Arthur Garfield Hays tells in his new book "Let Freedom Ring" how some words of Lincoln‘s to the effect that the people had the right to amend or overthrow their governtment were vigorously hissed by an audiâ€" ence unaware of their authorship. _ Esther Forbes has> done THEC Hre and gratifying thing, write a second book as good as her first. She has accomplished this probably by doing that other.rare thing making her second book different from her first. en e e ie va "O Genteel Lady" received Such praise that Miss Forbes might have been tempted to try another of that preeminently charming quasiâ€"serious style, but in "A Mirror for Witches" she has tackled sterner stuff. She has gone back to the days of the Saâ€" lem witches and has not only captured remarkably well the spirit of the age but its diction also, and its quaint primness and severity of tone. It seems that Babe Ruth has made Miss Forbes tells her story with her tongue i,mEerceptibl_\' inclined toward her cheek so that, even as we should probably see it in documents of that day, we see the judges and accusers as the evildoers and the witch herself as the innocent wronged. So her tale becomes not only a narrative but a subtle satire of that stern and selfâ€" rightcous age. â€" _ ~WCOX3Pâ€"Fsther Forbes We are becoming tremf_ndongly paâ€" Bilby‘s Doll, born of witch parentâ€" age in Brittany was brought to the coasts of the New World by a fosterâ€" father who having rescued her from the fire which consumed her parents fell so under her spell that he loved her above all mortal things. Though she was always persecuted by his jealous wife, yet she grew up hapâ€" pily emough for she spent most of her time in the woods and fields with him. Then gradually as the years go on strange things which happen in the community and cannot be explained in other ways come to be laid to the memory of witcheraft brought by Doll from those far. off infantile years. So we see how to an imaginative child the picture of witchcraft always held up before herself comes to be beâ€" lieved and she does at last accept the fact that she is a witch. Inexorably then move the wheels of justice, never ~pausing until they have ground beâ€" tween them this poor suileless and \lonely child.

In "Daisy and Daphne" she has used it to mercilessâ€" ly expose the soul of a little middleâ€" class girl, whom after all we feel like reminding her, as the small school boy usually does the larger, "never did her no harm." So why should she enjoy being so ruthless? Miss Maâ€" caulay bases her story on & little technical device which it wou‘ld be unkind to disclose since to know it beforehand would impair one‘s pleasâ€" ure in the story. At t;vo;evl;jll;‘ of the book Daisy and Daphne are spending a few weeks asbroad in a semiâ€"secretarial “Pfig sion bolsheviks, Italian reformers, sCiâ€" ence and writing books on sculpture. Daisy and Daphne are exhilirated by this rare atmosphere, they were born down on the plains. In the course of the weeks Daisy falls in love with Raymond Foylet, the scientist, and Raymond in love with Daphne. The rest of the book is given up to the painful proving of the fact that try as you will middle classism will out, and out at the very least convenient and out at moments. The story is written brilliantly but it is not happy reading. Its moral is, that brave as may be our resoluâ€" tion to get out or ourselves, begin the new life which periodical defeats make us think not only noble but adâ€" visable, it is hard to do. We are what Esmm e es en ies ee is we are, thinks Miss Macaulay and it takes a lot of changing to make us anything different.

Sunshing isn‘t the whole thing in making hard, durable teeth but it has a lot to do with the chemical processes which convert the right food materials into teeth, bone and muscle. * €.P. DUTTON & CO.
