HE ARENA Book LIST.
In book publishing world the Aren;
Publishing Company has achieved
marked success. In the numbe
or handsome and artistic books ISSUED
from the Arena Press during the pas
year this comparatively new houSc
stands second to only one other pub
fishing house in the United States.
Having the powerful and universall
popular Arena magazine at their com
mand, they are able, not only to reacI
, the reading public, but also to brinI
> their publications to the attention o
. every book and newsdealer in the coun
try.
Occupying this position, the hous
had gathered around it a coterie O

brilliant and successful authors, all
interested in its growing fortunes.
The Arena Library Series, contain
ing 90 titles, mostly novels, sold both
in paper and cloth bindings, has been
almost universally commended by the
press for its artistic excellence of the
books no leSSthan for the literary abili-
ties of the different authors.
In at least two notable cases books
rejected by older publiShersfor fear of
adverse criticism, but accepted by the
Arena Publishing Company, have gone
through many editions, the sale of one
exceeding 5O,0OOcOpieS.
The SIDE-POCKET SERIES,
Being wholly unique in design and ex-
ecutiOn. has attracted general atten-
tiOn. One Of BOStOn's oldest book
sellers prOnOunceS "a Guide to Pal
miStry," one Of this series, "the hand
soonest book issued by any American
publisher during tee present year. "
As the name indicates, these little
books are of suitable size to be carried
in the side pocket. They are delight
full volumes to handle and are bound
to be very popular.
THE COPLEY SQUARE SERIES
Is series of books designed by this
enterprising house and bears the name
OF BOStOn's most beautiful public
square, COpley square. where the office
of the Arena Publishing Company il
located, is surrounded by some o.
BOStOnS most notable public build
ings. These are first the great Public
Library building, costing millions O
dollars, perhaps the most magnificent
library building in the world; then tn,
Boston Art Museum, another mOnu
ment to the liberality and taste OF
the art lovers Of the city and state
On another side of the square is tn,
great Trinity Church, so long presided
over by the lamented Bishop Brooks
For beauty and richness of design an
SplendOr of architecture, this churcI
Is perhaps the finest on the American
continent. Then there is the new
old South Church, with Its stately tow
er and imposing architectural beauty
Another striking feature of this not
ed squire, is the Pierce building il
which the Arena Publishing COmpan
is housed, built of solid stone, iron
foundation 30 turret, and one of tn
most imposing business blocks in al
Boston.
"Copley square, is rapidly becomin
a household word in consequence O
the enterprise and energy of this grea

B0STON'S GREAT REVIEW.
A Backward and Forward Glance. The Arena
Publishing Go.

Publishing Go.
The November Arena, which lies be-
fore US, is strong, able and invigorat-
ing. 1T closes the eighth volume of
this review, whose career has been so
remarkable, and whose influence has
grown to be a potent force in our
country. The superb courage, the
cathOlicity of spirit and the cOrdiality
with which ithaS received the advance
guard among the worlds thinkers
finds no parallel in the history Of
magazine literature. While employ
ing talent fully as learned and schOl-
arly as that represented in any other
great review, it has as a rule avoided
discussions of problems not vital in
character, while its influence has al
ways been thrown against class priv
ilegeS, entrenched injustice and out
grown ideas. A glance over the index
for the past year reveals a coterie of
contributors which itwOuld be difficult
to SurpaSS in any review published in
the EngliSh-Speaking tongue.
Among those who have written for
its pages during the past u months
are such leaders of thought and emf
nent scholars as Rev. ]. NJ. Savage,
Rabbi Solomon SCHNEIDER, Sir Edwin
Arnold, BihOp ]. L. Spalding, Rev.
Lyman Abbott, Prof. W. j. ROlfe,
Helen Campbell, Alfred Russell Wal

late Richard Proctor, Henry Irving

The announcements for next yea
are even more inviting, if possible
than those made before. Among thu
great features of the Arena for lS9
will be a series of six papers on tn,
Ascent of Life" by StinSon Jarvis
They will take up the evolution
theory where Darwin dropped it, anC
proceed in search for the soul of maj
in a strictly scientific manner. TIL,
editor of the Arena predicts tina
this work will create a pronounced
sensation, and will be a contribution
of great value to the modern critica
literature. Another brilliant featur
of the Arena for 1894 will be a Serie

On Thanksgiving day B. S. Bain's

once bantered B. S. for a rabbit hunt.
B. S. accepted. They tossed coppers
to see who should take the gun first.
j. NJ. won with the understanding
that whenever he missed he should
turn the gun over TO B. S. and vice
versa. The rabbits were plenty and
old "trusty" changed hands pretty
lively for a while. Then B. S. was
seen to make a circuit and come along
down the hedge shOOing and making
motions like an old woman driving
chickens. About this time we drove
along the road and heard something
,, like the following: "Haint that one
