FRONTIER LIFEIS TOLD WITH CARE IN BOOK BY CAPTAIN COOK Fifty Years on the Old Frontier” Is Filled With Interest ing Anecdotes of Old-Time Plainsman Who Lets Others Play Hero Roles and Explodes Some Illusions. By WILL M. MAUPIN. “Fifty Years on tiie Old Frontier.” is the title of Capt. Jamoa H. Cook's book, published hy the Uni versity Press and now on sale. Cap tain Jim, as he is best known to those having the happy privilege of his friendship, has not only made a val uable and timely contribution to the history of the rapidly vanishing fron tier, but he has set a literary style that others would do well to follow when they undertake a similar task. He has not undertaken to do any “fine writin,'” but like the old-time scout, trapper, guide and plansman that he is, he has written Just as he has often talked before the fire place in his trophy-laden den at the famous ranch house home at Agate. A vein of dry humor that has made Captain Jim famous is displayed to good advantage in this bopk, and one may read between the lines of the descriptions he makes of some of his adventures on the frontier more than he sets down in words. At no time does Captain Jim fall into the error of boasting of his own exploits. On the contrary he .minimizes them in a humorous way, leaving to oth ers the task of telling about his splendid services as an army scout. Other autobiographers have writ ten about their exploits and told of the bloody trail of dead and dying Indians lying in their wake, but not so with Captain Jim. He didn't kill an Indian so far as his book discloses although he had frequent brushes with them. He tells of cowboy life in Texas and makes it a vivid pic ture of days that have vanished. He tells of famous men, home folks and foreigners, he has guided on big game hunts, but it is in the telling of the wrongs inflicted upon the In dians that he is at his best. Captain Jim knew the In dians of the old days as few men knew them, and because the Indians trusted him they confided in him. His tribute to the ability and cour age of Red Cloud is a wonderful bit Quaint Story of Old Southern Family Life "I RIDE IN MY COACH.'* by Hu*he» Mearns, the Penn Publishing company. The author presents several Inter esting characters In his whimsical story of a southern family residing in the north. The period of tlm* ex tends from the civil war to the pres ent decade. There are no thrilling scenes, but Instead there Is a refresh ing presentation of persons who move and have their being In a natural way. There are flashes of quaint humor and now and then a bit of philosophy. Susan Carrosse, other wise Mrs. Ellas Johnson, has an un questioned sense of class distinction, and carries her southern manners and methods to the north. On her note paper appears the legend ”Je vals en carrosse,” hence the title, "I Ride In My Coach.” Her husband. Grandfather Johnson, holds to the plebeian Idea that gets a deal of pleasure out of “jes workin’ along.” Considerable human Interest Is crowded Into the pages, particularly In connection with the life of Clara Carrosse, who lost her first husband, married again, and then hungered for her own children as she worked over another man’s children who thought no more of her than of a hired girl. Clara said she did what she seemed right, "but always lost somehow.” Clara had two children by her first marriage—Rodney and Julie, whom she surrender to the care of their grandparents. Rodney was "Just folks” like his maternal grand father, but his sister, Julie, was In clined to develop the patrician pose. The girl was a prototype of her Grandmother Carcase, who was proud that Julie was able at the proper moment to say nothing, when speech was crying for expression—a sign of thp superior mind. Squire Hawthorne and his Universal Improvement company adds zest to the story. The squire holds that “A critic Is a far-seeing chap who Is so annoyed hy his own fallings that he tries to keep everybody from having them.” And there is a romance be tween Julie and Yon Harmsel, pomolo gist. Introducing also Willie Hopple, IS, apothecary clerk, who wears the highest collar In town and is always foolish with the girls. Strange Tales of Parisian Detective "MONBIF.UR JONQU*UX" by MsUvtlle Csvlman Post. A. Apolston A Co. A prefect of Parle police alwaya le a romantic figure In fiction. Writer* of all time have devoted much at tention to the chief sleuth of the Par isian detective agency until the French twang to detective *torlee seems to be an endorsement to mys tery lover*. And so the mere name of Monsieur Jonquelle gives promise to delectable stories of Intrigue. Monsieur Jonquelle Is that gentle type of Frenchman who never resorts to violence, yet who always gives promise of suppressed action at hand should the need arise. Mi*. Post’s tales of the Jonquelle unraveling! are keen; they are en tertalnlng; but to the gourmand of detective fiction, they are diaphanous. When the monsieur flick* the ash from his clgaret—that’* the give away signal; and th* two art stories smell of counterfeiters almost from the ■tart. But In truth. Isn’t that th# real test of a first class detective etory? Doesn’t the average reader like to match his wits against th* characters In the story and try to figure out ahead the outcome? A detective story that is too difficult to fathom falls far from Its murk. Mr. Post, famed for his mystery stories, has added to his list with these detective tales. They are ex celleiit reading before the biasing logs In the fireplace. May Monsieur Jonquelle find many more battling mysteries to untangle. go secluded are the women kept In Korea that they are almost prohibited from speaking to their own husband*. of literature, and having been an ac tive participant In the campaign pre ceding the battle of Wounded Knee his opinions thereof are of Intense interest and historical value, al though they destroy some of the glamor that some literary artists and prejudiced historians have thrown around that famous incident In our history. Captain Jim takes especial care to destroy some of the long adhered to illusions that the cowboys of the early days were a drunken, dissolute lot. His description of their hardships, their utter disregard of personal com fort when the property of their em ployers was at stake, and their open handed generosity is a worthy tribute to a misunderstood class to whom the west of today owes more than it can ever repay. How he came to possess the famous Agate ranch In Sioux county and how the discovery of Its now world fam ous fossil deposits came about, Is In tensely interesting, and Captain Jim seizes the opportunity therein to re late In simple and convincing lan guage the faith upon which his de clining years are /ounded and from which he looks out with unfaltering courage to whatever may betide when the curtains of his eventful life are at last drawn together. Pioneer cowboy, scout and plains man; one of the builders of an em pire, Captain Jim now sits in the evening of life, happiest when he is host to old and new friends who make pilgrimages to his fireside, and look ing out upon life as befits a man who has played well his part therein. “Fifty Years on the Old Frontier’’ may not have the literary style of the hest seller novel, but for sheer in terest, for historical value and for ap peal to true Americanism, it is the year’s best contribution to America's libraries. The introduction is by Gen. Charles A. King, and that famous soldier and author pays a deserved tribute to Captain Jim. A PV E RT! 8 KM FN T. "DANOERINE” ■ ■1 — Girls!

