r ONDON, June 9.-Although at

fact that most of them could do so,
If the occasion required. This ability

The making OF Robb,

The making Of Robby Burnt BY
George Randolph Chester. Illustroted
by James Montgomery Flagg and II.
Il. Gruger. 12mo, CLOTH $3.50. The
Bcbbs- merrill company, indianapolis.
With much of the shrewd, proctical
business wisdom of the famous Letters
Of a Self-Alade Merchant, with quite
as generous q measure of numor, Mr..
Chester's story has in addition a most
engaging love interest The three
characterization, humor and love
are moreover excellently we'll COM
pounded. Each is present in the story
in precisely the right proportion, and
in the skilful hands of the author the
three have been mixed aud stirred, and
beaten to lightness, and finally brown
ed to a delicious crisp, The story Is
indeed instantly tempting even to the
fastidioris appetite, and it is through
ly digestible by the most capricious
fancy.
Bobby Burnt himself Is a chap whom
one likes the moment that one snakes
him by the hand. Who could help
lilieing so utterly SSSeet-natured. jolly,
fresh. young fellow as Bobby Burnt
is, whose faults are, after all. faults
of training and not o character? At
whatever game Bobby pays he plays
airly ad squarely: he Is good loser
and when luck is with him is generous
to the man who has lost. No more
likable Young man has appeared in the
pages of American fiction in very
long time. In truth bobby is more than
likabe--he is lovable.
Having given ones own heart out
right to Bobby at the start it is very
easy for the reader to understand
why Agnes Elliston is fond of him
ana so the love part Of the story
seems at once natural and is convinc-
ing.
The story is American TO the core.
Both the rapidity and the ease with
which immense deals are made Bob
by's equal capacity for unbroken
idleness and for constant toll. the
large horizon, the teeming possible
ties in commerce that are suggested
on the side and in the background
all these things are truly and typical-
Iy American. Though 1t is concerned
In way almost constantly with the
making of money. it is by no menas
.sorbid, for money-making is but its
sub-theme, the real one being the
making of man.
+ The process by which this evolution
is brought about captures the reader
by Its freshness and wiiimsica,ity.zThe
odd will left by John Burnt. owner
of an immense store. which provides
the curious conditions on which his

From his exhaustive study of the
mans life, Prof Cross elnerges with a
higher opinion of his hero's personal
character than is usually accorded to
Laurence Sterne and one may we'll ex-
pect that the publication of this work
will do much for his future reputn-
ton. An important feature of the book
is the reproduction. in some cases for
the first time, of every known portrait
of Sterne.
The second edition of Miss Ellen Glas-
sotr $ new novel, The Romance of 81

of publication. The scene of the
novel is laid in Richmond and in it Miss
Glasgow has painted a vivid picture OF

the war.
Prof. Il. A. Kirkpatrick, whose Fun
damentals OF Child Study" has recently
been translated into German, has just
published another work in which he
forInulatcs the broader truths of genet
psychology. After studying the psy-
chology of the child for nearly 20 years
Prof. Kirkpatrick found 50 much inter-
est in the subject among his students.
that his efforts to work out the general
principles of mental genesis have finally
taken the form of "Cienetic Psychol-
ogy," his new book published by the
MacMillan company. In 1t he
deals largely with the first dawn
of intelligence upon the lowest
forms of animal life. BY avoiding
technical terms as much as possible.
Prof. kirkpatrick has written a book
