More white things are worn in the sum-
mer-lawns, hannels, muslins and so forth.
That means more washing. Likewise more
hard work-unless Fels-Naptha soap is used.
Fels- Naptha simplihes summer washing
and does it more satisfactorily. No hot
fire is needed. That means a good deal
when the thermometer is 90 in the shade.
Fels-Naptha does the washing thor
oughly in cold or lukewarm water. Cold
or lukewarm water saves the clothes Boil
ing and hot water weaken clothes so they
tear easily
Fels-Naptha will not harm the most
delicate fabric. Neither will it injure light
colored things which could not be washed
safely with other soaps or in hot water
The advantage of using Fels-Naptha
soap is the Fels-Naptha way of washing.
Don't cook your clothes. Use
Fels-Naptha. It does the work better in
cold or lukewarm water
Follow directions on the red and green
wrapper.

FRENCH HOME LIFE.
Some authentic and Charming
GHmpses of 1t.
CHATEAU AND COUNTRY LIFE IN FRANCE
BY Mary King Washington. Illustrated Svo,
PIP 1913 Charles Scribner's Sons.

CHATEAU AND COUNTRY LIFT, IN FRANCE
PIP. 353. Charles Scribners sons
The atmosphere Of domestic life is one of the
hardest things in thesworld to reproduce in a
book 1t is easy enough for an author to de-
scribe the broader, national traits OF people;
but rarely in the numerous volumes that are
supposed to make US acquainted with foreign
lands are we made to feel that have been
brought into contact with a single really repre-
sentative family The reason is. of course. that
few writer's have the opportunity not simply to
study the subject but TO make its spirit their
own. Nine. Washington, an American married
to q Frenchman. seems to have got to the very
heart OF French life and at the same time to
have preserved certain detachment from it, so
that she can describe 1t with positively artistic
appreciation of its character She has made it
the subject of a charming book.
Chateau life in France is inevitably changing
Old traditions fade. the old homes them
selves fall into new hands. The majorat ZEN

and as the fortunes must always be divided
among the children, it becomes more and more
difficult to keep up the large places. Life gets
dearer every day-fortunes don't increase-very
few young Frenchmen OF the upper classes do
anything The only way of keeping up the big
places is by making Il rich marrlage-the
daughter of a rich banker Industrial or an
American" The family which Nine. Wadding-
ton entered thirty years ago. lived In conditions
evidently untouched by modern social develop
ments. The Old chateau near the forest of VII

TO care for society. Books. music talk on seri-
Gus things. and the interests OF the newly mar

spiritually guided to do their best for each other
and their respective families" Her surprise
deepened when he proceeded to name some
others OF the family who had strayed a little
from the straight and narrow path, hoping they
would be brought To see. by Divine grace the
errors Of their ways" But she rapidly learned
to adapt herself 10 the sometimes quaint con-
serVatism of French manners

his victims The srimness of Mr. Trevena' S
narrative IS slightly relieved by the appealing
romance of Boobies, the love-child, with its
happy rmination; but even the author seems
TO have recognized a certain incongruity IN this
i'd Jllic by-plot for it is only rarely brought into
contact with the other threads Of the story
For the rest, he has succeeded in making the
persona -es of his moorland drama very real in
deed-dis tressingly real. 1t is possible that his
story may be salutary for the spirit but 1t IS
not to e recommended for relaxation
No one will doubt that in Judith of the Cum
berlands" the author writes of the land of her
heart She has felt the spell of its deep forests,
and she understands the proud, shy, passionate
nature Of the mountain dweller. Civilization has
not climbed very high up the slopes of the Cum
berland; and when it makes it's appearance 1t
does not receive cordial welcome. Greed Bon
bright the hero of Miss MacGowans story. has
returned to his chdhood's home, the Big Turkey
Track. as a newly elected Justice. He brings
with him some queer tangled city notions
of law and order which end by making him
dangerously unpopular with certain of his neigh
bors. Wildcat stills are in operation near the
Turkey Track; and the business, though never
openly mentioned, is known to everyone. and
held to be quite reputable. The suspicion gains
ground that Bonbright Is government spy.
Furthermore. his manifest popularity with the
young maidens of the district has aroused a
murderous jealousy in the hearts Of less favored
rivals. 1t is the devotion of Judith Barrier that
saves his life. Judith, in her outright feminin-
ity, her consuming desire to be loved. her I'M
