BOOK REVIEWS. 



If you would like to camp in the big woods 

 of Maine but cannot; or if you have lived in 

 them at some time and wish to recall memo- 

 ries of them, read " The Aroostook Woods." 

 Its author, Charles C. West, is a thorough 

 woodsman. Every page is replete with the 

 craft of the forests, with minute knowledge 

 of bird and animal life, and with wise sug- 

 gestions for those who would camp, hunt, 

 fish, trap, or ply the paddle. Every reader 

 will long to imitate this lover of Nature and 

 live among the woods he so enticingly de- 

 scribes. Illustrated. New England News 

 Co., Boston. 



" Days of My Life," By John Bickereyke, 

 author of "The Book of the Ail-Around 

 Angler," etc. Illustrated. Si. 75. Longmans, 

 Green & Co., New York. 



A charming volume of angling stories. 

 M r. Bickerdyke prefers casting flies for trout, 

 but has taken all kinds of fish, with all kinds 

 of bait r in all kinds of waters, fresh and salt, 

 in England, Scotland, Wales, and even Ger- 

 many. He gives much information and de- 

 lightful entertainment in this new book, 

 which all anglers should read. 



"An Errant Wooing" is a* new and de- 

 lightful story by Mrs. Burton Harrison, 

 the popular writer of so many New York so- 

 ciety novels. It has just finished its course 

 as a serial in The Century Magazine^ and is 

 now printed in book form, with the addition 

 of about 20 full-page illustrations. The book 

 is a romance of travel, opening in London 

 and continuing in Tangier and Southern 

 Spain. During the course of its serial pub- 

 lication it has received high praise from the 

 critics, and a large sale is predicted for it in 

 book form. The illustrations include photo- 

 graphic reproductions of views of Gibraltar, 

 Tangier, the Mosque at Cordova, the Bull 

 Ring at Seville, the Alhambra, etc. Pub- 

 lished by the Century Co., New York.

 q Gentlemen: I have used many 

 rn kinds of gun oil, but find yours 

 _ ahead of all. Can recommend 

 ^ it to all for lubricating and rust 

 > preventive, knowing it to be all 

 7- that is claimed for it. I have 

 ? shot at trap all day in a pouring 

 rain with a bright, polished gun 

 and cleaned at night with " 3 in 

 1," and never rusts; I endorse 

 it as a long felt want if only 

 tried. Yours truly,
