IN THE LIMELIGHT.

By Frank Harris.

The International for August looks good. It is now edited by Aleister Crowley, and he has put in it stories of Anatole France and Arthur Schnitzler that everyone should read.

Aleister Crowley is a strange and original personality. He has gone up and down the earth seeking, not whom he may devour, but to learn and to know. He has a touch of the mystic in him, but at the worst is always a born writer and poet. What he will do is still on the knees of the gods; but he has already written a good deal that is interesting.

He is an Irishman by birth, and can therefore see the English from the American angle, which exasperates them but is very wholesome for them. There are sure to be interesting things in The International under his editorship.
