THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1920. TAT OF RAEDHATSN Entirely Well After Six Weeks' Treatment With "FRUIT-A-TIVES" MR. AMEDEE GARCEAU 82 Hickory 8t., Ottawa, Ont. *I was for many years a victim o/ that terrible disease, Rheumatiem. In 1018, I was laid up for four months with Rheumatism in the joints of the knees, hips and shoulders and was prevented from following my werk, that of Electrician. I tried many remedies and was under the care of a physician; bu nothing did me any good. Then I began to take 'Frult-a-tives' and in = week I was éasler, and in six weeks | was so well I went to work again. I look upon this fruit medicine, "Pruisa-tives', as simply marvellous in thc ewe of Rheumatism, and strongly advise everyone suffering with Rheu matism to give 'Fruit-a-tives' a trial."

Meat forms uric acid which overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the biood and they become sort of paralyzed 'and loggy. When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them, like you relieve your bowels; moving all the body's urinous @, else you have backache, sick dache, dizzy spells; your stomach rs, tongue is coated, and when the her is bad you have rheumatic vinges. The urine is cloudy, full of diment, channels often get sore, 'scalds and you are obliged to relief two or three times during night. ther consult a good, reliable ician at once or get from your nacist about four ounces of Jad its; take a tablespoonful in a of water before breakfast for a days and your kidneys will then : fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon 3 combined with lithia, and has used for generations to clean id stimulate sluggish kidneys, also neutralize acids in the urine so it "mo longer irritates, thus-énding blad- der weakness. 'Jad Salts is a life saver for regu- lar meat eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot injure and makes a delightful, effervescent lithia-water drink. pe -- Fifty years ago the consumption Of paper collars in the United States amounted to 225,000,000 a year. THE GREAT LEVIATHAN, By D. A. Barker, Ryerson Press, To- rontos Price $2.00. The hero of the book, Tom Seton, fs introduced while still a child and his training, surroundlrgs and ideas placed before the reader. From a rather quiet boy he devélops into an exceedingly active idealist, with large ideas of conquering the world and revolutionizing everything in the space of a very short time. Needless to say, he did not succeed in making the old world very much dieffrent, but he made himself much different and acquired a considerable amount of valuable experience during the bumptuous period. It is really the same old story of the ambitions and dreams of a boy, but it is told in a way that gives it a new charm. The narrative does not drag for an in- stant. In the end Tom Seton meets with failure in the pursuit of his mighty and, of course, impossible aims, but he survives the failure as most young men do. The story is there but the book does not depend on the plot of the yarn alone. The author, who seems unfamiliar by name, hag a re- markable way of advancing many quaint and true philosophies about life in general and boys in particular without robbing the story of any of its interest or attractiveness to the average reader. It is a wonderful start for a new novelist. YELLOW SOAP: By Katharine Haviland Taylor, pub- lished by Doubleday, Page & Co., New York. Price $1.75 nets This is a book of great originality in which the author shows a re- markable knowledge of human na- ture. The characters are drawn with vividness, the style is particularly | pleasing, and the interest of 'the ireader is sustained throughout. The delightful romance which touches the life of Delia Riggs' son, at every point of his varied life from tramp to wealth is charmingly told. Delia Riggs is herself the charm of the book--the woman whose ambition was to make her son a gent and who felt the compulsion in death that she could say, 'I gotta die like the mother of a gent," is a character sketch that is drawn with inimitable skill. The book will repay the reader as few of the deluge of this year's novels can hope to do. ONE AFTER ANOTHER. By Stacy Aumonier. The MacMillan Company, Toronto: Price $2.25. From the ages of ten and thirteen the author traces the lives of Tom | Purbeck and his older sister through the course of their experiences in this world, through their early loves land hates, through married life and {into old age and the joy of being | grandparents. The father of the two {was English, the mother, dead and [followed by a stepmother, a Span- {fard. Their home was in part of [the public-house run by the father, not the ordinary squalid den which the name usually conveys, but a re- spectable and money-making place |of refreshment of some considerable size, Tom, the boy, tells the story |and ig acquainted with every part of |it on account of his intimacy with his | sister, Laura, The way in which the ancestry and habits of their parents |shaped the actions of their lives, and, in turn, the lives of their children, is clearly shown and gives the book its title, "One After Amother." ; | The reasoning and thoughts of "Tom are amusing and interesting. Very cleverly the writer shows the change in his attitude and ideas with the change in his age, surroundings i { several and associates. His philosophies and ideas crop out all over the story and FEMINISMS are certainly worth reading. One of | Robert Page Lincoln, etc., need no! the first of these which stands out prominently is his discovery that he understood women, a conclusion brought about when he watched the actions of his sister in connection with throwing flies into the web of a voracious old spider. 