This edition of Alice in Wonderland
is notable for many reasons. The de-
mand for this book Will last probably
as long as children continue to- read it.
1t is one of the most charming of all
books for and about children. 1t is the
masterpiece of a great writer.
This particular edition is notable
from illustrations by Peter Newell,
who, above all others, is fitted to il
lustrate a work of this kind and il
distractions by E. S. Martin.
IF any apology is needed for Of
fering to the world a set of new il
lustrations to Alice in Wonderland, it
must be found in the special fitness of
Peter Newell to- make drawings for
that book. Alice is frankly not quite
of this world, and so are Mr.. Newells
drawings. 1t must have been destined
from the beginning that Mr.. Newell
should illustrate Alice, and, if the COM
bination has Jagged these many years,
it was only on account of discrepan-
cies of age which it took time to over
come. It is matter for general felici-
tation that so suitable a union has
been accomplished at last. Even the
delay has been advantageous, for it has
given us the Tenniel pictures, which
are identified beyond fear Of separa-
ton with Alice and her familiars.
"One of the beauties of Alice is that
it has no moral. 1t is absolutely in
nocent, and it's author was exceedingly
solicitous that it, and all his other
books, should do no manner of harm
to any readers mind. But it is one of
the NEST irresponsible books ever writ
ten The unexpected usually happens
in it, and no excuse is offered for any
occurrence merely because it is con-
trary to human experience. Rules are
the plague of childhood, and in Alice
all rules go for nothing. That may be
the reason why children universally
delight in it. And another reason is
that it exercises the imagination and
the sense of humor of childhood. They
are both regions of mystery to most
grown-ups.
Strangely soon childhood becomes an
unknown country to us, and we look
back to it. and wonder about its laws
and customs. Children make exceeding
ly merry over jokes that seem to us
too simple to be funny; they delight
in improbabilities that seem to us too
crude to be entertaining. That is be-
cause we have left childhood behind.

ANGEL.
By Mrs. B. NJ. Croker.
Dodd, Mead & Coz

The sub-head of this novel is "A
Sketch in India Ink" and it suggests
the subject of the story.
Angel Gascoyne, the heroine OF the
story. was born and spent the first nine
wears in India. She is loved by her
mother and detested by her stepfather.
At her mothers death, her fathers
cousin, Philip Gascoyne, a Royal En-
gineer, takes charge of the child and
sends her to school in England where
she develops into a beautiful and
charming girl. To escape an unwelcome
marriage which her grandmother tries
to bring about, she sells her mothers
diamonds and goes to her guardian in
India, only to find that she has Of
Tended Mother Grundy, as her guardian
turns out to be very attractive young
man instead of the elderly person that
she supposed.
The guardian very properly falls in
love with the girl and marries her.
The cold-hearted young person who
had Tilted Philip in his youth some
what complexities the plot, but the
denouement is perfectly satisfactory to
the most fastidious.
The book has an Indian atmosphere,
Of course, and there is a mixture Of ro-
mantle adventure and practical COM
nonsense about the book. There are
touches Of the dramatic in some Of the
chapters. The dialogue is bright and
interesting and American readers
should be attracted by the book.

zeal and trained intelligence of Mr..
Walter RoWlands, who is himself a
lifelong collector, as well as the master
of a fascinating style. These repro
auctions of celebrated paintings, in the
most thorough going sense, illustrate
as we'll as beautify the text.
Orators are less fortunate than poets
and artists; the poem lives as long as
the language; even the canvas and
marble defy the ravages of time; but
the voice is forgotten with the speak
er, and too frequently the very sub
ject of an Grafton becomes unintelli
gible to the generation that follows.
Speeches are almost always of contem-
porary rather than permanent interest.
The great orator lives in his person
ality or his style. The magnetism Of
his presence is gone; the occasions that
called out his great speeches are past;
his very themes are of decreasing in
terest. We must build up that past
again. must in imagination become
contemporary with his audience, and
must live over his own life with him.
This grateful service Mr.. Rowlands
has helped us to accomplish, and he
has performed his task with singular
skill and charm. Among the Great
Masters of Oratory" will interest the
student of history; will stir the pulses
of the patriotic and will vitalize and
focus a thousand and one detached and
confusing facts. 1t is, Furthermore,
one of the handsomest books in respect
to letter-press and binding which have
been issued for many years, and the
publishers confidently look for a sale
which will equal that of it's successful
predecessors in the series, Among the
Great Masters of Literature" and

