Awakening of
Helena Richie
By Magaret Delard

People will not turn aside from
the whirl and absorption of real
life to linger fondly over a book
unless that book outrivals life
itself and caves a spell of almost
magic interest.
The threatening HHelena Richie
is such a book.
Far and wide it is being read
and praised, and read again. Such
a concord and volume of praise
has perhaps never before been
evoked by any novel of modern
times.
GA perfect book" says the
N. T. Times.
"As an achievement in letters,
this story of passion and folly,
repentance and remuneration, de-
serves to be ranked among the
chiefest examples of American
imaginative writing" --PhiLadeA

Judging from the way business has
increased on the river during the
past several months. and the outlook
being promising for an increase this
fan and winter there will not only
be plenty for the boats on the Ohio
river to get away with the business
There is really a demand in many
trades already for more boats. and a
number are being built. The rail-
roads can't do It all. and the boats
will get the bulk of the business.
Come on with your nine-foot stage

build the boats. and It won't take
long for the boats to get the business.

One of the most stubborn blazes

ed. a large proportion of the filling
being composed of paper and straw.
Sparks from engines crossing on
the trestle of the Illinois Central dis
tributing track. ignited the straw
and paper and the fire burned down
