Hodder & Stough- ten, Toronto, Publishers. n. Uglow & Co., City. Some women haven't got any hearts, but this particular woman-- yes, shy was very particular, we learn-- had one, and it gave her con- siderable concern. ter self-confes- sion of its innermost secrets is here revealed for all and sundry to read, and quite wisely she conceals her name. The story opens with her marriage and subsequent happy life in a mod- est cify home. She terms it "Para- dise." The future looked rosy, un- til another woman appears on the scene, and she and too much worldly wealth upset the applecart of domes- tic felicity. Follow fast financial ruin, the husband's imprisonment, disgrace,--and, Paradise is lost. But this woman's heart is brave and her brain is active, and she sets to work to achieve a Paradise Regained. Ere long the pendulum swings back, the prison doors swing open, and hubby convinced to be 3 good boy henceforth and for- ever, amen, The sunshine of pros- perity brightens his way, and soon he is ensconced in a mansion most majestic, like the handsome houses where the wealthy nobles dwell, Here the wife's pride. and vanity have plenty to feed upon, and---oh, believe us--Dbut she does enjoy her triumph. Now it is hubby's turn to get dis- gusted. © Feminine fashion and frol- ic may be endured for a short season, but they nauseate in time, The man simply couldn't stand it, so he left his uniolded tent--Ilikewise his wife ~behind him, and silently stole away.

THE REDISCOVERED COUNTRY. By Stewart Edward White, a58 Pages. lllustrated. Price, $2. The Musson Book Co., Toronto, Publishers. R. Uglow & Co, City. Here is a book that every hunter will enjoy and an #&uthor they will envy. Stewart Edward White writes successful fiction that he may have the_ipeans wherewith to hunt wild animals in the most uninhabited parts of the world. - He is above all a naturalist, with a boyish ea- thusiasm for big game and the sport of getting it himself. Every page of his new book proves it. Mr. White and R. J. Cuninghame, the famous English hunter, spent the summer of 1913 in German ast Africa beg pardon, the late German East Africa--in a region that had never echoed -the sound ef a gun. The story of thelr encounters with lions, rhinos, buffaloes, elephants and other big game will make many a sportsman eager to follow their trail. . White Irad traversed British East Africa in search of big game only 'a eouple of years before, but he was anxious to get {inte some virgin country that had never been shot over. As he explains it: "By degrees 1 came to see that most cof Begitish East Africa is a beaten track. Shooters are sent by the outfitting firms around one or the other of several well-known cir- cles. The days' marches are plan- ned in advance; the nights' camps. There i§ plenty of game, and the country is wild; but the sportsman is in no essentially different condi- tions here than when with his guide he shoots his elk in Jackson's Hole or his deer in the Adirondacks. '""And again I heard the tales of the old-timers, varying little from those at home--'in the old days be- fore the Sotik was overrun, the lions would stand for you'--'l remember the elephants used to migrate every two years from Kenia across the Abedares'--'before Nairobi was buiit the bulfalo used to feed right in the open until nine o'clock' In short, in spite of the abundance of the game, spite of the excitement and the danger still to be enjoyed with some of its more truculent varieties, the same wistful regret sooner or later was sure to come to the sur- face of thought--I wish I could have been here then, could have seen it all when the country was new. "And then unexpectedly came just this experience. We found that af- ter all there still exists a land where the sound of a rifle is unknown: as great im extent as the big game fields of British Fast Africa; swarming with untouched game; healthy, and, now that the route and method have been worked out, easily accessible to a man who is willing to go light and work. Furthermore, I must re- peat, this is the last new game field of real extent. All the rest of the continent is well enough known. Therefore we have the real pleasure not only in opening a new and rich country to the knowledge of sports- men, but the added satisfaction of knowinig that wé are the last who will even behold such a country for the first time." 3 This ultimate paradise for the sportsman is in German East Africa, between Lake Natron and Victoria Nyanza. White entered the undis- covered country by way of Nairobi southward through difficult moun- tain regions inhabited. by unfriendly Masai, and so infested with tsetse fly that fifty-nine of their donkeys died 'on the way. Describing the Bologonja Valley he writes: "1 strolled over the fine green hills and revelled in the sight of game--black -herds of wildebeeste, like bison in the park openings; topi everywhere, zebra, hartebeeste, Tom- my, oribi, steinbuck, impalia, reed- buck, and others. - Out of the lot I picked a kongoni at 237 yards, after missing one at 150, buck and doe oribi at 50 and 125 yards, and a wildebeeste at 353 yards. "Never have I seen anything like that game. It covered every hill, strolling in and out among the groves, feeding on the bottom lands, singly or in groups. It did not matter in which direction I looked, there it was; as abundant one place as another. Nor did it matter how far 1 went, over how many hills I walked, how many wide prospects I examined, it was always the same. "During my stay at the next two camps I looked over fifty square, miles. One day I counted 4,628 head. And suddenly I rea again that in this beautiful, wide, populous country no man's rifle had ever beep fired. [I moved of unsophisti- cated beasts as a Jord of Eden would have moved."

