Books and Magazines The March number of Appleton's Maga sine Is cheerful and Interesting from be ginning to end, with every line in It worth while. There are articles to amuse you, articles to make you stop and think, articles to Inform you (though gently), and articles to make,' you argue with each other. Add to these a serial with a real plot and seven good short stories, all with charm and smiles in them, one or two with a few tears, and you havs good measure for this ' magaslne of merit, whose chief mission Is to be more Interesting every month. . O. P. Putnam's 80ns take pleasure In an nouncing the combination with Putnam's Monthly of The Reader, which has come rapidly to the front under the energetic management of the Bobbs-Merritl com pany. The editors of The Reader havs given special attention to fiction and de scriptive articles, and the new monthly will present a larger number of stories and de scriptive articles than before, while the lit erary quality, which has been the distin guishing characteristics of Putnam's, will suffer no Impairment The publishers of the new magazine will be able to Include In their list of contributors certain writers whose co-operation had been secured for The Reader. Among the names which have become familiar to the readers of that monthly are those of George Ade, Allco Brown. Oelett Burgess. Esther and Lucia Chamberlain, Emerson Hough, Francis Lynda, Herbert Quick, James Whltcomb Riley, Octave Thanet, Anns Warner and Brand Whltlock.

QVi Aral ivmnbin was a redness, and thenfoUowed thicken lag and blisters, which would break and run matter. . I took her to a doctor, and he pronounced it to be ecnetua of a very bad form. He treated her, but Instead 0 being checked, the riliwase spread. It showed Itsulf on her back, and then quickly spread upwards until the whole (J her head was affected, and . all her hair had to be cut off. The pain aha suffered was excruciating, and whas with that and the heat and tin gling her life was almost unbearable. -Che became run down In health, and at times was very feverWh, languid, and drowsy, and occasionally she was de lirious, iter nerve were in suoh a low state that she could not bear to be left alone.

In the March number TTnele Magaslne (announces two interesting fea tures for the year. One Is the serial pub lication of a new novel by Will N. Harben. The new story will be called "Gilbert Neal" and the first Instalment will anDpar In th May number of the magaslne. The other Is a new department, "Uncle Remus and the Children," to be conducted by Joel Chand ler Harris. The fact that Mr. Harris will have personal charge of the department in sures something unique ' and whollv da- llghtful. "The Whole Family," the remarkable se rial novel now appearing In Harper's Ba sar. Is conceded by the critics to be the most striking feature In the magazine this year. "The Whole Famllv" Is written hv twelve of America's most famous authors, whose names are given here:' William Dean Howells, Mary E. Wllklns Freeman, John Kehdrick Bangs, Mary R.' 8. ' Andrews, Mary Stewart Cutting, Alice Brown, Henry van Dyke. Elisabeth Stuart Fhelps, ElliaJ beth Jordan, Edith Wyatt, Mary Heaton Vorse and Henry James. The novel is unique and wholly different from former composite novels In the fact, that each author writes his chapter in the first per son and as the mouthpiece of one member of the family. Moreover, the Basar is pub lishing the chapters without the names of the authors, and allowing the public to guess which has written each instalment. The Popular Science Monthly for March contains the following articles: "America's Intellectual. Product," by Prof. Arthur Gordon Webster; "A Grain of Truth in the Bushel of Christian Science Chaff." by Charles Clarence Batchelder; "A Visit to th Hangehow Bore," by Dr. Charles Key ser Edmonds; "Railway Accidents and ths Color Sense," by Prof. George M.

G. Filx-gerakt relating intereLlng experiments and experiences with "Dogs on the Battlefield." Then, besides all the stories, sketches and pictures of the num ber, begins a new series of "For Very Lit tle Folk" tales, "The Bear Family at Home and How the Circus Catns to Visit Them." Charles M.

In the March number he will describe th generil up heaval of old methods of transportation throughout th orient by such schemes as a railroad to Mecca, the Bagdad railroad, th motor car tn th desert and the Red Sea Una which will supplant the caravans that now run to ths capital of Abyssinia. Twenty storjes and a novelette are pre sented In Young's Magaslne for March. A girl with ths soul of an angel with a face th very opposite Is the heroine of Maurus Jokal's marvellous novelette, "The Little Scarecrow." The romance of this ugliest of women and a Parisian millionaire, a bored exquisite, is enthralling in its cleverness and, audacity. It "carries the reader from the theaters and boudoirs of Paris to a stench-filled guano island In the middle of the ocean, through' incredible adventures, and back again to the gay boulevards of the French capital. A score of short stories kee up the pace set, by this unusual nov elette. R. J. Cooke, D.
