bination of George Barr McCutcheon,
Robert W. Chambers, Rex Beach,
Margaret Deland and all the other
popular fiction writer's of the day.
A rich young society girl, Diane
Westfall, tires of the conventions OF
life and strikes out into nature in
green van. Love of the open nature
runs all through the book. Hints OF
Gene Stratton Porter's style are seen
in this. The descriptions of the ever
glades of Florida have real merit.
A young aviator (modern novels
must make the hero an aviator, OF
course) falls near her camp and she
nurses him into health. Into the plot
comes a prince from Houdania and
other mobiles of a mythical European
country, reminding the reader OF
Graustark. Years before the real
heir to the Houdanian throne had be-
come digusted with Imperialism and
fed to this country. Chance has
caused the prince to believe that
Diane and her cousin, Carl. are the
defendants of the prince.
Some of the free love and sex prob
lens of modern fiction are mixed into
the novel by the beliefs and practices
of the father of Diane and the mother
of Carl. Carl is young man of ten
der sensibilities and sympathy with
an astonishing capacity for alcohol.
He is full Of whims and fancies.
The book is never dull. The author,
Leona Dalrymple, is master OF the
art of going from one stirring scene
to another When Diane insisted on
making a covered wagon trip from
Connecticut to Florida, the young
aviator follows her closely and pro-
tects her from danger. He wins her
love at last in spite of the treachery
of rivals. (Reilly and Britton Com
pany, Chicago; s1.35.)

WRITES HISTORY OF STATE TRIALS
Dean Iawson's 2O-Volume Work Tells of
Famous American Criminal Gases From
Colonial Days to Present.

! contrary to the Bible and men were
hanged for burning a house. and the
days when the same crime involves nc
greater punishment than parole OF
/ good behavior. These are the dramas
of real life.
( There will be twenty volumes OF
American State Trials" The present
| volume is the first of the series. II
contains nearly 900 pages and includes
"A cases Most of the trials are com
paratively brief. Ten of them involve
murder or manslaughter. Religious
persecution. race feeling. piracy
arson, libel. procurement, contempt
are also illustrated by interesting
trials
One particularly pathetic case is
John Try. who was tried and executed
in New York. in 1741. on trumped-up
charges. backed by questionable evil
dence of being a Roman priest and in
citing negroes to crime. The animus
intolerance and stupidity displayed by
the attorney general and the supreme
court of the Province of New York in
the case of this scholarly and inno-
cent man is beyond present day un-
derstanding. and the whole trial is a
travesty of justice.
The accused was allowed no counsel
he was denied a copy OF the chief in
dictment and practically condemned
without a hearing.
One case which reminds one of the
Titanic disaster is that of Alexander
H. Holmes. tried in Philadelphia in
1912. A ship struck an iceberg and
sunk with number of her passengers
! and crew: life boats were swung of
with all they could hold. and one OF
| them being overloaded, a number OF
passengers, both men and women
were thrown overheard to save the
rest. The boat was picked up and the
survivors returned to Phlladelphla
where Holmes, the officer in charge
was indicted for manslaughter.

Judge J. ID. Lawson's Office in the
| Law Building resembles a private Ii
brary rather than an Office. The entire
wall space is devoted to shelves and
bookcases which are filled with
books: books are stacked along the
side of the wall on the floor: the table
/ is covered with books and even the
/ Judges desk contains catalogues OF
rare books.
/ All these books Judge Lawson said
he had been collecting for many years.
He bought some of them at book
stands i'm Europe and many he ordered
from the catalogues of old and rare
books.
These books form the source of ma
terial for Judge LawsOn's newest work

and founder of this important special
collection of books is William Keeney

American State Trials" % which
the first volume has just been issued,

law. 1t is the only publication that
gives faithful and accurate record of
the great criminal trials from the be-
ginning of American courts down to

One interesting and important fea-

now WILL THE WOMEN VOTE!

The whole country is watching llli-
nois today because of the municipal
elections being held all over the state,
in all but a few of which women are
voting for the first time since their
enfranchisement. And the big question
at issue is liquor. How will the wO-
men vote?
Ever since women began demanding
the franchise there has been a great
argument as to how they would use it;
would they stand up for better moral
and social conditions. would they re-
main Indifferent to their privilege and
duty. or would they support the bosses
and present evil conditions? In some
500 Illinois towns in which there are
$500 saloons. that question is present
in today's election. The women's vote
is an uncertain quality.
Many of the dry" leaders believe
that 30 per cent of the women will vote
against the saloons. but others are
waiting until after the election to
make their estimates. Ii is conceded
by both sides that the women of the
smaller towns are certain TO vote
against the saloons, but it is their
city sisters whose position is doubtful
This question. then, of how will the
women vote. has at last come TO an is
sue, and tomorrow the answer will be
known. And the number of women
voting today is large enough to NIKE
their action a pretty certain indication
of what the women of the whole cOun-
try would do in such an election.

The network Of nerves in your body,
like the network of wires in a burglar
alarm system, gives quick warning
when anything is going wrong inside.
Looking at it in this way pain is
useful alarm. Now. kidney weak
ness is a dangerous thing-a condition
not to be neglected-and it is wise
to know and pay attention to the early
alarm signals of sick kidneys.
Backache is a common warning Of
congestion or Inflammation in the kid
neys. It may be dull, nagging pain, or
a sharp twinge when STOPPING or lift
ing. There are likely to be disorders
OF urination, dizziness, headaches, and
drowsy, respondent, tired feelings.
1t is very hard to strengthen weak
kidneys at first, but neglect invites
rheumatic or neuralgia attacks, gravel,
dropsy, and fatal Bright's disease.
AS special medicine for weak kid
neys Doan's Kidney Pills have been
used for years all over the civilized
world. and surely are considered reli-
able. The patient can always help the
medicine immensely, however, by diet
ing lightly, using little or no liquor,
tea or coffee, keeping regular hours
and drinking lots Of pure water.

FEED MILL ON FARM
is A HANDY THING
Grinder Is One of Best Economic
erS Farmer Can Own for
Preparing Grain Feed.

On any farm where there is stock
to feed, whether cows, sheep, hogs or
poultry, the feed mill or grinder is
one of the best economizers of food
one can have. These mills are made
in various sizes and suited to the
large or the small farm. With such
a mill one is in position to give va
riety in form of feeding that is i'm
possible unless one is prepared to buy
various kinds of ground food.
Where corn constitutes the main
food, as is the case on most farms, it
is plain to see that it is not advis-
able to feed it in the same form all
the time. With the feed grinder it
is possible to mix the several ground
grains in small quantities which one
would hardly buy. Where poultry
keeping is a part Of the farm indus
try there will be found abundant use
for the feed grinder and it will pay a
good profit on the investment.
