“Happy Hawkins,” a philosophical and loyal-hearted cowboy, is the unique and humorous character thru whose agency this story unfolds. Out of frank devotion to the motherless Barbara, daughter of his employer, he untangles her father’s life history and finds her mother who, upon learning of her husband’s deception practised in wooing her, had deserted her family. “Happy” reconciles husband and wife and incidentally removes unjust suspicions against Barbara’s lover, a supposed ranchman, who turns out to be an English earl.

“This report, undertaken by the Russell Sage foundation, and prepared under the direction of the Bureau of social research of the New York school of philanthropy, is an excellent illustration of the great field for work open to the Foundation and of the many ways in which it can be of social service.

“The book is useful rather than interesting: it seems a mass of quotations, of different lengths, rather than a continuous historical narrative, and some portions of it are unnecessarily dry. Prof. Watson has taken little pains to attract readers; his sentences are grammatically correct, but he allows himself to adopt, from time to time, in the writing of English, a style both cumbrous and inelegant.

A bookish young Londoner leases for the summer season a picturesque old castle on the English coast. He comes here for work and quiet but is soon involved in a series of strange happenings in which secret staircases and subterranean caverns play their part. The real owner of the castle, fleeing from his debts comes here incognito and he, the bailiffs, some charming young women summering in the village, a painter who is copying the old masters in the library, and the old servitors ranged against the men who are scheming for the possession of the castle and its caves contribute to an interesting story of love and adventure.

Of the noddy terns there were about 1,400 adults, while the colony of sooties numbered more than 18,800. The food and the feeding habits, the courtship, nest-building, care, and external development of the young, and the entire daily activity of both species are minutely described, each phase of study being subdivided, and an excellent summary given of each.”—Nation.

In quantity the volume is not large, and in quality it would add little to Mr. Watson’s just fame—for the poems are generally slight—but for one that immediately became the most famous poem of the year, that which denounces ‘The woman with the serpent’s tongue.’”—Ind.

The volume closes with twenty-three rules for the economy and training of the memory.

“Much definite information is given on particular points where the merely empirical adviser is quite at a loss. Moreover, if the book did no more than free the ordinary adult from that excessive distrust of his memory, which is so bad in effect, and is, perhaps, too optimistically believed by Mr. Watt to be quite ungrounded in fact, it would be abundantly justified.”

The story of a young woman’s love for a married man, her disillusionment and struggle to forget the horror of her experience. A book whose bold handling of human passion entirely unfits it for general library use; altho one agrees with the belief of the author that no woman who has sinned is justified in relinquishing her claim upon a virtuous future life.

=Webb, M. de P.= India and the empire: a consideration of the tariff
problem, with an introd. by Sir E. F. Law. *$1.20. Longmans.

8–22575.

“The burden of the present discussion is in effect the perennial question of British free trade versus preferential tariffs. The author appears as an ardent supporter of the Chamberlain policy of preferential tariff as best calculated to promote the general welfare of the empire. In fact he openly takes the stand that only by a system of preferential tariffs can Britain avert the inevitable fate of becoming a second or even third rate power, with the loss of its important colonial possessions.... Mr. Webb, both in his text and in the appendices, however, does demonstrate the importance of Indian trade and that so far as India alone is concerned her best interests would be materially promoted by the adoption of an imperial commercial policy.”—Ann. Am. Acad.

* * * * *

“Whether he makes out his whole case depends largely on the personal leanings of the individual reader toward the tariff issue. In analysing the tariff problems, the author was led into a very full survey of India’s commercial relations, a fact which gives the volume decidedly greater value as a book of general utility.”

A multi-millionaire who owns a lot of the stock sees a chance to turn a trick in high finance, and makes ready to squeeze out the original stockholders and buy in most of the stock himself before it is known that the property has become a gilt-edged investment. The ex-newspaper man determines to undermine his scheme, and the two have an exciting battle of wits and expedients, in which nature also takes a hand with some spectacular performances suited to a sub-tropical island.”—N.

quarto edition of the Merriam series; W. T. Harris, editor in chief,
F. Sturges Allen, general editor. $10. Merriam.

9–25402.

This edition containing 400,000 words and phrases, is practically a new dictionary altho it is a revision of Webster’s International dictionary of 1890 and its supplement of 1900. For convenience each page is divided into two sections, the lower one in smaller type containing minor words, foreign words and phrases, and abbreviations. All the lists, except geographical and biographical names, formerly given in the appendix, are incorporated in the main alphabet. Following the rule that a dictionary should record existing usage, simplified spelling forms are not given unless they have been generally adopted, but words originating in slang which have passed into common usage are freely introduced. The inclusion of encyclopedic matter makes the dictionary a storehouse of information that records the very latest advance in all departments of knowledge.

“The writer of prolegomena, no less than the historian, must, amongst other things, be detached from the controversies of the century, unprejudiced, and endowed with exceptional powers of intellect; wherefore we are unable to discover a justification for the volume before us.

He talks of ‘the disease battle’ of the Isthmus and he writes enthusiastically of ex-President Roosevelt’s visit to Panama.... Diagrams show us how the work progresses, a crowd of illustrations brings the place and the work before our eyes and Mr. Weir has no good words for those who decry the Gatun dam....

“Written for the unqualified beginner. Mr. Weitenkampf, as curator of prints in the New York public library, knows as no other man the many interests, mostly non-aesthetic, that centre about a collection of prints, and, while his own taste is trained, he gives to each popular motive its due place in his book. For readers moderately well informed on these matters his manual will seem diffuse and roundabout. But it is not written for them. The diffuseness is merely that of the patient mentor who by repetition, illustration, and apt dilution must make his lesson clear.”—Nation.

She forsakes her home in order to study biology in a London laboratory. She tries to make her way unaided but finds herself financially helpless and discovers how at the mercy of man a woman really is. This leads her into the suffrage movement and ultimately to jail.
