Price, $1.00. In "When Christmas Crossed the Peace" Nellie L. McClung has given us an attractive little book. She has set her characters in Northern Al- berta, the land of short days and of nights brilliant with the flaming northern lights that dart across the sky with "tongues of violet, amber and opal and with a rustling sound like the crumpling of silk." In this far northern land, the Christmas merrimént of the country which has been settled for generations seems far away to the women who have re- collections of happy gatherings in their childhood. A fammer's wife. | unable to stand up any longer against the loneliness of the land "north of the Peace," and a husband who spends the money that might huy Christmas cheer and other good things for her and the daughter on bootleggers whiskey, loses her hold on the present and becomes a child again. She fancies she is getting ready for a Christmas tree in Nova Scotia, and her daughter, alarmed, brings the bright voung. district nurse, who finds it takes all her own courage to live alone in her tiny log house, to the rescue. A Christ- mas tree for the settlement! _ That would be the thing needed by the lonely woman Here a young mount- ed policeman comes into the story: He is on the track of the bootleggers at The Crossing, and Bill Adams, whose life the nurse has saved when he was at death's door with pneumonia, is the man who is the go-between, who buys the bootleg- ger's whiskey for the farmers. The policeman breaks his leg, the nurse evolves a plan by which she gets the rell of money from old. Bill Adams, and with his consent buys all sorts of delightful things for the Chnst- mas tree, which in the end is enjoy- ed by everyone. A lightly touched love story with a happy ending adds to the pleasure of the readers of this little Christmas book. McClung, Thomas By Publishers. A LOST LADY.

While the skin is the object of the attack the real seat of the disease is in the blood on account of the entire circulation being poisoned. Burdock Blood Bitters quickly and effectually banishes pimples and all other skin diseases as it goes right to the root of the trouble by cleansing and enriching the blood. Mr. Conrad Anderson, Kelfield, Sask., writes:--"A year ago I had an awful attack of pimples. They broke out all over my face and I could not get rid of them in any way. One day a friend told me about your 'Burdock Blood Bitters and let me have a bottle he had to spare. After using it. I noticed a change, so I bought three more bottles, and now I don't know there is such a thing as pimples." B.B.B. is mannfactured only by fhe T.

Canada does not consist entirely of British and French elements, and its literature , cannot indefinitely be maintained by those elements alone. Among the newer arrivals none ars of higher enlture or finer blood than the Icelanders, and it is not surpris- ing to find the Icelandic settlements among the first to become vocal. "The Viking Heart," by Laura Sal. verson (McClelland & Stewart, To- ronto), is a record of the annals of a group of Icelandic families who settled in Manitoba In the 'seventies; what is more important is that it is a record of lives cof struggle and hardship nobly lived, and that it is told by a writer with an exceptional sense of the dignity and tragedy of the common evants of pioneer exi;t- ence, and of the shallowness and vanity of much that passes for "eivi- lization" on this continent. Very rambling and episodic in structure, it is sineere and vigorous in the de- tion of its various incidents and characters. A very notable Canadian novel, by a Canadian-born author of Icelandic parentage who knows per- fectly what she is writing about, and recently won the first prize 'in |& short-story competition hela by thie Women's Canadian Club of Re- gina. Old Times in Eastern Townships, "Spinning Wheels -and Home- spun," by Helen E. Williams (Me- Clelland & Stewart, Toronto, $2.50). is a Canadian Book, a very ambitious book, and -on the whole a very: sue- cessful book. It is an effort to em- body in words (much assisted, it. is true, by the experienced and equally Canadian pencil of they illustrator, €. M. Manly) the "atmosphere" of a large number of paral scenes, bofh natural and human, of this fair Do- minion, but chiefly. of that old and lovely part of it called the Eastern Townships. Tt is not a perfectly sue- cessful book. There is a point be yond which Miss Williams' style. usually simple. honest and loving, seems unable to go without sliding oft into amateurishness. It hurts the sensitive reader, after bein taken to the top of a (for the Eaat- ern Townships) exceedingly hich mountain, and shown in all their glittering color the vast expanse of fashing lakes and velvet forest-tons below him, to learn that to Miss Wil- liams their coloring hes "something operatic" about it, and that "momen- tarily you expect to see Scotti mount - ing from Nagasaki and the sea." Scotti, and his tinkling geishas, and his brassy orchestra, amid the unat- terable silences of the sumit of Owl's Head! It is tq weep! Bu' we should not want to if Miss Williams had not so deftly ard artistically transported us in very reality to that noble pinnacle before kicking us down go. hathetically to the tawdry artificiality of the opera house. . . > The old, soll-rooted country life of Canada is in this book as well as the scenery, the racy talk of the pione:rs as well 2s the sigh of the wind in the spruces. It is a book, and with restraint Miss liams will give us a yet better one. -- Taking Life Lightly, 1 Mr. Norris Hodgins is a young Canadian whose serious business, we believe, consists in teaching farm- ers what to feed to sick cows and where the world saw only |. here.
