The Blue Bonnet series consists so
far of the two novels named. both
lively, entertaining stories of young
girls active outdoor life in Texas.
The authors, Mrs Caroline Elliott

have written the present book, "Blue

high in the class which the book oc
cupies. We commend it as right

This Is IL series of rather slenderly-
connected stories beginning with a
boy on the Labrador Coast, who goes
TO sea, deserts his ship, which pres
emily sinks, and gets far better berth
in another ship that is in sight across
the ice foe. The boy journeys TO many
parts OF the world. and sails many
seas, but finally brings up on the
Texas coast and takes on cowboy
life, working northward constantly,
and finally landing in British Columbia,
where be leads life remote, and rich
in memories and in growth Of virile
manhood. He. as cowboy, has a
dreadful matrimonial experience, aud
on getting rid OF that takes on another
matrimonial experience that is alto
gether happy as between the two, as
long as the happiness can last. But
the cloud comes, disruption and final
restoration. 1t is all very strongly
told, and the author Of ga Man in the
Open draws strength, resource. and a
goodlv activity from the materials
which he utilizes. The stories are all
excellent, and as whole the general
story is superb

HEALTH FOR GIRLS.

Health sod Happiness; a Message TO

Lecturer on Special ANATOMY. Physiol-
ogy. and Hygiene for Women, Chau-
tauqua School Of Physical Education
Illustrated by Helen Muheron Pub
lished by Funk & Wagnalls Company,
New York.
This is n book in general OF the
routine order with some later addi'
tions of value, The illustrations are
such as we have been familiar with for
many wears. and the injunctioDs in
general are such as every one knows.
A curious contradiction in illustrating
positions OF the body. seated, is noted
as between what is called a very
bad seating posture on page Sc com
pared with what is called perfect
symmetry on page is in an antique
bas relief. The message to girls, how
ever, is meant in the best possible
spirit, and its iuiunctions are beyond
criticism.

Little Is Utilized.

OF course there are some saw mills
at work and something in the way OF
timber gathering is going on all the
time, but the total extent of IL so far,
when used in connection with such a
term as deforestation, has an amusing
sort of sound.
There are actually places here miles
in extent where il is questionable II
four.footed animals could get through
without taking great deal of time to
it. and naturally the bipeds of the
earth would have much more diti-
cult time making their way. The roads
through the mountains have been
made by cutting away enough Of
the growth TO enable travellers to pass,
generally leaving the trunks where
they fell to become dry, and
eventually to rot, without being used
for any purpose whatever. In one
hours drive, which, it may be
imagined would not be at very great
speed under any circumstances, a per-
son passes enough drv timber lying
there for anybody to take that wants
il to supply the state OF Utah with
kiudling wood for thousand years.

worth all a person s trouble and the
expense it may incur TO 90 and see.
It makes him feel entirely different
from what he did before. He is con
fronted with actual sublimity in it's
natural form and made to realize that
all that he sees as the work Of man
is but trihing in comparison.
Now, it would not take a great deal
to make of this region resort as at
tractive as that of the California Yo-
semitic. 1t needs but ommodations
adjacent TO tho view places and some
improvements on the roads, which will
come in time.
The people Of Cedar City and ad-
iacent points are quite willing TO do
their share towards making these places
accessible and attractive, and the ex-
cellent fishing to be had in the streams
of the mountainous region, and IN
places the game to be found, ought TO
make il an attraction that could scarce

Attractions for Tourist.
The tourist can do DO better. He
can take the train at any point along
the Salt Lake Route, disembark at
Lund, and thence. by auto. or any
other form of transportation he might
see fit TO engage. which can be done
beforehand, reach Cedar City in a
short time, where he can easily and
reasonably make arrangements for the
rest Of the trip.
There are great many land and
irrigation schemes in progress of devel'
opment here. some Of them actually
developed. Others will follow. The
soil is naturally rich and productive
and is so situated geographically that
immense farming districts can be es
tablished. The yield in every case OF
grain, hay and vegetation of different
kinds is very profitable. More would
be grown if there were means of get
| ting it to market without such great
expense as the people have TO incur
| now.
And this does but accentuate what
must have been mentally suggested
previously. the need Of railroad in
the community. Such road would
be a paying proposition from the be
ginning. It could be built more cheaply
than any line for a similar distance
anywhere else in the state. From Lun6
TO Cedar City the grade would occupy
