AMERICAN SISTERS
Elizabeth Corliott is an American novelist, whose reputation is growing, and although her novels are different in character from those of the Jate Edith Wharton, she deserves to ho as widely read. Her gift of describing the fortunes of a typical American family is finely developed, and those who read "The Langwortiij Family" will know what to expect in her new book. "The Far Down."
Jn this story she tells of two sisters, Madge and Tessie, who take upon their shoulders the welfare of the family after the death of their father. It is a big task and, while there is fine sacrifice, tense situations nro relieved by lighter moments. "Thfl Far Down," by Elizabeth Corbett. (Appleton Century.) .
