along that a hotel at any cost would pay. 
The Masconomo House was sufficient 
for the day when it was first built. “he 
town would be further developed by a

An attractive new line of beautitul 
colored postals have just been put in by 
Floyd and H. S. Tappan, showing some 
new views, including the outer and inner 
harbor, the old Foster House (built in 
in 1804) and new views of the three 
churches. Floyd and Tappan have the 
exclusive sale of these postals. Call and 
see them. *

“Red Book” Automobile Guide. 
Automobile tourists will welcome the 
appearance of the 1908 edition of the 
** Red Book’’ Automobile Guide, which 
has just been issued. No better illustra- 
tion of the growth of the industry is af- 
forded than a comparison of the guide 
books of afew years ago and those of 
the present season. ‘The “Red Book”’ 
is a volumne of about 600 pages, con- 
tains 574 separate routes in New Eng- 
land and the Hudson River district and 
has detailed descriptions of no less than 
26,000 miles of roads, giving distances, 
condition of, roads, grades, railroad 
crossings, danger points, and in fact com- 
plete running details for touring between 
the leading centers and all the popular 
seaside and mountain resorts. The dir- 
ections are models of conciseness, and 
the avoidance of reference to points of 
the compass—always confusing to the 
stranger in a strange place—is one of the 
improvements noticed. “he systematic 
arrangement of the ‘“‘ Red Book’’ routes 
in numerical order, grouped in division 
centers, together with a complete index 
of towns and villages, giving the num- 
ber of the routes on which located, make 
this an ideal guide for tourists and not a 
*“Chinese puzzle,’’ as is sometimes the 
criticism made of publications of this 
nature. Lists of the best hotels and 
garages are published in connection with 
each route. A summary of the laws of 
the several States is given. Street maps 
of all the cities and larger towns show 
plainly how to get in and out of con- 
gested districts. A large diagrammatic 
map of New England and eastern New 
York, showing all the popular routes and 
their exact relation to each other, accom- 
panies the book. Printed in large type 
on pink paper, with flexible waterproof 
binding and a ribbon bookmark make the 
outfit complete. At bookstores and 
garages. Published by F. S. Blanchard 
& Co., Worcester, Mass. Price $2.50. *
