Artistic Wall Papers

tn HE Pre-eminent worth of artistic wall
papers as decorative medium has
come to be universally appreciated This
is not only due to the wide range from plain
fabric effect to the most elaborate designs,
from the subdued monotone hangings to the
highly colored landscape friezes, but because
of the many differing treatments suited to con-
form to all styles of rooms and furnishings.

A SWIFT ACTION ROMANCE.
The Woman and the Sword. BY Rupert
Lorraine. Published by y. G.. McClurg
& Co, Chicago.

The Woman and the Sword. By. rupert
Lorraine. Published by y. c. McCiurg
& Co, Chicago.
The opening scene of this book is in
Il rural English community, and the
return of d soldier of fortune 10 his
ancestral home IS seen. He is the
guardian of q wayward nephew, who
is gambler and II rake. The soldier
brings this nephew up with round
turn and demands a reform of his life.
He has TO adopt severe measures. and
also he has 10 appear very cruel 10 the
allianced Of this nephew, n young
woman of high social standing. who is
infinitely above that nephew, and who
has come TO despise him for his worth
leSsness. The soldier undertakes TO
force the marriage, but the girl VIII
have none OF it, and finally. in her
waywardness, she Is abducted by IN
attache of the German embassy in
London. The pursuit of the girl by
the uncle and the nephew form the
bulk of the story, II is a hearty ro-
nance Of the old school, right well
told, and with n fortunate conclusion
that was by no means TO be expected.
The fancy Of the girl for the soldier
becomes consuming fire in the splen
did service that he does in her behalf.
This sort Of romance is decidedly re-
treshing in contrast with so much OF
the murky immortality carried by so
many of the novels OF the dav. It is
a right good story.

A BALL-PI.AYER'S SUCCESS.

The short-step. BY Zane Grey. illus
trated by II Delay. Published by
A. {, McClurg IL Co, Chicago.
This is the story of a boy who is
determined to be base ball player
lie was al work at small wages, sup
porting his mother and a crippled
brother: finding that he was not likely
to make any progress working at six
dollars Il week, and being refused an
advance, he left his position and started
out TO play ball. It was a hard.
tborny road for him for long time
and he was reduced 10 great straits at
times, being called hoodoo and driven
from town to town as an object OF ex-
ecration and derision. However, he
finally caught on, but had to thresh q
few of his fellow players before they
would be decent TO him. In the end
all comes his way, and he achieves a
tremendous triumph. The work is writ
ten by DR.. Zane Grey, who was a pro-
fessional ball player himself, and knows
the game thoroughly. 1t is also evi.
dent that he knows how to tell what
he knows, which is a rare gift in it
self. The story is an interesting one
and good TO read.

This is an elaborate work, got up in

evidently from thorough knowledge, of
the lives, the pursuits, the dangers,
the industries and the commerce, with
tho mode of domestic life of the fish

hard life that those men lead, and
many widows and orphans are made

Of that country. and an indication,

REVIEWS OF BOOKS

plicjty, Handwriting, if not an index
TO character, is often very character
istic; and Swinburne's s handwriting
throughout his life was like that of a
schoolboy, Like a child's. his intelli-
gcncc was swift and clear But Ian
guage intoxicated him; swept on and
borne away by sheer delight Of verbal
and metrical artifice, he let's decora-
ton ovcrflood construction, and the
thought, what Rosctti in 4 much-quoted
phrase called the fundamental brain
work of poetry, can hardly sustain the
masses of its GORGEOUS arapery.'
