The Vice-Admiral of the Blue, by Roland Burnhom Mollneua, published by O. W. Dil lingham Company, New York. Price $1.50. This story Is 'a protrayal of Lord Nel son's devotion to Lady Hamilton, a fas cinating and beautiful woman, although very loose morally. Some. of the scenes are very strong, especially the escape of Lady Hamilton from a dungeon under the Royal residence at Naples. Lord Nel son's treatment of "his wife will not raise him la the. reader's estimation. In Mr.' Molineux's second bid for the attention dl the book-reading world, -he displays an improvement on the terse and bitter style of "The Room with the Little Door." His last volume Is well written. Its sub ject Is historical but Interesting, and the p'ubllc will undoubtedly persist in reading between the lines an -account of Mr. Molineux's mental attitude toward his former wife. Nutshell Notices. The Pool In the Desert by Mrs. Gollard Cotes (Sara Jeannette Duncan), published by D. Appleton & Co., iew Xork. Price 11.50.

Among the Great Masters of the Drama, by Walter Rowlands, published by Dana, Estes & Co , Boston, This Is the sixth volume In the Great Masters' Scries. The text Is bright and entertaining as well as being distin guished by wide and acurate scholarship. There arc 32 halftone reproductions -of fa mous pictures, representing scenes In the lives of eminent actors and dramatists. there are entertaining games and stories, J and for the housewife many practlcaisug. gistions In cookery and other departments of the home, for the Christmas season. Ainslee's for December. J "A Girl of Today," is the title of the novelette In Ainslee's for December. It is n. Jitnrv ft thft fCffar "Vnrlr "i(t" "with : plenty of action, a good dash of drama. written -in a charming style. Its author Is Elizabeth Duer. A thoroughly character tetlo story Is "A Suburban Christmas." and the fact that Charles Battell Lodmls Is ttie author is "a guarantee that it is amusing. Ralph Henry Barbour has an attractive love story, ,wlth a Christmas setting, in "I Find the Princess." Jose phine Dixon, whose clever novelette, en titled "Money and Matrimony," will be remembered by Ainslee's readers, con tributes a Southern love story, entitled "Midwinter Madness."

"The Defect In Felix." is a Christmas lbva story of the Bohemian set of New York, by Kate Jor dan, whose novelette, "Time, the Comed ian," created a sensation in the March Ainslee's.

Henry, and Its name is "A Chaparal Chrlsma3 Gift" "Stella and Stockings," by Ethel SIgsbee Small, Is a love story, the name of which nas seasonable suggestions. An army story with a strong heart Interest, is "Two Men and a Girl," by Oscar King Davis. What appears to bo another new de partment devoted to .theatrical discus sions, is Inaugurated with an article on the opening of the New York season. It is bright, chatty and discriminating. "A Glimpse at the Theaters," by Acton Davles. (Ainslee Magazine Company, 156 Fifth Avenue, New York. 15c.) THE EIGHTS OF BABIES. I IN THE REALM OF BOOKS j The Forest, by Stewart Edward White, with 18 full page draw trips by Thomas Fogarty. I LOO net. The Outlook Company, New Tork. "The Forest" is a dangerous book. Upon Mr. White, who wrote it, and upon the Outlook Company, which sends it abroad to infect thousands of hearts, rests a heavy responsibility. Indeed, if the time of publication had been six months later there is no saying what would have hap pened. The feet.of the young men would have made a vast shuffling and rustling throughout the country, as desks were abandoned for canoes and pens were cast aside for axes. Yes, "The Forest" Is dan gerous; do not read It on a fine day or you will find yourself as anxious to hit the trail as a setter la to accompany the guns. The best criticism of the book is to be found In the "Apologia" at the end. Mr. White says it is intended to suggest rather than describe. Add that is the secret of its. charm. We picture our own trail on pur own lake from the sentences before us. Our attention Is not strained by the effort to remember the dry. precise details that some writers pile up In tedious de scription; ratherj the fancy is brought Into play. There is no particular sequence about the essays that make up the "Forest" They are like so many alluring flies, with no more orderly arrangement than that given by tho covers of the fly-book. Each Is attractive. Even the names such as "The Science of Going Light," "On Lying Awake at Night" "On Open Water Canoe Traveling," "On Flies" are as enticing as , those mentioned by Mr. White In one of j the chapters. J The "Forest" Is a dangerous book. If ' you have business In the city, avoid read ing it toward that time of the year when i the "red gods make their medicine agGln."

For the children They Are Definitely Formulated In a New York Hospital. In New York there Is a babies' hos pital with a system In baby nurture that Is credited with the responsibility of revo lutionizing the methods for caring for babies all over the world. Its Influence has drifted across the At lantic and midway in the Pacific and to Australia, so thajt It promises to be come historic in,the annals of babydom. In Its site rriarked by architecture less modern than now the babies' declaration of Independence was formulated twelve years ago, The preamble wa3 brief and pointed: "Babies have some rights." After this came some principles. Regular feeding. Don't spoil us then spank us. Give us commen-eense clothing. Don't Interfere with our amueements. i Try to learn our language. Our cries have a meaning. keep our hands and feet warm. Don't puzzle our heads with numerous and Intricate toys. Don't make us show off before company. If you do these things we will promise: Not to keep you awake all night by crying. To srow fast and keep healthy. Not to annoy you by displays of temper.

Divina Commedia. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Oft have I een, at some cathedral door, A laborer, pausing In the dust and heat Lay down his burden, and with reverent feet Enter, and cross himself, and on the floor Kneel to repeat his paternoster o'er; Far 6 It the noises of the world retreat; The loud vociferations of the street Become an undlstlngulshable roar. So, as I enter here from day to day, And leave my burden At this mlnstec gate. Kneeling In prayer, and not ashamed to pray. The tumult of the time disconsolate To Inarticulate murmurs dies away, Wh.il the eternal ages watch and wait. LAIRp & LEE'S GREAT PUBLICATIONS Hih Grade Fiction and Usehil Household Books.
