robbed of much Of their beauty and
symmetry-:Ume Of them left almost
Iimbless. ::
The crash of. falling trees could
be heard on the mountains in
every direction, and travelling the
was only, tollerably safe
Nearly all the telephone lines
entering town were. putout OF com:

wires were broken down. Work OF
restoring the lines and clearing the
pike of broken timber began on
Tuesday.

THE PLACE BEYOND THE
WINDS. BY Harriet T. Comstock.
Published by Doubleday, Page &
Co, Garden City, N. Y. Price
$1.25.
To those who have read Mrs.
Comstock's impressive novel
Joyce Of the North Woods" her
latest book, "The Place Beyond
the Winds" will need no elaborate
introduction. This too, is a story
of the Canadian forest country
where men and women are moved
by primitive human instincts. Just
as Mrs. Gene Stratton Porter has
delighted us through her stories
Of rural Indiana people, their
sw eetness, their simplicity and
broad sympathy, SO has Mrs.
Comstock created a bond Of feel
ing quite as appealing and earnest
W 18th the people of the far north
country, the people she knows
and loves so we'll. No one can
read unmoved this winsome love
story of a charming mountain girl
and her homefolk. Priscilla, the
hero inc, is hedged about by aus
tere parental authority which
many times made the way seem
hard, but in her struggle to reach
the higher and broader things of
life that ever stirred her soul she
was aided by her loyal friend the
schoolmaster, Anton Farwell.
All in all this is an interesting
and exceedingly well told story.
The author possesses the power to
peer deep into the mysteries OF
human nature, and in THE Place
Beyond the Winds she has given
a moving vivid, uplifting romance
of human love and ambition.

STEREOPTICON
ENTERTAINMENT
At The Gay Theatre Sunday, Oc-
tober 25th, at 2::3O P. NJ.
and Up. M.

This entertainment will consist
Of stereopticon pictures and a
lecture on Egypt and the Holy
Land by Miss jolly Crawley, who
is a famous American artist and
who has travelled much in the
countries she SO graphically por-
trays in story and picture. Miss
Erawley has about one hundred
and seventy-five slides made from
photographs Of places and peo-
pie as they were in the Holy Land
and in Egypt before the time of
Christ, and in addition to showing
the pictures she talks in an ex-
tremely interesting way Of, the
many interesting things she saw
while travelling in these countries.
Miss Crawley is an artist who
has achieved high distinction; she
has a studio in Paris and her
pictures have taken many prizes,
among them being two medals at
the Appalachian Exposition at
Knoxville.
While the two entertainments
are on the same subject they are
entirely different, and one is not a
repetition of the other. The ad-
mission is ten cents and the en-
tertainment is given for the bene-
tit of the M. E. church, South.

! ALTOGETHER JANE, BY Her.
self. Published by Mitchell Ken
nerly, N. Y. Price $1.35.
This is a remarkable book, be-
ing the life-story of a remarkable
woman. In it she tells in a plain
yet fascinating way Of her most
unusual experiences beginning
with babyhood and extending
through to middle life. 1t is a
clear-cut story of her ups and
downs, her struggles with poverty,
her passion for achievement, her
groupings through the. shadow,
which sometimes give way to sun
shines, her noble and unselfiSh
respone to duty, all make vivid
picture of her life which is dupli-
cate of that whichiS lived by most
women the world over. No more
interesting book has come our
way and, while it appeals to all, it
has an especial charm for women
whom it will impress with its
quaint humor, its pathos and good
fellowship. Through the book
there runs a silver thread Of good
sense and philosophy that rises at
times to the dignity of real preach
ing. Altogether Jane is a story
to smile over, to cry over, to en-
JOY and keep.
LIES LURE, by John G.
Neihardt. Published by Mitchell
Kennerley. New York. Price $1.25.
When Mr.. Neihardt' wrote The
Dawn-Builder and The Lonesome
Trail he set a high standard for
himself which he has fully meas
ured up to in Lies Lure, a bril-
liant, red-blooded story Of the
strenuous.lif life in a Western min
ing camp. He peoples his book
with real characters and makes
them live before our eyes in vivid
Western style. ,
The author knows the Western
country and its people, and as he
holds the mirror up to human ma
ture as found there the reflection
flashed back upon the reader is
