1t was to be expected that the Gold
smith poem. illustrated by Edwin A. Abbey.
which has formed such a notable feature
or Harper's magazine during the year.
would be put into book form. This has
been done with results even more striking
than was expected. The drawings are
made more effective than was possible on
the narrower page and lighter paper OF the
periodical. and the typographical character
is correspondingly improved. Probably only
an artist acquainted by experience with
the difficulty of producing the results Sc
cured by Abbey can fully appreciate the
remarkable quality Of this masters work,
but even the most casual observer must
look with wonder and admiration upon the
perfection of his art. Each and every
drawing calls for close study, and re-
pays ii. There is a fascination in such
study even for the amateur: the accuracy
on line, the marvellous effects of light and
shade, the evidences Of amazing painstak-

All are lessons In art hardly 10 be
equaled through the close inspection of any
other illustrators work. There are nearly
forty full-page drawings. and the volume
thus forms an album Of art Of unusual
quality and value.
The book has an introduction by Austin
Dobson. in which is an analysis of the Gold
smith poem and something of the authors
history. Following this is Goldsmith's dedi-
cation of the work to Sir Joshua Reynolds.
Praise must be given for the artistic type
used in presenting the poem. also for that
in the title page. Altogether, Messrs.
Harper & Brothers have provided a setting
Tor the poem that must meet the most ex-
acting requirements. The poet is honored
by the artist and the artist has a subject

THE ART OF THE VATICAN.

The subject Of this book is not, as might
be thought from the title. papal diplomacy,
but fine art as represented In the collec-
ton of the Vatican. The term Vatican"
is often used to denote the papal authority
or government, but as used here 1t relates
to the magnificent ~assemblage of buildings
at Rome constituting the Vatican, and in
Guiding the Pope's palace, a museum. Ii
brary, art gallery, etc. The Vatican, as 1t
is to-day, with its outbuildings, gardens
and grounds, covers a space equal to a city
with a population of over 100,O 900, as Euro
pean cities are built. Compared in size
with the palace alone. ever the Colosseum
sinks into insignihcance. The Colosseum
would not fill UP the ground plan of st.
Peters, and it would take all of st. Peters
and more than half as much again to equal
the extent of the Vatican. In its inception
the Vatican was outside the walls of an
Gent Rome. 1t has been many centuries
in building, and contains the accumulated
art treasures of many papal reigns. 1.-The
Art of the Vatican" by Mary K. Porter.
gives a history of the successive stages of
the construction of the noble buildings
which constitute the Vatican. and a de-
tailed description of the great works of
art contained in it's halls. Here Michael
Angelo performed his mightiest works, the
terrific Last Judgment" and the monu-
mental Prophets and SYPHILIS of the Sistine
Chapel, and here Raphael painted his
sublimest compositions. 1t would be i'm
possible in one volume to describe even
specifically all the art treasures of the
Vatican. This one makes no pretense Of
describing the library or the museum, which
are renowned throughout the world, nor
does it even describe all the treasures of
the art gallery, but it does contain faith
full descriptions and critical notices of many
of the most celebrated features, including
the Borgia apartments, the Sistine Chapel,
Raphael's Loggia, Raphael's tapestries, the
sculpture galleries, etc. There are photo
gravure pictures of over forty of these cele-
brated works, reproducing them in the
minutest details. including even the cracks
in the wall and the flaws in the marble.
All of the works thus reproduced are by
old masters. The book is one to be studied
by art students, by lovers OF art. and by all
who expect ever TO visit Rome. 1t is pub
lished by l.. c.. Page & Co., Boston, in the
Art Galleries of Europe series.

In writing about Mr.. Barrie's work not
long since, Miss Jeanette Glider claimed
to have introduced that writer to the
American public. II was literary adviser Of

and I accidentally came across the
English copies of "A Window In Thrums'

ties Of these books before 1 even read

touch of a book and the turn of its pages
that makes itself felt" If Miss Glider felt
of the manuscript of "a Little White
Bird" Barrie's latest production. and
passed 1t on to the publisher on the
strength of that test, her sense of touch
for once failed her. People less gifted who
can only judge of a books merits by read
ing 1t are saying that "a Little White
Bird" is sentimental rubbish.

Papers"

Footnote to Leigh Hunts wishing Cap
Papers"
Most of Leigh Hunts literary ccntempor-
aries meddled with politics. Sir Walter
Scott dabbled in them. Southey con-
tributed political essays TO the Quar-
terly Review and Coleridge wrote political
articles for the Morning Post and the Morn
ing Chronicle. Wordsworth was the author
of a political pamphlet o n the peace OF
Cintra. and Moore dashed of many a witty
political squib. Wilson was a rash and
bitter political writer; and Hazlett pub
lished a volume Of political essays Sydney
Smith wrote political pamphlets and pub
lished political articles in the newspapers.
Even 1.-THE gentle Ella" wrote political
squibs and epIgrams for the Examiner
and the New Times
Politics, 10 those who are DESTROYS of be-
coming acquainted with anything that con-
Germs mankind. are. as Leigh Hunt says
elsewhere, "a part OF humane literature:
and they who can be taught to like them
in common with wit and philosophy, insen-
sibly do an infinite deal OF good by minglsng
them with the common talk OF life and
helping 10 render the stream OF public
opinion irresistible"

WE READ BOOKS.

