LITERARY NOTES.

James Oliver Curwood has written
another novel Of animal life He be-
ieves that it is a more absorbing story
than "Kazan," his story of a wolf-dog
which attracted such widespread at
tention q year ago. The new novel is
entitled The Grizzly" It, like his
other stories, is to be published first
as a serial in the Red Book magazine
The opening instalIment is in the Jan
uaTy issue. Mr.. Curwood seems 10 be
the one writer who can build an ami
NAL into a more interesting hero than
d human being He certainly has done
this in the opening installment of
The Grizzly" The story opens with
the first experience with man of an
enormous bear that has ruled a range
of the Rockies in British Columbia
For the first time the bear knows fear
after he has felt the burn and pain OF
a bullet When Mr.. Curwood writes
of bears he writes as one who knows,
for he has not only hunted them with
great success, but he has spent months
in studying them. This issue of the
Red Book also contains installments
Of THE Thirteenth Commandment"
by Rupert Hughes, and The Proof of
the Pudding" by Meredith Nicholson
Among its - short stories one finds
Kettles and Bells" which was the
last story completed by George Fitch
before his death; new story by 0pie

PRAISES MEDICINE

Another testimonial which bespeaks
the merits of Tanlac, the Master Med
ieine" now being introduced in Rock
Island, is the statement which was
made last Monday by Charles Troop,
miner. who has resided in the town
of Bissell, Ill, for the last 40 years
and who Is we'll known in that com
munity. Mr. Troop was highly pleased
with the results which he had obtained
from the use Of Tanlac, and in regard
to his Improvement had the following
to say:
Before l began taking TanIac, I was
q pretty sick man. / had not felt well
for long time, and though | was able
to 60 about my work, l felt weak and
all tired out. My stomach was all out
OF order and did not care for any
thing to eat. At night ! was restless
and could not sleep When l would get
I'D In the morning | would feel just as
tired as IL | had not been TO bed at all.
/ tried several remedies to see II /
could not regain some of my lost
strength but none Of them seemed to
do me any real good. was speaking
to a friend of mine about my condition
recently and he asked me If / had
tried Tanlae. He said that he had
heard it was helping people who were
in the same fix that was, SO | came
TO Springfield and bought a bottle.
Il was surprised at the change that
took place in my condition. | want To
tell YOU that Tanlae is all right, if it
will help everyone as it has helped me.
Since taking the medicine feel
whole lot better in several ways. !
sleep better at night and feel like
another person when / get up in the
morning. Ny appetite is improving
every day and | am always glad when
the dinner bell rings. The old tired
and WORKOUT feeling which was with
me so long has gene away and seem
TO have strength and energy with
which to 60 about my work. Tanlae is
q fine medicine, and | am sure 1t will
aa,n anyone who will give IL a fair
trial

BEARS DOMINATE
THE WHEAT LIST
All Conditions simultaneously Favor
downward Trend OF Quotations
in Market.

Chicago, Nov. 23.--Bears had an ad-
vantage In the wheat market today ow-
ing to favorable weather, continued
liberal receipts and to lower cable
quotations. New high records for
ocean freight rates tended to discour-
age the bulls. Unwillingness of own
ers to send vessels to the Mediterran-
can was special element OF depres-
sion. Opening prices here, which
ranged from 2. TO 11sc lower, with De-
cember at f,02& to 103, and May at
Los to l.05ss, were followed by only
slight rallies.
subsequently, weakness increased
because OF announcement that for the
first time this season the worlds
available supply total exceeded the COR
responding figures of year ago. A
sharp rally ensued when British de-
malls were published that any Greek
ships were being held up or that q
blockade Of Greece was In force. The
close WAS nervous at the same as yes
terday's finish to 14c higher with De-
cember 1.03& and May 103ss.
Corn was strong on account of light
receipts, There was said to be an
active demand from industries. After
opening shade off to 1s0Ac up, the
market scored moderate general ad-
vance.
