trary. The books are written with a view of teaching, in pleasant way, without any preaching at all, the ad- visibility of proper living, for both men and women.
 "Gilbert Neal" is a story just off the Harpers press, which is in a measure a little freer in expression than MT. liar den has formerly employed. But that
 does not do the book any harmon the contrary, when certain questions are to be gone into-things that We see and know all about all around us every day-why should not grown people read about them?
 The story deals with a minister of the gospel, who lived at Darley, Ga. north of Atlanta, and who was a seeker after an affinity" So busy in his search was he that he neglected his church, to say nothing of attention to the conventions. This preacher, one Rev. MT. Tidwell, was magnetic. dreamer. by temperament. fervent, of course, eloquent and gifted; yet as in real life some times, this preacher was thoroughly selfish in thought and deed and he was cursed with powerful sensual strain which he seemed unable to control. His wife knew all about him and his trifling ways and had suffered so from his conduct in many ways that she had drawn herself in as it were from her husband, whom she had loved devotedly when she married him. This book deals with one escapade of the Rev. MT. Tidwell in which he endeavored and almost succeeded in fascinating a Miss Neal, a lovely girl, the sister of Gilbert Neal. She had been fascinated by the dramatic personality of the preacher and in her inexperience had drifted into platonic affair with him.

Gilbert Neal is type of the sturdy Geor- gia mountaneer of the second genera tion, which MT Harben delights so to draw. Neal was the son of shiftless par ents: he was the sole member of the family with sufficient energy and ambi- ton to desire to improve on his material surroundings. Twice he had brought his farm to a fair state of productiveness, only to be again plunged into debt by the necessity of saving from prosecution David the scapegoat younger brother. who desired to acquire money without gard to the limitations of the law The sister of the minister Tidwell was a kind of fiy-up-the-creek girl, who didn't wish to marry the man she loved or go to work in preference to marrying q hated rich man; good gracious. no--she married the rich man of the village and gave him fits eyer thereafter. Served both of them right.
 The affair between Tldwell. the preach CT, and NeafS sister comes to a climax when tile former has induced the latter to take a trip with him to Atlanta The girl agrees to and does go to Atlanta, where this pair stop at the Kimball house, the understanding being that they are to be married so soon as the rever- end gentleman can get a divorce from his wife. But the girl wakes up, in the ho- tel in a measure, when she is able to read and understand correctly the dis gusting old preacher and repudiates him and his offers just at the time that the minister's wife. who has followed her lord and master (why do they always follow them? Why not get rid of that ilk? sees that Neals sister does not con- duct herself properly, and so reports it

'tis truly "The Man From Brodneys," but what's the difference? Nothing in name, certainly not to MT. McCutch con, names, situations, blondes or "brunes' do not phase MT. McCutcheon a little bit, and for why? It Is diffid ~ to say. Whether MT. McCutcheon W the song above referred to, or only us- eed by or sang 1t in his salad days, or the song was responsible for the eternal strawberry blonde in all ofeh is stories, who can tell? Certainly not this re- viewer, and he doesn't care. What he does care about is these continual eruptions from MT. McCutcheon being received literally with open pocket books by the buying public of this country. That must mean that the books are read, the sales indicating great decadence, worse than deterior- ation in this country.

"Have used Peruna for catarrh and
hay fever. The results being remark
able, can highly recommend it to all
who are suffering with the above dis
eases. I am happy to be able to say it
has helped me wonderfully"
What is known as hay fever is in
reality endemic catarrh, catarrhal
condition of the nose, throat, some
times the bronchial tubes, induced by
some local irritant.
The irritation is generally due to vege-
tai emanations Of some sort. Hay has
been suspected as being the cause of
this malady, hence its name, hay fever.
1t has been attributed to rag weed and
other vegetation also. 1t is q very
capricious disease, coming and going.
A medicine that will help one case may
not help another. Such treatment has
always been very uncertain and unsat-
