Judge’s Between Covers Theodore Roosevelt has appeared on the horizon with a book on preparedness, “* God and Take Your Own Part” (The George H. Doran Company; $1.50). Per- sonal opinion will enter largely into the enjoyment of this book. If you are a paci- fist, you will probably take paradoxical at some of its rema’ you area preparedness advocate, you will find your ideas strongly upheld. The vivid personality of the author is permitted free play. * The possibilities of a war with one of the et forth in Cleve- Phe Conquest of America” (The George H. Doran Company). It is. a rather poorly written tale of the in- vasion of the United States by Germany, our subjugation, and ultimate victory. Some of the things set forth could undoubt- edly happen; but as a whole the war as described is fantastic. As an argument for preparedness, however, it has the virtue of making the reader think, and this will do no one any harm. umbrage a “The Musical Blue Book of America’ (The Musical Blue Book Company, Inc.) forms a good guide. It contains the names, addresses, etc., of the prominent artists, tabulated by cities. * Once more the life in the country of the Pennsylvania Dutch is fascinatingly pic- tured by Helen R. Martin in her new book, “Her Husband’s Purse’ (Doubleday, Page & Co.; net $1.35). A somewhat different class of people is treated in this book than we have heretofore read of; but none of Miss Martin’s charm is missing ¢ F. Berkeley Smith has produced a ro- mance ‘ance, the fair and faraway “Babette” (Doubleday, Page & Company; $1.35). The style is stron, reminiscent of Victor Hugo, from a standpoi int of imita- tiveness; but the story is charmingly told, and we get interesting pictures of rural life, and a glimpse of that delightfully improper Montmartre district’ of Paris. “Babette” should be read as dessert, a place in literary gastronomics to which it is eminently well fitted. 2 Vindication” (By Harriet T. Comstock; Doubleday, Page & Co.; net $1.35) the problem centers around two sets of parents and an equal number of children. The difficulty comes in trying to adjudge the respective responsibility of the parents, Mingled with hush-moncy and a smack of sex is a love-story of considerable interest.

Nujol is particularly valuable in such cases, be- cause it has the property of absorbing and remov- ing intestinal toxins, besides giving safe and effective relief in most cases of periodic and chronic constipation. Nujol is not a purge nor a laxative. It acts in effect as a mechanical lubricant. It prevents the intestinal contents from becoming hard and so facilitates the normal processes of evacuation. Most druggists carry Nujol, which is sold, only in pint bottles packed in cartons bearing the Nujol trademark. If your druggist does not carry Nujol, accept no substitute. We will send a pint bottle prepaid to any point in the United States on receipt of 75c. — money order or stamps. “The Rational Treat- Address Dept. 13.
