BOOKS MAGAZINES, Etc.
THE MARCH CENTURY—Is a good all around
number. Fiction includes no less than nine
short stories. The art in the number, besides
the many illustrations in the text, consists of va-
rious insets. The frontispiece is a reproduction
in full colors of a painting by George Inness, Jr.
There are four pages of the work of John S. Sar-
gent, and eight pages of Leon Bakst, the eccen-
tric Russian colorist. The nonfiction features
of the number include “What Have Women Done
With the Vote?”” “The Golden Temple of Am-
ritsar;”” “Origins of the American People;”
“The Next Step in Prison Reform;” “What
About Russia?” “Dublin,” an article full of inter-
est, by Brand Whitlock, Minister to Belgium.
The editorial department is devoted to a tribute
to the late S. Weir Mitchell, physician, novelist
and poet.
In the March number of Popular Mechanics
Magazine is an illustrated article written by Roy
C. Andrews, assistant Curator of Mammals, of
the American Museum of Natural History, in
which the whaling industry as it is carried on at
the present time is described and illustrated in
the greatest detail and with authoritative knowl:
edge of the subject.
It also contains an unusually large number of
illustrations, many of which are full-page photo-
graphs that tell the story of interesting events
and of customs in various parts of the world.
The continuation of the two series, “Curious Ve- | ;
hicles in Use the World Over” and “The Fire- |
places of All the World,” are particularly inter-
esting, introducing the reader to such contrasts
as that of the palanquin in which the high-caste
Hindu girl is carried through the streets of Cal-
cutta and the dog carts of the Netherlands, as
well as that of the Turkish merchant squatting
before his samovar in a crooked street of Bag-
dad, and the Navajo Indian cooking his meal
over an open fire in a mountain valley. The
world’s progress in many lines is reflected in the
318 articles and 359 illustrations of the March
number of the magazine. The usual amount of
good material, illustrated by sketches and dia-
grams, is included in the Shop Notes and Ama-
teur Mechanics departments of the March mag-
azine.
In the March American Magazine Mary Antin,
a wonderfully gifted young Russian Jewess, be-
gins a new series of articles entitled, “They Who
Knock at Our Gates.” In the same number
Hugh S. Fullerton, writes an article entitled
“American Gambling and Gamblers.” Ray
Stannard Baker, in his new department entitled
“Seeing America,’’ reports the new Chicago and
its progressive people. Other notable contribu-
tions are ‘The Autobiography of a Stingy Man;” |
“The Soul's Winning Fight with Science,” in
has produced nothing that renders man’s. belief
in immortality inconsistent; “How a Town Con-
verted By-Paths into Good Roads and Doubled |
Its Trade Territory’’ and “What Drink Did to
One Man.”
Fiction is written by Richard Washburn Child,
Edgar Allen Forbes, James D. Corrothers, Rufus
Steele and Maravene Thompson. Humorous se-
lections are contributed by Stephen Leacock and
James Montgomery Flagg. ‘Interesting Peo-
ple” and the Theatrical department are filled
with good things, and prize-winning letters are
published in the contest ertitled “What I Am
Most Afraid Of.”