THE PRICE OF A WIFE. I
BY John Strange Winter.
q. B. Lippincott Coz I

1.-THE Price of a Wife" is book of
unusual merit and charm. The central
figure of the story is a trained nurse,
Marion Brandon. She is the daughter
of a clergyman and a girl of beauty
and refinement. She marries Lawrence
Murgatroydt, a young English officer,
the son of a very wealthy man. The
marriage was secret because John
Murgatroydt, the Father, who was a
stubborn man, had deoreed that Law
renee should marry rich woman.
The pair struggle along on scanty
income until the father falls i'll. The
presence of an epidemic makes it
necessary to call on the young wife
to act as nurse. She appears as Nurse
Marion again in her professional ca
pacity. The old man at first dislikes
her intensely, but learns later to APP
preciate her.
The nurse returns one day from
ride to her patient to find her husband
tampering with the safe, in which was
kept the will which gave him the proc
erty on the condition that he should
marry a woman worth 100000 or moSe
in two years after the testator's death.
The man did not speak, but brushed
by her and left the house. To her
horror she found the old man already
dead and she abruptly left her husband
and disappeared believing him guilty
of attempting to destroy the will. But
Lawrence finally discovers the facts.
1t was his brother Godfrey who at
tempted to rob the safe and the story
finally ends happily in spite of the will,
as the godfather of Lawrence sees to
it that the young wife is given enough
money to keep him the heir of the
property.
The story is told simply and in a
straightforward manner. The charac-
ter of Marion is so rich and true, and
it is so well drawn, that the merit of
the book cannot be too highly praised.
There is just a touch of humor in the
book and a good deal of suffering and
pathos and much genuine happiness.
The character of the old man is a study
in itself He is unreasonable, quick
tempered, but lovable and generous.
incidentally the book shows the value
of training for the nurses occupation.
The contrast between the two broth
ers in the story is one of the remark
able things about it. One admires also
the characters of the doctor and law
yer who are introduced for profession
al purposes in the book.

: MARGOT. I
BY Millicent E. Mann. I
= "a. C. McClurg & Coz (
o

This book is for children. It is il
Illustrated by Troy and Margaret Kin
ney. 1t is story of colonial days and
there are adventures in New Amster-
dam and the Indians figure in the
story.
Margot Dantier, the heroine of the
story, is a beautiful little French maid
en-. The story gives a pretty picture
of the new world in those early days.
Although this is Mrs Mann's first ju-
venile book. it is easily apparent that
she understands the art of telling a
story in a way to interest young peo-
pie. In "Margot" she has aimed to
give them a book that will correspond
with the historical romances their
elders are reading so frequently at the
present time.
Margot's father. who is shoemaker
to the Court of France in the reign of
Louis XIV, is a Huguenot; and when
the times of persecution come, little
Margot is hurried out of France. She
escapes to America, and has many
strange adventures in the wilderness.
In the end her courage and sweet low
able disposition find the reward of hap
piness.
The illustrations by Troy and Mar
garet Kinney are unusually charming.

No expense was spared in making
every feature worthy of its subject:
and in the procuring of illustrations
which will entitle the work to the low
ing consideration of the bibliophile and
the critic. Many photographs have been
obtained directly from the original
paintings. Special attention has been
paid to the map, which is probably
more accurate and elaborate than any
other map Of the Netherlands pre-
viously printed in this country. These
features, together with the excellence
of typography and richness of bindings,
bespeak the high grade of the mechan-
ical makeup.
A scholarly and discerning introduce
ton was written by Professor John
Franklin Jameson, of Chicago Universe
ty, will aid many readers to grasp
not merely the plan but the underlying
purpose of Motley's writing.
1t is, of course, unnecessary to say
anything concerning the work itself.
Fifty years ago, when it first APP
peared, 1t was recognized in every civ
ilized country as a history destined to
become a classic. It's beauty of style,
clearness and comprehensiveness unit
ed to give it's author a place in the
great triumvirate, making it a quater-

