THE PANSY

for May is q seasoneble number. Two not
able articles are about New York" and
the English literature paper-John Mil
ten. These are full of cleverly described
incidents, and will stimulate the taste for a
broader study along these same lines of
thought The stories are bright, as the
Pdnsy stories always are, the poems good,
and the articles throughout such as will
attract attention. WAY Stations" by
Pansy, and Little Paul; and the t'risble
School, by Margaret Sidney, both more
than interesting stories, this month develop
fresh interest, and awaken new desire 10

THE QUESTION OF SILVER. By Louis r. Enrich
New York: G. p. Putnam's Sons.
! The Putnams have brought out in their
"Questions of the Day" series two papers
by Mr.. Louis r. Enrich, of Colorado
Springs, both of which were published last
winter in Colorado, where they were Sc
verely criticised. 1t is hard to find in the
west, and much more SO in a silver-produc-
ing state or territory, an intelligent man
who is not in favor of the free and I'M
limited coinage of silver and as the au-
thor is such man, his book naturally at
tracts degree of attention it would not
otherwise gain. Mr.. Enrich is q bi-metal-
ist, up to a certain point. That is to say, he
1avors the coinage of American silver ''un-
til the limit of gold premium is reached.
| When gold goes to premium L want
silver coinage to stop. The secretary OF
the treasury should be clothed with power
to stop it,n until the equilibrium has been
restored. He thinks it would be disastrous
for the United States 10 undertake alone
the full RECOMMENDATION of silver, the as-
sumption. being that the world would bring
its silver here to be coined into dollars with
| l. fha 10
ing that our money would all be silver. The
author is manifestly in earnest, and pre-
sents his side of the case with degree of
clearness not often found in the arguments
of those opposed to free coinage. While
the little volumhe will not change the opin-
ion of any one who has made up his mind
on the subject as q result of study, the
book can be read with interest by even
pronounced silverites.

Grim, New York: Charles l.. Webster CO.
In this volume are collected eleven enter
tanning stories of life among the humble
: people of the "hill country" in the south.
Those people are distinctive race, and
with them Mr.. Grim seems remarkably
familiar. their peculiar characters, theii
modes of thinking, their language anC
their way of living having all been care
fully studied by him, and he has beer
happy in the presentation of the strange
, style of humanity. Perhaps he has over
t drawn the facts in some cases. for it doe
S I not seem probable that there are such peo
S pie as he found among the mountains o
Tennessee, Georgia and the Carolinas
However this may be, the stories are de
. cldedly picturesque and are told by mas
ter of the art.
