A sufficiently detailed consideration of the history of th islands is given, not a an end In Itself, but by. way of furnishing an ade auate historical set tins for th present ay view of the archipelago and its Inhabitants: Its character and iia possibilities.

Mr. Wood says: But even when "th loved spots our Infancy knew" are physically the same, a change has com upon them more saddening than words can tell. They have shrunken and crown shabbier.

They ar not caarly so spacious and so splendid as ones they wer. They don't hav the things to eat they used to have, or If they, do. It all tastes different. Do you remember tb old well, with the wlnd Ism and the chain fnstened to th rope just about th bucket, the chain that used to cluc.k cl when the dripping bucket cam within reach to be swung upon the well curb? How cold the water used to be. right out of the northwest corner of the well.

It made th rnuf of your mouth ache when yon drank. Kverybvdy said It was such spiendld water. It Isn't so very cold these days, and I think It has a sort of funny fast to it. That quotation gives a taste of the quality of the book. It is ell delightfully Intimate snd somewhat pathetic, and the sort of thing you wouldn't talk over except with some sympathetic and under stsndlng friend.

And such a friend such a book as this should prove to many of the old timers who have pictures such as the book furnishes in their memories. It may not appeal much to the younger generation; to the oldsters it should be a greet delight. The volume is illustrated. (New York: McClure. Phillips St Co.) The Young Man and the World.

Senator Albert J. Beverldge'a book "The Young Man and the World" has Just been Issued, and the Impression one rets of It ts wholly favorable. In a short, pithy preface the author "telle of the genesis of th volume; bow It grew from sundry essays In a popular magazine, and he expresses the hope that the book may be helpful. II says: "While addressed more directly to young men. these papers wer yet written for men on both sides of th hill und on th crest thereof." For such repetitions as occur In th ssay, owing to th manner in which they were written Senator Beveridg apologise, but says ho thought it best to leav them aa they were originally written, saying: "Where It Is necessary to remember.

It Is better to be wearied than to forget." A volume of advice is likely to bs regarded, off hand, aa something pretty dry and rather to shunaed. but it must be said for this book that its style has the vigor and freshness of the personal conversation of its author; it is like an Intimate talk between friends; ita pages are timulatlnr, the whole messare of the hook la on of hopefulness and courage, and brave striving. It is hard to think of any young, or middle aged maa for that matter, readinr th essay on "Th Old Home'' without be Inr deeply touched. It is so often the pose of the modern younr man rather to despise the old home; to be afraid of showing any feelinr of lov or reverence toward nla mother; he fears that unless rets out from under th mother wing he will regarded as effeminate and soft. Senator Beverldge hows that there Is no influence so Do tent in this great repubUo toward maklnr th hlghast citizenship as the mother love.

Throughout his life Uncle Ebeneeser has been pestered to death by the relatives of hi dead wife. In full force they have gathered at his house every sum mer, and he has been powerless against them.

When he dlea he leavea his house to his nephew, a young man of parts, and th only on ot his relatives who has not bothered him. During tb first summer after tha succession this younr man and his wife ar forcd to entertain tho relative aa usual, and the author's description of that summer is full of fin humor. Ther is a good plot to the story and a striking denouement, which It would be unfair to the author to reveal. Suffice to say the disappointed crew of fortune hunters scurry out of the house and the neighborhood when that denouement.

slyly contrived by Uncle Ebeneeser before his death, develops. The story Is not a ghost story, but there is a "creep" or two in it which makes the humor all the better by contrast. One of the fine characters In the tale is Tiberius Claudiua. the black cat. The love interest: in the story, too.

The present book haa for Its hero one Mark Strong, a man who has risen from the ranks of the workers In coal mines, and it details th story of his bitter fierht agninst the Mine Workers' Union, after that union has mad a brutal and cowardly assault upon him.

Mr. Bsyne's poetry expresses many moods love and sorrow, triumph and despair; some of it strikingly good, some of it below the average merit of the magazine poetaster.

Poe esque verse that Is so easy to read and so hard tb write.

STREET FAIR AND DOG SHOW AT TRACTS THE PEOPLE. EVERYBODY HAD A. GOOD TIME (By fT. IL Blodgett, Staff Correspoadent The India oa polls 'rws.) MITCHELL. September SO.

This has been one of the busiest weeks In Mitchell's whole life. There has been something doing from early sunrise. Monday morning, and it will not be finished when the sun goes down this evening. One of the big things of Uie week was a street fair. The second big thing, and a thing about as big as the street fair, was a circus.

Thursday, the street fair brought more people to this town than were ever here at one time. More people than when Adam Beck Installed hla cemeiV. plant. and United States Senator Burton came from Kansas to mak a speech. On Friday Gentry's dog and pony show was here, and the crowd waa almost aa great aa It was the day before; many remaining over from Thursday to the show.

On of the in teresting features on was a bevy of Beautiful Bedford Belles, who captured a Monon train In their town and went to Mitchell to help the aun shine. When that crowd got on the train every seat was filled. As an example of how polite the Americana are, it can be said that the Bedford Belles were given seats at once. They took Mitchell by storm, and. according to reports tb next day, they had the best tlm of their live.

Th town haa been decorated week. and. aa souvenirs, the Bedford Belles took away with them many varl colored ribbons and a large collection, of masculine hearts. Good Town for, a Street Fair Mitchell la a good town to have a street fair In, beoaus it is wll laid out, and there is plenty of! room. The people, too, like to have a good time, and no cat vr visit Mitchell that goes away feeling sorry for the visit.

The attractions at the fair wer unusually good, and aeveral of the band boys had on new unltortna. That helped some. Of course, thr war gome things her that th general publlo did not see. For instance, th words that Oeorg McDanlela, of Bedford, tittered wbsn he found that big town dd not get the new hospital for the Insane hav ba pounded into brass and hang up vhtr th people of Lawrenoe ooanty eaa see them. Then the Munsonlte brand of politic, which Is so familiar to the popl of Mitchell, were laid away till after tb fair.

Tjtn. too, no announcement of th fact that United Stat Senator Burton, of Kansas, originated in this town, waa made.
