The Rural Patterns. 
This simple little blouse is suitable for 
many uses; it will be found a desirable 
pattern for embroidering. The waist is 
made with lining, which can be used or 
omitted as material renders desirable, and 
itself consists of the front and the backs.

The Bookshelf. 
If Youth But Knew, by Agnes and 
Egerton Castle. This is a picturesque 
story of young romance, the scene laid 
in Westphalia at the time when the great 
Corsican had planted his feeble brother, 
Jerome Bonaparte, upon the throne of that 
kingdom. The dominant character of the 
book is a wandering violinist, beloved of 
the country children, who carries the ar¬ 
dent sympathies of youth into worn old 
age, and lives his own life again in the 
affections of the young. The whole story 
hinges upon his determination to teach 
an over-serious, somewhat priggish young 
man how great is the privilege of youth. 
The gradual awakening of the young 
Anglo-Austrian count to warmer feeling 
and sympathies, and the growth of his 
affection for the little child-bride thrust 
upon him by force of circumstances, is 
charmingly told; we get a passing glimpse 
of Europe’s great war, and, while Je¬ 
rome’s pasteboard throne collapses be¬ 
neath him, we see the beginning of a hap¬ 
py future. It is a charming episode in a 
troubled time, told with that artistic touch 
we always expect in the work of these 
well-known authors. Published by Mac¬ 
millan & Company, New York; price 
$1.50. 
Lady Baltimore, by Owen Wister.— 
The quaint old southern town here pic¬ 
tured, with its atmosphere of culture, its 
old-time friendships and its respect for 
tradition is in marked contrast to the 
rushing business life depicted in many 
modern novels. It is a change, also, from 
the broad western plains and rollicking 
cowboys we usually associate with Mr. 
Wister’s work. There are no thrilling 
escapades in “Lady Baltimore,” but it 
commands attention by its gentle humor 
and grace of narrative, and by the sym¬ 
pathy with which it depicts a circle of 
delightful gentlewomen. Some of its read¬ 
ers liken it to “Cranford,” and though 
we are not willing to admit that anyone 
may quite approach the incomparable 
Mrs. Gaskell, the comparison is quite nat¬ 
urally suggested. Every southerner who 
reads it will surely be taken back to old 
times at home, and every northerner will 
feel a closer understanding with the 
ideals of such a community as leisurely 
King’s Fort. After being prepared, how¬ 
ever, to regard Lady Baltimore as the 
heroine, it was rather startling to learn 
that this is the name of a most delectable 
King’s Port cake! This book is pub¬ 
lished by the Macmillan Company, New 
York; price $1.50. 
Never part without loving words to 
think of during your absence. It may be 
that you will not meet again during life.
