greatnesses. His people are all good,
healthy fiesh-and- blood folks, the kind
we live among and don't know; the
kind we think we are near to, and who,
nevertheless, manage to keep just out

Our author has happily flash-lighted
them in their most unconscious moods
of trial and triumph, and, in simple,
plant, unpretentious style, faithfully
portrayed them.
A very good, wholesome lot they are

we are re-introduced in quiet informal

and take stronger possession of their

belief absorbs unerringly what is best

It is characteristic of Father Daley
that his first volume of book work
should be designed TO lie near the
hearts of the little ones. And, it is en-
tirely safe to predict, that the delight
Iful little chain-gang, to whom this
chain of storiettes is dedicated with
such tender facetiousness, will link a
long line of recruits among the youth
full readers of this genial leaders, book,
"A CassOck of the Pines"
To those familiar with the authors
broad culture, diffusive and accurate
reading his kind and sympathetic OBJ
servation while travelling at home and
abroad, this first work must appeal as
an avant-gout of more ambitious and
substantial things to come. Here
spread before us on the halfshell are
deftly and tastefully served a good doz-
en- of fresh, wholesome and appetizing
short tales. There is substance and
succulency in every one. Better still,
after we have thoroughly relished our
oysters, we find snugly concealed in
every shell an unobstrusive moral of
lustrous pearl The author knows his
people young and old, and he brings
to light in an apparently unstudied way

A YEAR IN A YAWL.
BY Russell Doubleday.
Doubleday, Page & Coz (
e4&44AAaAA@e44A4AAA4@AAsl

This little book will appeal particu-
larly to youthful readers and those who
love stories of travel and adventure.
This is the story of a remarkable
trip made by four boys in 30-foot
yawl of their own construction.
Starting from Lake Michigan, these
adventurous young men sailed by way
of canal and rivers to the mouth of
the Mississippi. From thence they
coasted along the Gulf shore, rounded
the end Of Florida and made their way
up the Atlantic coast to Norfolk, Phil
adelphia and New York (via the Rari-
tan CanaD. Continuing up the Hud-
son and through the Erie Canal and
the lakes, they finally reached home
after a 70OO-mile journey.
The story of this unique trip is
the many exciting adventures along
the way makes the most interesting
and healthy reading possible.
The story of this unique ffitrip is
wonderfully interesting, yet the book
is one that in no sense is improper or
dangerous to put in the hands of youth
full readers. It is clean and realistic.
1t represents the very best class of
boys literature.

FARM RHYMES.
By James Whitcomb Riley.
(The Bowen Merrill
COmpany.)
saAsAaaAsAAAAAaaaeeeeAAAeAe.@e.ss

This is a beautiful edition from a
most attractive lot of verses. Most
of the poems are brief and they give
a wide scope for illustrations. Riley's
farm verses are we'll known through
the length and breadth of the English
speaking world.
None of us is completely out of
touch with the farm and the sentiment
that he expresses so vividly in the life
of the people devoted to the farm. 1t
means encouragement and it means in
some cases better and purer ideals to
those who have read and absorbed the
sentiments of these poems.
The poems have been copyrighted
from 1883 to 1901, so they form a col
lection from practically the entire out
put of Riley's poetical genius on this
subject.
1t makes a pretty and appropriate
gift book for those who love nature.

THE QUEST FOR THE EN-
PRESS.
By Albert J. Klinek.
(The Abbey Press.)

In this story from the pen of Albert
J. Klinck, a resident of Buffalo, n. Y,
the life of a medical student is por-
trayed, his first case forming a delight
full incident in the story. The drinking
habit among young men is briefly but
forcibly dealt with. The great opin-
ions the older heads of the medical
profession have of themselves is
touched upon. An important opera
tion brings the hero into fame he and
two of his classmates take their hon
eymoon trip together, and the ending
is a happy one, even though 1t is not
exactly what was expected.
The book has a rare interest, the
identity of the Empress" not being
revealed until at the very end. There
is much conversation which is bright
and original There is no padding"
and the story may be easily read at a
sitting.
