The author of this book, N. c. Fowler,
adopted a curious and original plan of COL
lecting information which should be help
full to parents. teachers, guardians and all
interested in the training OF boys. He pre-
pared a circular containing twenty-five
pointed and leading questions. such as ITO
what one thing, or TO what two or more
things do you attribute your success?' I'm
choosing trade. business or profession,
would you advise boy to enter the one
for which he has a decided preference?''
I'm your opinion is pronounced preference
for any calling necessary to full success in
it?" IF the farmers boy does not like
farming should he, in your opinion, be kept
on the farm" Would you advise boy
to 40 TO college II he intends TO enter busi-
ness?" would you advise a boy to go to
technical school IL he intends to learn a
mechanical trade?' DO you think il wise
TO force a boy into college against his
wiil?" Twenty-Five such questions as these
can be made to cover considerable ground
The circular was addressed to several hum
dred representative successful men in diff
ferent walks, professions and vocations of
life and answers were received from 319

A Blaze Of Glory,

This book will be warmly received by
persistent readers of light and airy fiction
such as the novels of ''The Duchess" Char
lotte NJ. Braeme and others of that ilk. but
ii contains little to hold the attention of
those who enjoy better literature. The
most that can be said for the book is that it
is a rather entertaining love story The
author (John Strange Winter. who has
some really good work to her credit makes
an attempt to heighten the interest of her
story by Juggling in the war between the
Beers and Britons. and incidentally also
TO furnish an explanation for the garish
title but falls far short In both. Merely
saying that the heroine carried dispatches
of Importance TO British general in South
Africa scarcely furnishes adequate founda-
ton for the declaration that she (the
heroine) would return TO England in Ia
blaze of glory" 1t is sad TO witness such
retrogression in author and makes one
hope that she may succeed again i'm finding
herself" Philadelphia: j. b. Lippincott Co.

The EOur Feathers.

Harry Feversham, the son of a long line
of brave British soldiers and himself a
soldier who has not yet seen any service.
is haunted by a fear that when the test
comes he will prove to be a coward. The
fear is the result of an imaginative tenn
permanent inherited from his dead mother.
1t is so strong that when his regiment
is ordered to active duty in Egypt he sends
in his resignation. Three fellow-ofhcers
who knew the cause of his resignation,
send him a box containing three white
feathers. AS ill-luck would have IL he
opens the box in the presence or the girl
TO whom he is engaged and she, thinking
him coward, breaks a white feather from
her fan and adds 1T to the others. The
engagement is broken and the young man,
to prove that he is not a coward, rushes
off to Africa where, by some conspicuous
feat of bravery, he forces the three officers
10 retract their imputation. He returns TO
England indicated and is able to set him
self right with his former sweetheart who
still loves him. From these as the main
incidents. but with many others inter-
woven, A. T.. w. Mason has constructed a
first-rate story. He has a spirited style,
as is proved in his Miranda of the Bal
cony.' and THE Four Feathers is a story
which everyone who begins will finish be-
cause of it's dramatic action and clever
portrayal of characters. New York: The
Macmillan Company.

"The Wooing of Judith" by Mrs. Sara
Beaumont Kennedy, is a story of noble
English refugees In the old colony days of
Virginia, in the time of Cromwell. 1t is a
love story pure and simple, story whose
''woof and warp are love-" In her other
novel, "Joscelyn Cheshire Mrs. Kennedy
has already shown that she can tell tale
with vigor and charm, and this, her second
venture fulfills her earlier promise. In
point of interest and description the book
is not dissimilar to Mary Johnston's work;
indeed Judith" suggests the heroine of
ITO Have and To Hold and the character
and general surroundings of LISA" are
even more suggestive of Audrey" The
men and women of the book are well-drawn
characters with life and blood. Especially

woman's heart: enough went into her

his finger" Again he says, talking on his
fayorite subject: ut is not looking at a
woman that sours a man, but it's summer
ing her and wintering her and eating the
victuals she cooks" Although the situa-
lions of the story are dependent on his

sense world of fascinating romance un-
folds itself to one who seeks to identify
the homes and haunts of the characters in
Boston fiction and poetry. Not only have
celebrated authors like Emerson, Longfel-
low, Hawthorne, Holmes and others made
Boston and it's vicinity classic ground, but
many less distinguished writer's have con-
tributed TO the result. In 'Fictional RAM
bles in and About Boston" Frances w.

different writer's of fiction or poetry. The
descriptive parts are classified under the
heads "In Modern Boston" I'm Old Bos-

Our Benevolent Feudalism.

Our Benevolent Feudalism is intended
to be a sneering presentation of the social
and industrial conditions which exist to-
day. 1t is a feudalism preferable in some
respects TO that of the dark ages because
the capitalists, whom he calls "baronS, y
have found it better policy to be some
what liberal and to let the lower classes,
as the author states the mass of people
who toll for their bread. have some privi-
leges. Nevertheless the masses are un-
derings subject 10 the orders of the few.
The masses have learned better than TO
resist, knowing that the regular army and
the militia are on the side of capital, and
have learned to accept what the more
benevolent capitalists give them. The
author, w. j. Client, whoever he is, is a
cynic. and his book is a caricature upon
present conditions such as Socialist with
ill-digested views might write. The Won
der is that the Mcmillan Company should
publish such book.

of his class Is that he has made great
wealth without resorting TO questionable
methods 10 make competitors stepping
stones to his success. In the broadcast and
best sense of the term Mr. Carnegie Is a
captain OF industry. He could organize and
direct on a grand scale. He had rare fore
sight combined with nasterful power of
organization. This book tells the story OF
the life of Mr. Carnegie and gives true
insight into his character. Very naturally
the tone is eulogistic and no achievement
is lost sight of which can add to his repu-
tation. II will be noticed that when the
Homestead strike or lockout Is consid-
cred the responsibility for the trouble is
placed at the door of Mr.. Frick. who was
the manager. At that time Mr. Carnegie
was in Europe. The writer explains that
when Mr. Carnegie was called upon TO in
terpose he could not because Mr.. Prick was
at the head OF the company with auto
cratic powers. The biographer, however,
does not say that IL Mr.. Carnegie had been
in Pittsburg and in charge the very costly
strike would never have occurred. The
book is exceedingly well written and hand
somely printed. New York: Doubleday,

The weaving of Webs.

1.-The Weaving of Webs" an appropriate
name for an interesting story from the
pen of Francis w. Van Praag. The
scenes are laid in Virginia during the late
rebellion. Colonel Carroll, Northern army
officer, is sent into the enemy's lines in
trusted with valuable negotiation affect
ing the lives of thousands of his COM
patriots. To gain the desired information
it is necessary for him 10 deal with a Capt.
birmingham, a shrewd, daring alien, who
had figured prominently in many political
scandals abroad and by gaining the con-
fidence of the leaders of the Confederacy
had secured for himself a commission in
the army with headquarters in Richmond:
He is a traitor TO both the Northern and
Southern causes, one who never looked at
anything except to calculate how TO turn
il to his own advantage. His step-daugh-
ter, for whom he had no affection, has
long suspected him of double-dealing and
makes every effort to prove his duplicity,
but has failed owing to his influence and
cleverness in concealing his acts of trea-
son. After many exciting adventures, haz-
ardous risks and brilliant intrigues, Col.
Carroll not only completes a successful
mission and lands Captain birmingham in
webs woven by himself, but wins the
love of Miss Henderson. the step-daughter,
who scorns a Yankee spy" but Is forced
