A Garden Club

A garden club has been started near by, in colony where the country places are large and beautiful, and each woman has her hardy garden, with old-fashoned flowers galore. Men will discuss land scape gardening and forestry, and the women will report anything interesting that happens among their flowers, fruits and vegetables, for the kitchen garden is eligible for membership, too. AS the women have pledged themselves, for the good of their avoirdupois and nerves. to do a certain amount of work daily and with their own fair hands in their gardens, the data given will have the interest of first hand observations.
 That a club of this kind is very good for all concerned is more evident for it means healthy hours spent out of doors and healthy conversation. Love may grow among the roses but gossip never and the field of horticulture is wide enough for all to roam without tread ing too heavily on the others turf. All can get material for conversation from this common source without brewing jealousy or endangering friendship.

Clothed in Light

The latest London entertainer Is "clothed in light Indeed, la Deodima provides quite an original turn She is sprightly brunette, who stands against white background garbed in the cos- tune of a statue. To prevent the unclas- sical minded from being shocked. how ever, madamoiselle is clothed in the most vivid and various raiment by means of a magic lantern placed directly in front of her. All sorts of pleasing effects are thus obtained and the prudish suscepti- bilities of the nervous successfully saved. It is said to be a very pleasing enter tainment, and the little lady is quite pretty, and-if one may mention such thing-very shapely into the bargain.

Mademoise!:e Frou-Frou

The long. separate coats of satin or pongee. which are reversible, are really very cleverly contrived When made of black in combination with a color, the buttons, covered of either material, are used for trimming.
 The slips or aprons of fine lawn for the small daughter are cut kimono fashion. A narrow band of colored lawn complete ly outlines the garment, which is open under both arms. Small buttons and buttonholes fasten the apron under each arm. Sometimes a little hand work is placed just below the square neck in front.
 It is really difficult to believe that some of the garments shown as bathing

THE ROSE WITH A THORN. BY Pris-
ella Craven. With frontispiece. l2mo.
PIP. 49, d. Appleton e. Co.
The merit Of this tale of an Anglo
American marriage with curious but
quite probable antecedent testamentary
dispositions and many subsequent COM
plications lies in the fact that 1t is not
a comparative study of two civilizations
and the men and women they produce
but simply story. and a good one The
authors inventiveness gives many a
novel turn to subject no longer new,
from the introduction of an American
mother with far other than merely am
bilious interests to a cleverly introduced
difference In the points of view Of an
aristocratic English radical and a tradi-
ton worshipping daughter of our re-
public. Some Of the minor characters,
English and American, the reader has
met before, but the leading personages.
both men and women, are the authors
own to sufficient degree to keep up
the interest to the very end Of that mis-
understanding between husband and
wife which so often is the true begin
ming Of their love. The author is tech
nically sure Of herself: in short, this is
as satisfactory summer novel OF a
more substantial kind as one can wish.

FICTION
Novels of East and West, of Past
and Present.
IN OREGON.

THE LAND Chalmers. BY John Elem.
ing Wilson. With illustrations by Ar
thur E. Becher. 12mo, PIP. POI. Boston:
Little, Brown &; Co.
Mr. Wilson is already sufficiently well
known through his short stories, but this
is his first novel, and a good one 1t is.
HIS ambition has not overleaped itself;
he has not ventured upon too broad a
canvas, nor. on the other hand, at
tempted an infinitude of detail, but In its
simple lines the tale stands clearly be-
fore the reader, whose imagination and
understanding readily collaborate with
the author. This is minor fiction. to be
sure, but that genre stands badly in
need in this country of conscientious
practitioners. A San Francisco shipping
master, the terror of sailors, breaker
of men" as others are of broncos. is sent
TO the Oregon timber lands to regain the
health and strength ne has lost at last
There he is tricked into buying a worth
less land claim, and on discovering this
resolves TO get even with the swindler.
From the protagonist Of the story he
changes into its dcur or mGchinG In the
affairs of others, set Of well dfferenti-
ated characters. The hand Of the short
story writer is often perceptible in this
first novel, but Mr.. Wilson has made a
good beginning. He should DO we'll
