MR. VACHELL'S LATEST
Mr. Horace Annesley Vachell, who confesses in his novel, "Phoebe's Guest House/' that he has been entertaining us all for forty years, proves that he has lost none of his power to please. It is quite unnecessary to detail the plot, for "Phoebe's Guest House" explains its theme. Phoobo inherits a boarding establishment and decides to launch out, and as she possesses ideas which, though laudable, are expensive and uneconomic, the result will be imagined. With a light touch Mr. Vachell takes his readers behind the scenes of a drama which after all is real life, with the result that Phoebe will be remembered as one of Mr. Vachell's most successful heroines. "Phoebe's Guest House," by Horace Annesley Vachell (Cassell).