ing.
The Worcester spy. [volume] (Worcester, Mass.) 1898-1904, 1901-11-09

Sometimes we receive the best idea
of book by having it negatively dis
cussed, by hearing what 1t is mot" in
stead Of what it 'is' Acting on that
suppostion we venture to say that the
'Three Fair Philanthropists is not a
book written to emphasize class dis
tinctions. We think it worth while to
make this statement because we have
heard the above accusation made
against the book. But it seems to US
reasonable to insist that if such had
been the authors aim she necessarily
must have made all her rich people
bad and her poor people good.
We would draw attention to- the ac-
tual state of the case. There is Mrs.
Conrad, although wealthy, a most per-
feet character, and so is Mrs Winns
On the other hand, the poor, repre-
scented by Biddy O'Monahan, Maggie
Flynn Clemintine Flutter, Mary Shar-
key, are very far removed from perfect.
No one would ever think of CHASING
them with an angelic sisterhood. Miss
Muzzy seems to express through them
the conviction that must come to every
worker in their midst viz, that the
ignorant working girl has her failings
as well as the three fair philanthro-
pists, and she should be dealt with in
wisdom and in patience.
The fact of the matter is, class dis
tinctions had no part or lot in Miss
Muzzy's object in writing her book.
Those who read that motive into the
book show both great perversity and
an obtuse wilfulness.
1t may easily be seen that her main
object was to demonstrate wherein
real wealth and real beneVolence con-
sists. To the majority Of readers the
book says in no uncertain tones: That
man is the richest whose pleasures are
the cheapest. Let us so live as to de-
rive our satisfactions and inspirations
from the commonest events, every day
phenomena, so that what our senses
hourly perceive in our daily walks, the
conversations of our neighbors may in
spire us. Remembering that only that
travelling is good which reveals to us
the value of home and enables us to-
enjoy 1t better"
AS this review has drifted into the
refutation order of discourse it might
be we'll to speak word to those who
complain that Miss Muzzy, by depict
ing these three philanthropists in the
way she has, leaves the impression that
all rich girls commit the follies of the
Misses Mettle Hopper and Denny. The
foolishness Of such an argument is met
by the question-if Miss MuZzy thought
all rich girls belonged to the same class
as her three fair philanthropists how
could she have hoped to- interest her
public in a theme so prosaicly common.
That there are many from the ranks
of the wealthy who are doing honest,
true work for their fellow-men, no one
would care to deny That there are
none from the same ranks who are adj
dicted to the foolishnesses of the three
fair philanthropists only those would
care to deny who knew absolutely moth
ing about it.
But to- those acquainted with the
subject the book is like many an irk-
some noise which, when heard a long
way off, sounds like music and is a
proud sweet satire on the meanness
of our lives.

Just at this time, when the atten-
ton OF the whole civilized world is be-
ing turned toward the solution of the
socialistic problem a work analyzing
the first fruits of socialism is of dis
tinct value. Such a work is this thor
Cugh study of the French Revolution
and its resultant creed, which during
the past century has left an impress
upon civilization by begetting socialism
in present-day France.
The work is evidently the result of
palnstaking research back to original
sources. Beginning with the "Prin-
ciples of the French Revolution" and
the growth of the idea of political lib
erty the author locates the various in
fluences, internal and external, which
converged to the final crisis, designed
to establish what seemed a social order
more propitious than that which had
been conducted by the long established,
but now discredited, authorities. Their
guiding principles were not deductions
from the history of man, but from rea-
SON."
The purpose Of Part I is to show
how Frenchmen of the eighteenth cen
fury came to be at odds with the creeds
of an old. social order and how this
quarrel bred a new set of theories
which came to be counted fundamen-
tai 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 an
other series of progressive changes re-
sulting in another body of principles
leveled against the accepted social or
der. The author endeavors to outline
the immediate influences which have
developed, French socialism into a spe-
cific doctrine and to define that doctrine
at the present time. Finally comes a
summary and a comparison of the
social with the political theory.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
A p A r F 7 G E N L l.
KNIGHT.
BY Charlton Andrews.
"a. c. McClurg & Coz

The title, derived from Chaucer, de-
scribes the hero of this romance-the
Count of Chabanes-Who shows himself
to be the finest type of the gallant gen
tleman of the period, without fear and
without reproach. The incidents of the
story take place during the reign Of
Charles TX of France, the days Of con-
slant strife between Catholics and HUI
guenots, when intrigues and assassina-
tions were every day affairs.
The Count Of Chabanes is confronted
with a situation which few men can
meet successfully-the necessity of
serving the woman he loves, while he
knows that she belongs to another, and
that man his best friend and superior
officer. The nobility with which he pro
tects her name from the faint of court
scandal and keeps the trust imposed
upon him. is the leading motive OF a
powerful and brilliant romance. 1t has
the complicated plot and rapid action
that command an absorbed interest on
the part CT the reader, and the book
bids fair to be among the seasons sue
Cesses.
