L ne century Tor OCTOBER covers an
unusual range of topics and appeals to
a variety of tastes, and yet the topics
are SO well chosen that the reader will
find each article attractive. The lead
ing paper, a descriptive and anecdotal
discussion of ''The Practice of the Law
in New York" is by Judge Henry E.
Rowland, and is accompanied by por-
traits of the noted lawyers and judges
of the state. Within the narrow COM
pass of a magazine article Judge How
land has given a comprehensive and
entertaining view of the legal profess
sion in the business center of the New
World. A bright new world is treated of
in the interesting account of THE Men
of New Japan'-the creators of the
new power that has already made it
self determining factor in Eastern
politics. The new woman is depicted
in the role of parliamentarian by Hell
en- Churchill Candee, whose study OF
Madam President and Her Constitu,
ents" is not only excellent as a char
acter study and examination of social
types, but has much solid statistical
information and contains helpful sug'
gestions toward making the womans
club truly valuable element in the
community. The stories of the mum,
Der include the richly Illustrated "An
Anglican Monk" by Torquil MacDon-

the excitement and perils attendant
upon the life of the Locomotive En-
gineer." and especially those who run
the limited expresses at a cost of ner-
vous energy little appreciated by the
travelling public. Two other railroad
ing articles follow--one the story of
"A Runaway Locomotive" down a
mountain side, and the other a striking
little bit of verse by William Hurd
Hillyer, entitled. THE Night Express. 4"
An especially bright story with the
taking title, tom, Jr., Tomboy," writ
ten by Izola L. Forester, will be best
appreciated by the older readers, of
whom st. Nicholas has so many. It Is
a charming piece of sentiment, bring

life of the Western plains. There are,
