 A good cheer book
 Is the best year book
 and there Is a world of good sense and sound philosophy in the sentiment.
 We desire a message from that si- lent companion, our favorite year book, not of profound and abstruse meaning, not a message over which we must knit our brows and puzzle our brains, but one that heartens and consoles. one that throws beam of light upon the thorny or rugged pathway of the week, and leads us to take up our daily bur den with song and not groan.

The Lord Is the strength of my life, of whom shall I be afraid?
 May this charming volume find a very large audience, and bring hope and joy to every one to whom it speaks it's cheery message.

 One of the delightful and important books of the season. sure. of, course. to command the interest of multitude of readers is Anthony Hopes new novel Double Harness published by Me C1ure, Phillips & Co. New York. In ..Double Harness" Mir. Hope turns from writing of mere adventure to the de- llneation of life and character and he strikes into a new field of fiction for him. The new story is good reading, and has much that is unusual and of intense interest. The plot is, to say the least, unique and there are many start ling denouelnents which indicate that the book will hold fast the readers at tention. Double Harness" deals with the institution of marriage, as practis- ed in these highly civilized times. More specifically, it is a study of the joys and evils of matrimony, as exem- plified in the lives of half a dozen welded couples, whom it is hoped the author has not chosen as typical of English married life. Married couples. samples of the bulk" as MT. flaw kins calls them, are thus set before the reader to illustrate some of the scores of troubles that double harness causes. It should be set down here that for
 principal characters MT. and Mrs. Grantley Imason-he has selected the most typical, unpromising pair of Eng fish people of the well born and we'll to-do sort that he could find. Then there are Tom Courtland and his wife, Harriet, an honest we'll meaning fell low, if triae weak, tied to a woman with a temper that at times bursts forth into the rancorous ituperation of a Billingsgate fishwife.

And there are others. But MT. Hope has his different married teams we'll in hand and the dark scenes which disturbed and dis

figured their married lives culminate aL last, not as the reader IS half expecting in a general catastrophe, or cataclysm for the aforesaid married people, but in an extrication of them all from their difficulties and misunderstanding This extrication Is most cleYerly done in the round up While to some readers it does not seem clear that there is q moral lesson inolved in the unfolding of the tale, to others moral is clearly enough apparent. The idiosyncrasies of the different characters are very clever ly drawn and Mr. Hopes flashing wit and capacity for incisiye, haIf cynical comment appears to advantage in adorning the story. There is a very bright study of the married state in this book Of 4l0 pages. Copies at the Pease-Lewis Co.'s. price $I.5O.
 Jack Tenfleld's Star is very pret- ty story of 325 pages for boys and girls, by Martha James, author of My Friend Jini' and Tom Winstone Wide Awake It is attraetively illustrated by Charles Copeland, and is published by Lee and Shepard, Boston. Jack Tenfield is decidedly bright Bos- ton boy. Tfa. Wni.e prep4.i.g for col lege, is brought to face the fact that his father, a benevolent physician, and supposed to be welI-to- do, had really left no estate. Jack resolutely defends his fathers memory, and makes the best of 1t. Circumstances bring much travel and many adventures, in all of which his generous, manly character rings true. Two men are one day dis cussing him, and one says that he will make his mark. To this the other as- sents, provided the boys star is lucky. The older declares that to be nonsense, and that each is his own star. That Jack is capable of being his own star" well expresses the excellent thought of the book, which is remarkable for Yari- ety of well-told incidents. Jacks sis ter, Mamie, is a very important char acter, and girls will lso be attracted to the story; $1.25; for sale by all booksel- lers.
 Evelyn Raymond, successful writer of stories for the young, is the author of .'An Honor Girl, just issued by Lee and Shepard, Boston. It is a bright, helpful story of girl who, as the val edietorian and honor girl'' of her class at high school, wins a scholarship which would take her through Welles- ley college. Family reyerses bring il home to her that duty demands that she devote herself to helping her pa. rents and WayWard brother to face the future better than they seem likely to. She heroically surrenders her priize,

DID you undertake to keep dog free from
feas-not whining little toy dog, but normal dog
that about in the grass and leads dogs life?
It's thankless job. Every day or two you have to
sprinkle him with powder, the smell Of which is dis
tasteful to you deestable to the dog and abhorrent
to the feas. Some of the latter are made deathy
SICK some MANNED, and many are killed outright
but strange to say, their public punishment does not
act as deterrent on the feas that are not caught
The latter continue to increase and multiply
just if flea had never been brought to Justice
and whenever they get the chance they bite dog
One dog furnishes sustenance for many generations
of feas, the most rigid police surveillance failing to
discourage the young and active among them. In a
given length of time you will find given number of
feas given dog. The most vicious are the ones
that have been sckened by the powder. They are
also the hardest to kill, they don't mind it so
much the second time; in FACT after the third or
fourth dose they actually to enjoy it. This is
condition, not theory as Mr.. Cleveland used to
say. No matter how great your sympathy for the
dog may be, you can't help him. You can't estab-
fish social settlements in feadom, you can't kill all
the feas in the world It wouldn't be fair to kill all
the dogs. The best way is to let the dogs and the
feas fight it out among themselves.

On second thought, does it not seem that the So
called reformers who invegh against the marriage of
consumptives and persons afflicted with other organic
and possibly hereditary diseases are after all very
short-sighted? Does it not seem that those who
clamor for legislation prohibiting the mating of such
sick persons allow their zeal to hoodwink their
son? They have at heart they assert the welfare of
the coming generation and yet they would not pro-
hibit the marriage of consumptive and healthy
person. believing that the child of the illassorted
pair nherits disease from parent he likewise
