She JookM rr.rrf peraphlc than ever, envloped in a whit turki-h toweling bathrobe and with her hair In a brnM. Her brother lay on the divan Just n sh5 had left him tho nUht before." It wai then that rhn tried to teil him, but h rmly railed her a ns" f pheli-yhork. Mary writ homo b.irk to Chicago, wher her celebrated FurK'on father lived with his -uritc wife, Paula, a rand opera KiimT. liut the room she left did not fit tho Mary' that returned to it.

"The first Mrs. Voiiaton had lived ut '1' r the lnfluenre of the late Victorian e-th'tey, and Mary's room looked a a if it had been designed for i:i:iir;f tho lily maid of Astn'.at. ar effect which wax heightened by a lnrT' brown picture in a tread frame of Watt's .Sir Galahad." Mary punctured the Infinity of th room by unpacking the many accumulations of several years in New York. And when Aunt I,ucile, th pool old antique ram" poking In. .ch found that "Mary had reachout n'i'litrently for her ritrarett cas-, lighted one, and letting it droop at a rather impossible antri. supported bv the lightest pressure of her lips so that th smoke crept up over her face Into her lashes and h'-r hair, folded her hands demurely In her lap and waintcd for her aunt to on."

Mary Is supposed to sentimentalist, a rank liut she isn't, ratht-r ovorton1, too sensitive.

iallst would never have bothered to bo as honest as Mary. The tragedy

j i that Mary's honesty was met by ii r contemporaries. II r brother,

first, and then her lather, refused to li.steri. When she did find a poc-d listener, sh felt a lot better. But when the listener, himself, a romantic piano fine r, who had been leading the existence of a marble faun, turns practical business man and writes operas wholesale, the effect is dampening. Webber is of the F. Scott Fitzgerald school, ultra-modern.

And, as the author says in his preface, none of them rill take more of the reader's time than may be devoted to an accompanying till of tobacco. The reader, whether a smoker or not, will find a "pipeful" to fit his mood and the pungency to It hH taste in this bok by Christtopher Mo rely. I!y thos who know the man, many autobiographical bits will be noticed. To those who know the writer merely, it will b interesting to imagine the experiences that point to his sketches. To those who

, know neither the man nor the

writer, these entertaining essays will acquaint them with a rare and charming personality.
