Xaxim Gorky's lsst novel. ' Mother " was
written In America, though the s'ory Is
thoroughly Russisn. It see mi a little
trsnae that so great a work, dealing so
entirely in events In Russia, should be first
giren to the world In English. The novel
k was Srst published as a serial ia Appleton
Magax-.ns and the bork Is published by V
Appleton A Compary. Ths story takes Us
lima from a peasant mother whosa son be
comes Involved with the revolutionist a. the
mother herself gradually being draws into
the dramatic sniggle for life and liberty.
Ths book in cpenu g deal with tbs wretch

bara been debased and brutallsed by their
masters The picture of Michael, with his
vn coot rolled bestiaj forca. is revolting in
the extreme. The book is dark. 4ir.gr and
bopaleM. This Is slightly relieved ty the
little band of young and struggling revolu
tionists who are. willing to aacrlnoa every -VBIr.g
for hope of freedom. Tet they seem
te preach and procrastinate, rel'.erating
their senUmeota. until on Is a bit tirad
aad wtshas they would hastes and do some
thing. The mother Is surprising In her ua
ftswaJ developmeat from a broken down.
disheartened woman to a leader of a great
movement. The prompting of her mother
love and the love of mankind explains this,
partially, yet, one would think, if the
mothers of Russia were capable of such
reformation the problems cf that dark em
pire would be solved, or at least take on a
different aspect. The book is lofty in tone,
the scenes are lurid and painfully realistic,
so much so that had they not ben placed
In.Rusf.a, tht-y would almost be discredited.
The message of the bock is that in the
younger generation lies Russia I hope,
"The Sons of the Seigneur," by Helen
Wallace, la a romantic love story. The
scene Is laid In the Island of Guernaey
during the time of Cromwell. Two brothers
of Puritan birth are suitors for the hand
of a royalist maiden. One of them, the
younger. Is honest and open nalured, tender
and self-aaciincing in his love; the other
of colder temperament, crafty and selfish
The young king. Charles II. appears In the
story, and it is his visit to the If land in
dutgulsa on ahich the story turns. Both
brothers are mixed up in the rorsl'st plot
and Intrigue, and circumstances make the
younger, in order to serve the aoman Ut
loves, the protector of the king, and an
apparent loyalist. He Is -ondemned for
treason by the Puritan government, and
events follow fast. The action of the story
la strong and exciting throughout, and the
bock ends happily In the good old-fashioned
ay. Published by the Outlcg Publishing
company.
The September number of the National
Is tiled with aa abundance of bifh-class
notion and verse. Among t.'.e special arti
cle Is one by Sidney J. iMiloa on "The

Carlyle Ellia. The departments, "Affairs

In view of the present agitation on the
subject of the elk and his slaughter, the
feature article in Our Country for Septem

by William Brent AKaheler, la not only
interesting but timely. Mr. Alttheler s de

"The Lady ol the Blue Motor." by S.dney
Paternoster, author of "The Cruise of the

"The Lady of the Biue Motor la an auda

than a spice of danger could not of course
be duf regarded ty any gallant fellow

promptly to the occasion. Across France
