The mar- . reloua talea that gathered for mor than g thousand years about tb* Is-! lands of tb* Atlantic wean are ntirel. I becaua* (he earlier historians disdained them, boasting of the barrenness and ' tb* llteralnesM of tbe American an nale. Tb* author says In his preface- ‘ The glamour of enchantment was first ai larhed by Europeans to island* within sight pf their own shores t\"elab, Briton or Siianlsh—and then as these islands became lietter known men s imagination carried the myatery I further out over tbe unknown western i sea. The line of legend gradually ei tended Itself till It formed an imagin ary chart for Columbus; the aged gp-j Honor tor. Toscarelll. for Instanee, sug gesting to him the advantage of mak-! lug tbe supposed island of Antlllla a half-war station; Just as It was pro-; posed, long centuries after, to find a ' station for the ocean telegraph in the, equally imaginary Island of Jtcquet.i which has only lately disappeared from the charts. With every *«*P * n knowledge, the line of fancied stopping places rearranged Itself, the fictitious names flitting from place to place on the maps, and sometimes duplicating themselves. Where the tradition Itself; has vanished, we find that the names with which it associated Itself are still assigned, as in the case of Brasil j and the Antilles, to two wholly differ- j cut localities. The tales In this collection begin with those connected with the Islrnds near the European coast, then those • n mid-ocean, and later those on the coasts of America. First come* the. j story of Atlantis, as told by Socrates; rtteti the Isles off the coast of Wales; and next the ocean eiplolts of the Cel tic hero and poet, Osslan, are describ ed. Merlin, the enchanter, and Vivian, are introduced In somewhat different | form from that known to the readers of Tennyson's Idyls of the King; end | the legends connected with the British , Islands, and the stories of Sir Lancelot of the Lake and of King Arthur at ■ Avolon are exquisitely told. Perhaps; one of the most noteworthy of tbe talcs Is that of the voyage of an Irish | knight named Maelduin, who stopped! at many enchanted islands, each one j more wonderful than the last, and. who i had many strange adventure potent . with meaning. There are a number of other Irish stories. In “AnitlUa. the Island of the Seven Cities,” is told the story of the young Spanish page who served Don Rodri go. Fiom the stories of the Vikings, those fearless explorers of the olden times, the author goes on to tell cf t “The Search for Norumbega,” "The: Guardians of the St. Lawrence,” anrl j ' Bimini and She Fountain cf Youth,” ; taking his line of legends into the very j United States, the authenticity of each ! hf which are givefi in the appendix. Xot the least of the troops many I charms are tbe exquisite pictures by Albert Herter, which have been uni versaliy admired, a h d many-of which have been selected for reproduction in the Christmas numbers of the' maga zines devoted to reviews, been selected for reproduerion in tln-jj fww*d Iff this I p* «f MR*M I *«• f ere* of (be ludl*** ntutind* iff dra matic • Illation* to each off* of wblrb tb* author does full Jjstks Not tor * moment Am tbe iffteroet falter, and tbe climaxes are never disappointing.

Tbe writer makes the reader fret with her "tb* atlr and movement of the auniroer afternoon the wind In the tree*, the whir of Inneeta. th* song of birds, the babbie of the water.” Nothing could more perfectly convey to the Imagination a conception of the alienee, the lovelineaH, the terror and tbe awe of ulght in those faatneaa *» than this: “Among the crags, high ahoy* the m ink ling watch flrea and th* waah of th* dark river, there was the still ness of the stars, of th* whit* froat, anti the bare cliffs. In the northern I i, n- played a oft 1.. * «'ffi no v and then a star shot. The man who marked It* troll arrow* the studded skies thought of himself as one as far withdrawn a* It from the world of lower light*. Already he felt a prea clenee of the lonellncsa of the morrow, and the morrow, and the morrow, of the slow drift of the days In the waning foreat. the hopeless nights, the terror of that great solitude -and felt too a feverish deal re to hasten that approach, to embrace that which was henceforth to be bone of h!a bone, and flesh of hla flesh. • • * Stronger end stronger blew the wind, louder and louder swelled the vole? of the forest. Below, the wash of the river in ita weeds, th? dull groaning of branch grating against brunch, and the fall of leaf and acorn, the loud sighing of the pines, the cry of the owl, tbe panther and the wolf—above, th* vast dome of the heavens and the fading stars. An effulgence in the east a sliver crest, like the white rim of a giant wave, upoa the eastern hills' a pale splendor mounting slowly and calmly upward a dead world—all her passions, all her pain, ail toll and strife over and done with—shining down upon a eadder earth.” Although the volume is composed of marly four hundred closely written pages, it is with a sigh of regret that one reads the last word and returns from dreams of the past to the re alities of the present. Dorothy Deane, a Child's Story, by Ellen Olncy Kirk. (Boston and New York. Houghton, Mifflin &■ Co. Price, $1.25.) Tbe author of “The Story of Marga-: ret Kent,” “Queen Nancy,” and other, equally as widely read novels, Is too well known for comment on her charming style to be other than su-1 perfluous. She Is at her very best In her delightfully told story of a little girl of eight years. -Ifls an ideal book for children, be cause it is all so thoroughly natural. The episodes in the life of the little ; New Englander might come into the j lives of tbe children of the south, or any. other section. They are interes-1 ting because they are concerned, with a very original set of young people, Dor othy's chosen companions. ,The grown people with whom Dor othy lived are equally as entertaining , as her younger friends, from th* pretty mother, twenty years older than her self to the grandmother: according; to irhnrr: all (he* evils of'the last quarter of ihi Nineteenth centqry might l* safel/ laid to tin fact that in dead of THE SUNDAY HICHALD In Dressing and Mani cure coHar and cuff sets in Dresden and other popu lar wares at Richards & Shaver’s.

Hawkinsville, Ga., Dec. 17.—A shoot ing affray occurred south of this place lust night, in which John James was billed and Baa Turner fatally wound ed. The young men were first cousins, and had been great friends from their childhood. They were prominent. At a country party these young far mers had a dispute and were about to resort to blows, when their friends In terfered. It was thought that, every thing was settled and friendly feeling restored. But on leaving the party the disturbance was renewed, in which James was killed. Turner is said to be .dying. , - ——-r—- ——' Our line of Japanese no velties is unsurpassed from 25 cents up.

The hialn-colls of fear, revenge, de struction ami many other of the bas er thoughts ure all fedd and nur tured by these tales. A wise parent would be talking to her child of the wonderful, work of the bee or the ant. She would talk of the wonderful sim ilarity in the nature and habits of all things God has made, from flowers and trees up to men. And the child who listened to daily talks like these from Infancy to youth would not de velop Into a murderer or a vagabond. He would not doubt God or hate his kind, no matter what unfortunate in heritance was bis. If his affections ure appealed to every day he Is building up that part of his nature as surely as he is breathing air into his Bings.
