Michael Rolf Englishman" is a love
story by Mary L. Rendered. The heroine
is young lady who, as a sort of expert
ment, goes into the family of a small shop
keeper as goyerness and companion. The
scene is laid mainly in a market town of the
west of England, and the underlying idea is
the developme mt Of the girls character when
thrown with people of station other than
that to which she has been born. 1t may
be rather hard for an American reader to
get the herone's point Of view at once for
the caste feeling, rs it exists in England,
is slightly accentuated TO bring out the
artistic value Of the situation, The authors
style somewhat resembles that Of Jane
Austen. and while there Is nothing espe-
cially exciting in the story, it is wei told,
and the character drawing is extremely

Readers Of current fiction may have no.
ficed at intervals in the magazines some
vivid powerful. and original short stories
of French Canada. mainly in dialect. the
author, William McLennan, has done per-
haps the cleverest work in this line that
has been done at all-and the field is rich
one. Mary Hartwell Catherwood has dealt
with the same people, but most OF her sto-
ries are historical romances, having as a
basis some incident of colonial times. Mr.
/ McLennan describes the habitant and the
coureur des bois as they are today. His
stories are now gathered into a book under
the title In Old France and New" The
| seventeen sketches are of two types, about
/ half being tales of the French Revolution,
( the others pictures of the French Canadian
life Of today. Most readers viii prefer the
/ latter as being more unusual and striking
Certainly nothing better In the dialect

! and La Cabane." Perhaps the strongest
/ in certain weird and blood-chilling quail
/ ity is pitt Barouette," a grim story OF
! Indian cannibalism. 1t makes the flesh

Minor Fiction.

Deficient Saints" by Marshall Saun-
ders. author Of Rose a Charlutte.' scarce
~ bears comparison with the authors pre-
vious work, though it is a good story. 1t
deals with the fortunes Of an old French
family, near the coast of Maine. The ad-
vance notices say that next in Importance
to the religious element is the sentiment Of
passionate loyalty of these sons and daugh
ters Of Maine for their native State" but
il is hard to see where this sentiment is
at all prominent in the book. To be sure,
that somewhat remarkable character Miss
Jane Gastonguay, expresses a dislike for
life in Paris, and asserts that when she
dies she wishes to be at home among the
people she has always known, but that is
rather a personal feeling than anything
else. The Puritan element Is much more
obvious though the real interest of the
story lies in the plot and some OF the char
acteTs, and not in any metaphysical or
psychological problems. (Boston: L. c.

Doubleday IS the story of a boys life

John Worth. is a frontier youngster, and
passes through several exciting experien-
ces, including Indian fighting mining,
sheep herding, cattle ranching, and other
businesses, productive of thrilling Incl

true, having been told to him by the young
man who was the original of the hero. 1t
is cleverly written and illustrated, and
likely to delight the heart of any boy.

The Silver Springs Hard Road

Since legislative act has ena-
bled Ocala to Use money outside
the corporate limits, passed to a. :
sist the city to build the Ocala
and Silver Springs hard road, it
would appear from any discus
sion of the matter, privately or
in public, that the necessity for
this improvement had ceased.
Why this lethargy? Surely the
necessity Is even greater now
than it was six or eight months
ago, and the Importance of the
enterprise expands as the posi-
billties of it's usefulness are con-
sidered In the upbullding OF
Ocala and it's usefulness to Ma
rion county.
Now, that the city has the .le-
gal right to use it's money on this
highway, we respectfully call on
the council to appoint a commit
tee to confer with the county
commissioners and see if the ball
cannot be set in motion. No bet
ter time than the present; no
greater need for it's existence
and utility than now. Let every
Ocala merchant appoint himself
a committee of one to speak to
his councilman. Let a special
meeting of the council appoint a
committee to meet the county
commissioners and proceed to
business next Monday.
What a vista of possibilities it
will open for Ocala in her devel-
opment. A hard road to Silver
Springs, on which an automobile
can draw a car load of merchan-
disc at a cost of feeding two
horses; a line of boats on the
Ocklawaha to bring freight from
Jacksonville at a rate that will
once more make Ocala a jobbing
and distributing point. Surely
this should be an lnducement to
every interested Ocalan to aid In
pushing this matter to a conclu-
sion.
