/ the literary reviewer of Life and Every
bodys, describes the excitement OF go

stead of guns. The illustrations thus
secured are valuable contribution to
our knowledge of animal life, and Mr.
! Kerfoot's own clean, delightful style
makes the whole work an Illuminating

article is a collection Of pictures of
children who work, with a brief intro
ductory paragraph by Charles Edward

sees these pitiful baby faces, aged by
unnatural toll, can continue to proht
from child labor is one Of the puzzles

In the Red Book Magazine for July
| Professor Frederick Starr, the famous
t3eN 81 tto TT1fy If
presents a most daring study of civ
l ilized woman under the title The
! Women Men Marry" Professor Etarr
declares that woman has never
) achieved a really first class perform
ance in literature, science or art. He
says, further, that the ultra-clVlllzeH
women of today have more in COM
; mon with the savage women than the
world realizes, and deplores generally
: the tendency among women to seek
higher education in American colleges.
AS a scientist, Professor Starr tells
why the big business man is more
! likely to wed a butterfly girl than a
maid who has earned a college diplo-
ma. His article is destined to be wide
: ly discussed. In addition to this fea-
, ture the Red Book Magazine for July
; contains stories by such well-knoWri
; writer's of fiction as James Branch
Cabell, Edwin Asa Dix, Mary Inlay
Taylor, Earl Derr Biggers, e. A. Whar-
: ton, P. H. Harris, Hugh Kennedy and
: Helen Bagg. The issue opens with
twenty-eight exquisite portrait studies
; and an account of the new plays brings
the splendid number to an end.
The July Suburban Life is distinctly
: an out-of-door number, with numerous
vacation suggestions, as well as inter-
esting contributions telling how to en-
/, joy the summer at home The leading
article by J. Horace Mcfarland. is en-
titled "a Summer Lake Carnival" and
: ought to prove of unusual suggestive
/, value to every vacation community.
"Diving, a Robust Sport" is the title
of an article with wonderfully striking
photographs, showing an expert diver
in midair. Almost a Noiseless Fourth
is an especially timely article, and "A
Boy and His Father" by Truman A
DeWeese, is a bit of real literature
Laying Out a Private Golf Course,
"Playtime for Suburban Young People
|. and Entertaining Out-ofDoors" are
valuable for the helpful suggestions
which they contain. This months arti-
| Gle on the Making over an Old House
series has to do with the servants apart
ments. "A Month IN the Maine Woods,
Living in an Automobile" and 1.-THE
Interior of the Summer Camp" should
make a special appeal to those people
haunts of civilization during the sum
ner season. The July number is espe-
cially well illustrated, an attractive fea-
ture being double page of picture en-
titled THE Good Old Summer time,
from the Feminine Point of View"
Ainslee's for July carries a table of
contents that offers to its readers a
quality and variety of fiction that has
rarely been equaled anywhere. Harold
MacGrath brings his serial story, THE
Goose Girl to a triumphant conclusion
and has demonstrated once more his
great gifts as a story teller. THE
Goose Girl" has proved to be one of the
most fascinating stories he has ever
! written. The complete novel is called
Z "The Red Flag" and is by Edith Mac
vane. 1t is story with some thrilling
situations, intensely dramatic, and has
the unusual merit of novelty. Mary r.
}, s. Andrews contributes charming
: outdoor story called 1.-THE Sabine Maid
en-" interesting, well told, as all of her
, tales are, and suggestive of the summer
vacation period. Clara f. Laughlin
has a companion story to THE Law,
, which appeared in the June number,
This new one she calls 1.-The Gospel" in
which Beth Tully again appears as the
heroine A very striking tale is THE
!, Price of Understanding, by Angela
Morgan, one in which every woman
will take a deep interest Florida Pier
has a charming story of child interest
which she calls "Napoleon's Apples.
Another story of the west is by Steel
Williams entitled very appropriately
THE Fourth in the Bad Lands" Cath
: crime Thayer has a most interesting
! short story which she calls Perpetual
Perkins" which shows the dangers of
procrastination. Another story of army
life by Quentin M. Drake is Hopkins
Sin Verguenza.'
The articles on bridge whist by Ar
/, thur Ioring Bruce are continued, and
Robert Hughes has another musical es-
say called "Story- y-Teling Music"
What Elihu Root stood for as secre-
tary of state during the three and a
half years of his incumbency of that
office as immediate successor to the
late John Hay. is set forth in Put