"The Hero of the Fliplnos," by Charles Edward Russell and E. B. Rodriguez. The Century company. $3. By R. H. PETERS. Of an unusually timely nature ia this biography of Dr. Jose Rizal, and persons who follow the quarrels of Leonard Wood and Filipino politi cians should welcome this recital of the life of a great Malay whose mar tyrdom did much to overthrow Span ish domination of his native land. The volume is the first, generally available to Americans, containing a complete account of Rlzal's life, and this fact does much to condone pre vailing ignorance In this country of one of the outstanding minds in his tory. If the biographers occasionally stray Into the sensational—they por try Spanish men and women laugh ing and cheering as Rlzal falls be fore a firing squad—they have for the most part handled their data capably and have even succeeded In many instances in lending a color to their narrative that gives it the Interest of a well-written novel. Ethnologist, anthropologist, optha mologist, biologist, zoologist, linguist, sculptor, painter. Illustrator, poet, novelist, publicist, engineer, educa tor and reformer—an astounding number of accomplishments to place after the name of any one man, but Russell and Rodriguez not only claim them for Rizal, but furnish documentary proof that he had good title *to every one of them. Speci mens of his illustrations and photo graphs of his work as a sculptor are given In the biography, as well as the plots of his two novels, and n number of his poems, and they all attest ability of the man. In these fields. Of his ability as a linguist there Is no question, since he was not only faqilliar with but could actually con verse in 19 languages. As a scientist he had sufficient claim to greatness to be on Intimate terms with the most distinguished scholars of Europe, and one of his engineering feats still stands ns mute testimony to his abil ity. It is almost Incredible, this many sided mind, and it is decidedly fasci nating to follow its development through the pages of the two biog raphers. The authors apparently make no effort to disguise their partiality for their hero and his country, and if this partiality may not be In con formity with a coldly scientific pre sentation they may well plead that the task of presenting to the Ameri can public such a character Justifies their Intense enthusiasm for him and all his works. It .is amusing to note that Rlzal, despite hie remarkable ability In many fields was slightly faulty In his knowledge of United States geog raphy. Specimen pages from his bi ography contain the following descrip tion of a trip across the United States: •'Thursday, May 10. We woke up In Nebraska. The country Is a plain. We reached Omaha, a big city, at 4 p. m., the biggest since we left San Francisco. The Missouri river Is twice as wide as the Pasig river in Its wide part. It Is marshy. Islands are formed In the middle of the river; its banks are not beautiful. This region has many horses and cattle. The train passed over the Missouri bridge for 2V4 minutes; the train goes slowly. We are now in Illinois.” Thirty per cent of the total number of government workers In Great Bri tain are women. "Gretchen of Holland.” designed and ^ written by Bess* Toulouse Sprague and Illustrated by Bess Dewing Jew ell Is a book to delight the hearts of very little children.

Such sales have been held in all the principal cities of the United States during tbe last few years, generally in the Rexall Drug Stores, and have been the sensation of the hour. It is particularly timely just now. We could not do this except by the help of the manufacturer, which in the case of most of the items offered is the United Drug Co.. Boston. THE PLAN OF THE ONE-CENT SALE is as follows: You BUY ONE article at the regular price, and then obtain another of the same kind for ONE CENT. By its means the manufacturer, anxious for a wider distribution of his products, makes a special concession in price, thus encouraging the retailer to co-operate by holding these sales. Thereby a large volume of merchandise is quickly distributed to the public—of course, without a cent of profit, but with the effect of quickly introducing some meritorious article, perhaps hitherto unknown, or increasing largely the distribution of well-known and standard articles. In a few cases we wish to “close-out" an item oa which we have overstock—and we offer such goods at a positive money loss to ourselves. This is a little less than 50% reduction on nearly every item mentioned. There will be sweeping reductions made on all sorts of standard merchandise which is not mentioned below.
