that vivacious and daring book, “Modern Marriage and How to Bear it.” As might be expected, some of the serious problems of women are dealt with in its pages. The story concerns the fortunes of brilliant and undisciplined Dolly who, on the death of her mother, an actress, is compelled by the decree of a mysterious trustee to go first to a convent- school and afterwards become a hospital nurse. Her temptations and adventures at the Wimpole Street Nursing Home—(in which environment other characters of much interest appear)—her tragic love affair, and the depths to which it brings her, together with her subsequent redemption, are related in a manner which makes a special appeal to the heart.
