BILE taste in furnishing their houses, and
can American Mother" convicts the
Americans of having bad manners. Plans
are given for A Quaint, Old Fashioned
House for $6600," and interior views of

DR.. H. W. Wiley, in most interesting
article on bread making at the Paris Elk
hibition in the November Forum, declares
that the process of bread-making is on
| the verge of a complete revolution. He
describes the Schweitzer process of mill
ing and bread making which was exhibit
ed at the Paris Exposition and shows that
the flour produced by that process is far
more nutritious than the flour produced
by the old methods. He says that the do
nestle baking of bread is to be deplored,
that bread making is as much of an art as
tailoring, and that we have as much right
to bread made by experts as we have to
coats and cloaks fashioned by tailors He
opines that the great evils of our time
and country are not intrigues, bribery
and trusts, but the frying pan, bicarbo-
nate OF soda, and pie.
The s'NeD Lippincott'' Magazine for No
vember is sterling good number of pc
riodical that is growing better each month
of it's new existence. The complete nov
ell feature has been maintained with new
er-failing interest," as witness Madame
Noel, by George H. Picard, in the pres
ent issue. This is a story of Longfel
lows Acadia, where the simple folk
live an idyllic life surrounded by the big
woods Mr.. Picard's creations are living
people full of such passions as move us
all, only here intensified by the remote
ness and the loneliness of the background.
This story is of the loves and hates of
four young people who compose two
houses-one priests, the other an Eng
lish clergyman's 1t is touching and love
ly by turns and sweet always. Not in
many days has story been written that
clings so to the memory. Apropos of the
difficulties in China is the supreme diff
Guilty of its language and written charac
ters These are illustrated and made
clearer for US in the November 'fNeao Ltp-
p5rac0tt' Magazine. Some amusing historic
facts shine forth from an analysis of the
kilograms.
t'THE SMART SET' For NOvEMBER.-Th |
novelette, which opens the November number
of the "Smart Set" bears the catchy title, "Miss
Milecete, whose work is already well known in
this country, and the story, bright and spark
ling from beginning to end, deals with English
life and character. The present number of the |
''Smart Set" certainly sustains the statement of
the publishers that it is magazine of clever |
ness" Many of the contributions to the No
vember number are not only clever but bril- |
liant. The list is long one Among the con-
tributors which are bound to attract attention
is sThe Errors of Society,"" by the Rev. Brad
din Hamilton, the well-known Newport clergy |
man, who writes fearlessly of the "errors" as
he sees them. The literary world will be in
terested in hitherto unpublished poem, "Don |
JUAN" by the late Richard Hovey. This re-
markable poem shows the brilliant versewriter
in an entirely new and unexpected light, the |
verses sparkling with wit and satire. The |
"Smart Set' for November is very interesting |
number.
