lust been published by the Ameri-
can Book Company. They are Mon
santo and Languellier's Practical
Course in Spanish" edited by Freeman
NJ. Josselyn. and "Grimm's Kinder
und Hausmarchen," edited by B. ]. Vos
For many years Monsanto and Lam
guellier's has been one OF the most sue
cessful Spanish grammars before the
public. 1t aims to make the basic prin-
ciples Of Spanish grammar familiar to
the student by constant practice and
repetition in Spanish, and to this end
the Spanish examples are made as nu-
merous as possible. The advance In
linguistics. and the new rules OF accen-
tuation promulgated by the Spanish
Academy, have made a revision Of the
book necessary. The original form OF
the work has been retained so far as
possible. but such grammatical state
ments as needed change have been re-
cast. The Spanish text is presented IN
accordance with the latest rules for
photography and accent.
The German tales need no introduce
ton. There are no others which from
the day they were published to the
present time have so steadily retained
their hold on childhood. Their interest
and their simplicity render them par
ticularly suitable for elementary read
ing.

Stories, the tale will bear reading any
day in the year 1t Is a simple little
story that makes the reader feel better
for having come across 1t. When an
author is able to make the reader of
many books keep in his mind for many
days the nebulous image of a wide
eyed little darby with ideals then that
author has not written in vain. This
has Ruth McEnery Stuart done.
George Washington Jones Is little,
orphaned and irredeemably black. His
head is full of the grand tales told him
by his grandfather of how that worthy
was one time sent to beautiful fairy
lady as a Christmas gift long before
the war. To the bright little head Of
George washington there comes, there
fore, the brilliant idea of making
Christmas present of himself to some
equally lovely mistress and thereby fol-
low in the path of his honored grand
parent But when the little Niger
starts out to make of himself Christ
mas gif'," he finds that in these de-
generate days Of ours little colored
kids offering to give themselves away
are considered beggars.
How the little fellow suffered one re-
buff after another until he was glad to
nestle to the bosom of a kind old child
less nanny is told with words which
leave but a narrow frontier between
tears and laughter. Then of George
washington's final triumph and of his
service in the home of the old lady who
was once the charge of that very idyl-
lie grandfather the details are re-
counted. 1t is triumph for the reader
as well as for George Washington
Jones. for the reader feels as If the lit
tie kinky pate Is next of kin before he
finishes with him.

YKNOw a little old maiden lady
who welcomes new story by
Charles Major as she would val
entine from an eighteen-year-old BOY.
She has seen fifty summers and away
back in the twentieth she had her only
little love affair. In her second
maidenhood she lives In a hallowed
memory of this love affair of thirty
years gone by. Her faded cheeks will
glow a trifie when she grows reninis-
cent and she viii shipper coy little
shipper when the tender passion is men
toned. Next to discovering a new
breakfast food or hearing Of some
happy instance Of two bleeding hearts.
this little old maiden lady would rather
read Charles Majors books than any
thing else in the whole world. They
are Just so lovely"
So it will be a red-letter day for the
little maiden lady when "A Forest
Hearth" is put into her hands by some
ill-advised but we'll meaning friend.
For IL ever there was a love tale pre-
pared especially for single and senti-
mental ladies of many summers, this
is that one. To invalids taking the
rest cure who must be shielded from
excitement it must surely prove a gen
tie sedative. The growing girl of the
household Will be happy to have 1t read
TO her by the impressionable house
maid.

baronial manor or a log cabin can be

need only be some other time than the

the story starts out and with a slow

to the length required of the modern
novel and then with a faint rafting of
the cogs and wheels comes to a digni-

Rafting Story
of a C0rniO0L

WO OF our San Francisco literati
have harked back to the good old
days Of the earliest story teIlers
70 ind the form for tale upon which
tney have collaborated. THE Reign OF
queen Isyl," by Gelett Burgess and
VIII Irwin. has the old stiIted pro-
iogue and high sounding chapter head
ings OF an eighteenth century romance,
but sparkles with the most up-to-date
slang and Is replete with modernisms
which are more startling in contrast to
their archaic setting.
Again, like some OF the old Italian
roHlances the book contains tales with
IN tale. Upon the skeleton plot Of a
carnival queen Of San Jose, who was
spirited away upon the eve Of her coro-
nation to have a pretender sit upon the
throne of mirth. the two authors have
stretched web OF stories from the
mouths Of the principal Characters
which divide the honors Of interest on
the part Of the reader with the thread
OF the main narrative.
There is enough mystery to the royal
abduction to satisfy the most fnvet-
crate reader of Anna Katherine Green
and the tales recounted by the news
paper special correspondent, the pro-
fessional spieler and the rest are
breezy and new. The book is a good
one to pick up for an hour while dinner
IS being prepared; it will give you
something to laugh about and make
the meal the more pleasant.

out over the jangling keys OF our
neighbours piano that Jobs bodily dts
comforts haven't been a marker to the
mental anguish that has been the lot
of all right-minded individuals. AL
most drowned out by this persistent
bowling of musical bosh, yet sounding
with a pure. sweet note to those with
ears attuned, have been the genuine
darby melodies of the darky poet,
Paul Lawrence Dunbar. Now we have
another collection of his poems, pub
lished in an attractive holiday form,
under the title Of when Malindy
Sings"
Those of us who have had the rare
good fortune to have lived down in the
South, where the darby is still a
darby and not a "cullud gemmun,"
speak of the real music that there is in
the hearts of the typical south Of Dixie
negroes. Their song is spontaneous,
bubbling; their rhymes have often the
ring Of true poesy. To catch this ster-
ling worth and give 1t to American
literature at it's real value is the work
or Paul Lawrence Dunbar. Right we'll
has he accomplished his task; but let
us all hope that there remain yet a
great many more songs for the young
negro poet to sing.
In the present volume there are
twenty bits OF verse ranging in senti-
ment from rollicking banjo songs to
pathetic reflections upon the loss of
dear ones. The darkys feelings lie
very near the surface and Dunbar has
deftly caught the strange blend OF sun
shine and shadow which is the charac-
teristic OF his race. So few and so
simple are the words necessary to ex-
press the deepest thoughts. Witness
the following stanza from a little poem
entitled The Memory of Martha
Down by de road de shadders grows,
An oh. but hits moughty lonely;
Seem lax de ve'y moonlight knows,
An oh. but hits moughty lonely!
Does you know rs cryin' fu' you. oh,
my wife?
Does you know dey amt no JOY no mo-
in life?
An my only fought Is dis.
Dat rs honin' fu' de bliss
Flu to quit dis groun' o. worriment an
strife"
Not the least of the poetry In the
negro songs lies in the delicate nature
thoughts. The plantation darby, liv-
ing next to the ground" day In and
day out. is ever ready to catch the CLINT
OF the leaves and the shine OF the grass.
Here again it needs no ponderous
Wordsworthian stanza to clothe the
thought. Writes Dunbar:
"willer boughs a-bendin',
Hidin of de sky.
Wavin' kin o. frienly
Ez de win go by.
Elum trees a-shinin'.
Dahk an green an thick;
Seems to say, i see yo'
Wadin' in de crick.' F"
