With rig orous logio Mr. Wells traces the course of events in the future as Indicated by the past, preserving the probabilities at every step with the utmost Ingenuity. The result is a story of a great catastrophe told as If it were not a prophecy, but actual history, and carrying conviction by Its avoidance of all extravagances. Apart from its Interest as a prediction of what the world may be ooming to, this Is one of the best romances Mr. Wells has ever written. Probably the scenes of a real war have never been more realistically described than this imaginary future war. The leading characters In the story are admirably represented, and there' Is no little humor In the representa tion of Bert's cockney provincialism; the arrogance and the sentimentality of the Inventor, Butterldge, and the discomfiture of the Germans when they learn who their enforced passenger really la. Published by the Macmillan Company. To say that "Friendship Village," the new book by Zona Gale, the author of "The Loves of Pelican and Etarre," la better even than Its predecessor, may seem ex travagant praise. The people one meets In the pages of "Friendship Village" are so real that they cannot be entirely "made up" characters. The charm of the book the exqulalte truth of Its delineations, will be fully appreciated only by those who have lived or at least visited in a small American village, aay of the middle west. lot there is so much universal humanity in these characters that even the most connrmea city dweller could not miss all of meir. attraction.

Many Freak Newspapers nf Mhich the tSeneral Pahlic Knows Little. In these progressive days every profes- n, trade, calling, avocation, Interest, fad, cult what not has Its organ, more or less reputable snd authoritative, but nearly always interestfng to the curious. It would ppear that the publication of "freak" periodicals, magazines and Journals finds a profitable field trroughout the world, In asmuch as a goodly number of them have their birth in fore'gn countries, though the United States furnisher Its due quota. The first of the odd sheets devoted to the "Interests" of encaged couples ap peared a few years ago In Paris, and while at first thought it might be sup posed that Its field would be quite limited, It nevertheless prospers. Agents In the service of this Journal are employed at various points In France collecting Items of interest to folks who have contracted to marry. In each Issue there are sec forth In the paper ihe namea, addresses and other Information concerning engaged couples. Each maiden mentioned receives a free subscription for k limited period. The real beneficiaries of this publication are the tradesmen taking the paper, inas much as they are able to approach the girl Intending to n arr with more or less alluring lnducnmtm n the way of ma terials for trousseau? etc. Against the paper for the engaged there may be cited aa an effect a Journal for bachelors, printed In ihe United States. This periodical was the idea of members of a bachelors' club In an eastern city and Its columns ate given over to articles from the pens of gentlemen fond of argument In support of the blessedness of "The Single Life," which is. In fact, the name of the paper. A standing caption in this paper is a quotation from Rudyard Kip ling, who, a a bacholor, declared that "he travela farthest who travels alone." The original sheet devoted exclusively to the "Interests" of beggars was born In Paris. This paper, entitled Le Bon Guide, affords dally a complete list of the bap tisms, weddings and funerals to take place in Paris on that day, in order that Its patrons may be well posted as to favor able localities wherein to pursue the day's work. For begging letter writers Le Bon Guide publishes a list of the addresses, arrivals and departures of travelers known to be of charitable disposition. The beggar in London, too. h Ave thlt organ, but it i not of so "high class" a nature as the Parisian publication. The English Beggars' Journal Is a weekly and prides Itself on the exclusive character of its Information,. It Is unique in that It 1s written, not printed, by a mimeograph, the paper employed being the coarse brown variety commonly used by butchers and grocers In which to wrap their wares. There are lots of other papers for beg gar published In various foreign countries, ana in ine united States, too, but the French and English sheets are remarkable by reason of their enormous subscription lists and for the unquestionable Influence they exert- . Another queer French Journal, which died not long ago, waa Le Bien Etre, whose sole object for existence seemed to be an old age pension scheme. To aubscrlbers who should die at the expiration of forty years. Le Blen offered a free burial. Le Courier des Balgneurs (Bathers' Courier) Is the product of a well known French seaside resort. It Is printed on waterproof paper, the inducement to buy Doing predicted evidently on the Idea that the bather may take his Journal Into the ocean with him and so enjoy its perusal while bathing. Publications, obviously not of a particu larly cheerful nature, are the Undertakers' Journal and the Hangman's Record, both published In the British capital. It is dif ficult to assign a reason for the latter. but as it Is of respectable age, there must, of course, be a demand for the grim sort of news It dispenses. The New Moon, moat appropriately named, Is a paper published In the United States by a certain institution for the In sane, If any one supposes that Its columns are devoid of Interest for a Bane individual. men ne la much mistaken, for contributions from the pens of Inmates of the asylum frequently evince literary ability of no mean order. In the matter of mere untillty the palm must be awarded a newspaper published In a fishing town of Norway. This Journal points with pride to the fact that it Is printed upon paper of so tough a quality, wnen read. It miy be cut In strips and twisted Into a most serviceable rope, which I no small Inducement when the calling of the vlllagera Is taken into consideration. An odd periodical In this country Is the Walters' Friend, which presents the unique appearance of being printed In five lan guages English, French, Oerman, Italian and Swedish-arranged In alternate col umns. Another product of American Ingenuity in the way of freak papers is one pub lished In a southern city In the Interest of paper hangers. This odd organ Is of excel lent typographical appearance, but the paper whereon it is printed Is no other than wall paper, or rather the cuttings remaining of wall paper used for the usual purpose. Trade pride, presumably. Is to be assigned as the reason for this strange, notion. One enterprising owner in an Ohio town conceived the laudable dealre to provide peraona with weak eyea with a Journal that would Incur no Injury or fatigue to them. This was to be done by means of green piper and white ink. The scheme was, how ever, unsuccessful, and the paper died an early death. Among other American papers of the freak kind the following, whose titles af ford a sufficient hint aa to their purpose, thern may be mentioned the following: The Divorce Seekers' News, How to Get a Government Office, How Mother Used to Cook It, Help for Those in Hard Luck and the Lovers' Friend.

It is the story of how Edwin Booth, In the dead of night,', burned hi brother1 paper and costumes.

After narrating how Edwin Booth came into the possession of his brother' effect after the asssatlnatlon of Lincoln, Mr. Skinner goes on to report what Davidson told him. "It happerd early In 'TS. The day had been ona of storm and drifting snow, one of those belated day In New York when winter forgets to become spring. Mr. Booth had a snug suite of apartments high up over the stage, in which most of his time was spnt between his hours ef business and acting In the theater.

Then I shook him gently by the shoulder and told him Ihe time. A I expected, he aat up daaedly and reached about for something to throw at me; but It was only for a moment that bis wits wandered.

Even two old men of to suffered no uneasiness from a liberal supply of clams, corn,' chicken and lobster. i '.i "Tha only caaa I'v had in eight morrtha," say Pr.
