ONE-sIDED RECIPROCITY

1t appears that the agent of the Boston
merchants who desire to sell to and buy
more goods of Canada is again on his
rounds telling the people of Western cities
what a blessing it will be TO them to have
practical free trade between Canada and
the United States. "A few years ago that
agent illumined the minds of a few persons
in this city with his wonderful informa-
ton. 1t has been his business more or less
of his time for nearly twenty years He
was in Chicago on Saturday, where he was
banqueted. and he may come this way.
Reciprocity as applied to trade between
two nations, as the meaning of the word
implies. is based upon evidence that one
country produces merchandise of which the
other has meager supply. and in return
takes the products of the other country for
which it has a demand. No such conditions
exist between the United States and Can
ada. Except a little lumber, Canada pro-
duces nothing of which we have not an
abundance and often a surplus. Canada
purchases much merchandise of US be-
cause il cannot be produced at home, but
on all such merchandise the Canadian duty
on British imports is p per cent. less than
on American. Yet Canada often appears

The Tickle Wheel.

Mr. Henry Thew Stephenson, author
of the book named above, is profess
sor of history in the State Univer-
sity at Bloomington, Ind. He has al
ready submitted TO the public a novel,
PATRON Van Volkenburg' in which he de-
picts life in the early days of New York,
and which has for principal characters
the Dutch merchants who patronized the
pirate ships and were more than suspected
of being in partnership with these lawless
freebOOters who ravaged land and sea.
"A Tickle Wheel" can hardly be called an
historical novel, though its scenes are laid
at the time just subsequent to the death of
Queen Elizabeth, during the journey of her
successor from his small northern king
dom to the wealthy and turbulent capital
of England, and. for a brief period. after
his accession to the throne. The changes in
the government figure in the tale only as
they affect the fortunes of one of the lead
ing characters.
Except for the presence of the one villain.
Peter julie, who is really the chief person
age of the tale, the theme of the story is
OF love and adventure; love that is faithful
10 the end and that by its truth and stead
fastness, casts a glamour of romance over
all the changing scenes and brings happi-
ness to those who, in spite of all obstacles
and dangers, keep faith with their dear
ones.
The heroine is Cecily, daughter and heiress
Oh lnOIldS CONeIQdIt, q wealthy merchant
and heavy-handed father who hesitates
neither in the bestowing of abusive epithets
upon his daughter nor in the administration
of Christening blows upon her shoulders
with a heavy strap, the favorite per
suader' of the doughty fathers of that
period. In spite OF her beating, Cecily is
firm in her refusal to give up the choice of
her heart because of his poverty.
Shakespeare and Ben Jonson appear at
intervals and lend verisir'ilitude to the
tale. The author has devoted one chapter
to the description of the Globe Theater in
London where 5000 people assembled to
view the play of LAS You Like 1t" in which
Shakespeare appears as one OF the actors.
Cicely and her friend Barbara, protected
| by masks and accompanied each by her
! chosen knight, have contrived to steal
! away to London and are members of the
| enthusiastic audience. Cicely weeps over
! the woes of Rosalind, little thinking that
| she herself, before many days have passed,
will leave her home i'm a disguise like that
| of Rosalnd and, encOuntering the crafty
Peter julie, will defeat his evil designs, and,
| through his downfall, secure her own safety
| and bring the troubled events 10 a joyous
termination.
The author shows throughout that he has
| devoted careful attention to the setting of
| his plot and has cOnScientiOusly studied the
| life and manners of the period. His style
| is lucid, his descriptions clear and his char
| acters move through the scene with vigOr
and animation. Altogether, he has COM

The Sign of the Prophet.

Dr. James B. Naylor follows his first
story of village life in southern Ohio with
one which is laid in early times and deals
with the Harrison campaign against the
Indians and the battle of TippecanOe. Gov
ernor Harrison and Tecumseh are intro

Prophet is a talismanic ring which the
celebrated chief is represented as wearing
and bv means of which he welded a Won
derful and mysterious influence over his
followers Major Daviess, Captain Dubois
and other officers of the Harrison eXpedi-
ton also figure in the story. The hero is a
young soldier who goes from Ohio to join
Harrison's expedition, and the heroine is a
pretty white maiden who has lived for
a long time as captive among the Indians
and whom the hero finally marries after
which they both become rich and happy
The story is rather crudeiy constructed.
