The Female Of the Species

WOMEN ~ WAR Rv Francis Gribb'e. Sro. pp
viii 3i2 T. +. Duiiou & Go.
The theme of this volume is timely.
since womankind are exceptionally in
terested in the present war. We can
recall no other conflict in modern times
in which women have so systematically
and By authority been made the victims
Of a lustful soldiery as they have in
these last three years been at the will
Of the Blond Beast Of Berlin. Nor has
there been any in which women have
so numerously participated as actual
soldiers in the ranks. II is thus Of
peculiar interest to refresh our mem
Org Of the parts which women have
PLAYED in relation to other wars, as
individuals or in mass, as vlctors or
as victims.
We have at times feared that Nh.
Gribble was writing too many books
TO write them we'll; and IT must be con-
fessed that the present volume shows
marks Of haste and incompleteness. 1t
fails TO mention some women who fig
ured conspicuOusly in wars. Yet II IS
always interesting, and generally IN
forming. whether it be telling Of the
Maid Of Orleans. OF the martyrs OF
Cawnpore. or Of Florence Nightingale's
mission of mercy.

Advocates and partisans of real
American fiction" should be pleased with
this work. since il is purely American
in scene. in characters and in motive.
The action takes place chiefly on the
shore and the water OF Lake Michigan
and the mystery which gives the BOOK
its title is legend OF the Chlppewas.
II is. of course. eminently desirable
that the vast wealth of American iore
and legend. as well as American char
acteristics, should be utilized as ma
terial for romances. This has beeh
done By succession OF eminent VIII
ers. beginning with the two great
founders OF American romantic litera-
ture but II is not likely to he over
done. wherefore we are inclined 10
welcome and 20 encourage every new
worthy effort in that direction.
And the present effort - worthy we
cannot say that il is void OF faults.
In some places the action and the con-
duct Of some OF the principals seem
unnatural and improbable. though not
to the extreme of impossibility. put
the plot is ingenious and interesting
and has "A convincing suggestion OF
having been drawn from real life. the
characters are sufficiently we'll dehned
and their appeal to human interest
and sympathy is strong. There Is no
suspicion Of a sex problem or problem
Of any kind, there is no preaching ana
there is no thought of exploiting
"views." It is just a story, romaht.c'

mental mysterious; told Just ior we

After eat ing comes sleeping, and Castoria looks out for that too. It allays feverishness and prevents loss of sleep, and this absolutely with out the use of opium, morphine or other banefui narcotic.

selF-sAcRlFlcE AND WAR

After all, suffering is neces- sary to wise and moral living. Very few people can stand the test of uninterrupted success. This is true of the individual; it is true of nations. For one. l believe that in this respect at least the war will have tremen- dous effect in the future for a long period of time. Of course, the answer will be that the price is too great. No doubt 1t is. The same triumph should be achieved without the price. But the fact is that 1t never Is.
 Somewhere 1 have read that in 1913 a young German poet, The odore koerner. full of promise in the great literary field. offered his services as a soldier. The attempt was made to disuade him, because the country could not afford to lose so promising a man. His answer was that of d

which will add manure to the soil. A large manure supply in the soil increases its moisture holding capacity. makes the soil work easier, and makes the plant food already in the soil available so it can be used by the growing crop. A soil short in manure is a dead soil nearly all our soils should have a larger supply of it. Cowpeas if turned under. will also add considerable nitrogen to the soil. It is the element that gives the rank green growth to the growing crop. If cowpea seed cannot be secured put in some early rye, wheat or oats. All of them will furnish splen- did fall and winter pasture and cut down the feed bill. With the present price of corn and other feed crops it is very im- portant to grow some green crops and cut out some of the concentrated feeds. These crops will also keep the soil from wash ingso that next years crop will be more profitable. The top soil is always the best. Some green growing crop during the fall and winter will hold this surface soil.

HERE'S A WAY TO SAVE DOCTOR
 BILLS
Physicians Give Free Advice by
 Which Parents May Profit.

It's a matter of general interest just now how ones physical can be got into shape to best receive the benefits of the summer sea. son. Especially is this true of the children. They have become run down by a winter of unnat- ural manner of living because of ill-considered food and much time spent indoors. Spring comes with it's sunshine, it's fresh veg etables and all else invigorating. but the children are in no condi- tion to receive natures remedies.
 Many parents call in the fami- ly physician. Many other par ents take advantage of what the physician told them when he was first called in consultation. All good family physicians say: Give the children Castoria. D Healthy parents know this rem. edy of old, for they took it them selves as children. It was more than thirty years ago that Cas- toria made a place for itself in the household. It bore the sig uature of Chas. A. Fletcher then, as it does today. The signature is its guarantee, which is accept. ed in thousands of homes where there are children.
 Much is printed nowadays about big families. pr. William j. McCrann. of Omaha, Neb., is the father of one of these much ead-about families. Here is what he says:
 As the father of thirteen children 1 certainly know some thing about your great medicine. and aside from my own family experience 1 have. in my years al practice. found Castoria a pop. liar and efficient remedy in al, most every home. "
 Charles H. Fletcher has re-
 lived hundreds of letters from
 rominent physicians who have the same esteem for Castoria taat Dr. McCrann has. Not only do these physicians say they use

 He went forward and fell in bat tie. No one would say that if he had not gone to the front his poems and songs would be treas ured by his people as they have been eyer since. No contribu- tion that he could have made to literature could possibly have had the influence with his people that the triumph of his spirit has exercised throughout the century.
 This is true now in all the war ring countries. Whatever the cause may be, the spirit of sacri- flee has come into recognition as never before in history. There will be a triumph of soul. and an appreciation of what is true. fine and worth while; and a willing ness and ability to dismiss that which IS sham, show and self indulgence.

of prayer before the annual conven-
ton of Baptist Missionary societies
the ladies of the First Baptist church
spent Tuesday in the Church discus
sing topics of interest in their Chris
tan end. vors and in prayer for
guidance and inspiration in all good

Whispering Hope" as a duet but
Mrs. S. H. Hall was at the piano for
all, the hymns. There are six circles
of twelve member each and different

has been visiting with her sister, Miss
Sena Towers. Mrs. E. L. Stringer's
circle discussed the Hapeville Or
phanage and kindred topics. Mrs.
J. z. Fosters circle spoke on Noun

WORKERS CONFERENCE.

The workers conference of the
Presbyterian Sunday School had its
second meeting in the lecture room of
the church Friday evening at seven
thirty, and was led by the Superin-
tendent, Mr.. George F. Montgomery.
The subject under discussion was
What would do if l were Sunday
School teacher" The leader gave
some very profitable ideas of what
the teachers should do, such as max
ing the children bring their Bibles to
Sunday School, learn their lessons,
give entertainments for them in or
der to bring them closer together and
several other ideas. DR.. Patton spoke
of the teachers being thoroughly pre-
pared before coming to their classes
and Mrs. Campbell Wallace added
that they should talk it over with
God before trying to teach. Mr..
Robertson who is engaged by the
church to organize these workers
conferences, came down from Car
tersville to be present, and gave some
splendid ideas. The. conference de-
cided to help little sick boy of the
church who had no money to help
himself. Then the question was TAX
en- up, that of adding to the Sunday
School room. This is to be taken UP
before the sessions of the church at
their next meeting.
