NEW BOOKS AND NEW EDITIONS.

Miss Mary White has compiled and the. scribners
have published book which ought to prove boon
to country parties and groups Of young people who
are kept indoors by the rain and are on the brink
of being bored. This book is called The Book OF a
Hundred Games and It Is not the production OF
folklorist The latter has been having Ills say about
games so frequently that the mere player OF games
has begun to doubt II any one would come forward
and be content to help him amuse himself Miss
White offers this help She gives explanations
Which are concise and clear. and her book should
prove an inexhaustble source Of Inspiration In no
one house is It likely that one hundred games VIII
ever be undertaken so the collection stands as one
TO which the host may go again and again without
feeling that he has reached the limit Of the antholo
gist.

Mr. Richard Harding Davis travels with his eyes
wide open II has often been charged against him
that ne did not zee. nevertheless everything that
is to be seen; but the author OF Three Gringos In
Venezuela and Central America (Harper Broth
ers) might easily retort that he saw everything
worth seeing In the region he visited. This Is
wide-awake and entertaining book. The substance
Of it gave pleasure TO many readers when presented
in the pages of "Harper's Magazine" and. In Its
present FORM what Mr.. Davis has to say is not only
worth reading. but worth putting on the shelf to be
consulted when wishes TO know something
about Venezuela Honduras or the Isthmus OF Pana-
ma These pages are well illustrated. and altogether
the volume bright intelligent record Of travel.

Mr.. Henry w. McVlckar has a of humor
and clever pen for the delineaton Of those comcal
figures which appear to his imagination in thinking
about The Evolution of Woman" (Harper & Broth
ers). Woman. according to Mr.. McVickar. has COMO
through some very uncomfortable phases. In
cient Rome she occasionally burned. In the
time of the Pharaohs the wife, rather the wives.
Of Rameses were sometimes treated to the lash.
Even in these modern days Mr. McVickar finds
woman undergoing some pretty painful experiences.
In Belgium she helps the dogs TO draw the milk
carts. and In America. II Mr.. McVickar is to be be-
lieved. she has a terrible time taking care OF the
children while her husband goes gayly to tho club.
But in these days. at any rate. she can go golfng.
she can ride the bicycle she can go out shooting.
and. somehow. her evolution would seem TO have
brought her to pretty pleasant places. Whether It
has or not. her history has given Mr. McVickar OPP
portunities for a great deal OF funmaking and In
this book Of pictures and rhymes he contrives to
raise q smile, when he humorousy depicts his
heroine suffering the indgnities OF antique and mo-
diaeval eras
