Btory of Life by EoWrt E. Kn dries. TWO JAPANtSE TALES ARE IN THE LIST Rooks for Boys and tllrla by Alice Ward Bailey aad Allen French Are Worth While Other New Boeke. "The fndertow," by Robert E. Knowlea. author of "Bt Cuthberfs." Is a tale of both aides of the sea. Mr. Knowles hss pic tured the world s old struggle of life; the rushing wave of good aspiration and the silent undertow of the senses. Ills charac ters are Intensely real; his plot Is unusual and very charming. The story Is that of many; told with fervor and pathos, the sympathy that helps not the scorn that scorches. It Is a big theme, handled with skill, and In spite of a aevere probing of our common weakness the aftermath Is sweet. Published by the Fleming H. Re veil company. "McDonald of Oregon.", by Eva Emery Dye, author of "The Conquest," "Mc Loughlfn Of Old Oregon," etc.. Is a story of two shores. The chance casting away of a party of Japanese on the Oregon coast many years ago Inspired McDonald, a fully historical personage, to enact a similar drama in his own proper self with the characters and continents reversed. Land tng on the shores of Japan he was passed from governor to governor until he reached the capital. There he waa permitted to establish a School, and it was actually his pupils who acted aa interpreters during the negotiations with Commodore Perry, gen erally supposed to be the first of Americans to enter Japan. Mrs. Dye haa long been aware of the facta In McDonald's unusual career, having obtained them largely from his own lips, but she deferred publication until his papers finally reposed In her hands. Illustrated by Walter J. Enrlght. Published by McClurg A Co. . "Hearts and the Cross," by Harold Mor ton Kramer, is a novel with a fresh field of action and original In conception and treatment. The story is of a man whose vigorous personality enables him to do Justice to himself, and to secure Justice for himself under most trying conditions. A mysterious wanderer, he wins the better element of a somewhat rough community by his eloquence as the preacher In a ne glected parish, meanwhile working In the fields for his support. His fearless honesty and sympathy provoked deadly hatred, augmented by the Jealousy of the lover of the heroine Whose interest in the mysteri ous preacher, so clearly above hla present station, adds fuel to the Jealous flame. Lawlessness, heroism, and noble self-sacrifice have their part in the development of an intensely dramatic plot, the interest of which Is sustained until the mystery is cleared away, and a satisfactory conclusion Is reached with exceeding Joy to those who deserve it.
