Mrs. Martin and Mrs. Worth each read a short poem, and the pleasant afternoon closed with conversation and licht re freshments. The Book Club has resumed Its work. This club clings to the title assumed when lirst organized ten years ago. when it was the only one existing in the town, as it is still. I believe. The Monday Afternoon Club belns com posed entirely of residents of Hay mount. It Is limited to fourteen mem bers, chosen by ballot, as vacancies oc cur. "For this year they have chosen a study of some noted women of serious periods and climes. At the first meet ing last week a charming description of Helen of Troy, by Mrs. J. C. Halgh, a character sketch of Cleopatra showing her power over the hearts and minds of men, by Miss Ray. a selection from the Iliad, by Mrs-,. Hushes, and the Death Scene from Sleakes; poem by Mrs. Benjamin R. Huske, made the evening very interesting to those pres ent. Last year the club took up the study of the pricipal cities of America and the men and forces who nvide them creat, and prior to that the old Korth State was the subject of the year's calendar. Following is the per sonnel of the two clubs: The Mcn dav Aft'rnoon Club is composed of Mrs. E. J. Lilly, president; Mrs. S. H. MacRae, vice prasident: Miss Haii?h. recretary and treasurer; members.

Miss ' Jennings proved herself a charming hostess and the cfternoon was one of great pleasure. ' There are fashions t'n books as In everything else, and the changes of - "style" are as marked, from year t- year, in the output of the literary work f ns in the cut of our garments or the v models of our household furnishings. Looking back on some of the prinriil - books that hsve baen given to the world' during the last decade or more y tint can Bee how the trend of litera t ture had Changed. It is a fsr cry from 1 the Green Csrnatlon to Mrs. Wiggs of t tho Cabbage Patch. Ten years ago the analytical, novel was to the fore. We had Th Oreeri Carnation, The Sup;r ;l fluous Woman, The Heavenly Twins. " Ship that Pass fn the Night, and many others of Jike kind, and most of them bywbmen, who must have been suffering with a sort of mental dy pepsla, to judge from the morbid tone ' of the books. Then we harf the story f of adventure, . Mr. Stanley Weyman gave us the swashbuckler hero.

Who was it set the fashion? ' Was It Miss Jose phine Dodge Daakam with her quaint and charming revelation of the child's heart and mind. The stories have fol lowed ko close, one upon another that It is difficult to determine the pioneer. We have had Emmy Lou's Book of the Heart, by George Maddln Martin, and the charming stories by Ray Half Gib son, and then again Miss Daskam (us she Is still known in the literary world.) has given us her delightful Meme-irs of a Baby, and we have had Lovey Mary, which might perhaps properly come under this category. The analytical novel has gone out almost entirely, rueh dories as The 1 Green Carnation have lost their hold on -the reading public. The editors and publishers are looking for tales full of sunshine stories with happy endings. The edi tors of some of the most prominent magazines have come out boldly and hnnnv ntnr'cs " Mra Wliren anil Susan Clegg and Her Friend Mrs. Latterop. are sweeping the miasma of pessi mism from the llterarv atmosphere.

Well. I guess not.

Whereupon she proceeds to pursue an aggressive and persistent policy of courtship which Is as original as It is amusing. "The Masquarader," by Katherine Cecil Thurston, recently appearing in Harper's Bazaar, is a clever tale wltii an Improbable plot told In so cunning a manner that one forgets for the time being the very laws of nature and be lieves with the author in the possibility of the impossible. How two men meet in London fog the one John Chilcote. a British peer, the other John Loder, also an Englishman, but a poverty stricken "hack" writer. How then the fog clears they find themselves identical In form and feature and how they change places and the poor lit era -teur, masking in the habilamcnts of hi double becomes a member of Par liament, and regains for Chilcote, un der his assumed narna, the place he had well-nigh lost through the use of drugs, among his fellow-members and In his social life, not regaining only this but making for him a higher place, these and the complications that arise therefrom und the love-story running through the woof of the. whole makes reading of lntensest interest, and proves Miss Thurston a very mistress fu the art of juggling with truth and making the false seem raal. As a de lineator of character Miss Thurston is good. The, two men so like and yet; ro unlike, their strength find tt.'ir weakness with the one appetite, witli the other ambltlrn -arc well drawn. She makes of Loder a most llkuble character; hbj strength is the strength of vigorous, honest manhood, his weak ness the w-eakness . of a man who, through his great ambition and the sudden possibility of its lead him into a hazardous realization, I and dubious i relationship, one feels sure when the crucial moment comes he will meet it like ft man. Altogether the story is one well worth reading. CELIA MYROVER ROBIKSON.
