With the publication of a niew volume, Tise World Over- (Appleton-Century>, Mrs. Wharton again reveals ber mastery over the shorter fiction form in a group of stories that are a clelight to read in their subtie portrayal of char-acter, in their expressive delineation of salient happenings. - The scenes of these- tales range f ronm -New York to Romie. Axong them are discovered sharp* portrayals, of 'the social world, excursions into the supernatural, the liveliest of satire, as well as- drain of strength.
