10 TITF. OMAHA DAILY BEE: FRIDAY. DECEMBER S, 1003. CURRENT LITERATURE. Tha December issue of Talrs presents a remark ablo collection of stories from tha best llvlnir authors the world over. Of the eight laimuajtM represented Russian hag the, largest share, with a complete novel, "Children." by Nlcolal Teleshov. and short stories by( MaxJm Gorky and Schedrln. The duchess of frrlborouRh' portrait produced by a process hitherto unattempted In rrmgnslria literature, appears In the De rember Jesiie of the Smart Set as a frontis piece distinctive new feature. This Is the first series of new portraits of women rilfttlnriilKhi-d as leaders of society In the metropolitan oitlrs of the world to be published monthly .In. this enterprising magazine. Vp to date njid timely as usual are the .contents of the World Today for Decem ber, with a remarkable number of good Illustrations for a lO.rent magazine. Right to the point Is the article entitled "The Responsibilities of Insurance Officials." by W. D. Vsnfllvcr. state superintendent of Insurance for Missouri. The writer does not mince matters, but calls a spade a spade. "The InrfinVrenre of Juliet," by Oraee P. Richmond, affords Interesting and entertain' lng reading. Anthony Robeson Is an ener getic and ambitious young man. who. al though accustomed to the blessings of wealth, puts Ms shoulder to the wheel when the death of his father, followed by the loss of their fortune, makes It necessary. After live years of rncrget- work he determines to have a heme of his own, but he Is un able to win the promise of Jnllet Marcy to become Ms wife. On the theory that "All's fair In love," he selects a little "bog of a house" in the suburbs, whose possibilities, as well as cheapness, appeal to him. After his own labor has made great improve ments, he invites Juliet to assist him In furnishing the house for his prospective wife. His allowance for furnishings Is limited, and It takes some planning and scheming to make the most of It. but by the time It Is completed Juliet realizes that she really does care. Just as Anthony had hoped. Their contrivances, plana and man agement to make the "box of a house" a delightful home on their modest Income and an attractive spot for their fa-lends Is very Interestingly told. Although he book does not seem to be written for the special pur pose of pointing a morak It offers many suggestions as to wha may be accom plished with true love and a modest In come, and It Is a book which young men as well an young women will enjoy. Double day,' Page & Co. are the publishers. "Jules of the Oreat Heart," by Lawrence Mott, Is a story of the great Canadian wilderness, which is a world unto Itself a world of vast silences, of stinging winter storms and mysterious -summer beauty; a world where the primitive Instincts and passions rule. Jules Verbaux is a French Canadian trapper, a aort of modern Robin Hood, considered an outlaw by the Hudson Ray company and treated accordingly. Slyer than the fox. brave as tha lion, light hearted and passionate like his kind, it Is not to be wondered that he Is forever plung ing Into adventure, now .eluding the venge ance of .a company, official, new. the fierce onslaught of a half-breed trapper, and now battling with the fury of a winter atorm. We are eagerly one. with Jules In hla wild, fascinating life; his adventure, htf sorrow, his heart-sickness; and with tha last page we echo Jule s explanation. hl .vfogejJhce satisfied, hla love restored, "Je sula con tent." ,The Century company are the pub lishers. "Wilderness Babies," .by Julia A. Schwartz, have met with such favorable shU3 that the publisher have already ordered a third Impression of the regular edition, and a new edition for use In tha schools will be Issued after the holidays. ."Ben Pepper." by Margaret Sidney, the tenth volume 'of' Ilia' famous' "Pepper Books,;1 has. Just bc-sn published by Loth rop. Lee, & 8hepard company. The six Illustrations are by Eugene M. Wlreman. "Reading the 'Pepper Books' la Just like having the fun yourself, " Is the unique expression of a girl of 12 after reading these famous books, and no one has ever bolter expressed the true secret of the charm , and enormous popularity of tbia series, the tenth volume of which, "Ben Pepper." Is now ready. Other members of the family have had books named alter tlietn, and it was only fair that Ben, the "quiet, ateady-aa-a-rock boy," ehould have similar attention. Surely no one of the family was better worthy of a book to himself. Ben's resolute, unselfish charao Ur is finely brought out, and there are good tlmea and good actions without num ber. No one of the hosts of readers of the "Pepper Books" will long be willing to lie without this excellent addition to their number. ' Told by Uncle ftemua" la the title of Joel Chandler Harris' new volume of Uncle 'Remus atorlea. This collection of negro folklore tales has the same ly, chuckling humor that made the first book popular with old and young readers. The genial author, when he was asked to write more Uncle Remus stories, replied with bis characteristic modesty: . "Do you really think that people want to hear any more from old Uncle Remus T" Thera la no doubt of the answer to the queatlon being distinctly In the affirmative; and reader of the present volume, when they make or renew their acquaintance with cunning Brer Rabbit, sly Brer Fox. astute Brer Wolf, contented Sis Cow. and all the remainder of the amusing troupe, will be glad that Mr. Harris was persuaded that Mr. and Mrs. General Publio and the 11 1 Ua General Publicses did have an Interest In more Uncle Remua tales. There are full-page and Incidental illustrations by Frost. Conda and Verbeck. which add much to the humor of the narratives. Mc-Clure, Phillips & Company are publishers.
