dise Valley. Mt. Rainier National Park.
Right-July on the Charmed Land coast.

All in a Day in

The Charmed Land

-Come this Vacation

Y Rainer National Park and dine 6,000 feet in the air at the base of the most OU will take a morning dip in the sea and after luncheon motor up to Mt.

majestic and inspiring mountain peak on the Continent outside of Alaska, a mountain whose glaciers exceed the entire glacial system of Switzerland and whose base is a gorgeous meadow of Alpine flowers. The horizon will be bounded by other similar peaks. You will do a bit of climbing and if you're fit you will go to the top with the Swiss guides.

You will make pilgrimages to some of the entrancing mountain lakes and cast a fly and fill your creel in nearby streams. You'll go for the King Salmon in the inner reaches of the ocean, and motor over hardsurfaced roads along the sea, through stately forests and beautiful countrysides.

You will find good golf everywhere. You will go yachting, canoeing, and swimming; hike and climb and camp.

You will have a real Charmed Land vacation and round it out perhaps by running up to Alaska, the world's supreme

scenic trip, for the final climax to a golden

summer.

The air has the tang of the sea, the ozone of the mountains and the fragrance of the forests always cool, balmy and restful. You will wonder how you can eat so much and sleep so much and feel so wonderfully fit.

Low round trip excursion fares or a trip through Wonderland for the transcontinental motorist.

Excellent accommodations everywhere and reasonable costs.

Send for the Charmed Land booklet, brimming with alluring details, and come to us this year.

No visitor to any part of the Pacific Coast should fail to travel at least one way via Seattle and The Charmed Land.

"Well, dad, yu's pretty middlin' ole, an' yu's allus chawed a lot o' tobakker. How ole is yer, anyway?'

'Well, Sam, I s'pecs I's about eighty, but if I hadn't nevah chawed no tobakker I mout be a hun'erd by dis time.'

From Representative W. G. Connery, of Massachusetts:

"A colored regiment was about to go over the top one morning. A big colored soldier jumped on the parapet of the trench and shouted, 'Come on, you Boche, send ovah yo' minnywerfers, yo' whiz-bangs, yo' Austrian eighty-eights, yo' two hundred tens, send ovah ev'ything yo' got, yo' Boche, I'se awaitin', I'se awaitin'!'

"Just then a big two hundred ten shell exploded alongside of him, picked him up and blew him about thirty yards down the trench. He picked himself up out of the mud, felt himself all over to see if he was wounded, found out he wasn't and then gasped out, 'Good Lawd, man, dat's whut I

calls service!" "

Kermit Roosevelt, now in the Far East, has completed with the Toyo Kisen Kaisha Line, of Japan, arrangements for a joint round-world service, according to "American Shipping." The joint service will be known as the T. K. K.-Roosevelt Line. The Roosevelt Steamship Co. will be general agents for the United States Atlantic and Gulf coasts, and Toyo Kisen Kaisha will be general agents on the Pacific coast and in the Far East.

From the London "Mail:" Doctor-"Drink. That is what's the matter with you. You must give it up at once."

A Trial for Sailing Honors in Seattle Harbor

A Swedish publishing house, according to the "Writer," is the first in the world to film its own books. "This is the beginning of a system whereby imaginative writers may see more faithful adaptation of their works to the screen. The firm in question," says the "Writer," "announces the establishment of its own film studio and scenario department," as a result of the frequent application of Swedish authors to the publishers to help them in disposing of the film rights to their own works.

Three New Macmillan Novels:

H. G. WELLS'

Great new novel of Utopia, of perfection and beauty, of romance,
morals, arts and sciences, 2000 years hence

Men Like Gods

[ocr errors]

"Wells' new book is a brilliant success. He has returned to the theme of The Time Machine' and has transported us to a sister planet, two thousand years ahead of us in civilization. The adventures of Lord Balfour and Mr. Winston Churchill in Utopia are delicious. Mr. Wells has never, I think, written better than in this book.”—Dean Inge, in the London Evening Standard.

"One of the most delightful novels that Mr. Wells has ever written. It is a brilliant and inspired coup d'œil and the best tonic for a Ruhr-depressed public. We wish it many editions." -The Spectator, London. Price $2.00

ERNEST POOLE'S

Powerful new novel of contrasts, a moving story of
human relationships

Danger

The author of "The Harbor," a novel which is most significant for its depth of power, has turned psychoanalyst with excellent results. In this novel, through a series of incidents increasing in dramatic intensity to a climax of tremendous power, Mr. Poole deals with one of the grave dangers to presentday civilization.

Rarely has there appeared in fiction a more striking character than Maud Brewer, whose struggles in what she conceives to be the interest of humanity bring those close to her, face to face with a danger which is inherent in the tense chaotic life of the world since the World War, and which might suddenly menace ourselves. Price $2.00

IRVING BACHELLER'S

New novel of patent religion, industrious idleness, high blood
pressure and India-rubber parents

The Scudders

Everybody knows the Scudders. Their Gwendolyns and Earl St. Clairs smile at you from the photogravure section of the Sunday papers, their high-powered cars dash madly through your slumbering hamlet at ungodly hours near dawn, and they form the topic of conversation at the Ladies' Sewing Circle. "The Scudders," is a keen, well-turned satire on the follies of fashionable life, written by a man whose wit and humor have made him famous.

Caste and Outcast

The New York Tribune: "This is the story of a Bengali Brahmin of his youth in India, Caste,' and of his experiences in America, Outcast.' The book contains the most precious kind of knowledge for a modern man, the knowledge of another race and civilization. We ought to have a book like this written by a chosen youth from every nation in the world-by a young man who, like Mr. Mukerji, represents the best in his own tradition and who has a gift for words."
