BOOK NOTES.
"Koradine" by Dr. Alice B..Stock
ham and Lida Hood Talbot, is one
of those stories that show as if in a
prophecy the beautiful development
of the soul, in an atmosphere of love
and wisdom.
The noted writer Helen Van Ander
son says or it, felt the petals 01
my soul open, while reading the
sweet story of Koradine," and this' is
the feeling of every one who follows
the development of this lovely girl.
It is a book every girl ought to
read, and the sweet uplift of its les
sons, are helpful to parents, in the
jmidance of young souls into the
higher development of the senses
Mrs. Stockham's fame as a writer up
on ethical and sociological questions !
is world-wide. The great Tolstoi is
said to have gotten the inspiration
for some of his greatest lessons from
her books. (
Koradine should be in the hands of
every mother who wishes to train her
ehild to always live in the upper story
of the being.
"Koradine." Alice B. Stockham
& Co., Chicago. Cloth, price $1.00.
"Karma," by Paul Carus is a
story in Japaneese binding, illus
trated in the quaint art of that fasci
nating people. . "
It is a story of early Buddhism,
that old, old religion that came into
existence in the earlier and higher
civilization of India. Life was less
complex then, and the motives of
Karma, desire or character, were not
covered with such a veneer of conven
tionalities as we find them now. It
was easier to find motives and ! give
direct help.
The story carries with it a strong
moral, showing the swift retribution
follovyrnga bad action, and the " swift
reward following a good one. If . a
child can be made to fully understand
this he has a good moral foundation
for life. The greatest praise one can
bestow on the story is to quote Tolstoi
who savs, "I read out this tale to
children and they liked it, and
amongst grown-up people, its reading
always gave rise to conversation
about the gravest problems of life,
and to my mind, it is a very good
recommendation.

"The Rock-a-By Land -and Other
Tales" by lhomas H. Arnold, is a
charming little book by a man who
evidently has a profound insight into
the emotional side of human nature,
and who is himself intellectually keyed,
to a sweet spiritual harmony.
He is said to be well known in Chi
cago literary ciscles, and it is a mat
ter of congratulation to lovers of
books, that he has given us what is
said to be some of his choicest liter'
ary work, in this volume.
Some of the sketches and poems
betoken that ' keen sense of humor,
that in combintion with the finer qual
ities of soul go to make up the literary
artist.

"The Story of Ab" by Stanley Wat
erloo is a romance in a purely scienti-
nc setting, ataniey Waterloo is one
of our best writers and in this fasci
nating book has had the assistance of
some of the most noted scientists and
anthropologists of America and Eng
land, and it is said to be the work of
many years deep study. It is a "Tale
of the lime of the Cave Man," that
morning time of the Earth, when the
emotions and the morals first began
to stir in the heart . of semi-arboreal
man.
A study of this book makas one op
timistic, for the perspective of this in
teresting picture of the race is such
that one can see the slow evolution to
have been upward, ever upward.
The tale is one of love and war, and
thrilling' adventure with the monstrous
animals and reptiles of pre-historie
times. - ' . . '- i
The appearance is strikingly attrac
tive. -It is finely printed and the cov
er isby Bradley, whose Resigns are un
ique and artistic. We predict a' great
success for it especially here ' in the
west where the demand is for some
thing outside of conventional themes.

The big and strong navy that Japan
is getting together isn't likely to be
used for ornamental purposes,
Senator Chandler xis one of the men
who talks silver quite vigorously, but
neglects opportunities 'to vote silver.
Senator Hanna always transacts his
political business under fear . of the
unwritten commandment.-' "Thou shalt
not get caught."
The second assembling , of the In
dianapolis Monetary Convention, ali
as goldbug bankers'; i lackeys, can
hardly be called a congratulatory
affair. "
Br er Talmage wants all the free
publicity he can get for . his pulpit
affairs, but when it came to marrying
wife number three he preferred pri
vacy. 7
All the money appropriated by
Congress for the relief of the Klon
dike gold seekers will .certainly be
spent, but whether the cold seekers
get any relief out of it is to be seen.
Boss Hanna seems to have used
cash, instead of checks, ind to have
avoided writing anything Criminating
by talking face .to face or oyer a. tel

ness with.

Superintendent McNall has been
figuring on the reports of - fire insur
ance companies. He finds that eleven
old line companies collect; from Kan

for every dollar paid back in losses
JNo wonder tnese companies can pay
big salaries to officers and soon be
come very strong and wealthy.
