"THE YOUNGER - SET,” by Robert
\V. Chambers. (D. Appleton & Co.)
Marriage and divorce are the themes
from which Mr. Chambers has woven
his new atory, “The Younger Set." Out
of the handling of these delicate ques
tions tile author has constructed a plot
which Is decidedly Interesting and
lends to his romance something of the
seriousness of a clinical study of men
and women In what Is called "socie
ty.” And ho brings to his latest lit
erary work much of the charm and
fascination of his widely discussed sto-
ry, "The Fighting Chance.” Captain
Selivyn has been divorced from AUxe,
a Woman of great beauty and bril
liancy, but with an inherited taint of In
sanity In her blood. It Is because of this
Inheritance that she drifts away from
Selwyn and marries a gambler, who
abandons her as tho Insanity develops.
Her love for Selwyn remains, how
ever, and he protects and cares for
her on the ground that tho marriage
tio between them, although dissolved
by the divorce courts, still demands of
him that duty. In the meantime Cap
tain Selwyn. having left the United
Slates army (resigned his commission),
returns to New York, where lie falls
In love with Eileen Errol, the ward of
his sister and brother-in-law. The
book then Is written around the con
scientious scruples of Captain Selwyn
as to his right to marry again—to
again try to And real happiness after
Ills disappointments. Captain Selwyn,
loving Eileen and ahe loving him, de
cides that lie otfn not marry—that Ills
duty lies In the way of protecting and
looking after Ills divorced wife, now
helpless and practically insane. The
duty of a divorced man and wife to
each other Is the question at Issue In
tho novel. Eileen Errol has a charm
ing brother, Gerald, thoroughly Irre
sponsible and dissipated, for whom. In
addition to his sacrifices for his di
vorced wife. Curtain Selwyn also sac-
rlHces Ills money and time—to save
Gerald for Ills own and Ills sister's
sake, and. In so doing, ho Ands It
necessary to live In great poverty and
deprivation. Captain Selwyn Is a great
character—almost too great to lie nat
ural, surelv too good to be comforta
ble to live with. The pictures of life
In the upper circles In New York arc
drawn by Mr. Chambers with a strong
and cutting stroke of satire. Whether
tho society circles in New York are or
arc not -such ns are pictured by Mr,
Chambers, will not Interfere with the
great Interesting-holding capacity of
his otorv. In the book are the differ
ent characters' that arc supposed to
make UP the font society In New Yore
and other large cities—the, ''climbers.'
tho "yellow set,” and the well-bred.,
high-toned people. The book Is very i
Interesting and thoroughly diverting. !
When Captain Selwyn. Sparian-llke,
attempts to smother his love for j
charming Eileen, in Ills devotion to his -
afflicted divorced wife, the author uses i
the time-worn but accepted novelist's
license of a chance pistol shot to re
lease Captain Selwyn of the poor wife.;
Eileen Errol Is a very lovable and at
tractive character. Captain Selwyn.
ts before stated. Is lather a little too
abnormal and unnatural to be true to
life. No doubt there are men of the
type of Captain Selwyn. and the world
would be better (perhaps worse) If
there were more of his kind. The story-
ends well, as It should. Gerald Errol
reforms and has a runaway marriage
with a millionairess. Captain Selwyn,
having Invented “chaoslte," a great
explosive, which the government at
Washington accepts, he Is released
from the shadow of his divorced wife
by her death, he win* Eileen and we
are to suppose, or hope, lives happy
ever afterwarda.
Tho reader ts. of course. Impressed
with the fact that the “unexpected
happenings” (such as the chance pistol
shot) which straighten out matters for
persons concerned In the book never
would hnve occurred In veal life. In
real life Allxe would have continued
to live, to be a burden or otherwise to
Captain Selwyn, hut tho present-day
readers seem to demand and get “hap
py endings.” Tho Idea of the book,
too, Is to show that the salvation of
“society" Is the viewpoint of “the
younger set" now growing up In nil
large cities. That this younger set.
Judging by newspaper accounts, look
upon life and the proper conduct
therein differently from the older per
sons Is a debatable question. In the
book, too. there Is a picture or aeries
of pictures running through Its pages
of the delightfully happy married life
of Captain Selwyn'e sister and'her line
husband, with their charming family of
boys and girls. It Is this Incidental
sketch that leaven a pleasant Impres
sion In the reader's mind, as do the
graptc descriptions of Eileen Errol, a
most attractive character. Tho sales
of Mr. Chambers' books are remarka
ble. It must be explained by the
fact that he writes of subjects that
readers care for. and lie surely tells
his stories In a very human sort of
way. for "Tlis Younger Set” Is unde
niably ontcrtalnlng. from beginning to
end. In It there are the same variety
of characters, of the same set In socie
ty who occupied the pages of Mr.
Chambers' great "seller," "The Fight
ing Chance." “The Younger Set" no
doubt will equal the sale of "The Fight
ing Chance," and deserves It,

under the disadvantage (from the au
thor's point of view) of knowing what'* t

drawing, thrilling adventures as arc
described In the boolc. undoubtedly do
happen In certain portions of the West,
even If the “wild and woolly" section
Is being rapidly settled by outsiders.
The plot of the novel deals with the son

