Matthews, Mary Anderson. Love vs. law. $1.50. Broadway pub.
The interestingly sketched career of a young Wellesley graduate who returns to her Missouri home and determines to study law. This fair Portia is admitted to the bar, conducts many a successful case, becomes an advocate of equal rights, but withal loses not for a moment her girlish winsomeness nor womanly courage. Eventually she becomes wholly reconciled to the part that Cupid plays in staying the progress of her profession.
Mauclair, Camille. [Auguste Rodin; the man, his ideas, his work.] $4. Dutton.
In this account of the sculptor and his work, the sculptor speaks for himself and his admiring biographer speaks for him; between them we are given a view of the methods of Rodin, and his valuable views upon the education of other sculptors.
“Though M. Mauclair is rather the advocate than the critic, his book, if only for the many quotations from the master’s conversations, is of genuine interest.”

“A precise though rather over-eulogistic statement of Rodin’s personality and work, and a study of the artist’s psychology and its application to his personal ideas upon the technical principles of sculpture and his methods of work.”
