WHEN A MAN MARRIES. By Mary Roberts Rinehart. Illustrated by
Harrison Fisher and Mayo Bunker.
A young artist, whose wife had recently divorced him, finds that a
visit is due from his Aunt Selina, an elderly lady having ideas
about things quite apart from the Bohemian set in which her nephew
is a shining light. The way in which matters are temporarily
adjusted forms the motif of the story.
A farcical extravaganza, dramatized under the title of "Seven Days"
THE FASHIONABLE ADVENTURES OF JOSHUA CRAIG. By David Graham
Phillips. Illustrated.
A young westerner, uncouth and unconventional, appears in political

Merrill.
Against the familiar background of American town life, the author
portrays a group of people strangely involved in a mystery. "Doc."

HOLY ORDERS. By Marie Corelli.

society people, stage favorites, simple village folk, powerful
financiers and others, each presenting vital problems to this man

Thulstrup.
