THE rTNDYING FIRE"
II. G. Wells. The Macmillan com

By H. c. Wells, The Macmillan com pany Publishers, New York City.
 Mir H. G. Wells-always a writer of infinite variety in his latest book en- titled The Undying Fire" appear upon the literary horizon in his most sombre and dignified mood.
 Evidently following up the line of "educationT which dominated his story Jean and Peter. he again takes edu- cation as the basis of his story, dedi- eating The Undying Fire" to "To All and Every Teacher in the World" and from the theme of education theorizes in a great spiritual conflict which is deep and philosophical and very learn ed
 He has made his story vivid and com polling, through characters drawn with his usual penetration of insight and through incidents of a highly dramatic nature.
 Job Huss is as commanding a figure as has appeared in any of the authors books Unreasoned faith and agnosti- cism alike fail to move him; and in the end like Job of old. he is rewarded.
 Man must fight and move forward because there is some God-given thing in his heart that impels him-this is MT. Wells message of his story.

ENGLAND HAS BIG
 JOB IN TRANSPORT

London, July 12-(Correspondence of the Associated Press.)-The vast scope of the work to be undertaken as soon as the much discussed transport bill is passed by parliament was outlined the other day in the House of Commons by Sir Eric Geddes, minister of ways and communi- cations, who will head the new exten- sive reforms and improvements planned for the railways, roads and docks. The railway programme includes the follow ing:
 Elimination of all competitive services given merely for the sake of competi- ton.
 Common use by all lines of rolling stock.
 Elimination of privately owned railway cars
 Increase of traffic by judicious electri- fication of certain lines. Increase of the size of rolling stock, necessitating the alteration of station platform clearances, enlargement of the entrance to warehouses and the like.
 Standardization of rolling stock and To- comotives.

THE IRON HUNTER"

By Charles S. Osborn; the Macmillan
 company, publishers, New York city.
 A peculiarly American book is this vol ume in which the former governor of Michigan writes of his own career, a ca reer which took him from the menial tasks of restaurant helper to the chair of the chief executive of his state. "The Iron Hunter" MT. Osborn calls his book because of his interest in iron ore. an interest which has fired him to the do- ing of many unusual things, which has led him on in his search for ore from one rugged section of the country to another, and which has placed him finally among the great experts in this line.
 There is something about MT. Os. borns narrative that suggests that the iron has entered into his blood; a strange and almost symbolic relationship exists between his fearless character and the work which he has made is own. There are incidents here that test the cour- age, that try mems metal; there is ad . venture that is both picturesque and thrilling, and all through it in the back ground one feels the presence of a strong man. It reads like fiction-the very best of fiction, the most entertain ing-but is reality.

FINDS ALCOHOL IN
 HOME ROOT BEER
Rv Associated Pres,

Philadelphia, July 2S.-Root beer made at home may not always be as innocent as it's name. Prof, Charles H. La Wall, dean of the Philadelphia College of Phar- macy, cautions the public to look out for the kick. The home brew, he finds, has an alcoholic content of LIT per cent.
 'It will take gallons to produce the familiar dizziness,'' he said, but it may provide some exhilaration.'

The result was surprising. I found that the alcohollc content was much greater than l had supposed.

 Says MT. Ford,
 Tn "The Undying Fire" which is his latest book-or was when this review begun; there may have been others since-he scars far into other worlds than ours and thinks he thinks more profoundly and dourly than ever. His relations with the Deity, once merely pleasant acquaintance, have advanced by easy stages through many books and the two are now on those terms of | back skipping intimacy which the Kali ser once enjoyed He has also added to his visiting list no less a parsonage than Satan. who, sitting with one arm thrown over the back of his throne,' en- tertains God with flow of cheery per- siflage that will appall the orthodox who have hitherto regarded him as the Power of Darkness and incapable of iocosity. And if MT. Wells may seem to slap the Deity on the back to mark the exuberance of his own mood he now ap pears to poke Him in the ribs to give further emphasis to the point of his own jest, but, as he wisely says, celestial hadinage is at once too high and broad to come readily within the compass of earthly print and understanding" !"

 The prologue ended. the hardy reader finds himself back on earth and well into a story believed by many to be paraphrase of the Book of Job. Ger tainly it will try the patience of any teristic artistry and cunning. the au- thor suggests the Biblical story by nam ing his hero Job Huss and revealing him to us at the moment when a series of dreadful disasters has removed him from his proud position as the head of the best and most progressive of Eng fish schools and left him flat on his back in a dreary seaside lodging house, subject to the ministrations of a detes- table English landlady.
 It will prove a shock to Mir. Wells most ardent admirers to realize, as they must, that thus far his narrative is inferior to that found in Holy Writ; and they will perhaps wonder if he has forgotten the boils which are so thor oughly identified with Jobs fame.
