THE ABBE CoNsTANTIN.-While Lud-
ovic Haleyy is perhaps best known as
the librettist of the operas La Belle
Helene" "Barbe Bleu" and LA Grande
Duchesse" he is a most successful story
writer. In this little volume which the
publishers have gotten out in the most
dainty style he tells a story Of French LIE
which is pure in tone and never flags IN
in terest, though he modestly remarks 10
the opening chapter: "Our poor country
is in many respects cruelty calumniate by
certain novelists who draw exaggerated
and distorted pictures OF II. 1t is true the
history of good people is often monotoDous
or painful. This story Is proof of it."
The heroine of the story Is an American
girl. who is as bright and sensible and
beautiful as she is rich. She falls in love
with and finally marries Jean ReyDaud,
Young lieutenant OF artillery in the French
army. The character OF the Able Con-
stantin is evidently drawn from life. He
act is directed toward amellorating the
condition of his fellow-men. No one can
read the story without falling in love with
the old man. The book is prOfusely and
M ost tastefully illustrated by Mime. Made

FACTORS IN AMERICAN CIVILIZATION
These studies in applied sociology" were
originally delivered in the form of popular
lectures before the Brooklyn Ethical Asso-
citation. The subjects treated of are quite
varied in character. and while no two are
treated from exactly the same standpoint
the dominant idea of the series is we'll
preserved throughout. The prime object
of these lectures, as stated In the preface,
has been to apply sound scientific and
evolutionary principles TO sociological
problems. A careful consideration of this
work Is commended to students of political
and economic science. New York: d.

THIS DEADLY BLoT.-Those who re-
member William Langford as the author
of that clever novel. "Tifana's Revenge"
will not be disappointed in this latest
story from his pen. 1t is well-written
tale of English life. and though far re-
moved from the sensational school of liter
ature, possesses sufficient interest to main-
tain the attention of the reader from
beginning to end. 1t is religious in senti-
ment, and the plot is somewhat conven-
tional. but the authors descriptive powers
tide him over what places may seem weak
to the critical reader. Published by Rem
iDgton Co., London and Sydney.
