THE STORY OF A COUNTRY TOWN. By
" ' B. W. How. Harper Bro. Il.it,
A new illustrated edition of a story
which for years .has held its place as
one of the classics that faithfully
and imaginatively portray American ( na,ure hook

homeliness, but is never vulgar. It
does not flatter the west, nor paint
its rough and rude traits as heroic;
it perceives and states, and the re
are these descriptions, for the author
has lived in close proximity to birds
and animals, and shares their secrets.
The stories he tells are vivid and
fascinating, and many unusual photo
graphs add to the value of this unique

THE VENGEANCE
GAWNE. By C. A
' Clurc Co. S1.25.
This is a story of the southwest, in
the days of the big cattle ranges. It
goes back to the time when the gun
was the court of final appeal, when
men hated fiercely and loved with
passionate ardor. It tells how the law
came to a cow-town, dominated by
a cattle thief and rustler; how one
man, by sheer force of personality,
succeeded in awakening that in
stinctive desire for law and order
possessed individually and collective
ly by even crude communities.
BY THE WORLD FORGOT. By Cyrus
t -rownaena Brady. A. C. McClurg Co,
, 11.40. $, , .
A scion of a prominent New York
family, groom-to-be in a "marriage
of convenience," is shanghaied aboard
a sailing vessel by his business part
ner, who is in love with his pro
spective bride. The story of the un
fortunate victim's awful experiences
tmtil and after he reaches a lonely is
- land in the south seas, completely
cut off from the rest of the world, and
the finding there of his heart's desire
in a maiden of the forgotten island,
is very entertaining and exciting.
TATTLKNER'S FOLLY.
George H. Doran Co.
By Carolyn Well.
Il.lt.
This is a mystery tale of cumula
tive suspense. There is a picturesque
house, a spirit medium, a smart Long
Island set, a detective very unconven
tional in fiction, and the sweet of ro
mance at the denouement. The plot
revolves about the mystery of which,
if either, murdered the master of the
house known as "Faulkner's Folly,"
his wife or his artist's model. '
THE WAYFARERS AT THE ANGEL'S.
... By Sara War Baaaatt. George H. Doran
Co. tl.it.
A vine-covered little fishing shanty
on "The Capet" known as Cod, shel
ters the loneliness of three salt male
old maids. Then comes Ann, as old
fashioned as she is modern, "better'n
a trained nurse, she's a born one"
and the course or me changed. ; lhe
awakened Three Musketeers even buy
a washing machine. And with Ann
comes all uninvited, a little god never
before at lhe Angels though the
shadow of a roving, sailor made Cu
pid s task somewhat difficult. But even
this shadow could not forbid ' con
tinuing humor, pathos, romance and
patriotism, and ultimately a sweet
peace at Wilton village, which pre
ferred the; "church supper" to the
telephone.

HONEST ABE. Alonio Rothchlld. Hough
on Mifflin Co. u; , . ' .
' This book deals with the first part
of Lincoln's life, the period' in which
his honesty was the quality that fo
cused the attention of all with whom
be came in contact. The author has
studied a vast amount of material,
and has woven together a vivid and
living portrait of his subject, always
in this aspect of the typical honest
man." The result is at once an im
portant addition to Lincoln literature; :
and a most inspiring, narrative for
tread :rs of every age. v