opens. A “Ay, by night" theatrical com

Winston, the wealthy young follow,

In the town where the company die-
handH lives* the husband of Beth Nor
veil (you see Winston didn’t know she
was married— Just think of the compli
cations upon tide disclosure). The hus
band, Farnham, Is n gambler, a roue, a
thief of mining property and Just at
this time Is endeavoring to steal the ore
from two poor, struggling miners. Win
ston enlists on tho side of the two poor
■ miners, discovert that Farnham la guil
ty of stealing ore, by a perilous descent
Into Farnham’s own mine. In a strug
gle to get out of the- mine, Winston In
jures a foreman. Farnham reports the
accident us the death ef the foreman.
Tho sheriff comes to arrest Winston
just as Beth Norveil, riding through
the darkness to warn the man she loves,
but can not marry. Right here there
Is a quantity of gun play. Farnham Is
killed, of course, relieving the situation
greatly* and Winston and Beth Norveil
separate, with hearts breaking (over
what? the reader will ask). Three years
later Winston finds Beth again: she
loves him, sends for him; she tells him
ugnln of her love, and the curtain very
properly unrolls itself down to the
stage. In ’ The Younger Bet” we have
presented to us the picture of a man
(Captain Selwyn) loving another wom
an. but believing that h!s duty to his
divorced wife will not allow him to ac
cept hie possible happiness. In “Beth
Non-ell" there Is the other side—namely,
of a woman who will not accept happi
ness and love because she feels that no
one has a right to secure a divorce on
any grounds. The two books there
fore present the two sides of the ques
tion. or at least the viewpoints of a
man and a woman on a great question
and In both books the matter Is very
strongly treated. t
"Beth Norveil” Is n way ahead of
most Western adventure stories and
while that i* not saying very much, In
this instance it dots mean that ’Beth
Norveil” Is a very Interesting, very well
written and attractive story.
"THE CODE OF VICTOR JALLOT.”
By Edward Childs Carpenter. (George
W. Jacobs ft Co.)
When Spain surrendered Louisiana to
the great Napoleon and he In turn sold,
or “gave it away,” as the Creoles put
It, to the United mates in 1803, the ma
jority of the people in Now Orleans
were anything but friendly to the now
government. Mr. < ’arpenter in his story,
“The Code of Victor Jallot,” has laid
the scene In New Orleans Just when
France turns over Louisiana to tne
United States. The author hss takon
as his hero a remarkable personage in
the shape of one Victor Jallot. who was.
all told, tho bnrber, tho dancing mostor,
dramatist, poet and fencing WMter. A
wonder lie was. all readers will admit.
Victor Jallot, of course, was of noble
birth, but would not disclose It, and the
author never really explains why there
was reason for concealing his right to
position In society, «* ho wit* ‘ho son of
.1 "soldier of Fr.tnoe," who fought, bled

"THE OVERMAN,” by Upton Bln-i ,
clalr. (Doubleday, Bags & Co.) In a
short story, called "The Overman," Mr.
Sinclair has written a very strange
dissertation upon man and Ills striv
ings to And the Invisible. In the story
there Is a man who had lived for twen
ty yeare upon an Island alone. The
book tells of the experiences of this
man—how ho lived within himself Wo!
how he communed with spirits of an
other sphere or star. Tho man tells
his brother, who had coma to release
him from tho desert Island, all of Ills
Illusions and hallucinations, whatever
they were, and how he would, for In
stance, go off by himself and Into a
kind ofrtrsncc gate off Into space, when
as ho afterwards explained ho was
communing with tho Invisible. The
book Is simply Interesting OS a study
of the mind. Had the hero of “The
Overman" attempted his "conimun-
Ings” within tho roach of a 'Jury, he
would have soon found himself In on
Insane asylum. Insane asylums tire
full of people who can give Mr. Sin
clair's hero cards and spades and heat
him ns to aberatlan, of the mind.
Therefore. It Is elmply the viewpoint
one takes In reading “The Overman.”
The Iconoclast will undoubtedly say
the hero was crazy, and nn doubt hi,
twenty years alono had made him In
sane. That Is tho best answer, nny-
wav. Mr. Sinclair has made Ills Short
story quite an Interesting study. A
great many people may like it, or pre
tend to.

“THE CLOSED - JALCONY.” By
Anne Gardner Hole. (C. M. Clark Pub.
Ilshlng Co.) "The Closed Balcony" I,
a book that can be highly recommended
by The Georgian for young men nnd
women. There are plenty of Incidents
In Its pages, and It Is So clean, the
Ideals are so high, the theme of life ad
vocated eo cheerful, that young nnd
old would be benefited by tno reading.
The (dot Is light, hinging upon the ill-
neia of the son of a largo family, who
move from place to place to strange
houses and localities seeking to beneAt
by the change tills young man's health.
There are many Incidents of Interest,
but to this reviewer’s way nt thinking,
It Is Hio teaching, without cant, which
Alla the pages, most pleasantly, of “The
Closed Balcony" that entitles it to be
highly recommended, particular!/ for
youthful readers. Tlirro are not many
books, far too few, that can he con

men and women, especially young
women, and It Is a pleasure tn here
speak a good word for “The Closed
