William Briggs, Toronto, publisher. 511 Pages! Price $1.25. R. Uglog & Co, Clay. " ; "The Rocks of Valpre" is a stir- {ring emotional story of a wilful (but light-hearied English girl, and ithe love that came to her from. her {strohg-minded English husband and the faithful, understanding French artillery officer. The scene is partly {laid on the Breton coast, where the {irresponsible young girl meets the |gay young officer. Tle shows her the among the rocks of Valpre, where he is secretly working out an ig cave | laritllery serviee of France and make {hh famous. The eave is reached jonly at low tide, and so, when they {Hnger too long therein, they are | toreed to spend the night there. This incident , casts a shadow over { their Whole lives, and almost results a tragedy. A touch of the Drey- 5 tragedy lends the story additio \ strength. The vounng officer's se [ret is stolen and sold to another country, and he is publicly disgraced and ruined { +The characier theen well drawn She is of the type {who never grow up, and who are bound by that very cirenmstance, not only to be but te make those dearest nhappy also. She is pretty ldish and thoughtless, totally un- |suited to her English husband, a man, thoughtful, just and unyeild- ing. The story abounds in strong and telling contrasts of character and temperament. The two men vho love the girl, and her three brothers, are well-drawn characters The author has made them individ ual and realistic to a marked degree Emotional crises abound; and the in- {terest never wavers, but is sustain- | ed to the very end. { Miss Dale, the young Enzlish author of this fascinating tale, will be rememhered as the author of "The Way of an Eagle," a book that won instant recognition. fin ul of the girl has | SUNSHINE JANE By Anne Warner. McClelland, Good- | child & Stewart, Toronto, publish- I ers. 279 pages. Price, $1.00. Uglow & Co., city. "Sunshine Jane' a delightful book bythe author of "The Rejuv- enation of Aunt Mary." The same happy strain runs through the new book----the same desire to befriend, to be helpful and te bring sunshine and cheer into sunless and cheerless lives, Jane was a "Sunshine Nurse," one of an order whose business it was "to do what the doctors can't al- ways do--make folk well." Mostly, it would seem, by preaching to them the "New Thought" gospel and by practising it herself. She comes to visit her two aunts in the dull coun- try village, and the transformation begins at once. The cantankerous dupt, who had "new asthma' in her arm, which the doctor could *"'alli- gator" but not cure, lost her ail- nents. "Sunshine Jane' speedily converted.all and sundry in the little village to her belief that "you can get anything you want if you only want it enough." Under this spell comes Lorenzo Rath, an artist, who wants Jane just this way. Here is material for a romance with Jane as the central figure, and it is very pret- tily worked out. The book is =a wholesome, happy one, 'and should be a source of good to every one who reads it. It preaches the gospel of a glad optimism---of always look- ag for the bright sidé, of expecting nd thinking only good, with the re- iit that good is sure to come. It is a cheerful story, containing much to laugh over and a moral to remember ~--and, maybe, practice. R. is i THE DEFENCE OF CANADA | By Christopher West. A pamphlet, J. M. Dent & Sons, 'London and Toronto, publishers. Price, 10c. This pamphlet, which is No. 1 of the 'international good will series, is a review of Canadian defence in the light of Canadian history. The auth- or goes back to 1865, when the Duke of Newcastle, as colonial secretary, voiced the imperial government's recommendation that Canada should contribute more men and money to build up a military power in this country, but that such contributions should be, made permanent. The danger then was greater than it is today. Yet what was Canada's answer? Four commissioners went to England to confer with the imper- ial government on defence. They were Sir John A. Macdonald, George {Etienne Cartier, Georfe Brown and Alexander T. Galt. They pointed out that volunteer organization alone jas suited to the country, and that 'there was a decided aversion to compulsory sefvice." They declined {to enter upon a lavish expenditure to build up a military system dis- {tasteful to Canadians and not called for by any circumstance they had cognizance of. "It was a time of provocation against Canada," 'said Mr. West, "but can we now doubt that Can- ada's amity towards her neighbors had its influence in the peace which reigns between the British and erican peoples to-day!" 3 Upon this foundation, asks the { author, which kind of a superstruc- {ture are the Canadian statesmen of the present generation raising? In 1868, following the excitement of the Fenian raids, the total military expenditure was §1.%%1.861. The estimates for 1914 placed the re- jinvention that will revolutionize the | i } depths, and reformation is well poi- trayed. The Hook abounds}in thrill- ing incidents, fights wiyf' sherifl's posses and with guerillas, ambus- c¢edes amd rescues--in fact, ail the excitement that could be 'well agined to hang in such a country.

Phillips Oppenheim. McClel- land & Goodchild, Toronto, pub- lishers. 365 pages... Price, $1.30. R. Uglow & Co., city. A few months ago Mr. Oppenheim produced a humorous fantasy en- titled "The Double Life of Alfred Burton." Now, in "A People's Man" he has delved into soéivlogical matters, and brought forth an en- tirely different kind of book. No matter what theme he essays, how- ever, the reader can always be sure of a rattling good story In this new volume the author has drawn one character with marvel- lous strength---that of Maraton, a socialistic leader. He comes to Eng- land from the United States to bring about a social revolution and he is hailed by his followers as a veritable Moses, He calls on the prime minis- ter, and falls under the spell of Lady Elizabeth. Conditions in Eng- land are different from those in Am- , and he discards the revolution- idea. A great upheaval has been brought about, transportation lines lack of coal and the country in dan- ger of invasion. When Maraton dis- covers he has been tricked by a sec- ret agent of Germany, his patriotism | asserts itself, and he is strong en- ough to save the situation. He be- comes unalterably opposed to mili- tancy and in favor of constitutional methods of securing reforms. One lays dewn the »ook with a feeling that the anthor has attempt- ed too great a tagk---that he is too tnexperienced in the subject. It is an essay on English social conditions which, at times, becomes long-drawn out and tiresome. The interesting love story running through it all re- deems the book. The author has handléd this well, and has also drawn some really good character sketches, such, for instance, as that of the prime minister, the labor lead- ers, and a German socialist play- wright. Mr. Oppenheim can always be relied upon to tell a gripping, readable story, and he does not fail in this case. THE LIGHT OF WESTERN STARS. By Zane Grey. The Musson Book Co, lad, Toronto. publishers. 48H pages. Price, $1.50. R. Uglow & Co., city. Like many a recent novel, the scene of this story is laid in the southwest, where the cowboy flour- ishes and the ranching country rolls away to the foothills, where the wide-open spaces are allaring and the sunsets are beautiful. Miss Grey has given us a vivid picture of ranch life along the Rio Grande, has shown us the real heart and fife of the cow- boy and has rgvealed the dangers to be encountered on the border, where Mexican "greasers" abound. §iThe heroine, Majesty Hammond, a wealthy New York girl, goes west to vigit her cowboy brother, and from the minute she arrives life meant a different thing to her. She buys a ranch, and, through her woman's trust in him, makes a man of Stew- arf, the pluckiest rancher and hard- | est rider of them all. Then, of course, she marries him--or, rather, wakes to the discovery that she had been. unknowingly married to him by a Spanish priest. This occurred the very night 'she left the traim, and was met at the station by Stew- art, who was drunk and out to "marry "the first white girl he met." | raise first developed the advent of the i | | | | {ears ure pp. 03-03).
