otters great opportunity for this, for
faw cltlca ara blaaaad with happier aur
roundlnga for children. 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,

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. But Mr.
McCutcheon doesn't tell ' a story that
way. He Introduced his characters

aporty club, where the men and women
discuss tha engagement of Eleanor
Thuradale and tha Englishman, Windom

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. The book it

Just Kicked at a Cat.
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. The kick
