Thurston's New Story iy One of Unusnal Power, LIGHT, PLEASING BOOK BY ALFRED AUSTIN He Takes Up Again the Ages Who Figured In Hix Pre- vious Storfes—Review of ame Person. March Magazines. “The Cirele,” by Katherine C. Thurston, | with illustrations by Reginald Birch, is a story of unusual power which opens in an obscure curfo-shop In London, where Anna | Solney, the 16-year-old daughter of an ex- | fle, is chafing bitterly against her enforced | solitude and fnactivity. When unexpectedly the opportunity so madly craved is offered | her—the chance to take an active place in the busy world—she finds that the condi- tions which accompany its acceptance are only a degree less cruel than those involved in its rejection. Eight years later she re turns,and to the girl standing in the shadows it seemed that the circle of life was com- plete. From the neutral tints she had passed through every graduated shade that existence can possess, revolving slowly p the falnt light tones of hope and expectation to the vivid colors of actual fulfillment, | then from the vivid colors steadily and in- evitably forward, to be confronted once again by grayness and shadow. The shad- ows pass, however, and the constancy of her lover eventually brings to Anna the realization of a rarely perfect love. Pub- lished by Dodd, Mead & Co In “The Haunts of Ancient Peace,’ the | British poet laureate takes up again the same personages who figured in his pre- vious prose storics, “The Garden That I Lo “In Veronica's Garden' and “La- mia's Winter Quarters.” Mr. Austin's lat- est book is a light, pleasing chronicle of leisurely traveling in England, visiting old inns, ancient houses, churches and espe- clally gardens. The travelers are soph ticated, well-bred English folks, unaccom- pavied by (&u or gulde books and cam- eras. Not a novel, certainly, yet the book may be classed as fiction, for its person- ages are imaginary and ils view of life is idealized. One who reads Alfred Aus- tin's prose soon perceives there i mos reason than his verses often reveal for his Alterary eminence. The book ie beautifully fllustrated by Edward H. New.

B. Warnock, is & story of many crimes. The author has con- ‘ured deep-dyed villains, who, accord- ing to his own theory, couldn’t really help being villains; they were born that way. An engagement between two young people 18 broken and the girl married to a forger, murderer and thief, who does many ple ent little acts in his chosen line of crime. The noble boy, Richard Hume, is an ex- pert in doing noble deeds in a wild, melo- dramatic way, and at last marries his for- mer sweetheart, whose former marriage proves to be false. Published by R. F. Tenno & Co. “Nature and the Camera,” by A. Rad- clyffe Dugmore, author of “Bfrd Homes, has just been published by Doubleday, Page & Co.

The style, easy and unpretentious, makes it admirably | adapted to beginners, while its narrative largely in dialogue form, affords many eub. jects for, conversational exercises.

The April issue onnecting Links" is the title of a new and very useful department of the Little Chronicle of Chicago, which shows in detail how to use the news fo teach language, geography, civil government and other school branches. The department is for the use of teachers and parents, but can be used to great advantage by anyone who wishes to get an cducation or broaden an educk:ton already well begun. People who read the newspaper almost wholly for en- tertalnment—to gratify a curiosity to know what Is “going on"—wlill be surprised to see what large results are obtained in teach- ing the various school branches by the use of the news as the educational medium. Both daily newspapers and newspapers Ik the Little Chronicle, which is especially prepared for schools, are becoming more and more widely used in teaching by what is called the “Current Events Method Those who have employed this method say that it is more thorough than the ordinary wethod and that it makes greater use of the text books and gets larger results in less time than has ever been done beforo by any system of teaching. That is a stirring and startling story which is being told in the Outlook under the title “A Fight for the City,” by Mr. Al- fred Hodder. The author is District Attor- ney Jerome's private secretary, and he tells fully and with dramatic power the true. story of the great fight with Tammany and the overthrow of Tammany's power. ‘The Western Teacher of Milwaukee, Wis., in response to a request for information of “‘some of the best recent publications on the trusts,” ranks first the articles now running in the Century.

A cough means a great deal to a young person, when there is a family history of weak lungs, with perhaps a case of con- sumption itself. Coughs weaken the tissues, congest the mem- branes, and prevent healing. Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral controls the congestion and inflammation, and the cough dissppears.
