LITERARY LIGHTS AND SHADOWS
Discussed By ARTHUR PENDENNIS, JUNIOR.
'•THE TEACHINGS OF THOMAS
HENRY HUXLEY.” By Irving Wilson
Voorhees. (Broadway Publishing Com
pany.)
A book called “The Teachings of
Thomas Henry Huxley." by Mr. Irving
Wilson Voorhees. recently published by
the Broadway Publishing Company, of
New York, Is a painstaking and careful
etudy of one of the greatest minds of
the nineteenth century, a scientist who
took and who still holds rank with
Darwin and Tyndall In the tremendous
Impression he has made upon modern
thought. In no sense has an attempt
been made to tbeat the subject of this
book exhaustively, but rather to point
oat dominant and world-embracing
principles which Professor Huxley held
aa a creator and critic of scientific
opinion. This book will appeal to that
great class of thoughtful readers, who
would like Professor Huxley's' phil
osophy In nutshell form. The great
object gained by reading this book Is
the clearing up In the reader’s mind of
any false Ideas as to Just wlmt Profei.
sor Huxley did believe In and did pro
mulgate. The reader can undoubtedly
be a conscientious Christian and be
lieve In many of the opinions given In
this book as being those of Professor
Huxley. Every thoughtful person Is
naturally Interested In one of the great
est thinkers of the nineteenth century
and everything that gives us a better,
fairer Idea of Professor Huxley Is to be
heartily welcomed. One of the Inter
esting things about this great man to
Georgians, and especially to Atlanta
and Augusta people, Is that Professor
Huxley was the uncle of Mr. Thomas K.
Scott, now general manager of the
Georgia railroad at Augusta. Mr. Scott's
mother was a Miss Huxley.
"THE ROMANCE OF AN OLD-
FASHIONED GENTLEMAN.” By K.
Hopkinson Smith. (Charles Scribner’s
Sons.)
We all welcome anything that Mr. F.
Hopkinson Smith, civil engineer, artist
and author, Is good enough to write and
*° let UH read. The fascination of Mr.
Smith's stories Is very difficult to de

The ehnrm Is there—Just what It Is
would be hard to say—Just a* It Is dlf- |

The best definition, possibly. Is that Mr.

“THE ADVENTURER,” by Lloyd Of.
bourne. (D. Appleton & Co.) Mr.
I Lloyd Osborune, tho stepson of Robert
| Louis Stevenson, has written a very
I interesting story, called - "The Adven
turer.” Mr. Osbourne writes well of
travel and adventure and his latest
, book, here discussed, Heems to be a
great Improvement over anything that
Ihe had written previously. Tho story
tells of Improbabilities, ns did Julsi
Verne’s stories, some of which are new
real working facts, for instance around
the world In So days (It Is now possi
ble to do It In much less time), and
submarine navigation.
In "The Adventurer" the story Is
about the hunt for lost treasure In the
northern part of South America. To
reach this treasure, Just south of Vene-
xttela. It was necessary to devise and
employ some, before this unknown,
method of crossing a hostile desert
country. A great Inventor was con
sulted and he projected and built a
ship on wheels, with sails, with
armament, etc. The principal part of
the book Is taken up, of course. In the
organisation of this party of adventur
crs. the construction of the sall-upon-
the-land ship und troubles In securing
| tho treasure, with many fights, muti
nies, etc., connected therewith. The
> Interest in the plot holds very well
I Indeed—although at the beginning of
the story wherein the hero Is attempt
ing to got a place among these adven-
| Hirers and his troubles about It are
, wearily drawn out. At times. In the
, beginning of tlie story, the reader Is
I likely to say to. himself that If the
• author does not hurry up and let the
! hero get started somewhere—let hint
get out of the mystic maze of un
necessary troubles and mistakes—the
reader will not bo able to finish the
book through lack of Interest. But
'after the real action begins It Is first-
rate. Of course, there Is a girl for the
hero to love and win. If there hadn't
been, Mr. Osbourne never would have
been able to get his book published,
minus the "heart-interest," except at his
own expense. The description of the
ship which navigates upon tha land Is
very Interesting. Taksn all together,
' the book will be enjoyed by any read

