C. Merrlam Springtield. His friends in this city will be Interested in his important iid scholarly work; which is by no means a reiteration the many disputations in regard to vailous readings and lexis of Shakespeare; but exhibits liow the pervrted taste of the Eighteenth Century led to perversion of the Elizabethan plays, changing them to lit the fashion In WLtds. and the so-calied unities of lie di-ama. The author finds many words in again which were stricken out of Shakespeare's lines by the purists, as obsolete.

The technical purist la however quite generally liable to over-insistence on the letter, and when he smiles at Shakespeare for making I-lgarius boast: "I will strive with things impossible; yea, get the better of them." he would repeal the license-law Ethical and Hn moron Subject raiwd In Warm Weather to stop when he has said enoughhis picturing of wild wastes of sea and shore would be almost unrivalled. His Sands of Pleasure re the insecure and shifting reaches on the coasts of Venusburg, and his book is less a story than an analytical biography and philosophical sermon on a subjvct which he frankly concedes "good tasle has decreed shall not be written or read about in books designed merely for entertainment." His attempt Is to represent "the collision of influences of the sane mind with what is socially insane." Whether the very sound mind of the engineer and lighthouse builder. Richard, remains sane in Paris of hyperbole, and with it bar much poetic eloquence. We enjoy more his comment on a London Times obituary (of Baron Dowse): "A great Irishman has passed away.

Like many another poet's his most stirring songs are h's Simgs of War. In "A Mother of '9S" he very nearly sitinds the depths of that leeling which ir prot.ably the most overwhelming of all ar'a passions: "He takes with him the light of May; MARK XLV11 40-45 H. P.

There are few more relish-able mistakes than that in "President Harrison's message, as originally i'livered, congratulating Con. gress that "the I'nited States are at peace with all the world, and sustain amicable relations with the rest of mankind."

Dowd. author of Vacation Verses. G. Badger, Boston. The design of a school text-book limita the list of flowers described In this convenient hand-book to the blossoms one can find In the spring and autumn school terms, no notice being taken of the flowers which open in July and August.

With a classification by families of plants and an index, the book Is a useful one in the hands of a teacher whl knows the flowers she finds; the descriptions being well written for calling the attention of pupils to interesting and distinctive beauties or peculiarities In flowers. But the omission of vacation flowers, the absence of illustration, and the want of a color scheme or other means ot direction for looking up a flower one has found, makes the volume worthless for a field book in the absence of a good is relieved by occasional dry wit; as witness Richard's sailing directions for an The Men We Are Is noble tribute to them whose "hazard Is life or death." and the Soldier Ideal jiptlfles and glorifies the "Work that Is crowned with "If the life of ease be noblest, If the highest gain be gold; If that be grace which Is won with shame.

Y. $1.50. The mechanical part of the book-making of this volume, its print, the many excellent illustrations on Its 477 large pages from photographs by Earl Wel-ler, Its smooth yet unglossed paper, is a credit to the publishers. A sketch, rather than a history, is given of each of perhaps forty towns, from Saybrook to Windsor and Wetherstleld in New Hampshire. Much interesting detail appears In these sketches, but not well authenticated or full.

The author has a scant sense of proportion, and sometimes seems to be ac- mated by some other motive than that of historic values, or a reader's interest. at the Kat Mort.

The hair stops falling out and A ROCK IN THE BALTIC, by Robert HOW FERNS GROW, by Margaret Slosson. Henry Holt New York. Among the numerous books on ferns this octavn volume of one hundred and fifty pages stands conspicuous for the thorough sclent'ric treatment ot a few easily ob-tainan varieties, and a full account of the development of the mature, spore-bearing leaf in accordance with Its venation more or less incised and segmented from its first sprout'ng from the parent spore or seed, and while yet attached to the prothallus. The conscientious method of the author is most obvious in that she describes, and illustrates with forty-six plates also her own work the different stages of the plant's progress as developed In speclments sowed and reared by herself. Many snb-varletles may be the result of abnormal or monstrous growth, under conditions which may be called too favorable.

From the overgrowth of a leaf new serration takes place, and lesser leaves form on the edges of the normal leaf, in some such manner as was produced the fern known by the florists list winter as "the a probable "sport" from "the Boston." When a "monstrous leaf," proves fertile; the growth from lis spores tends to develop the same monstrosity or Barr.
