 Albert Bushell Hart in an 'introduc- tion" to Kelly Miller's very interesting book entitled An Appeal to Conscience,' [ outlines the policy and mission of the book in this manner:
 This book is written with excellent temper and an admission of difficulties which are very deep-seated if not ire movable. The main thesis is a protest against the application of one standard to black men and another to white men. That such discrimination exists is clear, and the evil consequences are well set forth. v
 "The merit of the book is its vigorous and well-stated appeal to reason. call for a just application of the moral prin- ciples of which America Is proud. It is logical, human, reasonable application of the doctrines of Christianity and of democracy"

"cA STE THREE. :"

By Gertrude NJ. Shields. Frontispiece in
 Color The Century Co, publishers, New
 York city.
 A fascinating story of small-town life in the middle west, told with vigor and verve and with the fresh touch or a new writer.
 Caste Threey is segment out of the life of Hewitt Stevenson, who begins by being young, pseudo-intellectual and un- social. Hewitt sojourns in Alston, In diana, because his father refuses to pay anything but agricultural school ex- penses, but Hewitt has other interests than those connected with the soil. So he relinquishes Chicago as A place of residence, and accepts Aston as neces- sary evil-until woman out Of Caste Three teaches him that the life led by Alston's leading citizens is very fascinat ing. She teaches him other things, too.
 Hewitt proceeds to investigate Aston sociologcally. and ends in forgetting to investigate himself. But by that time the ocean of intellectual achievement looks stormy and rough. On shore one Is at least sure of oneself and ones foot inc. Hewitt chooses.
 How and why he chose as he did is the story.
