From "Internationale" to
Real Internationalism
l.loiitetinnt Henry Dp Sinn, of the
Belgian army, in "The Itcmnklng of a
Mind," describes the transitions, men
tal, psychic and spiiltunl, of n'labor
leade'r, a member of Hie "Interna
tionale," who finally, In 11)18, reaches
under the drive of the Rivnt war against
autocracy, an objective which he never
dreamed of earlj in 1014.
One of the group Inclusive of Huys
mans, .Taures, T.lebkneclit and Hnsse,
who tried to throw the labor bloc In
all countries ngninst the war, he wound
up by a conversion to the necessity of
fighting the devil of autocracy with the
fire of democracy. He had a ery hon
orable record In the Belgian nrmv,
winning the lrolx dc (iuerre of his
countrv, and being awarded the Brit
ish Military' Mcdnl. serving at the front
on the staff nnd in service with mis
sions to the United States. Lieutenant
Dc Man gUes a very fair and readable
account of his favorable impressions
in this country, nnd intimates that he
will settle here nnd become a citizen,
in order that his children may enjoy
the .benefits of our free institutions.
His interpretation of his Individual
mental and spiritual processes is ex
ceedingly interesting. His book also
Interprets some of the isittcs now agi
tating the world, in the light of his
own mental stress anil strain. His
analysis of internntlonaUm is espe

"Our Casualty," by O. A. Birming

Doctor Ilnnnay's novels arc well known
for their Irish wit, humor nnd lovable
ness. His short stories arc as good.
They show the human side of Tommy,

A Conan Doyle Reprint
Old friends of the Conan Dojie
classics nnd who isn't will welcome
the reprint of "The Doings of Baffles
Haw," which comes bearing the im
piiut of Mr. Dornn. This admirable
tale, first published in 1801. is (like
Hint fascinating love 'id) 11 "A Duet"
and the ngreeable volume of liternry es
fcajH, "Through the Magic Door") little
known to the generation of Doyle fans
that has ariseu since the biave days
when the doctor-fictioueer was a gal
lant and new figure on eveiy book
counter. It deals with the pathetic
tale of Bafiles Haw. who learned
how to make gold from dead, but
whose mngniticant billions tainted the
hearts of the one family on whom
1.0 xlnrotl his affection nnd tiust. In
tion. including n general strike and n
bnttle in the streets.
Mr Desmond is gently ironical at
some of the fifty-seven different vniic
ties of radical and soclalUt. He is
uiso unsparing in his satire of torjism
and tnries. The reader will get many
n laugh at the keenly etched portraits
of some of the pink-tea and other po
litical ficaks who infest movements.
In a sense this is an "11 clef" novel,
like some of Disraeli's, and readers
will be inteiested in identifying some

, Sample Overcoats for Men
From Hart, Schaffner & Marx
,
at Less Than the Average Wholesale Value
We have sold many thmisands of Hart, Schaffner & Marx Overcoats, and, being
among the few very largest of their exclusive distributors, we have our choice of the
occasional extraordinary "plums" that they have to offer in the
course of their stupendous operations. One of the most notable of
these rare "finds" was the result of our representative's trip to
Chicago two weeks ago. He was on the spot just in time to get
about two hundred and sixty-five SAMPLE OVERCOATS to sell
at an average of fully ONE-THIRD LESS than the regular prices
of these Coats. Three wonderful lots ready for Monday's selling.
