The Bookshelf. 
Jasper, by Mrs. Molesworth. This 
author is well known and greatly loved 
by a wide circle of juvenile readers; her 
moral tone is always excellent, and she 
gives the right combination of home hap¬ 
penings and small adventures to hold the 
interest of her audience. The present 
book tells about a group of English chil¬ 
dren to whom poverty and sickness 
proved the means of developing the unsel¬ 
fish virtues and strengthening character, 
while a change to brighter fortunes once 
more was brought about by the manly 
little hero. It will be a good book for 
reading aloud to children from about six 
to 12 years old. Published by the Mac¬ 
millan Company, New York; attractively 
illustrated; price $1.50. 
The Amulet, by Charles Egbert Crad¬ 
dock. As in a previous book, “The Story 
of Old Fort Loudon,” the author takes us 
to Tennessee in Colonial times, when 
British soldiers held a mountain outpost 
among the savage Cherokees. The period 
of the story is 1763, and there is a vivid 
description of the rude frontier life, which 
made a strange setting for the romance 
of which the commandant’s daughter was 
heroine. .The amulet which plays a not¬ 
able part in the story, was a wonderful 
stone held sacred by the Cherokees, sup¬ 
posed to be a red tourmaline of extraor¬ 
dinary beauty. It has long passed into 
legend, but there are many beautiful 
stones, precious and semi-precious, still 
found in those rugged mountains, and 
wiser people than the Cherokees have 
credited the tourmaline with magical pow¬ 
ers. “The Amulet” gives us side lights 
on a period in American history we often 
overlook, and is written with a close 
knowledge of the district, which is not 
always possessed by the historical novel¬ 
ist. Published by the Macmillan Com¬ 
pany, New York; price $1.50. 
Calendars and Christmas Cards.— 
The popularity of cards, calendars and 
booklets certainly does not grow less, and 
the publishers gain new effects in artistic 
expression each season. A veteran firm 
in this line-is Raphael Tuck & Sons Co., 
of New York and London, who always 
offer something novel and attractive. 
Their calendars show charming original 
designs, beautifully printed, especially in 
the flower subjects, and they also show 
some novel effects in embossed calendars 
mounted with fabrics, such as “The 
Night Before Christmas,” which is highly 
effective. In cards and booklets there are 
some handsome celluloid mounts, com¬ 
bined with pastel effects in lithographic 
printing. This firm makes a specialty of 
collections or packets of assorted cards 
for distribution, which will be found very 
desirable by teachers or Sunday school 
superintendents, or by any purchaser buy¬ 
ing in quantity. Such remembrances may 
be very inexpensive, or may mount up to 
a considerable sum, according as one’s 
means permit; their special value lies in 
the sentiment they express, and the con¬ 
venience with which they may be sent to 
distant friends._ _ 
The web of our life is of a mingled 
yarn, good and ill together; our virtues 
would be proud if our faults whipped 
them not; and our crimes would despair 
if they were not cherished by our virtues.

Will You Just Try 
This Water-tight 
RUBBERHIDE BOOT? 
Made of purest rubber and best sole leather 
—sewed not pegged—absolutely water-tight 
and snag-proof—can be resoled—your money 
back if they do not outwear two pairs of the 
best quality rubber boots of other makes. 
If you work in the wet, you want a boot that 
will keep your feet perfectly dry—and at the 
same time not to go to pieces in a few weeks 
time. Well, here it is; 
The Rubberhide Boot 
Made of the purest rubber, with heavy leather 
outsole, and leather innersole, with 
a rubber welt and middle sole, all 
joined together (without pegs or 
nails), and joined to the upper so 
securely, that a team of horses 
can’t pull them apart. 
And not a drop of water can find its way in. 
The heavy leather sole does uot cut or snag 
when you step on a nail or a sharp stick. 
It protects your feet from stones and rough 
surfaces. 
It conforms to the shape of your foot, and 
41 It can be easily resoled—any cobbler can 
tap” or half-sole the Rubberhide. The uppers 
are so good that they will outwear two or three 
pairs of soles. 
The inner sole of leather pre¬ 
vents excessive perspiration 
which makes the ordinary rubber 
boots such a nuisance. 
The Rubberhide is the only ab¬ 
solutely water-tight boot made; 
It will last longer than two or 
three pairs of rubber boots; 
It will keep your feet 
comfortable all the time 
Will You Try 
a Pair? 
Outwears 
Two Pairs 
If your dealer handles the Rub¬ 
berhide he will sell them to you 
on a positive guaranty that they 
will outwear two pairs of even best 
quality rubber boots of other 
makes. If they do not, he will refund every 
cent you paid for them. 
If he does not, send to us direct (giving deal¬ 
er’s name) and we will send you a pair with the 
same money-back guaranty. We pay the ex¬ 
press charges.
