self, and develops weird inauguration
 His brief school career terminates il
 triumphant rebellion. Withal, he is {
 manly, wholesome. clean-minded, brav'
 and altogether lovable fellow.
 The New York Tribune says of tht book: But, while the development O.
 Tristram Gavney's character owes
 much to certain events reported in the
 story, we put the book down at the end scarcely remembering those events
 all that we recall Is that Tristram has
 proved himself to be a man WortE
 Knowing, companion in whose society
 every hour has been interesting, anc
 whose individuality it would be diff
 cult to forget. The author is at some
 pains to destroy our liking for the hero
 by using In the narrative a good deal
 of the preciosity of style which disfig-
 ured "An Englishwoman's Love Let
 ters.' Yet even the intrusion at inter-
 vals of literary" atmosphere fails to
 rob young Gavney of his actuality. He
 is young In years even at the day of his
 death, but from the very beginning he
 is assiduous in accommodating exper-
 ence, and we see him In many different
 lights, often foolish, often headstrong, but always himself and always vable.
 The spirit of nature is in him, and, in- dividualized as he is, there remains
 many touch in his portrait that is in
 the widest sense human"
 The price of the book is Sl.50; for sale by T. H. Pease S Son.
 Of "A Modern Antaeus" the Brooklyn
 Eagle says in its review of the book
 Every one who enjoyed the Love Let ters ought most certainly, to read "A Modern Antaeus;' the same airy vivac- ity, the same classical esthetlcism, the | same unnameable charm of an exotic and sensitive genius, sparkle on every page and lift somewhat commonplace and sordid story into an empyrean of their own. There are many passages of great beauty and nobility and the va rious characters are drawn with a fla { cile and vivacious touch. It would be gratifying symptom of public taste if a book of so much delicacy should be popular on it's merits"

North gladly joins the little family party, which Is increased at Gibraltar by the arrival of Vernon Blake, the son of wealthy New York shipping mer- chant, who is in love with Doris. In their rambles through Spain, Morocco, Italy, Egypt and Palestine, the strands of double romance are interwoven with the charm and beauty of life in the older civilizations, and in bright, charmingly simple way the reader is carried with the little party into the highways and byways of the continent The book contains delightful pen-pic lures of famous places, given with light, easy touch, yet with the vividness of the best artist. Gibraltar the little party termed the greatest bluff in all creation, though they were fascinated by the magnitlcence of the panorama spread out before their eyes. The Al hambra, the beauties of Florence, street scenes and life in Cairo, glimpse of the oldest university in the world, a bath in the Dead Sea, survey of the great ten million dollar dam at Assou an; the beautiful Philae an island less than city block In size, epitomizing the history of Egypt, which is to be | submerged by the vandalism of the pro- | gress of civilization; the greatest archi- lecluIdi Woiiuel Ol iue Wcllu III tit iui'- dred- gated Thebes; the day in the | beautiful blue grotto of Capra-are | part of the hundred golden memories in | the retrospect of the travellers that will ! long live in the minds of the readers who follow with intense interest the story of Doris to the last pages, which reveal her destiny. Nearly two hun dred beautiful pictures make vivid the text and combine to make this book one of the most coplously illustrated novels ever presented to the public.
