Angels" shows, if anything, a more mel lowed art, surer touch, while it sounds the depths of human character with mastery and insight far beyond those earlier books. Among the novels of dis tinction and enduring worth which the present wear may bring forth, it will lave undisputed place.
 THE CURVED BLADES" By Caro-
 lyn Wells. Illustraed by Gayle Hos
 ilins. J. B. I.ippincott Company, pub
 fishers, Philadelphia.
 Miss Wells has written other detective stories again and again she has made Ter host of readers sit up until the early hours of the morning unraveling her mysteries, but every reader, and there will be a host of them, must tense, the curve of the blades q little more difficult to follow in her new novel than in any of her other successes.
 Fleming Stone is with us again. If you are unacquainted with this cunning sleuth you have missed meeting the best detective in American fiction. What do you think he does in this story? You could never guess! Not only does he unravel a murder mystery as calculating and cruel as it was hidden, but also, now, gentle readers, who have followed
 
 through those weird adventures in which the smiles of pretty women have been as nothing to him, hold your breath, for we must tell you that your hero has fallen in love. If there was one thing that could make Stone a more human and interesting figure it would be to have him engage in an affair of the
 heart This is what Miss Wells has done and the result is superb.
 toct Of xre.+a to1a ic you know the complete plot. We will just indicate how matters get under way. Miss Lucy Darlington is very rich woman, and lives at her great show place upon Long Island. She had the perfect old Nick of temper and in the first two chapters shows herself to be as disagreeable a dowager as you could well find. In the house are Miss Frayne a paid companion, Pauline, Miss Car rington S niece, and Haviland, a nephew who took care of her affairs There is also French maid fortune hunting count neighbor who often comes to play at bridge.
 The night before the tragedy the three young people are especially exasperated by the ferocious tongue lashings admin istered by the lady. It was the eve- ming that the count is thought to have put the question of marriage! The next morning she is found dead sitting pla- cidly in her chair facing her dressing table. In one hand is the glove of the | French count, around her neck is q paper snaze-she hated snakes-and upon 1 her face a beatific smile The back of l Ter head had been crushed in by some l heavy instrument The first thing was ! robbery, but in the autopsy it is estab- l lished that the woman had died of aco- l mite poisoning some three hours before

be cooled, not by the watch, but until an egg when it is placed against tho cheek feels neither warm nor cold.
 On the evening of the eighteenth day the eggs should be turned for the last time, and the machine closed until the hatch IS completed. At this time some operators sprinkle the eggs with water having about the temperature of the eggs. This may or may not be advisable, depending upon the type of machine used. and the conditions under which it is operated. The idea Is to help soften or disiategrate the shell, thus making it easler for the chick to liberate itself at pipping tirne. The directions that accom- pany the machine, and little practical experience will soon enlighten the op- orator as to the best methods.
 Hundreds of thousands of small flocks of poultry all over the country testify that the hen is profitable. The question then arises: Can the large flock be made equally profitable? It can and in next weeks article, entitled Modern Methods and Big Business In Poultry Culture" the writer will discuss some of the labor saving systems that make 1t possible.

SADIE LOVE
 By Avery Hoopwood. Illustrated. The
 John Lane Co, publishers, New
 York.
 "Sadie Love-" made from the play of that title, which has held Broadway enthralled the past winter, is stun ming story which is sure to be of in- terest to everybody who likes clever reading.
 At the beginning we find our heroine. "Sadie Love- married to an Italian prince.
 She decides quite quickly after ans wering a telephone call that she has married the wrong man and will not go on the honeymoon. A woman who had once thought herself the twin soul of the prince calls upon her, and then she decides that she will go on the wedding journey and will take the other woman along and that 1t shall be merely "an ostensible honeymoon" For she knows that the man who would not have been the wrong man is coming, ignorant of her marriage, to propose to her. He comes, followed a little later by his wife, who is &C., companied by a solicitous person who intends to marry her after she gets her divorce. whir1 of complications, wabbling affections, and plans that melt from one thing to another fol- lows for the next few hours and the reader has no idea, or, rather his idea changes with every chapter as to how the couples are really going to pair themselves off. There are many clever speeches and the breezy bubbly fun never stops for a minute. And it all makes amusing caricature of the modern attitude toward marriage and divorce

SINGLE COMB BL ACK ORPINGTONS

Chicks or hens do well in confinement or on free range. They are active and good foragers, and from reports received give good results in large floclss.
 The Black Orpington is noted for be- ing the most typical of all the Orping- tons That is, good shaped specimens of the breed are more numerous in Blacks than in any of the other colors. During the past show season the Black Orping- ton classes at the big poultry exhibi- tions showed even more uniformly high excellence than they have previously.
 The weights required on this breed are approximately S1s to 10 pounds for males and to pounds for females. and they frequently exceed these weights. This is a good, sizable fowl to meet market TO- quirements where the breeder raises enough fowls to have surplus for sale, and is desirable size for the home table.

