New Books Announced.

\ newsdealers circular recently re- ceived at the Newsstand, carries the information that two novels that have of late been holding the interest of the magazine reading public, will soon be on sale in book form The novels referred to are The Common Law by Robert W Chambers. which for several months has been running in the Cosmopolitan, and The Ne'er- Do-Well,o which has been appearing in Everybody's for about the same length of time.
 "The Common Law is in our opinion, one of, if not the very best of Chambers novels It is the story of a young girl, seeking employment as model among the studios of New York. The story opens with her meeting with the artist who employs her, and tells the tale in beautiful language of the mutual liking between the two, which gradually ripens into love. Valerie West, the model, though confesSing her love for kelly, her artist lover, who besides being a sue cessful painter, is the only son of an old, rich and aristocratic knieker- booker family, refuses to marry him through fear of estranging him from his family. She suggests that under the conditions and considering their great love for each other tLe marriage ceremony be dispensed with, and thus her artist lover be spared the necessity of introducing her to his family and home-life inti- mates, whom she fears will not re- ceiye her as an equal-prop0ses to sacrifice herself and become a member of the halfworld The story points a moral all the way through, and un- like too many of the latter-day novels, ends happily for all concerned, and does not leave bad taste in the mouth. The book is illustrated with fifty drawings by Christy, and Will be out on August ?.
 "The Ne'er- D0- We'll" by Rex Beach, is another story that catches and holds the readers attention. It is written in Beach's best style. being the story of young college graduate, the son of millionaire railroad mag nate, who in celebrating a college football victory in New York town. gets in bad witha private detective who is trailing St. Louis embelzler. Who manages 10 mix with the crowd of young men. Ina scrimmage which occurs at dinner party which is to wind up the nights carousal the de teetive disguised as a waiter, attempts to arrest Locke, lthe embezzlerl and k knocked down by Anthony. tthe hero,) with a champagne bottle and, IL k thought, is killed Anthony is taken in charge by Locke, who drugs him and places him on board a steam ship bound for Panama. registering him with the purser under his tLocke's) name. His adventures in the canal zone, where through the in- teryention of Mrs. kirtland whose acquaintance he has made on board ship, he Secures employment in the active work of digging the "big ditch, are graphically told. There is not a dull chapter in the book, and it IS the opinion of most of Beach's ad. mirers that The Ne'er-Do- Well" is the best story he has ever written.
