Given Away Within the last few weeks there has been an overwhelming demand for a remarkable book dealing with a subject of absorbing interest, a subject that interests both voong and old, rich and poor alike. This lible volume does not ascend into the realms of visions; on the con- trary, it tears aside the curtain that so OfWL obscures our understanding of things, and it deals with plain, cold facts. It enlightens the man who is interested, and inetracts and in forms the man who is ignorant. It tells of -,LteN, fields and pastures green, and points—without fear or favour—to where ttooae fields and pas- tures lie. This is not a book for the library shelf. It Is a book to be read, and can be read by the young as well as the old. It will serve u a fund of information for the former and a source of inspiration to the tetter. For every careful thrifty man or woman it) ia one of toe books that is essential. One's education is not com plete without having read its thrilling and fas cinating pages.