The English fanciers are very proud of the Orpington and it has attained a large measure of popularity in the Unit ed States and Canada. Many good birds have been imported and the American breeders are becoming we'll versed in the breed and learning rapidly how to grow and handle it to the best advantage.
 For utility the Orpington breeders claim as many qualities as those now conceded to the American varieties and which have made the latter so popular among commercial poultry breeders. It is a fine mea ted, medium sized fowl ap- proximating the popular weights de- manded by the markets, is producer of large, brown eggs and has a reputation for being a good winter layer. The chicks are rugged and hardy, rapid growers, reach broiler size in good time and make splendid roasting fowls when full grown.

WORLD PEACEe


 By John Bigelow (Major IT. s. Army,
 Retired). Mitchell Kennerely, pub
 fisher, New York.
 To world filled with the noise and turmoil and desolation of war, a book on world peace must have a profound appeal. In this book peace for all the world is discussed and illuminated by an American, for Americans The book sets forth clearly why war cannot be abolished in our present civilizations ; but it advances a means by which war may be abolished. and how the last hope of world peace may be realized in the formation of world state It is very sane and very wise dis cussion of subject on which much unwise and insane staff has been writ ten. The author, John Bigelow, has given many years of study to the sub ject. It is comprehensive and convinc- ing; written in a style admirably clear and interesting, and the appendices giving the texts of official documents, with the full bibliography and index, add very greatly to the books value. In these days of evil portent it is dis tinctly book for Americans to read.

WORKING TO CAPACITY

According to the director of the army clothing department, the resources of the British shoe trade are being employed almost to the utmost capacity, but the products of the factories are at the same time giving general satisfaction
 Shoe manufacturers engaged on the con- tracts explained to the Associated Press that the official control exercised over the delivered shoes insured full value being given for the money spent by the various governments. Nothing but the best leath- CT may be used and the workmanship must be unimpeachable, while vouchers detailing the actual cost of the materials must be kept at each factory, in order that the manufacturer may be kept with in the bounds of a fair profit on his contracts.
 The shoes supplied for the British troops vary in the size from No 5 to No. 12, while many different shapes are provided, according to the service for which they are required. The orOnary infantry laced Butcher is naturally the most in demand, but tens of thousands of We'll ington high boots for cavalry and artil- lery also have been called for. The avia- tors, too, have a special kind of high boots, and the sailors of the fleet hign boots of differing shape, while ''brogues," or low marching shoes are worn by the kflted regiments and sandals by some of the Indian troops

3s PIECES IN SHOE

As a general rule there are SS pieces of leather used in the putting together of a regulation infantry laced shoe and to complete its manufacture 6S processes are necessary
 Manufacturers here confess that to the United States belongs the credit un- willingly it is true, of making it possible for the British trade to meet the great calls on it's resources Just % years ago there was an American invasion into the shoe trade of Britain and the competition was at once so successful that British manufacturers were compelled in their own defense to adopt the new American ideas or go out of business altogether. The British shoemakers quickly aban- doned their conservative methods, intro duced American machinery and system and soon virtually drove the American invaders out of the market.
 At the present moment the trade is so busily engaged on military work that the private customer has to suffer and the price of shoes for civilians has been ad- vanced at least 30 per cent since hostiites began.

We Cannot Improve on the Hens Ability, But We Can Do the Work More Economically-No Special Skill Is Required, Rather an Observance of Com mon Sense Laws
By ROBERT ARMSTRONG Exnerfenced POultryman

The season has been backward in many sections of the country, and due to this prolonged cold the hens have been reluctant to sit and hatch. Many farmers complain that they have not a single broody hen. This condition means late broods; too late, perhaps, to have the bullets mature early enough for fall layers. You, perhaps, are in the same plight; yet there is a remedy. Purchase an incubator at once: that is the solution you can then defy weather, time and the per versity of the hen.

FELLOWS CELEBRATE

st. Andrews, May 6.-Members of
the various l. D. o. F. lodges on the
bay gathered in st. Andrews last Sat
urday, with their families and friends
to celebrate the 9th anniversary of
Odd Fellowship in America. Exer-
cises were held in the morning on
the lawn of the Oaks hotel, the
speakers of the day being Col. 7.
Calvin Stephens, of Panama City,
and II. D. Flukes and DIR. Robbins of
Lynn Haven. Following this, dinner
was served on the porch at the Ca
sino. The dinner consisting of fried
fish. shrimp, bread and butter, corn
bread, crackers, coffee and various
relishes, was prepared and served I'M
der the direction of Captain Bert

aides to whom all credit is due for
one of the most enjoyable occasions

bringing the people together not only
in Odd Fellowship, but holding the
bonds closer in ties of goodfellow-
ship.
In the afternoon the first game of
the season between st. Andrews and

lures of the game being the friendly
