There is something very human about that remark, and rather pathetic. To come into great wealth is the buiHed dream of all or us; but we want it while we still have in i across its pages in their several and various roles. The guillotining of Marie Antoinette is stark realism. And through it all we find favored of the people checkmating here, trumping there the bloody purposes of Robespierre, gambling with death in his stead fast loyalty to his king, and pursu ing his love for adorable Aline. The reader finishes the book feeling that In the dashing guise of Scaramouche he has ridden the whirlwind and guided the destiny of the French Revolution. o - year - oia a snare in Scara-mouche- desire to satisfy, and dreams to fulfill and years to waste. To grow suddenly rich at 75 Is better, probably, than not to get rich at all, but it is not a great deal better. For youth is not on the market, and when the last flicker of youth has vanished there is not a great deal else than the ordinary person wants to buy. Indeed, this attitude explains a great deal, when you stop to think about it. It explains why schemes always have flourished, and always will. It explains why there are always plenty of people to buy lottery tickets, and dream of the lucky stroke of chance that may enrich them. It explains why decent young men occasionaly turn into embezzlers and defaulters. It explains why a gold rush will recruit men from all over the world. An industrous and gifted man can very often make a huge fortune In business. But he can't make it all at once, and that Is the whole trouble. For, when we dream about being rich, we dcln't put it far in the future. We want it now, while we have vi tor and long years and bright hopes to squander. The long clllrnb up the ladder, looked at from that angle, sometimes seems ossibly tedious. una is hub, too, wnecner one s aesires are noole or ajiu . The man to whom fortune is only a means of eratifyine his? appetites will quite naturally want the money while he is young; but so, too, will the person who wants money for the leisure It will bring him, for the release that it will mean from petty cares and mean demands, for the doors that it will open to the things of the spirit. And that, of course, is where life always seems hard and cruel. Unless a man is the especial favorite of the gods, things won't work out as he wishes. We dream of money, which is way of saying that we dream of complete freedom; but we have to put in long years of service first, and if we can't find our compensions in serving we are out of luck. Riches and youth do not go hand In hand. Exchange. SUSAN SPRAY: By Sheila Kaye- Smith, 385 pp. $2.50. This is one of the strangest char acters that one could imagine.