'Later in the narrative he changed his conclusion times which is not so ex- traordinary, but is interesting be- cause it is human. We all want to read something that we can under- stand and sympathize with, not what is beyond our ken. The boy and girl go 6n through their lives with probably a few more up and downs than the average per- son would have, and finally arrive at old age with many recollections be- hind them. Mr. Aumonier sketches the thoughts, emotions and actions of the people in this book with a style which holds the reader to the end. DEAD MEN'S MONEY. By Jv 8. Fletcher. The Macmillan Company, Toronto. Price $2.25 We have here a very engrossing mystery story which at times merges into double identities and two or three names for each person. It is the old plot of the imposter in the place of the righfful heir to some estate and title, the mystery sur- rounding his occupation of that place, the murders and crimes inci- dental to the struggle for the owner- ship, the unexpected situations and finally the terrible end of the villain and the triumphant installation of the true heir in the place of his an- cestors. It is a good story as blood-and- thunder stories go, and there cer- tainly are some phases of the plot which required a lot of planning to perfect. The narration is consecu- tive and clear, the description is vivid enough to bring shudders, and on the whole it is a stirring tale of dark plots. For the person who likes the mys- tery and murder yarn it is an ideal book. There are, however, a few too many of these dark and desperate stories. They are suitable for pass- ing an idle hour in search of thrills, or perhaps as an aid {2 ine study of the method of criminals, but they ac- complish no general good. They do not brighten the heart nor bring peace for a few hours. In many cases they bring on a state of nervous apprehension which lasts for some time and is frequently injurious to the reader. But this has nothing to do with "Dead Men's Money," as a single instance. The reader will find himself drawn by the clever plot of the book and will be bound to finish it in spite of the nervous apprehen- sion. October Rod and Gun. Teeming with interest to all who have heard the Red Gods calling, rod and gun in Canada for October will especially appeal to followers of the trap-line. The leading story in this splendid issue of Canada's premier sportsmen's monthly is entitled, "An- imickiwash Lake." [Illustrated with six pages of photographs taken right on the Trap-Line by F. V. Williams, it will appeal to everyone who ever had dreams of capturing the many l fur-bearers which go to make Canada | the richest in wild life. George R. Belton tells in his own intimate man- ner how he has been mistaken for several kinds of wild animals, His story will be read with interest.

St An unusual fate has befallen a mystery story by Edgar Wallace, called "The Four Just Men," which is listed for early publication in the United States by Small, Maynard & Co. It has already appeared in Eng- land, and the Sinn Feiners have seized upon it as a sort of textbook. In every raid copies of it have been found, much to the bewilderment of the author, who has written to the English press that he had not supposed the book to have any po- litical significance whatever, and that his only object in writing it was to produce an interesting mystery story. Mr. Wallace has served as a private soldier in the British Army in Africa, has globe-trotted as a spec- ial correspondent, has had the edito- rial direction of an English society | journal, and has contributed short | stories to American magazines. He is | now making a visit to this country, "A Book of Boyhoods," by Miss E. M. Freyer, which E. P. Dutton & Co., will have ready within a week or two, will contain the stories of the boyhood years of nearly thirty of the men who have shaped the history, of their times, from Chaucer to the Am- | erican musician Edward MacDowell. | Included in it are Washington, | Burns, Leonardo: da Vinci, La Salle, | Foch, Rodin, Stevenson. For immediate publication Alfred A. Knopf has "John Murray IIL" written by John Murray IV., the fa- mous London publisher, who thus portrays the life and career of his father. The elder Murray was the friend of Livingstone, Metternich, Gladstone, Du Chaillu, Froude, Lecky and others of great achievement and importance during the Victorian ep- och. \ When William McFee, whose new | novel Doubleday, Page & Co., will publish this fall, returns from his present trip as chief engineer of the United Fruit steamer Turrialba, it will be to find awaiting for him another chapter of an international romance quite as exciting and color- ful as any he has ever written. It began during the World War when he met in Smyrna Mile. Pauline Kin- doff, a Bulgarian of part Italian ex- traction, and won her promise on' the first day of their acquaintance to marry him at once and go to Amer- ica. But he was serving on a British transport and she was an enemy sub- Ject, and so marriage had to be de- ferred until the end of the war. Fin- ally, after months of effort and long waiting, she succeeded in getting a passport from the Gre®k Government after trying many others. Almost a month was then consumed in the journey to New York, where she is now awaiting Mr. McFee's return. For August publication the Scrib- ners announce a novel by Gordon Hall Gerould, whose wife is Kathe- ring Fullerton Gerould, well known by her fiction and essays. It will bear the title, "Youth in Harley," and will deal with the experiences 51 a young college man in a New Eng- lsbd viliage, whither he went to teach.
