McClell- and, Goodchild & Stewart, Tor- onto, Publishers, 372 Pages. Price $1.35. R. Uglow & Co. City. Mrs. Ward is a clever writer, and her bok ure usually intellectual treats "Delia Blanchflower," re viewed on this page some months ago, was a fascinating story, replete with bright, witty dialogue, The new novel, "Eltham House," is of a differ ent type The atmosphere is more like what we have been accustonfed to in Mrs... Ward's former novels, Heré we have English aristocracy at its best,--dukes and diamonds, ma nor halls and millions. While there is nothing very new in plot or idea, the story itself a swiftly-moving one, theroughly readable and, as must be expected, cleverly written. "Eltham House" is an endeavor to depict the attitude of English so ciety towards a man and a woman who have broken the rules of con- ventional morality. In the Fore-|{ word, Mrs, Ward frankly owns that the story is'inspired by the life of Lord and Lady Holland and the fa- mous salon the latter establshed at | Holland House in the early part of | the 19th century. Lord Holland, it | will be remembered, ran away with | the wife of 'Sir Godfrey Webster, | There was a divorce, and, in the words of Mrs, Ward: "Lord and Lady Holland were married and en- tered upon their long and royal reign | in Holland House. Lord Holland | never seems to have suffered any so- | cial or political penalty whatever. ! Lady Holland, on the other hand, was not 'called upon'; womeén, un- less they were relations of friends made abroad, did not--at any rate in the early years--go tg Holland House, How things are modified in a hundred years! What would the | Nonconformist conscience have te say, and all that artificially stringent public opinion which is, so to speak, | made by publicity and the newspa- pers?" Here we have the motif of the pre. sent volume, What course wou.d | public opinion take to-day, given si- milar circumstances? Would it be more tolerant, or less tolerant? So Mrs. Ward visualizes a new set of | charactérs and describes théir endea- | vors to take their place in society | and in politics. In ether words; the | Holland case is reconstructed under | modern conditions. Alec Wing, the | son .of & wealthy peer, runs away | with the wife of Sir Yohn Marsworth. | She deserts her two children, and goes away for a year of happiness in the Italian mountains with Alec. Af | ter the divorce, Alec and Caroline re- | turn to London to take up their place in soctety. Alec has strong politi- cal ambitions, while his" wife in ev- ery way endeavors to assist him. His *truggles and disappointments are well outlined. His failure--for po- pular feeling, led by the women,! proved too strong--came in due course, All Aledis money and abil- ity and friends could not. secure him a place in the newly formed govern. ment which he had helped to place in power. Disappointed and dis- | couraged, he blames his wife for his! downfall, and goes alone to South | America to travel and think things out. When he returns unherald he finds Caroline dying, a broken-| hearted woman. The Nonconformist | nr had interfered with her | pi By is { ans and spoilt her husband's oar | Battle Cruisers. [Syracuse Post-Standard. The administration pn € | for naval construction provides for four battle cruisers to ¢ $18,000,- 000 each. The decision admits a ratifying change of mind upon the part ofthe naval constructors' Ac- cording to- previous repofts they were for power and weight, at sacri- flee of speed. The battleships of dreadnought and superdregd: t type ate of 18,000 to 24,000 tons displacement with atmor of 12 to 16 inches, mount ing four, eight or in case of the Wy- oming and Arkansas, twelve 12-inch guns, and having speed of eighteen to twenty-one knots. The battle cruiser type, which Great Britain began to build in 1909, has displace- ment and gun power equal to the dreadnoughts or greater, but the ar mor belt is reduced and the speed is increased. ! ; ' The Lion and Tiger of the British navy are capable of maximum speed of thirty knots. The Germans have in their latest construction several nearly as fast and much faster than any of our bastiestitpe. The sdvantage speed both for offensive and defensive operations on the sea is obvious. With guns of equal power, the thirty knot battle crulser could choose its own tiie for battle against our battleships of eigh- knots.

Ferdinand Owes His Kingdom To Russia and England. New York World The key of victory in the war is Bulgaria in the east, as in the west it is Belgium. The one is the ancient highway to Constantinople; the oth- er is the road to Paris... The death- less fame of Belgium as the bul wark of democratic civilization may presently be matched, in reverse, by the shame of Bulgaria as its would- be betrayer. Belgfum owed existence 'and neu- trality to all the Powers, and kept her faith to all by defending them.

A Whig representative spent two very pleasant days in Yarker this week and noted many changes in the past two years On the corner opposite the Com- mercial Hotel where the general Store was located for about fifty years, the Benjiman Company has built a large garage and supply sta- tion for the convenience of the gen- eral traveling public Automobile owners passing through Yarker are able to fill their tanks with gasoline. After the fire which destroyed the fermerty vecupted: "by he | @eneral store, the late proprietor jeft Yarker never to return. The build ing formerly occupied as a general Store by the late Mr. Edwart has been remodelled by the Benjiman Company as its head office. John Watt, Postmaster and pro- prietor of the Commercial Hotel, is one of the most obliging men one would meet, and is liked by the com rercial men. The Whig man spent an enjoyable time with some of the residents who have been readers of the Whig for many years. Samuel Winter, who keeps the gen eral store had been a reader of the Whig since he was eight years of age, He stated that he could re- member the days when the late Dr Barker published the paper in the building on Bagot street near the Wholesale house of Macnee & Min nes, When the paper wis purchas ed by the late E. J, B Pense, Mr Winter still continuedt to subse ribe to the Whig. For years Mr. Winter was the Yarker correspondent for the Whig and still continues to send in "copy." . Mr. Winter has conducted a gen- eral store in Yarker for thirty-one years He was born in the old Frontenac Hotel building in King- ston. This building was erected by his grandfather. Mr. Winter has taken a great interest in the Yarkesr Methodist Sunday school, of which he is superintendent. "Although 1 am eighty-two years of age I am still able to take care of my garden," said Alpheus Vanluven to the Whig. When the Whig man called at the Vanluven residence, he found the old gentleman busily en- igaged in taking in some of the gar- den produce. As an authority on hens, Mr. Vanluven has few equals. From a young lad he has looked af- ter his hems as he would a business, He keeps track of how many eggs the hens lay and how much it costs to keep them. For some years Mr. Vanluven has lived with his daughter, Mrs. Ewart. He was born near Murvale. Four of his brothers have died. One son Max- well, employed as a machinist at the Locomotive Works, resides on Divi- sion street, Kingston. The residents of Yarker are look- ing forward with great interest to come a divisional point of the Cana- dian Northern Railroad. It is un- | derstood that at a recent meeting, | the C. N. R. board expressed itself in favor of the proposed extension at | Yarker. Since the main line of the { C.N.R. went through Yarker things { have boomed. there. | The residents of Yarker were very much delighted on Monday when for- ty employees of the Benjiman Wheel { factory, who have been out of work for some months on account of lack of orders; Teported for duty.

They were {armed with guns and huge game ags, and as it was their first ven- ture at shooting they were tremen- | dously keen. | Suddenly Meehan spotted a bird, and, taking very eareful aim prepar- eq to fire the fatal shot. Then Fer- gus seized him by the arm frantic- ally, erying: "Fer th' mercy's sake, don't fire, Meehan! = Shure an' ye're fergotten to load yer gun!" { "That's as it may be, me lad." re- | torted Meehan, 'but, fire I must!
