Studio. Colour photography; ed. by C.
Holme. 1908. (Studio. Special summer

Ref. 65d

A review of colour photography that is none the less interesting because it is so clear and accurate on the technical side forms the introduction, and all the rest of the book is given up to reproductions of the pictures themselves, forming a collection that would be most interesting to the lover of art in all forms of its expression as well as to the enthusiast over the possibilities of modern photography as a medium of direct art expression.-Craftsman.

The hero of Miss Murfree's new story is a

count of his father's death and shattered for-
tunes. He turns to pedagogical work and
engages in preparing three Southern boys for
college. The story is concerned with his life
in this home on a cotton plantation, with his
thrilling adventures with river pirates and
floods, and with his romance in which a
widow ten years his senior is the altogether
charming heroine.-Bk. Rev. Digest.
