Sympathetic Tales.

HELEN OF TROY: and ROSE. BY Phyllis Bot
tome. Illustrated 12mo. pp. 267. The Century
Company.
Miss Bottome has here written two
charmingly sympathetic tales Of the
romance and happiness of married life,
with the same sure, deft touch and
vivid power of characterization that
won SO great favor for her former
works. Although the two together fill
less than the space of an ordinary
novel, there ib in each of them as
much real interest as in the average
three volume romance, though without
the slightest appearance of over-com-
preston. To them we might apply,
adapted, the words of Scott:
One crowded hour of glorious life
Is worth an age without name.

1t was beautiful and appropriate
thought of Mr.. Crandall's to make this
little collection of his own patriotic
poems and war songs a memorial to his
son who fell at the Second Marne-
one of three whom he gave to the great
war. In his dedicatory lines he says:
Brave knight, Bright Soul. FAREWELL
Yours was the Deed. mine but the feeble Word.
Hearea's voices. calling oer that awful hell

Innumerable readers will be glad to
have in this attractive form the vari-

which have greatly delighted them on
their appearance from time to time in
periodical literature; not least of all

Navigation and
Nautical Astronomy"

THE eleventh edition of Prof. ]. 81. c.
Il Collins Navigation and Nautical
Astronomy appears in a revised and en-
larged form, under the editorship Of FL
mer B. Collins of the Navy Department.
TO keep abreast Of the changed methods
of solving navigation problems it has been
necessary to revise net only the text and
examples in the work, but to change the
chapter on the Sumner line and add a
chapter dealing with all the cases in the
New Navigation.
The definitions in the Cofin-Collins's
text are admirable for their elearness and
simplicity, and among them we noticed
the word '1eeway," which seems to have
been overlooked in Bowditeh, possibly for
the reason that it is too well known. The
exposition of the St. Hilaire method IN
the chapter on Neu Navigation is excel
lent; In fact, nowhere in this new edition
of well known book in its field is there
overelaboration Of explanations or def
nitions.

Dead Mems Shoes, by Gordon Hall
Gerould, in Scribner'S, is well written from
the technical standpoint, but it leaves the
reader cold The characters are mechani-
cal figures whose well bred tempers and
incomprehensible struggles and adjust

variety.
The Hunting Of Bud HolOland, by Cal
win Fl. Luther. also in Scribner's, is good
study of Western cowpuncher, given
with brevity and interest. 1t is better
than the majority of the o. Henry stories,
though that is not the extravagant praise
which the most ardent 0. Henry admirers
might consider it.

stranger who comes TO the little
community from more preten-

tender of sheep he becomes a

CLARK IN

Marguerite Clark again pleases her
many admirers in a war play that
has been revised 10 suit peace con-
ditions. As the title indicates much
OF the story is devoted TO food sub
jects. but as Marguerite turns her
attention 10 chicken raising, with
many humorous incidents, IL is not
bit tiresome. She instills pa
triotism and a desire to work into
a sleepy southern village and finds
a romance with handsome Eugene
O'Brien. who is working for the gov
crnment. The piece rolls along mer-
rily and is not any particular tax on
the dramatic ability OF any OF the
cast. Miss Clark recently became
Mrs. Lieut. Williams in private life,
and is evidently proud OF the fact,
for she wears her new wedding ring
all through the picture, regardless
OF it's fitness.
