August Lippincott's Magazine.

So inviting is the table of contents presented in the August number of LIPPINCOTT'S MAGAZINE that it tempts even the jaded appetites of tired readers who had decided "just to loaf" during the warm season. The Magazine's leading feature is an always-first-class novelette. This possesses alia novel's best points so condensed as to omit tiresome explanations and descriptions, leaving a well-cover-ed kernel to delight the palate. "Her First Elopement'' is by "Clara Bartram"—so called— and supposed by those who know to be an alias for a prominent writer who is on intimate terms with New York fashionables. This is a rattling good tale of Newport with itsjjworldrenowned yachts and its lovely women. How, 01* why, or with whom "Her First Elopement" comes off it seems hardly fair to reveal. But for piquant situations, sparkling dialogue, and an altogether clever handling of a lively, ingenious plot the author merits warmest congratulations, which she should share with the magazine which was so fortunate as to be the medium of the story's presenting.

Prince Vladimir Vaniatsky writes of American and English people at Bombay in "The Madness of Sari.-' His blending of light and shade is deft. A summer story by Anne O'Hagan is called "Lady Alice at Ued'Ete-'' This hits the weakness of Americans for titled personages and deals with the theft of some jewels 011 an island off the Maine coast. The ice-bound shores of Labrador bespeak interest in "Deborah of Fort Yaivak." The heroine is made of the stern stuff that counts no effort too great to rescue the man she loves. Its author is Mary Bourcliier San ford. Arthur Hendrick vandenberg's story of a landdeal is entitled "A Boom in Reality." How a journalist gets the best of a real estate broker and overreaches himself is amusingly told. Though Gay BentleyJWuerpel's contribution, called "Who Killed the Heifer?" opens with a death, it quickly develops into a really sprightly story of the unselfish arrangements a man makes for a successor to himself in the affections of hia wife.

One of Agnes Repplier's bright, clear-cut papers is published under the title of "The Album Amicorum." Her views on the subject of autograph albums are no less definite and delightful than on many other subjects.

August verse is plentiful and up to the usual high standard. The poets of the month are Clara Sherwood Stevens, Theodosia Garrison, Mounce Byrd Richard Kirk, Isabella Howe Fiske, Hilton R. Greer, Mabel Stan wood, and Phil H. 'Armstrong.
