Macaulay's ''Lavs" are instinct with

imaginative charm of. romance. In
felicity of touch its author is unap-

VICAR OF WAKEFIELD.
By Oliver Goldsmith. This beautifully ILLUS
trated edition of famous English classic will
increase its attractions for those who recognize
the claim 1t has as essentially "home book"
for the whole reading world. Goldsmith has
shed over the world the tenderest light of his
genius, and the pastoral scenes in are un-
rivalled, we had almost said unapproached, by
any other writer of fiction. AS Sir Walter
Scott said of it, eve read Vicar of Wakefield in
youth and in age, and return to it again and
again, aid bless the memory of an author who
contrives so well to reconcile US to human ma
ture." The book, throughout its fascinating
pages, exhibits all the characteristic traits of
" Poor Poll"-a genial fancy, and the most di

all the felicity of expression, as well the SUBJ
tlety of thought and insight, which are the |
special charm of the author of 1.-THE Scarlet Let |
ter" Each breathes its own air of contemlda-
ton, and its effects is heightened 5y the ieli
cities of style no less than by the imaginative
genius ofthe author.

By Bernardo De saint Pierre. This Idylic |
story by classic French writer OF the whole<-
some romantic school, is an immortal book,
and has won place Tor itself in the homes of
almost every people who possess literature
and can appreciate the work of genius. 1t may
with some literary propriesy, be termed an
localized Robinson Crusoe, and it has all the
fascination of that renowned work Its book
that is sure to go down the centuries, charming
as well as edifying generations vet unborn.