"THE DANCE OF LOVE.” By Dion
Clayton calthrop. (Henry Holt A Co.)
The story of "The Dance of Love" tells
all about a young chap of olden times
who, growing tired of "apron etrlngs,'
wanted to seo the World and Incl
dentally find the girl destined by Fate
to be Ills sweetheart. The hero has a
lovely mother and two brothers. At his
home are two girls, Alice and Yolande,
who love him In different ways. Alice
wan the girl for him, but he knew It
not. He starts on his quest the “Dance
of Love," hunting for tno girl, "the one
with the key of life on a chain about
Iter neck." And so Plpln begins his
quest, which laats for many years. He
has various trials, tribulations and
some pleasure. He meots many girls
and loves them, but never finds the
girl "with the key of life on a chain
about her neck."
Then he copies back to Alice, who
has waited and watched for Pip)n all
these weary years.
Picturesqueness and humor are the
strongest features of this romance of
mediaeval France and England. It Is
a tale of an Ideal love quest on which
the hero meets a dosen women, to each
of whom the author gives a distinct
Individuality. The nuthoFa skill at
making the leader feel the charm of
some of these women of yesterday, Is
very attractive. The dominant quail

“BAR-20.” By Clarence E. Mulford.
(Outing Publishing Co.) No doubt a
great many readers of Western stories
or even make-believe Western stories,
often wonder what such titles as "Bar-
20" mean. Out In the West a ranch
has a certain mark or brand which H
uses to place, with a red-hot Iron, upon
the flanks of every cow'or horse be
longing to the owner of the ranch.
These trade-marks or brands are usu

ten by Mr. Clarence E. Mulford of life
In Texas and New Mexico on a cattle
ranch. The characters In the atory are
the cowboys on this .ranch, designated
by Its cattle brand "Bar-20." The chief
desperado, or wild man, wus one Hup-
along Cassidy, a real Western type of
days gone b.v.
It Is doubtful If such Incidents aa
Mr. Mulford relates happen now In New
Mexico and Texas: certainly not In
Arizona, where this reviewer spent
some years. No doubt such happen
ings as the siege of a bar room by the
cowboys of "Bar-20," In which were
twelve cowboys from "C-JO" ranch, all
of whom were killed by our heroes of
'•Bar-20,'' have occurred In tho West,
but it must have been a long, long
time ago.
The etory Is a very good picture of
a certain period of Western life. It Is
much better; In fact, ahead of moat
Western stories—Tho Georgian has
mentioned some other Western stories
that were good. This book, “Bar-20,
Is excellent as an Interpretation of
long-gone Western days, this statement
being made with the distinct under
standing that It Is really the dim past
of which the reviewer speaks.
In Arizona there wero ulwayz two

Gila (this Is pronounced, as the reader
should know. "Heela") monster was
really dangerous to life from its bite.
But (hero never could be found In any
part of Arizona any of the upholder* of
the harmless view of the Gila monster
who would allow themselves to be ex
hibits tn prove their cause. Now In
"Bar-21)" Hopalong Cassidy shows the
utmost contempt for a Gila monster,
which comes near him. He was (of
couse) not afraid of It—no hero could
afford to he and remain tile hero of a
Western tale. But Instead of stoning
the monster to death or something of
the love of a Western girl for her poor,
uneducated father, who sells his sheep
to buy her a piano, goes to “Ban An-
tone" and Is Impoaed upon by the piano
dealers there, who self him u "piano-
player" without the piano. The old
ranrhnian brings back this "player" to
his daughter, and ha Is Immediately

posure of the trip taken to please his
daughter. Then Mr. Henry brings out
dellghtrully how the daughter prevents
the isior old tnun from discovering that
he had been Imposed upon and he dies
In the Arm belief that he hnd bought
the real piano. The other story. "The
Caballeros Way." Is a tale of the ven
geance upon his unfaithful sweetheart
by an outlaw. Mr. Henry Is goto]

"THE SECRET AGENT,” by Joseph
Conrad. (Harper A Bros.) Most read,
ere who have kept up with literature
have read some of Mr. Joseph Conrad'e
sen stories. In "The Secret Agent" the
author tells of London life—amidst tho
anarchists, the laboring people and some
members of the diplomatic corps. The
plot deals with ono "Mr. Verloc," who
Is employed by a certain embassy, and
has been so employed for a number
of years, to keep track upon the an
archists In London. Mr. Verloc Is
known, of course, as the friend of the
working men. hence his being In n po
sition to discover conspiracies. On the
other hand, he keeps the embassy ad
vised of the doings und habitats of all
the anarchists. A change In the ent
