4 Aged Woman Feels Need of Constant Travel How she was impelled by wander lust to go traveling around the world in her seventy-ninth year,, trekking through snow and Ice in Alaska and drifting in a small boat along a river in China, was related by Mrs. Soifia Howarth, 83 years old, of Eos An geles, who is in the city after p return trip from the Panama canal. When she arrives in Los Angeles she will have completed a journey of more than 85,000 miles. Mrs. Howarth is wealthy. Her near relatives are dead, and until the de sire for travel took possession of her to the exclusion of everything else, in her seventy-ninth year, she had been a stay-at-home. "I had been around hardly at all until I was nearly 88," she said. "Be fore 1 realized it I was on board the steamship Mongolian bouiyl for Honolulu. Prom there I went to the Philippines, thence to Japan and then to Port Said and through the Holy Hand and Turkey and into Europe. I traveled alone, and never once did I have an unpleasant experience. It is wonderful to bo elderly. It seems as though all your burdens are lifted from you, and every one tries to m>ko things pleasant for you.—New York Telegraph.

MOTIVE FORCES AND INFLUENCES THAT HA VE BROUGHT NATIONS OF WORLD TO WAR ARE DISCUSSED With This Country on Verg< ticularly Appealing; 800 l All Show Influence of V* The Great War, by George H. Allen, ] Ph. D., History Department, Univer sity of Pennsylvania. (Published by George Barrie's Sons, 1313 Walnut street, Philadelphia.) With America on the verge of war, It is the duty of loyal citizens of the United States to intelligently inform themselves on the motive forces and influences that have been at work in bringing the nations of the world into conflict on the immense b&ttlelleld of Europe. There are so many factors entering into the analysis, moral, in dustrial, racial and political, that full many volumes are inadequate to a thorough discussion. The causes and motives, the mobil ization of tho moral and physical forces, the conduct of the hostilities and the final results—these in order are taken up l>y Professor Allen, an authority on the subject, who in col laboration with Captain Henry C. Whitehead and Admiral P. E. Chad wick has devoted his energies to the production of a work that will go down among the historical monuments of the present war as uniquely satis factory in every regard. Professor Allen has conjured up, by conscientious endeavor, unflagging energy and resourceful investigation and study, a summary court of the world, to which the nations involved in this struggle are c,alled to present their side of the case; the national mind of each is laid bare under a micros copic glass and the tremendous forces at work at the inception of the struggle are revealed and separated into their e of Conflict, Subject Is Par ks and Magazines Practically Vorld-wide Turmoil component parts until the reader has gained a clear conception of the vast extent of the vital elements involved. "The Great War" is a classic that will endure with the memory of man. The Beetle, by Richard Marsh. (Published by G. P. Putnam's Sons, $1.50 net.) Mystery of liynotic influence, fan tastic horrors and many tense situa tions are brought before the reader as he goes on with the fascinating story of this author. It is a story, powerful in its grip on the imagination, and yet does not go to extremes. Centered around the life of an English nobleman who lius done some things ho might not have done had he the opportunity to meet the same situation again, the skill with which this is told is remarkable. It is a book which \jjill be much more enjoyable if siomeone is near. If read when alone, the mystery of "The Beetle" may cause ..persons with vivid imaginations to turn up the gas and look twice to see tbat no hideous be ing is in hiding adniewhere in the room. Yet with all its vague sugges tions of superhuman mental sugges tion and the shadows of strange hor rors, the story is sure to please, and leaves at least part of the mystery un solved. When the public is given a truly American story of the knocks, bumps and romance in the life of a humor ous irishman, there can be no doubt but that it will be received with com mendation. in "Jerry" by Arthur Stanwood Pier, and published by Houghton Mifflin Company, $1.50 n£t, the public is given just such a story. From an iron mill worker to district attorney in a great city—this is the career of Jerry. Confronted with numerous obstacles he only uses them to mount higher. Two murders and a suicide are brought Into the book, but in such a masterly way that the novel loses none of its romance. Human nature of all kinds the ward politician, life in police circles, the courageous and unselfish action of Jerry as an honest policeman—these all tend to make the tale one of the finest in recent fiction. He was a schoolmaster in a little British town. Ho wrote stories too and one morning awoke to find him self an accepted author. This school master-autlior was John May Beith at the beginning of the great European War, but when Great Britain issued her call to arms, the author straight way changed 'his pen for a sword." I He is now Captain John Hay Beith and | writes under the nom de plume of lan j Hay. "The First Hundred Thousand" I by this author attained immense popu i larity and now he has written a little { book on "Getting Together," published : under the double imprint of Double | day, Page and Company, and Hough ! ton, Mifflin Company. I "You don't really think we are too | proud to light, do you?" "Why can't | you Britishers be a bit kinder in your | attitude to us?" "What do you expect to do about the submarine menace?" These are a few of the questions that the "average American" propounds to the "average Briton" in a conversation that they have on the attitude of the two countries toward one another. Designed evidently to promote a great er understanding between the two leading Anglo-Saxon nations of the world and likewise to set forth in laconic phraseology the things for which England fights, "Getting To gether" is written. Lan Hay was wounded in battle and spent some weeks in this country, during which time he gained the impressions which | are set down in his book. The White Queen of Okoyong, by W. P. Livingstone, a beautiful young folk's version of the same author's great missionary biography, "The Life of Mary Slessor of Calabar," (which has taken the English speaking world by storm as the greatest missionary biography since the Life of Llving etone.) The Boys' Book of Canoeing anil Sailing, by Warren H. Miller, author of "The Boys' Book of Hunting and Fishing," "Camp Craft," etc., is an other practical, attractive book in which the editor of "Field and Stream" has embodied Information equally valuable to youthful or adult sportsman. It is illustrated elaborate ly with diagrams and drawings. Scars and Stripes, by Porter Emer son Browne. A series of brilliant pa pers on the international situation. "I do not know any man," says Theodore Roosevelt, "who has made a more ef fective appeal to American loyalty." Women Are People. A book of clever suffrage verses by- Mrs. Alice Duer Miller, who has been called "the poet laureate of the Cause," and who has come prominently £o the front this winter as the authbr of the popular New York dramatic success, "Conae Out of the Kitchen," starring Ruth Chatterton. The Man Who Tried to Be It, by Cameron Mackenzie. A story of mod ern business, with a big new idea for every man W business to-day. Had to Wash Own Socks; Sues Wife For Divorce Boston. Mass., March 23. Howard Bangs, son of John Kendrick Bangs, yesterday asked the Superior Court to grant him a divorce from his wife, Eleanor Carey Hangs. He told the Judge that his wife used to come home at 3 and 4 o'clock in the morning in toxicated. She used to flog and kick htm, he said, and he was obliged to get out of his bed and go to the parlor to sleep. • He testified that she never had a meal ready; that he was obliged .to go out. buy his own food and then go home and cook it. Bangs said he had to wash his own shirts and socks. He said she told him she wanted other men who had more money than he; that she was sorry she married him, and that she could have married others. He said that he used to do some writing at home and she would destroy the manuscripts be fore he submitted them to the publish ers. Judge Bell took the case under advisement. , Northumberland May Float S4OO 000 Road Bond Issue Sunbury, Pa.. March 23.
