THE LITERARY WORLD

There are quite a number of short
stories, among the contributors being
Allan Kelly, Harold l.. Bailey, Emvlvn
Guild Lull, J. Alden Loring, Harold
Bindloss and Frank II. Melloon.
The Anniversary number Of The Burr
Mcintosh Monthly (AprlD is one OF
the most attractive issues of "The
most beautiful magazine in the world"
put out by the publishers. 1t contains
three pages i'm superb colors. sixteen
pages i'm two colors and forty other
pages in duotone ink, all printed on
fine enamel paper. Several we'll
known society people are portrayed.
among them Mrs. Daniel r. Hanna.
Mrs stephen B. Elkins and Mrs. j. B.
Haggn. Exquisite views of Palm
Beach. Fla, and the automobile races
lat Ormond are among the panoramic
pictures shown. Other nature views
complete the number and the maga-
zine is bound i'm the usual unique form
with silk cord.
The cover design of The Pilgrim for
April is suggestive of Easter, and hints
I'm a way to the nature of the maga-
zines contents. The first article is con-
cerme1 appropriately with Easter. and
tells OF The manner of the feast's cele-
brauon throughout the world Tho
Illustrations picturing the preparations
for observing the Passover i'm Samaria
are striking. A second article. equally
interesting, lis by Day Allen Wiley, and
describes the city of Ainecameca, the
holiest city i'm old Mexico. The iHustra-
tions are among the most interesting
The Pilgrim has ever published. At
this precise moment when all eyes are
ON Japan. Miss Jessie Acl1eman's
autlcle on the Ainus, the afborigines
of Japan, WIN be read with great in
terest. Still another happily illustrated
anticle is by Stella Reid, and deals with
little community of Waldensians in
the South. Pottery is the subject treat-
ed in the series of articles The Pilgrim
is publishing on women's work i'm divers
fields.
Frank A. Vanderlip. I'm the March
Scribner's, reviews with great cleanness
and striking illustration the part which
Government education has played in
the industrial development Of modern
Europe. He ascribes the great advance
i'm Gnmany and Switzerland TO their
fostering technical education. and the
backward movement Of England and
France to their imperfect methods Of
education. He also points out the way
for the United States to keep its place
at the head of industrial nations.

Golfers for April Is discusses its
own fairness as q journal by saying:
Brickbats and bouquets come TO a
newspaper as an expected part of the
days work. The censure which we
receive is more likely to treat of our
lack of sense, but it occasionally takes
up the question of fairness also. AL
though the article on "The Newspa-
per Shell Game" was published al
most year ago, am irate reader has
just sent i'm his opinion that "'when
1t comes TO blackguardism of hypocrisy
you can probably give Mr. Hearst or
any other man cards and spades. You
are certainly it," Our own opinion is
that we are rather exceptionally fair.
Let us take examples. Some very
brilliant articles have been sent to us
about the danger to health caused by
unhygienic methods of the Beef Trust.
In order not to run any risk of wrong
ing that aggregation, we engaged Ma
jor Seaman to go TO Chicago, and his
first report will appear next week. In
the same issue win appear a lucubra-
tion by Mr.. Hapgood. filled to over
flowing with the effort to decide just
how much of a liar Thomas w. Law
son is, what his character is, and
what good he is accomplishing; all
though it would be easier and pleas
anter just to make good copy of his
absurdties We look upon ourselves
as, i'm this one respect of search for
truth. extremely moral. We may have
most Of the other sins eXtant, but for
the effort to get at all the truth we
can. irrespective of the interest of any
class or any persons, we really de-
serve a little praise.
Anticipating the coming camping
season, the leading article i'm Recrea-
ton for April is Summer Camps and
Campers" by Arnold Bartlett Parker.
The story is filed with illustrations
and contains many practical hints for
the tenderfoot and his wife in the
woods and on the waters. "In the
country Of the Black Sheep" is a
story by B. II. Brown. covering a
| trip through British Columbia. after
the Ovus Stonei the sO-called Ameri-
can black sheep discovered by Andrew
| J. stone several years ago. An inter-
esting feature Of this story is the
careful attention paid to camping de-
tails and the valuable suggestions to
those hunters who go to the noun
tains in search of big game. /. A.

Railway Care in India.

Hot times in India have led to a
unique car construction. The passen-
ger cars have double roofs. the one
from two and half to eight inches
above the other. The upper roof Is
continued from the sides about 2S
inches, forming an awning over the
upper part Of the windows. Another
popularity of the first and second-class
cars is the servants compartment at
each end, as almost every passenger
takes at least one servant with him.
