Rfehard Gordon.
This novel by Alexander Black does
not lack for variety and action In a
multitude of spheres. The beautiful
heroine who has sinned, the vtlllan
who is thwarted, the bits of Bohemia
from the studio of artists, the masked
ball of the four hundred, the lawyer
who unravels the mystery, the hero
who dips Into Tammany politics, the
adventure with the pretty soubrette
In the beer-garden, the dash Into the
war with Spain, the rascal who be
trays his sister, the final make-up with
the girl In his arms all of these
scenes snd more are depicted in
words of force and originality. No
one will complain at not getting his
money's worth in this' novel. The
story is laid in New York and has a
vein of humor and freshness that goes
fsr to make good the somewhat
strained effort to get a plot out of a
difficult situation. D. Lothrop Co..

The Romance of the Commonplace
dvance sheets reveal the most ser
ious work yet undertaken by Gelett
Burgess and that Is not serious
enough to hurt. That there should
be another ami abler Charles !.amb
among us would surprise no one If
only we had the background of tradi
tions favorable to his production. Mr.
BurgeM Is lightly, playfully humorous
except when he attempts the serious
and become a roaring farce. As
when ho speaks of sexual passion,
"once rightly thought of as exquisitely
beautiful" but now being debased "into
the category of the beast." The fact
remains that in Its moral attitude to
ward the sexual passion the "beast"
is not delisted to the human stand
ard and Mr. Burgess has his morality
a trifle Inverted but that is nothing
strange for a humorist, the author of
the poem on the Purple Cow and the
immortal Chewlnggum Man. In these
essays the author alms mostly at a
cleverer, kindlier humanity and his
work Is along right lines of progress.
He aptly tlnds two things safe from
the bias of custom youth nnd lovo.
"To tho child, the mudplle has inflinite
possibilities of bliss. To the one
come eternal beauty, to the other
eternal mystery. The truth is the re

Some Children Poetry.
It. H. Russell. New York, has Just
"Mr. Sun and Mrs. Moon," a volume
of delightful poems of childhood by
Mr. Le Gallleune. The book has buon
favorably comitared with Robert Lewis
Stevenson's "A Child's Garden of
Verse." and its high poetic quality
Justifies the comparison. These
poems are marked by beauty and
that has commonly been ascribed to
tli e author. The book Is charmingly

"How to Attract the Birds." by
Neltje Blanckan. author of "Bird
Neighbors" and "Nature's Garden." is

& Co.. with a great number of ex
traordinary photographic illustrations.
Several of these intimate and sug
gestive chapters have appeared In
Country Life in America aud The

they form an unique work on the al
most untouched subject of "making
friends" with, "bird neighbors" to
whom the author has introduced so
many thousands of readers.