To say that Indianapolis is a book read
ing town is not to re-echo the tiresome
twaddle concerning it's supremacy as an
intellectual and literary center. 1t is a
simple truth to say that it is a community
Of intelligent, progressive people, whose in
terests are many and diverse. and who
seek not only TO keep in touch with the lit
erature bearing upon their specialties, but
with general literature as well. There are
among them educators. scientists. physi-
clans, lawyers, workers OF every class. al
pursuing some line OF investigation, all
thinker and with minds alert to all that
Is new in their respective fields. There Is
a multitude OF men and women who read
widely and discriminatory from sheer de-
light in intellectual activity. and there
Is the other multitude that reads for pas
time only. but not necessarily and in
variably books that are not worth while.
On the contrary, IL is the testimony OF IL
brarians and book dealers that the fiction
readers Of Indianapolis are amazingly
awake to what is desirable in that line and
are quick to demand the latest and best.
There are few classes Of society that are
not readers OF books Of some sort, most
OF them good books. Even where the lit
erature is of the lightest, most trivial
sort. 1t is doubtless better to read this
than nothing. Poor books are reasonably
sure to lead to better ones. This intellect
ual activity speaks well for a town, and ii
is an activity likely to continue. since the
present system of education teaches child
rem to use hooks and how to use them.
II is an age Of books and reading, and In
d~ianapolis keeps pace with the spirit of the
age.

The SOIace of Books.

What matter though my room be small,
Though this red lamp light looks
On nothing but a papered wall
And some few rows of books?
For in my hand I hold a key
That opens golden doors;
AT whose resistless sesame
A tide Of sunlight pours,
In from the basking lawns that lie
Beyond the bound'ry wall;
Where summer broods eternally
Where the cicadas call.
There all the landscape softer Is,
There greener tendrils Irvine,
The bowers are rooted with clematis.
With br.ony and vine.
There pears and apples golden hang.
There falls the honey dew.
And there the birds that morning sang
When all the world was new.
Beneath the oaks Menalcas woos
Arachnia's nut-brown eyes:
And still the laughing Faun pursues,
And still the wood nymph files.
And you may hear young orpheus there
Come singing through the wood,
Or catch the CLEAN OF golden hair
In dams solitude.
So when the world is all awry,
When life is out OF chime.
take this key OF gold and fly
To that serener cline:
To those fair sunlit lawns that lie
Beyond he bound'ry wall.
Where summer broods eternally
And youth Is over all.

the seasons output. Several of the vol
umes are large and elaborate and involve
much labor in preparation on the part of
their editors, who in nearly every case are
professional teachers of cookery. Publish
ers are quick to see the drift in educational
lines, and this unusual activity in the de-
partment Of domestic science must be taken
to indicate a demand on the part Of the
public for this class Of instruction. The
indication is encouraging. II you do not

ORCHESTRAL INSTRUMENTS AND
THEIR USE.

Musical instruments of a simple kind are
Of very ancient origin, but music in the
modern sense does not date further back
than the middle ages. True
music did not exist in ancient times and
it is only in medieval and modern times
that orchestral music has existed and
among European nations that the evolu-
ton, of harmony and counterpoint have
made possible the rich and manifold tex
lures of modern orchestral compositions.
The orchestra as il is now known is OF COM
p~aratively recent development. AS late as
the year 1900 the first opera was produced
at Florence with the accompaniment OF a

It Is not worth while to complain Of the
food Of fiction. No one need read more
novels than he wishes, but, on the other
hand, there is a demand that equals the
supply. A vast number of people read
fiction, not for any merit IL may have as
literature, not for any sidelight it may
throw on history or historical characters,
not because it is the book other people are
r~eading-they read for the story only.
They are tired. they have cares, they
have troubles and anxieties-they read
to escape these, to forget them,
to get away from themselves. 1t
does not matter greatly what the novel
Is, whether tragedy or comedy. whether
written with literary skill or with a prem
tice hand, so long as the end desired is at
tanned. Occasionally a novel is so utterly
bad that its very faults make it a source
of entertainment, sometimes 1t is so bad
that it only exasperates: but most habitual
novel readers who are trying to escape
from reality and themselves learn to find
a degree of satisfaction in very common
place tales, should better ones not be avail
able. And while this sort of need con-
tinues novels of a commonplace sort will
go on being written and printed along with
the rest. The primary purpose OF the novel
is to entertain, and in so far as 1t does this
it is a success. whatever fault the critics
may find with 1t.

An English writer. discussing the asser-

stories are not popular. advances the theory
that one cause is the high price demanded
for them. and expresses a belief that the
public would take to them readily IL they

that they should be published in a cheaper

Otherwise. inasmuch as II costs the same
TO get out an ordinary volume of short
stories that 1t does a novel. the publishers
would probably not see their way clear TO
making such reduction in price. especially
as they would presently be asked why hey
did not sell their novels at the same re-
