Under the Southern Cross.

Fighting Under the Southern Cross" Is
a story Of the Chilean-Peruvian War by
Claude H. Wetmore. The scenes are laid
on the west coast of South America dur
ing the Chilean-Peruvian war of 1879 Pri-
marily, the cause of this war was the
nitrate beds of Bolivia, which Chile had
for years been anxious to obtain. Having
an offensive and defensive alliance with
Bolivia, Peru was compelled to take up
arms against Chile, and as the struggle
was waged entirely on the sea, and as Bo-
livia was an inland state, the entire con-
f1ict was carried on by Peru single
handed.
Three American boys are introduced

learns the facts of the controversy be-
tween the two countries, which later cul-

Orators are less fortunate than poets
and artists; the poem lives as long as the

is forgotten with the speaker, and too
frequently the very subject Of an grafton

that follows. Speeches are almost always
of contemporary rather than permanent

The great orator lives in his personality
or his style. The magnetism of his pres

his great speeches are past; his very
themes are of decreasing interest. We
must build up that past again; must in
imagination become contemporary with
his audience and must live over his own
life with him.

Modern French Socialism.

1.-The French Revolution and Modern
French Socialism," by Jessica B. Peix-
otto, Phi. D., has just been published by
Thomas Y Crowell & Co., New York.
Just at this time, when the attention of
the whole civilized world is turned toward
the solution Of the socialistic problem
when the stern outgrowth of this doctrine
is menacing the heads of all governments
"a work analyzing the first fruits Of So
cialism is of distinct value. Such work
is this study, of the French Revolution and
its resultant creed, which during the past
century has left an impress upon civiliza-
tion by begetting socialism in present-day
France.
DR.. Peixotto's study Is on the broadest,
most dspassionate lines. 1t betrays the
investigation of a scholar who is seeking
to arrive at the truth. The work Is evil
IDENTIFY the result of painstaking research
back to the original sources. Beginning
with the principles of the French Revo-
luton and the growth Of the idea of
political liberty, the author locates the
various influences, internal and external
which converged to the final crisis. de
signed to establish what seemed a social
order more propitious than that which
had been conducted by the long-estab-
lished, but now discredited, authorities.
Their guiding principles were not deduc-
tions from the history of man, but from
reason
The purpose Of part is to show how
Frenchmen of the eighteenth century
came to be at odds with the creeds of ar
old social order and how this quarrel bred
a new set of theories winch came to be
counted fundamental truths; then the
general character of these new beliefs is
described. In part II the discussion passes
over to the next century, there to follow
another series of progressive changes re.
sulting in another body of principles lev.
eled against the accepted social order
The author endeavors to outline the i'm
mediate influences which have developed
French socialism into a specific doctrine
and to define that doctrine at the presen1
time. Finally comes summary and g
comparison of the social with the politica
theory. (Price 81 50.)

Then we shall have treasure-house from
which to draw in the days when work is

to his discourse, "The Summer Gather

we may build of beautiful thoughts. proof
against all adversity-bright fancies, sat-

take away from us-houses built without
hands for our souls to live in!''

Willingly offended her by speaking light

from the war in South Africa and is prac-

people who barely speak to each other on
account Of their recent quarrel, the

In the morning the woman finds him ly-
ing under the trees, in the rain and en-

eight days she nurses him and hnaliy

This then, is the beginning of a pretty
love story. Mr.. Mitchell holds the out
ward avowal Of their mutual affection Tor
many pages of excellent reading. The au-
thor certainly understands how to make
the most of a pretty love story and his
powers Of invention give just the right
touch to keep one wondering how the
whole affair will turn out.
While II is with pleasure tnat the Ieaucr
finds the man is really loved by this one
woman Of his choice, still 1t is matter
for regret that the suspense Is not Kept
up until nearer the emo OF the story.
After you know that Cupid has won the
game the main interest is gone-for up to
this time the love affair has been all IN all.
Now, you must sit down and try to inter
est yourself in how they are to get back
to the world and also In the second story
the mystery of the former occupant OF
their house, all of which occupies nearly
half Of the book. This second story is
very pretty one and told in Mr.. Mitchell s
good style, is quite acceptable. but 1t
makes an ending too long distant from the
strong climax. published by The Life

Belgian Hare Manual.

Laird & Lee, the Chicago publishers,
have just issued "The Standard Belgian
Hare Manual" by DR.. George F. Hall,
who is a member of the National Asso-
citation of Belgian Hare Fanciers and an
authority on this new industry. The
book contains 225 pages, with IS illustra-
tions. The work is compiled and edited
from the worlds best authorities, and
embraces all that beginners and fanciers
need to know about the selection, mating,
breeding, feeding, housing, selling and
general management of i this newly
crowned king of the rabbit race. The
rise of the Belgian hare is an interesting
study. The little animal is not only a
charming pet, but commercially profita-
bic. From very small start hundreds Of
thrifty boys and girls. and especially wo-
men, have made snug sums. Numerous
authentic instances of big profit are de-
tailed in this volume. Many have con-
sidered the hare business as a mere fad,
which would soon run it's course; others
have prophesied that their wonderful fe-
cundity would soon result in their over
running the land as a pest. But DIR.
Hall takes higher view, and conscien-
tiously classifies the raising and market
ing of hares as a pleasant, profitable and
honorable industry. Paper, cover in col

standeth God within the shadow.


"Standeth God Within the Shadow by
David Starr Jordan. Is plea for the re-
lieion of science-the abiding faith In
controlling force so vast that no problem,
great or small, can be reckoned with
out 1t.
Men are slow to recognize that nature
has her own laws and purposes. She Is
not the executor Of human justice. The
rain falls on the just and the unjust"
When the tower of Sloan falls men are
prone to seek for the cause of 1t not in
its rotten foundation but in the wicked
ness of those who happened to be under
it. The ideas which Christ once sharply
rebuked have been the source Of many
superstitions. Men in all ages have been
as 'the wicked generation that seeketh
for a sign when no sign shall be given
them" God always deals with US in
kind. OF the same nature as the action
is It's reward or its penalty.
This religion Of science, then, Is retri-
butive, and is the just working out Of the
immutable laws of nature set and estab-
lished by the Creator from the beginning
A varying law Of nature would be the de-
struction Of the universe.
1t Is in this vein that the present book
let presents its views-broad, sane and
invigorating. The essay is~couched in
spirit so reverent that II cannot imagine
God save as infinitely above the fiuctua-
tions often ascribed to him by human in
tellects. published by Thomas Y Crow
