X. acnillan. In order to fill advance orders for Mary Peters, the new novel of Maine and the.sea, by Mary Ellen Chase, two printings of 10,000 copies each were made before the publication day. Miss Chase was asked to tell some- thing of the book's beginnings, and here is her reply: "When I was a child in Maine during the nineties, 1 knew intimately men who -sailed the Seven Seas as masters of ,ships in the f oreign trade. I knew, too, Maine women who had sailed with their bus- bands. In my own family my grand- parents had known Cadiz and Hong- kong and Bombay; they had known, t0o, shipwreck and mutiny. 1 grew early familiar with the understandind that because of the life they had lived, such men and women were dif- ferent from the other people of my native village. My book, Mary Peters, s.an attempt to portray the long effects of this life upon the mind and the emotions of a woman, who, born off Singapore in 1871, followed the sea in ber father's ship during her formative years. "College professors turn novelists at heir own peril, perhaps also. at the peril of their novels. How this book bas been written during the past year in the intervals between teaching, be- ween reading freshman themes and, ecturig on far more distinguished fic- ion, between telephone calîs, book agents, and faculty meetings, is a mystery which I shall neyer solve. It has been opened to receive a fewv hurried para- raplis in railway stations, lunch rooms anld churches, in steamfship cabins and on snowbound day coach in northern Mvinnesota-. It has been fished once from a mountain stream in New Hamp- shire and once again f rom a scrap-bas- ket to which it was assigned (perhaps quite wisely!) by a Polish cleaning- woman. Miss Chase, Professor of English at Smith College, has just sailed for a year's vacation abroad. Biography %ly COUSIN, F. MARION CRAWFORD). By Maud Howe Elliott. Macmillan. Amusing sidelights on celebrities of the day are to be found in the forthcoming biography of Marion Crawford, novelist. Crawford's uncle, Samuel Ward, wrote him from New York in 1882: I could not get to Newport, having to take Oscar Wilde to Long Brandi. Today hie is with Henry Ward Beecher, who seems to be drifting Dut of'religion as Channing, with ail bis Protean changes of face, strove to drift into, it. I dined last night W*ith Theodore Tilton, the Roman artist . . . . Tilton knew intimately Longfellow, Emerson,- Hawthorne, and ail their circle. He also knows Browning and.says bis boy as been ensnared by an Ogress of Munichi. He has no mastery of color but mani- fests higli plastic sense and will make a scuptor . .. . Tilton said that when 'Ti'e Marbie Faun'. was finished its art criticism was found so faulty that the ýms. was confided. to, an. expert to correct it in many particulars and bhat Hawthorne had no sense of ýart 9.