They looked just like that: one Qf those coiton-wool clouds--the cotton-wool that comes in jewellers' boxes. We did not find ur mistake for some few minutes Then the cloud miraculously dropped to the edge of the water, and the shore turned pink for miles. Co "In identically the same way a pure white cloud hanging in the sky proved to be snow geese. Another was of white pelicans. "By and by we camé to a papyrus marsh in the water along the edge of which were countless hordes of geese, --ducks, waders, and many sorts of ibis, plover, egrets, ete, Never have I seen so many and so varied water-fowl. They were quite tame and did not take wing until we were less than forty yards away. Over them wheeled a cloud of insect-catching birds. And still higher soared grandly the hawks and eagles and carrion-eaters." out o Quick Work With Lions. It" was lions in particular, how- ever, which Mr. White was after, and his experiences in this dangerous pasttime make excellent reading. This sport. requires unusual quick- ness and skill if the lion 18' not to come out best, and: these, coupled with © clever 'marksmanship, Mr. White undoubtedly possesses. He was stalking a lion, and hearing a noise of scrambling and crashing, hurried to a supposed point of van- tage. He continues: "A big maned lion leaped to the top of the bank right in my face. "I was just four yards from him. In the fraction of an instant that he paused to assure his balance I re- covered from the shock of surprise, swung (he bead of my .405 on him, and pulled the trigger. It would WENT BACK FOR GLASSES-- AND WON VICTORIA CROSS Humorous Story Of a British Subal- tern and a Pair of "Made in Germany" Field Glasses. A pair of field glasses "made in Germany" was responsible for the loss of a trench by the Germans in circumstances at once laughable and inspiring. The story was told in Britaif 'by Prof. J. H. Morgan. The herd of it was a young British subaltern who won ths V.C. - The sybaltern had a pair of Zeiss field glasses, of which he was extra- ordinarily proud. He bored everyone stiff by talking about them continu- ally. One 'day his company had been compelled to fall back on their sup- port trenches owing to a sudden Ger- man atiack. All at once the subal- tern shouted, "Good Heavens!" and bolted : through the communication trench. uP A sergeant, who was very fond of the young ofiicer, went after him, and came back shortly after to the com- manding officer to report: "Sir, he has recaptured the trench." The commanding officer collected his men, and again advanced to the fire trench, where he found the sub- altern with a revolver in each hand, in front of a whole row of Germans, who laid down their rifles'and were" holding up their hands. The com- manding cfficer congratulated him, but pointed out the recklessness of his action. "Sir " replied the subaltern. wanted to get my glasses back." Prof. Morgan said the principal amusement of the British soldier in billets seemed to be nursing his hos- tess' baby. Footbdll went on as a matter of course, "1 ' Whistle and bugle were not used he exceedingly interesting to know just the actual lapse of the time be- | tween the appearance of the lion and | the first shot. In reality it must | have been exceedingly short, for the beast was caught between the land- ! ing from his leap and his spring; he indubitably intended to attack, knew just where we were, and was out to make a fight of it. Yet I appar- ently had time to notice a great many little details, such as the fact that the lion liad an unusually fine mane; that the mané was so erect between the ears as almost to point forward; that his eves looked round rather than elliptical. | "Nevertheless, before the lion had \ even (lensed his muscles for the! next effort that would land him on' me, the first bullet took him. It was an exceedingly interesting ex- ample of how rapidly and compre- | hensively the human mind works ! under excitement." " Mr. White's most amazing feat was that of attacking four lions at, once and finishing them all. First a big lioness thrust her Lead up from a clump of bushes twenty yards away. Wounded, she charged, snarl- ing with rage, but was stopped by three rapidly delivered shots in the nick of time. At the same instant a lion emerged from the thicket, fol- bowed by a second lioness. A shot at the lion caused it to leap into the air and bite savagely at the wound its should- , er. The lioness did not stir. As White was swiftly preparing to! take another shot at the wounded animal before it could charge, his gun-bearer touched his elbow and breathed, "Look, master, see the very big one." The author con- tinues: "1 looked. From behind the screen of thin bush to the left saun- tered the most magnificent wild lion I had ever seen. His yellow mane hung thick and long half way to his knees, and extended far along 'his back. His head was up, and his sleepy, wise face expressed digdified surprise. "It was very bad sense to 'take va' one lion before settling with the, other, but the temptation was too great. 1 put a Springfield bullet in his shoulder, too. "At the report of the rifle the lioness charged like a flash. Nobody had said or done a thing to her. She just wanted to prove that line about the 'female of the species,' '1 sup- pose. Already I had two wounded lions on hand, but evidently it was necessary to acquire another." During the next few minutes all three beasts came at the hunter in their various ways. It was absolute- ly necessary to keep cool, amd Mr. White says he was scared enough to do so. Taking each animal in turn, he fired nine cartridges from two different kinds of rifiés as fast as his gun-bearer could load them. Fin- ally only the lange male remained sitting on his haunches and staring around him, sixty yards away. In a Wpirit of bravado, and to test the theory that even a wounded lion can be bluffed if a man charges first, Mr. White then started to walk straight toward the animal. A$ first the king of beasts lost his nerve and re-, treated, then it charged so suddenly that the hunter was almost paralyzed by 'the surprise of it. § "This is, in my opinion," he says, "the supreme moment in a hunter's life, the moment when, all prelim-* inaries at an end, the lion makes his direct and deadly attack. The little unessentials are brushed aside. ! Only remains the big primitive idea to fill a man's mind--kill or be kill-| ed. . . Excited/in the usual sense of the word? Ne. But alive to the utter- most of all his faculties at once?) Yes. That is why the moment 'is supreme. . .

Op- timism has been the keynote of the Falr sirce its inception, and the offic- ials do not feel that.they are over sanguine on this occasion. It will be remembered that the Germans had not been checked on their march to Paris when the Fair opened a year ago. In addition to the feeling of umrest caused by the war, the railroads had refused to grant reduced rates, and this was re- sponsible for the thousands of people staying at home when their desires were in the direction of a trip to To- ronto. Then, again, these factors put together brought the attendance below 800,000 in 1914. 'This year the railroads have re- stored the old rates and there is a more settled fecling as regards the war.
