SOME OF..

D. APPLETON & Co.'S NEW BOOKS

"For Children, Parents, Teachers, and all who are inter

ested in the Psychology of Childhood."

The Book of Knight and Barbara

By DAVID STARR JORDAN. Illustrated. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50.

The curious and fascinating tales and pictures of this unique book are introduced by Dr. Jordan with a preface which contains the following: "The only apology the author can make in this case is that he never meant to do it. He had told his own children many stories of many kinds, some original, some imitative, some travesties of the work of real story-tellers. Two students of the department of education in the Stanford University-Mrs. Louise Maitland, of San José, and Miss Harriet Hawley, of Bostonasked him to repeat these stories before other children. Miss Hawley, as a stenographer, took them down for future reference, and while the author was absent on the Bering Sea Commission of 1896 she wrote them out in full, thus forming the material of this book. Copies of the stories were placed by Mrs. Maitland in the hands of hundreds of children. These drew illustrative pictures, after their fashion; and from the multitude offered Mrs. Maitland chose those which are here reproduced. The scenes in the stories were also subjected to the criticisms of the children, and in many cases amended to meet their suggestions."

The Treasure Ship

A Story of Sir William Phipps, the Regicides,

and the Inter-Charter Period in Massachusetts. By HEZEKIAH BUTTERWORTH. Illustrated. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50.

In his vivid story, "The Treasure Ship," Mr. Butterworth pictures the dramatic events in the career of the poor boy who recovered the treasure from the Spanish ship sunk in the Bahamas, and was knighted by the king.

Mr. Sartain was born in London, where as a boy he witnessed the Peace Jubilee and saw many picturesque phases of old London and its life which have since disappeared. He studied under Varley and Richter, and began to engrave in Ottley's school. In this country his associations were literary as well as artistic. He knew Washington Irving and others of the Knickerbocker literary circle, and his close relations with Edgar Allan Poe form the subject of a most interesting chapter.

"We have had no such reminiscences for many a yearnone so frank, so good-humored, so kindly, so generous, and that from an author who strangely misunderstood his youthful vitality when he called himself 'A Very Old Man."" RICHARD HENRY STODDARD, in the Mail and

Express.

Evolution by
Atrophy

By JEAN DEMOOR, JEAN MASSART, and EMILE VANDERVELDE. A new volume in the International Scientific Series. $1.50.

The authors aim to show, first, that an essential element of the process of evolution as it goes on among plants and animals is the degeneration, decay, or atrophy of organs or parts of organs, at the same time that other parts or organs may and are generally being carried to a higher stage of development, these modifications of structure being attended with corresponding changes of function. They also point out that what is true in these respects in the field of life or biology is also true, though perhaps to a less extent, in social phenomena or sociology.

A REVOLUTIONARY MAID. A STORY OF THE MIDDLE PERIOD OF THE WAR FOR INDEPENDENCE. BY AMY E. BLANCHARD. 321 pp. Cloth, $1.50.

Kitty De Witt, the heroine of the story, has the fortune (good or bad) of living on Bowery Lane, New York, when the "Liberty Boys" pulled down the statue of George the Third on Bowling Green. This act of the New York patriots obliged Kitty to decide whether she would be a Tory or a Revolutionary Maid, and a patriot good and true she became. From this time on she experiences vicissitudes many and various, but extricates herself and friends, and helps the cause by her wit and cleverness.

BARBARA'S HERITAGE; OR, YOUNG AMERICANS AMONG THE OLD ITALIAN MASTERS. By DERISTHE L. HOYT. 360 pp. Cloth, $1.50.

We welcome a book from the pen of Miss Hoyt, whose foreign travel and study has made possible an exceedingly interesting story, into which has been interwoven much instructive and valuable information.

With a desire to broaden the education of her son and daughter by the opportunities afforded in foreign travel, an American mother takes them to Italy, and the author, in a very happy strain, has given us their many experiences.

THE GOLDEN TALISMAN. By H. PHELPS WHITMARSH. 300 pp. Cloth, $1.50.

THE ROMANCE OF CONQUEST. THE STORY OF AMERICAN EXPANSION THROUGH ARMS AND DIPLOMACY. BY WILLIAM E. GRIFFIS. 311 pp Cloth, $1.50.

This new book of Dr Griffis, his third along these lines, is aptly named. It is indeed a romance-a well-told story of the diplomacy, the treaties, the valor of the American soldier and sailor, the enterprise of our people, whereby the United States has become great in the acquirement of territory. The reader will find details of every war. WHEAT AND HUCKLEBERRIES. DR. NORTHMORE'S DAUGHTERS. By CHARLOTTE M. VAILE. 336 pp. Cloth, $1.50. Two girls, Esther and Katherine Northmore, born and brought up in the rich farm regions of the Middle West, spend a summer in the New England home of their grandfather. This furnishes capital groundwork for giving the local color of both sections of the country. The story is bright and spirited, with a decided literary quality. The characters are well drawn, and the action moves quickly. Esther and Katherine are delightful girls, and are sure to find their place among the favorite girl characters in fiction. WITH PERRY ON LAKE ERIE. A TALE OF 1812. By JAMES OTIS. 307 pp. Cloth, $1.50.

"The story carries the reader from March until October of 1813, being laid on Lake

Erie, detailing the work of the gallant Perry, who at the time of his famous naval victory was but twenty-seven years of age.

"From the time the keels of the vessels which became famous were laid until the victory was won which made Perry's name imperishable, the reader is kept in close touch with all that concerned Perry, and not only the main facts, but the minor details of the story are historically correct."

THE QUEEN'S RANGERS. By CHARLES LEDYARD NORTON. 352 pp. Cloth, $1.50.

The thrilling period during the last years of our struggle for independence forms the groundwork for Colonel Norton's latest work. The intense patriotism which prompted our young men to do and dare anything for their country is shown in the exploits of the three young heroes. Circumstances were such that they felt they could best serve their country by enlisting for a time beneath His Majesty's flag, which enabled them to give valuable informa. tion to the colonial cause.

WHEN BOSTON BRAVED THE KING. A STORY OF TEA-PARTY TIMES. By W. E. BARTON, D. D. 314 pp. Cloth, $1.50.

The ready pen of Dr. Barton finds a fit subject in sketching colonial history, and right well has he described one of the most famous of Boston's historical events.

He has made a character study of the men, a picturesque view of their surroundings, and pays a fitting tribute to the courage and high patriotism of these overthrowers of British tyranny.

CADET STANDISH OF THE ST. LOUIS. A STORY OF OUR NAVAL CAMPAIGN IN CUBAN WATERS. By WILLIAM DRYSDALE. 352 pp. Cloth, $1.50.

Of all the many war stories this is one of the best. Mr. Drysdale's intimate knowledge of Santiago and the surrounding country, Cuban life in general, and the late war in particular, gave him the basis for what has proved to be one of the strongest books of the year. It is historically true, introduces many noted individuals, and will fascinate while it stimulates its reader.

A DAUGHTER OF THE WEST. THE STORY OF AN AMERICAN PRINCESS. BY EVELYN RAYMOND. 347 pp. Cloth, $150. Miss Raymond tells in easy, flowing manner of the home life of a high-minded. wide-awake motherless girl.

"Select Notes" is now, as ever, most of all an illustrative commentary, and into no other one volume was ever gathered such a wealth of illustrative and illuminating Among the new features is the use of the new revised text in connection with the old version-a chronological chart in seven colors and a beautiful lithographed bird's-eye view of the Sea of Galilee.
