SPORTING FIREARMS OF TO-DAY
IN USE. BY Paul A Curtis, Jr. e.
p. Dutton & Co.
~ NE of the deficiencies in the
I world of books in recent
~ years has been works on
sporting firearms, mankind in gen.
eral having been too much interested
in war and its aftermath to pay
much attention to shooting for sport
and certainly too much concerned
with other things to write books
about sporting weapons. The result
of this is that the old standard works
on shooting are decidedly out of date.
while more recent ones are mostly
composed Of the catalogue data of
firearms manufacturers brought to-
gether and illustrated with familiar
illustrations Of weapons from the
same source.
In view of this fact Capt. Curtis's
new book win be very welcome to
sportsmen who shoot upland birds.
waterfowl and bigger game in this
country. AS the shooting editor Of
Field and Stream Capt. Curtis has
been confronted daily with the prob
lens and pleasures of shooting for
sports sake, and, moreover. he has
done a considerable amount of game
shooting of all kinds himself. SO that
the need Of such a work as he has
written must have been as long ap-
parent to him as to other sportsmen.
And he has been wise enough in pre-
pairing his text to confine himself to
his subject-that is, to the most
modern weapons and the most popu-
lar controversies over them that
have been waged in the immediate
past in sporting periodicals. He also
devotes more space to the shotgun
than to the rife, for, as hasays, there
are ten shotgun shooters to every
rifleman hunting, and the rifle is
more definitely known. The shotgun

New Fiction

MAURICE GUEST-By II. n. Rich
ardson. Duffield & Co.
KR. HUGH WALPOLE pro-
M vides a preface Of explana-
ton and appreciation for
the American edition Of this novel,
which was first published in England
in 1908 and is now exhumed for the
edification of a new generation of
readers. He is justified in calling it
remarkable novel," and there is,
probably, some truth in his further
claim that it has exercised consid-
cradle influence upon the writer's,
especially the younger writers of
England. although it has never had
any popular success. As to that, one
may doubt whether it will ever have
a very wide appeal, or attain any
vogue in the circulating libraries.
Hildegarde Hawthorne has well said
that while the presentation of the
neurotic, the abnormal, the patho-
logical in fiction is entirely legiti-
mate, most of us nevertheless have
our preferences as to subject matter.
1t is wholesome human tendency
to shrink from the deformed and
ugly, in fiction as in life.
This book is an entirely legitimate
study of the abnormal, as Mr.. Rich
ardson sees, pretty clearly, that his
people are abnormal, and does not try
to make US believe that they are
anything but unhappy exceptions. a
small, unfortunate class. Sometimes
he comes perilously near to giving
one the impression that his Louise.
the tragic heroine of the story, is
intended to represent, more or less
comprehensively, the Ewigweibliche.

and intrinsically true. It Is also well
to have the earlier pictures Of the
