It's his own funU TW
pie who get bunkoed seldom ever trou-
nie inemseive. with inquiries, or with
making useful observations.

reality very rich, and that an old serv
ant is trying by every means to defraud
the.ni of their rights to an Inheritance,
but Phoebe Is a "Daring Twin," and to

dle. The story Is no fairy tale, but the
real life of real boys and girls. They
all have a host of fun Intermingled with
the trials, which are made Insignificant
by tholr perpetual cheerfulness. It con

How to Grow Them," by William C.

of what the publishers are pleased to,
and very appropriately call "The Garden

They mark a new era in garden

Illustrated hand books on home gar

America These volumes are all written
by competent authorities on the sub
jects, are full of good, helpful advice
and instruction for all who grow plantu
and flowers, and those who take an In
terest in the maintenance and Improve
ment of the country home gardens.
There is no flower known, perhaps,
whose evolution from the unknown and
Insignificant to the popular and magni
ficent has been so great an, that of the
Chrysanthemum. From the tiny llttlo
button that was wont to shiver in the
autumn blasts, has grown In sire a,nd
gorgeousness almost the queen of all
flowers. To raise them has been a
perfect craze, and the most expert flor
ists have often failed to grow the per
fect flower, while the amateur has been
In dispair, and all for the want of
knowing Just those essential things,
simple In themselves generally, that
must be known to obtain results. Mr.
Powell has brought the raising of this
fall bloom Into a simple science In his
little book, and by closely studying It,
and observing the methods he lays out
no one should fail who attempts to
raise them.
What Mr. Powell has done to Instruct
the amateur in the raising of Chrysan
themums. Mr. McCullom has accom
plished In his instructions for raising
vines. No suburban home can be either
beautiful or artistic without vines; nor
oan It be comfortable without their
shade and protection. There is no class
of plants that requires better taste and
Judgment, or more discriminating care
in planting than vines for a homely,
unseasonable or neglected vine creates
Just the conditions they are Intended
to correct. Mr. McCullom takes up
both the very ordinary, and extraordin
ary species, and gives definite instruc
tions as to soil, care, places and every
detail of their growth that will pro
duce the best results.
