From the publishing house of Messrs.
L. G. Page & Company, Boston, comes a
novel by William Somerset Vaughan,
thoroughly illustrated by Mr.. Gilbert
Saint, and is a romance of Medieval Ita-
ly, the scene being laid in the 18th Cen
tury. The hero is young leader of Free
Companions and the story, full of in
trigue and feuds, Is drawn with free
hand. These are supposed to be the
memoirs of Filippo Brandohini, written
by one of his descendants, or rather pre-
pared from manuscripts handed down
from one generation to another. Filippo
became Beato Guiliano, brother of the,
Order of st. Francis of Assist, and the
latter part of his life was given to good
works, to fasting and prayer. But as his
biographer thinks all these pieties would
make but dull tale, he has been con-
strained to leave them untold, and re-
count instead the sins of his ancestor, and
there seems to be abundant material.
The Day Breaketh, by Fanny Alri ricks
Shugert, is tale of Jerusalem and Rome
in the days of Christ This is published
by. Henry Altemus, Philadelphia. The
authors preface gives an excellent idea
of the contents of her book, and is as fol-
lows:
"The aim have had is to weave
story of the fearless devotion of the early
Christians, and to present to the young
OF: today, in entertaining form a sketch OF
the enduring zeal which the Apostles dis
played in obeying the commands OF the
MASTER 1t cove .s the most trying time
of the great transition from Paganism
to Christianity-tn period commencing
with the stoning of Stephen and ending
with the death of John, the last disciple
Should the effort accomplish its purpose,
I shall feel content" And indeed she
well may be content were this to happen;
but it would seem to the observer that
the day of the thoughtful and pious
young person is far in the past, and that
stories adapted from the Bible, alas! ap-
peal not to the youth of the present era.
Even as an historical study the Bible is
quite out of date, and the child who
knows his Scriptures as we'll as his
Shakespeare is not to be found in this
degenerate age. And yet Miss Shugert's
work is very creditably done, and should
command reading. portland: Loring,

The August Atlantic is chiefly fiction
number and contains notable group of
short stories. Morgan Robertson writes
of life on the ocean wave, the sort of
thing for which he is famous. This time
it is Where Angels Fear to Tread, and
is tale of hardship and suffering, but
true to life.
A sailor story is the Commodore, by
Justin Ingersoll, and it has plenty of ro-
nance and sentiment as well as incident
and adventure
.sDriftwood, by M. P. Whitmarsh, is
likewise about the sea, and a pair of
ocean castaways, while The Tinklin
Simlins, by Mary Earle Tracy, is in dis
tinct contrast, being rural and idyllic
sketch, with touches of humor, pathos
and tragedy. and all the characteristics
of country life.
Mrs. Ritchie's story is all about the
Chinese and is very entertaining; and
Mr.. Parker's Battle of the Strong sus-
tains the previous reputation of its au-
JnOr, anu U11U IN u1lO alS4coU pIatoOs
e And this delightful number of our ia
yorite New England magazine also con-
tains much more valuable and important
matter. Mr.. Seth Low has an extremely
interesting article upon The Trend Of the
Century, in which he speaks of the grand
advances made in our religious, scientific,
political, educational, social and CONNER
cial status He writes: "To sum up, l
should say that the trend of the century
has been to great increase in knowledge,
which has been found to be, as Of old, the
knowledge of good and evil; that this
knowledge has become more and more the
property of all men rather than of few;
that. as a result, the very increase OF op-
portunty has led to the magnifying OF
the problems with which humanity is
Obliged to deal; and that we find our
sleevs at the end Of the century face to
face with the problems Of worldwide i'm
portance and utmost difficulty, and with
no new means of coping with them other
than the patient education of tho masses
of men,"
