This record of Lieutenant Schwatka's

til progress by sledges, the intense cold expert

the intrepid men who gave their lives for the pro-

Memoirs are always interesting as CIV
ing the result of the opinions and thoughts of
actual participants in stirring events and in this
instance the presentation of the journal and letters
of the eminent man who was Minister, Ambas-
sador, Councillor OF State, and member Of the In
sttute of France between the years l7SS and 1915
adds new light to the stirring incidents of that
epoch. In the work of editing the papers Of his
father -in-law General Fleischmann has carried
to his labors the respect and affection which he
had for his distinguished relative aud yet he has
not injected matter which was of interest 10 the
family only, and no one can carefully peruse the
book without feeling sentiments Of esteem and re.
gard for the great statesman rs n good man and
one who sincerely loyed his country and mankind.

THE BOYS MABINoGIoN by SIDNEY LASfER
New York: Charles scrbners Sons Washing
ton: Robert Beall.
The previous works of Mr. Lanier, en-
titled "The Boys Froissart' and "The Boys King
Arthur" have been remarkably successful, and
the demand which these books have shown In
duced him to edit upon similar plan the pres
ent volume, which contains the earliest Welsh
tales of King Arthur, I'm the famous Red Book of
Hergest, the manuscript of which was written in
the fourteenth century. These stories have won
derful fascination even moro vigorous than those
of the ar-iamed Arabian Nights tales, for they
portray q more noble and manly type of heroes.
They all centre about the court OF King Arthur,
and present views of domestic life going on III King
Arthur's palace as well as the wild adventures OF
his warriors 1t Is a book which will be read with
eager interest by every boy. II will make most
appropriate holiday gilt.
