beautiful as the plates portray them,

the threcscorc in the book. There are
others, too, who shrcwdly regard the
books as enough; arguing that havi1lA

fuller comprehension Of the beauty and
interest OF a distant state than they

Both are right, according to their
several tastes and abilities. Both arc
particularly right in this. that whether
they travel or stay at home. at any
rate they read these entertaining and

which We wish every American citizen

land. IN one Of the volumes before
us he would learn not to admire Switz-
land less but Colorado more: and in
tho other he would discover that the
charms OF the Riviera and Of Naples
ore amply rivalcd on the coasts Of
Florida. Nor would he merely be sat-
atcd with scenic spcndors, but he
would learn of witching romance and

the clements which, in almost niinlu

and which make each state seem more

We all knew and loved Ian. Mac
laren. and we arc getting to know
and love his son, for his own as we'll
as for his fathers sake. His former
writings revealed him as a humorist
Of spontaneous and novel charm. In
the present work he goes far beyond
mere humor, though he carries the
humor with him and never lets it
flag or fail. He here essays the full.
strong drama OF life, both comedy and
tragedy. with much character drawing
of contemporary life in the Scottish
Highlands. We are not sure. indeed,
that We have for many year met
with characters in fiction moro clear
~ defined. moro consistently individ-
ual. more thoroughly vital with human
sympathy and interest, than these. Nor
have VIC often, since Scott himself. read
Il Scottish romance pitched in a more
masterful key than this. There is
humor, always spontaneous and racy;
there is pathos that seems to wiring
blood drops from the readers heart
yet never becomes morbid or maudlin;
and there is hcroism that thrills the
soul with wild elation, yet never is
bombastic or mcIodramatic. 1t is a
book to be reckoned with in casting
up the sum of enduring fiction of oar
time.

We are for conservation; Of napcr

wherefore We object to the way in
which Mr. Gould expresses his rhapso-
dies. Thus:
Ogissin fell
and fell

and splashcd
and noatcd
and hoatcd
and noatcd
and sank
and sank
and sank
and was seen no moro.
That. doubtless, is superb literature.
We doubt if even collaboration Of
Bloodgood II. Cutter and Mary Mc1anc
could have surpassed it. It gives us
too, fine idea for criticism. For cX-

book of rhapsodIcs:
Fool stuff

and piNlc
and pitflc

But on patriotic grounds. we don't
believe in wasting ink. Wherefore, We
suggest that in the next edition "Thc

See wha. n lot of ink that would save,
Of course. There would still be tho
waste of paper. But that could be OBJ
