Blackfoot Lodge-Tales; The Story of a Prairie 

 People. By George Bird Grinnell, author of "Paw- 

 nee Hero Stories and Folk-Tales." Cloth, 310 pages. 

 Price, $1.75. Mr. Grinnell's collection of Blackfoot stories 

 is one of extraordinary interest to all readers. It tells of a 

 race of people whose life was out of doors, who depended 

 for their living on the chase, whose study was the wild ani- 

 mals which furnished them subsistence, and the wild tribes 

 which surrounded them. These stories, taken down from 

 the lips of the old men and the brave warriors, are fascin- 

 ating in their honesty of narration, in the scenes of horror 

 which they sometimes conjure up, the weird poetic turn they 

 often take, and cheerful matter-of-fact way in which some 

 incredible piece of bravery is disposed of. While the first 

 half of the book is devoted to stories current among the 

 people, the second is given up to a discussion of their 

 habits, customs and ways of life. It presents a series of 

 graphic pictures of savage life in peace and war, and 

 throws a flash of light on the ways of the tribe to-day, 

 and on ancient customs which have now passed out of 

 existence.
