The Rediscovered Country
Two white men pierce a trackless virgin
area of dense forest In German Hast
Africa, where the sound of a gun has
never been heard and where no hunter
over before set font. One of these ex
plorers, Btuwnrt Edward White himself,
chronlcleB the oenU of this daring trip
Into practically unknown land In hi diary
which has been printed In bonk form as,
"The Rediscovered Country" (Doublcday.
Page Sc Co., Garden City, I,. 1.1
Mr. White, who Is a naturalist of great
, ability, describes this tmbcalt n country
In detail; the nrioui tribes of people,
their mannern and customs and the ani
mals, their haunts, habits nnd colntntlon.
Numerous camera plcttues Illustrate
these and oro splendidly reproduced.
Tho hunters experienced some thrilling
encounters with wild bensts, and more,
than once tho reader's heart Is made to
beat faster, eueh aa when Mr Whites
ready gun saved him from death when
ho was attacked by an Infuriated lion.
It Is a'book fraught with Interest for the
General reader, and containing In Its ap
pendices special, valuable Information for
tho hunter and .seeker after special
knowledge.
Health
When a treatise on health exercises Is
l translated into :i different langunges and
has sales that approach a million copies,
it in not necessary for tho amateur physi
cal culturlst to know that It has been In
dorsed by phyalclana In nearly every
country on the globe, In order to feel
suro of the intrinsic valuo of Its contents.
This would bo a casual criticism by a
casual reader of Lieutenant J. P. Mullcr'B
"My System," or, as Its sub-tltlo ex
plains, "Fifteen Minutes' Work a Day for
Health' Poke ' (David McKay, Philadel
phia). The remarkable success of the book is
due to the fact that the exercises are de
vised not for Mm purpose of developing
the muscles alone, but are intended to af
fect the vital organs. This la ruther new.
The system alms to promote: 1. The
functions of tho skin; 2, tho action of the
lungs; 3, the digestion. It Is simply tho
rclentlflo application of common seno to
the requirements of ordinary people It
comprises' series of slmplo bodily move
ments 'with massage or friction of the
akin with the hands.
Tho author Is not an extremist. He
does not believe that diets, or cold baths,
or heavy clothing nre necessary or
healthful. The exorcises call for none of
thest) things. The essentials are motion,
bath and massage, all of which, accord
ing to the time schedule accompanjlng
tho text, can be done In fifteen minutes.
It is a tabloid system devised for eery
hody and especially useful for those who
nre limited in time. "My System for
Ladles" and "M Sssteni for Childieii,"
as well as "M Breathing stfm nre

By GRACE LIVINGSTON HILL LUTZ
Everyone fell in love with Miranda when she first
appeared in "Marcia Schuyler". Her naturalness and
irrepressible spirit made all of us wish that she might
sometime have her own romance. Here it is. Miranda
falls in love. Who could imagine it? Yet she does, and
with a man whoso life is linked with that great move
ment, the occupation of Oregon when threatened by
English rule. It is a stirring tale with lively incidents
on every page and Miranda with her delicious common
sense wit is a joy forever. This is the kind of story
that brings spring-time to the heart and inspires old
and young to a more wholesome outlook on life.

