A BOOK BY A PORTLAND WOMAN


The Lothrop Publishing Company of
Boston announce among their spring
books Germany; Her People and Their
Story, by Augusta Hale Clifford. In their
prospectus the Publishers say:
Mrs. Clifford has prepared herself fer
this book BY the experiences Of . long
resdenos abroad. and by faithful AT
devoted stady Of al. phases of German lie
and history from the earliest times To tt .
present day. The book she has written
the first popular story Of Germany,
especially prepared for American readers,
and studied from an American stand
point. In this light the book Is unique.
It stands alone as the latest and most
complete, while yet brief and condensed
story OF the German Empire. from It's
beginnings to It's present proud position
among .he world leaders, and Is pecu
liarly adapted, not only to the enlightsn-
ment Of the American native born, but
also for that "natiun Of young German
Americans" SO the author explains.
"w hose fathers and mothers years ago
cam to our shores and who themselves
desire to obtain o knowledge, from its
origin, Of the country Of their ancestors.
"It has been my hope" continues Mrs.
Clifford "that while gaining by means of
this information a love of the Fatherland
they may ut the same time fmbibe patri'
otto sentiment with regard to our own
county," "Germanyi Her People and
Their Story, is at once comprehensive,
interesting. and picturesque thoroughly
up to date, reliable, and timely.

For more than thirty years Dr. R. v.

larger practice than many physicians who
charge large fees for advice. DIR. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery is made without

his extended experience with disease. 1t
is a temperance medicine, pure and simple,
and without alcohol whisky, sugar or
syrup to preserve its properties, keeps per
fectly in any climate for any length Of time.
Others may initiate the remedy; they can
not initiate its cures. Let no one talk you
into using an imitation medicine as sub

Another book, which is evsn more I'M
pleasant, for quite other reasons, is Mr..
Frank Morris's McTeague, a novel which
has so much power as to even indicate
genius in it's author, and yet is so brutally
realistic that one shrinks from the COM
pany into which it brings one, and longs
to fling the volume into the fire. Why
should we wade through all sorts Of
denominations in literature, descend into
sluins. and hobnob with disgusting Great
ures whom we would avoid like pesti-
lence in real life, when thee are worlds
of sweetness and light souls and sub
stance of beauty .sand charm all about uss
1t is not question OF whether this work
is we'll done, but of whether it was worth
doing at all.
The scene of Nc Teag ne Is set in the city
of San Francisco. The characters are Of
the lower middle class, and are drawn
with coarse, heavy strokes effective, but
unredned. The colors are dashed on in
huge splashes. and one must stand at a
great distance from the thing and judge
it as a whole, or the roughness and vul-
garity of portions become uncomfortable. !.

such conscientious and sincere work
should be lavished upon material SO re-
pulsive. New York: Doubleday & Nc.
