oine. Alfred Is good-natured, shrewd young fellow whose main occupation is keeping store, though he is always ready for a trade, no matter how lit- tie connected with his regular busi- ness.
 After waiting many years, Alfred has just married the woman he has always loved, his affection for her having en- dured through the years of her marriage to another man. and a reasonable period of widowhood. Alfred's happiness, how ever, is somewhat marred by the fact that his wife insists upon having her first husbands parents live with her. As the father-in-law for whom Alfred Is in no way responsible proves to be a garrulous old simpleton, fond of ill-timed practical jokes, the arrangement Is pro- ductive of anything but restful home atmosphere. Yet, MT. Harben has made all the people of the story adapt them selves to this strange situation with a half humorous matter-of-factness.
 Not only that but it Is only recently that the present Mrs. Henley has heard of the death of her first husband, Dick Wrinkle, who has long been lost to view as a wanderer in the wide world. Mrs. Henley feels as if recently bereaved and insists upon having monument set up in the village cemetery and a funeral ser mon preached. Alfred thus has the pleas ure of being asked to attend the be- lated obsequies of his predecessor.
 All the while that Alfred seems to be mixed up in family relations, he calls for sympathy elsewhere. Next door to him lives Dixie Hart an attractive young girl, who does mans work in trying to support herself and her widowed moth- er She is pathetically anxious to marry and be rid of her burdens, even going to tha Ienpth of corresponding with a man she has never seen. Alfred, who understands all this. consistently acts as Dixies friend. eventually rescuing her from the clutches of the village skin flint, who owns the land upon which she lives. Unconsciously the two fall in love, but on Alfred's part there is no thought of unfaithfulness to his wife, notwith- standing that monument to Dick.
 will you be surprised to know, or learn, rather, that Dick Wrinkle wasn't dead, that the situation is solved in a way con-

 (The Macmillan Co.)
 Let's forget, if we can, those two books just mentioned and take up for a mo- ment or two something really worth while.
 For, on April 1s. 1s1O 1t was just 20 years since Benjamin Disraeli died at Hughenden Manor in Buckinghamshire, England leaving his valuable papers to the custody and discretion of his pri- vate secretary, Lord Rowton. At the latter's death the famous correspondence was passed over to number of execu- tors, of whom Lord Rothschild was one.
 Then 1t was decided to have the long awaited biography done and MT. Money penny, a well-known journalist connect e6 with the London Times was selected to do the work and since then he has been engaged in the task. And what @ task 1t has been can be appreciated when it Is known that 1t required some 70 large boxes to hold the Beaconsfleld pa pers

AInslsa's Greatest Need Is Fuel

From the Washington Star
 Alaskan industrial development has come to a standstill on the coast, owing to the lack of cheap fuel This is the report brought from Alaska by A. Fl. Brooks, in charge of the Alaska work of the geological survey, who has Just returned from field season in the big territory. The people of the territory are in the rather peculiar position of having a large, cheap and very desir- able coal supply right under their feet. and not being able to mine a ton of it. The railroads and other industries that want cheap coal have to depend on Brit ish Columbia and Japan, which send a little coal. not very high grade, at from slf to SIT a ton. The difference between this price and s coal. which might be mined in the territory, marks the line between success and failure in indus- trial enterprises.
 Much of the coal land is unsurveyed--- in fact, practically all of it-and until there are maps from which claims can be located, nobody can get a patent to 8 claim.

 "John Marsh's Millions" a Novel by

 co. w. Dillingham; Co.)
 In novels made from plays, Messrs. Klein and Hornblow have exposed and flayed this, that and the other thing. In "The Lion and the Mouse" we had our attention drawn first on the stage, then in a book, to the growing peril of colossal fortunes. "The Third De- gree" attacked that police inquisitorial system, cruel and illegal.
 Messrs Klein and Hornblow's new book, John Marsh's Milions." deals with the delays of the law, corrupt lawyers, the mockery of justice and also with peril few of us realize is right here in our midst, namely, the horror of the private insane asylum to which any interruptions person. inter- ested for sordid reasons in getting

 The plot of the story deals with this: John Marsh, the great steelmaker, dies leaving millions. His brother, a scoun- drel and spendthrift. believes he Is the sole heir, but unknown to him, John has married secretly and made new will, leaving all to his daugh ter.
 The girl comes to claim her inher- itance. The spendthrift. furious, con- tests the will and aided by a corrupt rascally lawyer with a strong polit- ical pull. succeeds in so blocking the wheels of justice that the case hangs for years.
 Finally the court has to decide on the facts, but the uncle succeeds i'll getting himself appointed guardian of the girl. Having the girl thus under his control he determines to stop at nothing. not even @ crime. to cover up his rascality.
 With the aid of his lawyer crony the spendthrift- t-uncle-guardian secures a medical commission to consign his niece to lunatic asylum.
 There are exciting times while all this is being done--certainly. And the answer? And where is love? Well, the uncle-spendthrift-g guardian had step- son. The step-son is the answer. And he rescued Paula from the asylum-and there's your lovei

 Well, well, nobody ever knew about the disappearance of the jewels and Marjorie, by the time she met her old lover in the far east, was too anx- fous to find the man to let ancient suspicious interfere with her romance However, to this one woman whom he so dearly loves and ought to love under the circumstances, Bruce does explain.

 The press stated some time since that MT. Harben had been spending some time at his old home in Geor- gia. The result of that stay--Mr. Har- ben, if he continues to write Of North Georgia, should come oftener and stay longer-is very evident in his new novel recently from the press, Dixie Hart" The new novel is better than anything MT. Harber has written for some time. Of course, there are geni- uses and geniuses who can remain away from the scene of their stories and produce the goods.

 Accordingly when the contest for the best beaten biscuit was announced determined 10 compete Not knowing that the contest cooking school, blind advertisement in the interest o any particular manufacturer, purchased the most heahfu material principle of which the shortening
 baked my biscuit, submitted them for the inspection of the judges retained by the newspaper in the interest of the uaCturer Of certain shortening and the first prize
 Then to my surprise, discovered that the contest was hemed by conditions These conditions specified the use of shortening made by the manufacturer who paying the newspaper to conduct this cooking school Instead of using that shortening had used Snowdnft Hogless Lard man- factred by The Southern Cotton Oil Company which knew from long experience to be the best and the most heahfu shortening the market My use of this shortening was through ignorance of the conditions and certain knowledge that the best results at the least expense could be produced With SnoWdr The fact that my biscuit awarded first prize bears out my opinion That is what thought the cook ing school hoped to accomplish.
 As soon as learned the conditions of the contest of course declined to accept the prize even though biscuit had for SnoWdri Hogess Lard the best shortening the market will be interested to know that judges retained the interest of competitive manufacturer awarded the prize to biscuit baked with SnOWdrift
