 In the April Delineator is begun a series that promises to be exceedingly interesting and instructive. The title, Around the World in Eighty Pictures, is explanatory of the nature of the series to certain extent; it gives no idea, however, of the delightful form of the narrative, which is letters from a young bride on her honeymoon, to her father. The first stage of the trip is from Montreal to Vancouver, the points of interest being the quaint old Canadian cities Montreal and Ot iowa, Niagara, the wheat district of the Northwest, the Rocky Mountains, and various other features of interest en route to the Pacific. The pictures are striking and express adequately the characteristics of the great re- zion, and interest is not lost amid 8 host of dry facts, for the narrative is as pleasant reading as fiction.
