Tnrc omaita daily hee: Friday. rnrmuATtY in, 1004. Iff I u ( 'V 3 NEW BOOKS AND MAGAZINES Aimlce's fcr March an Autobiographical Novelette of a Sccietj OirL AUTHORS AND ARTISTS BY LILLIAN BELL A Thousand Pair Sample Slipper I The IIomenalMers" Is an Interesting Btady of a l.arirr Colon? of Poles in Oar of Ihr threat Amer Irnn Itles. Alnslee's for March open with a novel ette whlrh takes the Hhape of autobiograph ical notes by 11 m l"ty slti which tolls c if her experiences from tho time she wan 15 years of age to the time of her engage ment. It In original and dramatic and, what Is more Important, InteroHtlng. It I called "Miss Vanity." edited by Mary Hamilton Park. Maarten Maartcns has one of his characteristic talcs called '"Flvs Minutes' Conversation." "Her Letters frwrn Dakota" deals with a timely theme In. an extremely taking fashion. It Is by Miriam Mlchelson. author of "In the Hlshop's Car riage." The accond of the series, "Stories of the Street," by James II. Gannon, Is called "The Matrimony Syndicate." Roy Hornlmon has an Intensely Interesting; and dramatic story called "The Wits of Basil Wynyard." An unusually humorous tale Is "The Undoing of Ulyssi I'pdegraff,"' by W. I. Nesblt. Tallinn Hell has a Brood story of the difficulties of authors and artists In New York called "The Price of Quiet." E. Nesblt, who has so often delighted Alns lee's readers In the past year, has another story called "The Duel," whlrh has all the fascinating features of her previous work, together with more than usual strength. "A Ghost," by Juliet Wllbor Tompkins, is an unusual story, with good action and a dramatic climax. Edgar Baltus appears again with one of his characteristically crisp, epigrammatic essays entitled "In and Out of Court Circles." "The Diary of a Society Parasite," by OeraJdlne Honner, Is exactly what Its title Indicates, but with a touch of the better side of human nature that redeems It from cynicism. Acton Davles has another Interesting article on the theater. "The Housebuilders," by Karl Edwin Harrlmon, published George Jacobs company. Is not only an entertaining vol ume of Action, but an Interesting study of an interesting people, who constitute a large colony In one of our great American cities. The Polo Is little appreciated, be cause he Is little understood, but Mr. llar rlman has lived nmong the Toles, knows them Intimately and is known by them, and Is perhaps better qualified to tell their stories than any othor American writer. There are tales of pathos and tales of humor, but the strong note of them all Is the almost perfect assimilation of the Pole by this country. The stories are eight In number and are correlated, In which measure they have the value of a novel so fur as Interest is concerned and an added value Is that phases of the character are perhaps better treated In ahort-story form than In a continuous story. Being a socio .logical study, the volume postiesses a defi nite value above that of a book devised for mere entertainment, and it would seem that at this time, when the vital Interest of all America Is in the man who tolls, and particularly In the man from Europe, this book should make a place for Itself among book of fiction. Qlnn tt Co, have recently published a revised edition of "Mtdlaeval and Modern History," by Fhlllp Van Neas. The edition appears In two parts the first part en titled "The Middle Ages" and the second "The Modern Age." The unusual merit of the original work has been attested by the growing favor which 'It has met during the fifteen years since Its first publication. In the forthcoming edition the ventral per spective of the work la not essentially modified, but the emphasis n places la slightly shifted and the narrative of events brought up to the present time. The aeries of maps Is augmented by addition of new and valuable charts and each chapter is supplemented by lists of books tor reference and further reading. The Diversions of a Book Ixwer." by Adrian II. Jollne, author of the "Medita tions of An Autograph Collector," is com posed of the most interesting talk about books, authors, book collectors, their frlendu and their foea, fine bindings, odd and curi ous editions of sundry works, apt quota tions from little known authors, and num bers of anecdotes and stories of interesting people. "If you set a book colleotor going you mar never be sure when he will run down and cease to chatter," says Mr. Jollne. But In. this case the chatter la so kindly and Instructive, so enlivened with anecdotes and stories, that the reader Is only sorry when Mr. Jollne "run down." Published, by Harpers. In "American Maaters of Sculpture," by Charles H. Caffln, author of "American Masters of Painting." Mr. Caffln has at tempted to do for our sculpture what his successful former volume accomplished foi painting, and he writes with Ills usual vigor and clearness of the great American llgures in this art. Among the sculptors treated in special chapters are Bt. Quudeng, . Macmonnles, Ward, liurtlett, French, Horglum, Adams, Brenner, Warner, Nle taaus and Barnard, while the author also lives a summary of the progress of sculp ture In America and a resume of the pres ent situation, with the outlook for the fu ture. Published by IJoubliduy, Page & Co. Fresh glimpses Into the life of Washing Ion as a youth are afforded by Mrs. Burton HarriHon, who, in the Washington's birth lay number of the Youth's Companion (February IS), describes the home of the Virginia Fairfaxes, "Helvolr on the Io- tomae." People who huve been persuaded that there is nothing new in fiction may change that opinion after reading "Me loon's Item." Four other contributed torles, a score of anecdotes, humorous sketches and bits of biography, with a A Real Sensation In Slippers Today's Ihe Sample Slipper Sale 1 $15.00 Indies' Samplo Slippers $12.00 ladles' Sample Slippers $10.00 Ladles' Sample Slippers ... $.8.00 Ladles' Snmple Slippers $6.00 lAdles' Sample Slippers n $5.00 Ladles' Sample Slippers $4 00 Ijidles' Sample Slippers $3.00 Ladles' Sample S'lppers Some of these have been dows since Monday to give purchase Is.
