Each one of these volumes from the 
“Home University Library” series repre- 
sents a three hours’ traffic with the talking- 
power of a good brain operating with the 
ease and interesting freedom of a specialist 
dealing with his own subject. 
The French Revolution, by Hilaire Belloc, 
presents to the busy man a volume it would 
be difficult or impossible to surpass within 
the limits of its purpose, which is to con- 
vey to the reader an intelligent idea of the 
greatest political event of modern times by 
a clearly worded and thoroughly interesting 
narrative. 
_Modern Geography, by Marion I. New- 
bigin, is one of the most readable handbooks 
on the subject that has appeared in the past 
ten years. The author, who is editor of the 
Scottish Geographical Magazine, knows her 
topic thoroughly and succeeds, moreover, 
in presenting it in a pleasing manner for 
the perusal of others. The book treats of 
Surface Relief and Erosion; Climate and 
Weather ; Distribution of Plant, Animal and 
Human Life ; Localization of Industries and 
Towns and various other phases of geo- 
graphical study. 
War and Peace, by G. H. Perris, is a 
comprehensive short history of the subject 
handled by the writer with admirable skill 
in his bringing so many facts and views into 
so small a compass, still maintaining a 
scholarly, clear style. 
Irish_ Nationality, by Alice Stopford 
(Mrs. J. R.) Green, is a brilliant account 
of the genius and wisdom of the Irish peo- 
ple. It is an entrancing work and every 
one with a drop of Irish blood in his veins 
or a vein of Irish sympathy in his heart is 
advised to read it. 
The Civil War, by Frederic L. Paxon, 
Professor of American History in the Uni- 
versity of Wisconsin, gives considerable 
space to the domestic politics with which 
Lincoln had to contend, and to the foreign 
dangers which were avoided by Seward and 
Adams. There are brilliant paragraphs de- 
with Waverley Electrics. 
Elegance Leading Attribute 
of Every Waverley Electric

AMERICAN HOMES AND GARDENS 
Foreign markets have been searched for rich upholstering fabrics, while a famous 
decorative artist, a member of the Waverley staff, has evolved especial elegance of finish 
and fitting.