The "Potash and Pcrlmutter" formu
lary of tho Joys, tribulations: ami
wrangles of a paitneishlp Is employed
bv Montague Glass In sovcrnl of tho
stories which go to make up "The Com
petitive Nephew" (Doublcday, Page t
Co., Garden City, L. I.). For this reason
and Its lorollary that stoiles of a type
aro bound to pa'l If consecutively read,
readers will Justly tako umbrage at the
palpublo uttompt to make Mils olume
appear to constltuto a full-length novel
Tho titles of the various stories, both In
tho contents tnble and nt their beginning,
uro cnllcd "chapters," though they aro
absolutely unrelated. The words "and
other stories" do not appear on tltlo
page or clsowhere. Many of Mr. Ol.u'V
admirers would like to see his undenlabln
talents exercised In a genutno novol;
but this Is not that noel, for It Is
not n novel, but n collection of short
stories.
Mighty clover short stories, most of
'em. Though the names are not Mawruss
nnd Abo. the people beneath them are
blood iclatlons always, replitns some
times nninlnllius mutntls. The now fa
miliar personal traits and economic prin
ciples of tho cloaks nnd suits trade form
the basis and furnish the atmosphere for
most of thorn, but In one. "Hudolph.
Where Have You Beon?" Mr. Glass
prospects along a new lead, where tho
ore scorns to assay piofltably It would
bo agrccablo to have some more of these
studies of his rnco under theatrical con
ditions. In this ono story he seems to
havo as firm a grip on tho palaver and
ways of 42d street and Broadway as
he assuredly has on those of Grand,
Cnnal and Hlvlimton sttcets. not to
mention Upper 3d avenue In tho "Hronlx."
Almost invariably Mr. Glass writes
tolerantly and understanding- of the
foibles, vanltlea, business prnctlrei and
shrewdness of his peoplo and with duo
appreciation of the genuinely sterling
qunlltles of tho Jewish race. Tho "In
variably" was absolute In "Potash and
Perlmutter." In "The CnmpntitlMt
Nephew" series of tales certain unlovely
traits are needlessly, though only cas
ually, uncovered, and onn story, "Caveat
I'mptor," Is a study In sharp practices
that, though diabolical In Its Ingenuity,
Is distinctly dlsogreeable In final Im
pression. Keeping the Door

and men of the- line. Tho author, who Is
a major In tho Medical Corps of the
United States Army, In an admirable ex
position of the causes, prevention and
tieatment of dlsenBO such ns prevails
among men under arms, strikes at tho
very core of tho army's most devastating
foe. When It Is recalled that In tho Spanish-American
War 2C04 of tho 2310 deaths
suffered by the American army wcro
caused by disease. It Is manifest that such
a thorough, clear and pithy book as
Major Ashbuni's may be a great factor
In bringing nbout somo correction. It
would bo dlltlcult, If not Impossible, to
name an Intlmato phase of tho soldier's
life which Is not dealt with In this work.
Another Anonymous Novel
Tho tide of anonymity la toward flood
again. After Basil King puzzled most
roaders with "The Inner Shrlno" came
a multitude of bonks of concealed au
thorship, concerning which the public be
trayed absolutely no rurloslty. Then, a
teMPon ago, "Home," by doorgo Agnew
Chamberlain, reached a considerable suc
cess through clover exploiting of tho nu
thor's anonymity. Ergo,, busy typewrit
ers of nameless authors began beating
nut romances and rival publishers, fol
lowing tho lend of nn achloved success,
begnn pintlng of the marvelous quality or
their respectlio nnonymlsts, each of
I'ourse, tho flneit In nnon.vmlty.
The latest of them Is Iho covert author
of "The Sea of God" (Heart's Interna
tional Library Company, New York)
"The publishers ale not permitted at
present to disclose the name of tho au
thor." Whv? Tho author has nothing
to be nshnmed of; the hook Is not so bad
ns that. The publishers certainly havo
nothing very wonderful in reserve; tho
book Is not good enough for that.
The story li a good craftemanllko piece
of llctlon. Characterization of the ten
derly rented Southern girl who Is adrift
upon the "sens of God," Is well done.
Tho plot ia lather routine, but nicely
adjusted The stvlo Is agreeable. But
theio H hardly an exceptional thins
about Mils anonymous romance.
Thrills for Heroine
In Humdrum Tale
Notwithstanding that the heroine Is
thrlco rescued ftom peril of death In the
first three chnptcis, "Spray on tho Win
dows" (Gcorgo II. Doran & Co., New
York), must he described ns a story of
humdrum English life. Tho author, J. K.
rsuckrose. while not duplicating the
gaiety that appeared In her previous
work, hn3 written entertainingly and has
provided somo excellent character draw
ing. One rather wishes that tho semi
haunted houpc hail been made use of In
a more conscientious manner and that
the old ladv who could not come to any
decision without astrological aid had been
a hit more prominent. Btlll Anne, tho
heroine, who finds mntrlmony has Its
"fors nnd ngnlnsts," herself Is sufficiently
remarkable to make the book unusual.
Any oune woman who would deliber
ately throw oer a man of wealth and
Mntlon for a poverty stricken creature
with a prison record Is hound to appear
lemnrkahle 111 this ngo and generation,
even in humdrum England.
