Not only la thara unlimited green for tha children to enjoy, but theae greens ara not fenced In and carefully preserved be cause of their scarcity and dotted every where with "keep off tha grass' signs. Pleasant spots for the children to play and enjoy "a day in tha green country are easily aocesslblt from all parts of the city. Prominent among them are the park blocks north of Couch street, where rope swings and chair swings are arranged under the trees, and ball grounds are laid out for the boys, and sand piles are provided for the tots. Hundreds of children visit these blocks svery dsy. A little farther away for most of them, and yet a perfect heaven quite get-attablo. is the city park, with its winding, walks. Hers children often spend the whole day taking their lunch, baskets with them. They swing in the 1 NEW BOOKS (Continued from Page Forty-eight) atory baa found its hero In tha boy who ran away' from parental or other guard ianship that waa oonaldared too strict, and took passage at Liverpool on a ves sel bound for Australia. There la the same crew aboard "The Flying Cloud" men of India, Kllngs. Malays, Sldl boys, the Scotchmen, the morphine-eating cap tain, the mate from Devon, and, as tha author savs. "Such a gathering of tur bans, rags, colors and brown and mud colored skins was fine to see." And he mlaht have added, just the same crew that has manned many a vessel In song and story, with the variations and in dividuality the author can bring into thftm. But here tha resemblance ends, for few have Mr. Roberts' facile pen or wonderful power of description.' These are never faulty and ara exquisite in their rusa-ed strensrth and faithful Dor tralture. The author has a remarkable faoultv for Injecting into his reader a capacity for feeling, and a close sym pathy with the forces of -nature he bends and weaves Into his story, wheth er It be the trade winds howling in his esrs as the ship goes scudding Derore them, or tha weariness and discontent and lethargy of the calm. This phase of Mr. Roberts' work is be von a criti cism, and Is so perfect It often hovers between Intense tragedy and poetic beauty, but when It comes to the hu man side of the story it grows coarse In its language almost to vulgarity, which Is greatly to be regretted, for otherwise he would take a high place In story writing for youthful readers. The book Is well bound, with suggestive cover design, and has a portrait of the author for frontispiece. I C. Page & Co. Price $1.60. "Ine Flyere" By George Barr Mo Cutcheon. The' atory Is characteristic of all tha author'e work blight, up to date, with plot enough to make it inter esting and life and humor to make it entertaining. It la a short story of a little more than a hundred pages, but large enough to contain two sets of heroes and hero ines, who manage to tangle' themselves Into enough complications for a 500-page romance and a Sequel later on.

Tha city plasa la another place that tie (GMi mm through the conversation at a rather aporty club, where the men and women discuss tha engagement of Eleanor Thuradale and tha Englishman, Windom shlre. In the presence of Joe Dauntless, who has always been In love with Elea nor. Incidentally they mention Miss Courtenay, the beautiful governess In the Thursdala mansion, and before the night la over the author has had Joe elope with tha lady of his love and Windomshlre and the handsome gov erness off on the same kind of a lark both pushing their machines to their ut most spaed to catch tha flyer, and when tha flyer pulls out both girls are aboard and their lovers panting and fierce on the platform, where their jealousy and nuarrallna- causad them to ha left. An engine was secured and Itath men went flying after the flyer, which luck had dstalned by an accident, but when they arrived more complications had srlsen, and so tha atory goes, until, like the tangled skein of silk, It all straightens out at once. The rich humor and occasional flashes of wit are the book's most attractive features, for it is one of those vivacious little stories thst act like a tonlo and make you for an hour, at least, throw the blues to the winds.

A clerk in the Pennsylvania railroad freight office In Jersey city suffered from spasmodic twinges in his right leg, which he attributed to rheumatism. He consulted a physician and spent a good deal for medicine, but continued to grow worse. One morning recently the offioe tom cat tn a spirit of friendliness arched his back and rubbed against the afflicted calf. The clerk gave a vicious kick with his bad leg and a gray streak shot through the air. He hobbled to a chair and sat down with a few stirring re marks about cats and rheumatism. A few minutes later he gritted nis teeth hard and arose. He shook his leg and feebly smiled. Then he walked like a drum major across the floor and boi- ims sterously shook hands with himself. The sharp twinges had disappeared and there has been no recurrence of pain. The clerk's doctor corrected his diag nosis when asked for an explanation of the sudden cure and said that what he mistook for rheumatism was crobably caused by a twisted ligament.
