Nj RurueI has Maid small attsntion IN
| literary forms but in a C isiointed though
wholly interesting fashion tells the story.
She is at her best when describing Vir-
ginia scenes and customs and relating
anecdotes OF Virginians, white and black.
The chapter OF comparison with other peo-
pie could well have been omitted. AS was
to be expected in such a book the negro
appears frequently upon its pages but 1t
is the old-time negro not that individual
as the present generation knows him.
Missourians may find frequent refer
ence to people and places familiar. Rev.

Tian pastor at ~Boonville, is given compli-
ment.
Not the least valuable feature are the
illustrations OF which there are sixteen
elegant, tull-page. These are by Nc
C%ullough and Turcas, artists who evil

they have pictured. The book 10 exquis-
itely bound in colored buokram with
