THE POlITICAL AND ECONOMIC
 DOCTRINES OF JOHN MARSHALL"
 By John Edward Oster, A. M, u. T,
 The Neale Publishing Co, publish.
 CTS, New York.
 There are many new flea lures in John Edward Osters "The Political and Econ omical Doctrines of John Marshall." that have never before been brought out-such as the hitherto unpublished letters of the great chief justice, his speeches, and the cream of his great decisions. One of these decisions. perhaps his greatest (Afarbury vs. Madison). which is given in full, shows his method and his deep insight into even the smallest details of the law. The let
 ters show the workings of Marshall S mind perhaps even better than do the decisions. They show his prejudice. his pride, his strength, his weakness and re- veal Marshall as he has never been known before to anybody.
 This compilation clears away both the obscurities of his decisions that are ob-
 scure and the obscurities of the man. The reader of this volume will discover here for the first time that the great chief justice in addition to being seer of the la " was very human creature with rare gifts that have not been credited to him
 by either the living or the dead. Fully to understand his decisions. one must un- derstsnd the man. Undoubtedly many of
 Mars halls decisions, however sound and great, were influenced by Marshall's prej- udices and passions.

"OUT OF WORK


 CA STUDY OF UNEMPBOYMENT.'' . ) By Frances A. Keller. G. P. Putnam s Sons, publishers. New York
 A searching analysis of unemploy- ment in America-its extent its causes and especially the means by which it can be relieved, is exploited by Frances A. kellor in Out of Work" The book is significant because it Is not an academic study written in a library and based only on labor reports ard statistics; it is laboratory product. based on direct personal knowledge of The conditions Of Americas labor mar ket. It is also refreshing because if is not satisfied to point out long -win6ed means of preventing unemployment to slow-moving official hodies; this book lrakes specific suggestions for imme- diate aid. which every individual ent- iloyer, every industry, and every or- hcial body in the country and every public citizen can begin at once to put into operation.

THE PSYCHOLOGY OF MATTER

lslNih.
 "AS SHOWN IN HIS DREAMS By Granville Forbes Sturgis. Richard c. Badger. the Gorham Press, pub fishers, Boston.
 In The Psychology of Maeterlnclx' the author has made an attempt to
 humanize the plays of this master dra-
 matic poet He has reduced 10 their
 simI lest terms the underlying motives and mental traits of the characters sketched in the dramas. and has sue- ceeded fin making them stand out as realities. rather than dream people
 shrcudded in wells of mysticism. The
 plays have been grouped and analysed according to their emotions. In niak-
 ing the classification, the group of the emotions as laid down by Prof. Thee
 dore Ribot of Paris has been largely followed. In a separate portion of tue 1 ook the author has told the story of
 each play, developing the plot with
 reference to it's relation and sequerce
 in scenes and acts as written by Mae
 ierlinck. This feature makes 1t val
 ble book to all students of Maetef |, finch, for one quickly refreshes his
 memory of each play without requiring
 to have that particular play at hand.
