The book is the latest novel written by J2o Anderson Norris of New York City, formerly of Wichita. The book Is entitled, "The Way of the Wind," and is descriptive of the psychological effect of the old time Kansas winds upon human beings. Both because th scene of the story is Kansas, and because of Mrs. Nor-ris's many friends in this part of the state, this is a serial which should command extraordinary interest. About ten years ago Mrs.

Norris, already well known" through her magazine and Journalistic sketches of the struggles and hardships of the pioneer women of the west, came to New York and achieved national fame by the publication of a book "The Color of His Soul" which was the story "of a ypung Socialist of the Herron type" said the Boston Transcript "Who in shouting about he wrongs of some people went cIkc Ckoicest Gifts of tke Giiristmas Season A re Tkose of tlie Heart Ratker Tnan of tKe Season.

It relieves the essential tragedy of the theme while leaving its pathos undisturbed. This humor is of all shades, ranging from broad exaggeration in the early part of the story before the inevitableness of the tragedy has gripped the reader's mind, and when, therefore, it does not jar upon him, to the form of genial satire in the latter pages, where the contrast is presented of the pioneers as they were in the days of struggle, and of the same people when they had to deal with the new and bewildering problems of prosperity.

The literary style of the book proves Mrs. Norris a true poet. The Way of the Wind is an idj'l, a picture-story, and if the author had been an ancient Greek, or indeed were a modern French woman, this fact would be clearly recognized by the critics.

Collar boxes, purses, handbags, tie holders, suitcases, valises, badges of all sorts, and eyeglass cases all can be touched with real individuality, and enhanced many fold very quickly by the Eagle Press. Dee Allen, manager of this department of the Eagle, also has a novelty which is making a hit. This is to take Christmas gift umbrellas and print the recipient's name in gold letters on the cloth. The name is printed on the cloth on the inside, where it does not show conspicuously. The professional umbrella borrower who keeps making the "mistake" of getting the wrong umbrella is likely to be halted in time when he raises an umbrella bearing, the owner's name in gold leaf.

This novelty adds very much to the gift umbrella. C7 so far as to forget their rights," sa'd the New York Evening Sun. Encouraged by the success of this book, Mrs. Norris, always interested 4n the struggles of the poor of either east or west, continued her work among those of the east side by establishing single handed The East Side Magazine, being, to use the words of the New York World, its "owner, editor-in-chief, several other kinds of editors, business manager, chief advertising agent and plain office boy no, not plain." The magazine after a hard struggle for existence, during which its "Pooh-Bah" editor relinquished all other writing, is now firmly established, being about to complete its third year; and Mrs. Norris has again turned to fiction, reverting to her early experiences in Kansas, when that gritty state was passing through its ordeal of cyclones, grasshoppers and hot winds to the proud position which it now holds as one of the most pros-, perous sisters of the Union.

The new story is, in a sense, the complement of "The Color of Ills Soul," depicting in its hero a coul who is as white as that of the chief character of the early novel was black. Seth (he needs no surname) is of the stuff of which the great pioneers are made; man who toils on through almost overwhelming difficulties- to make a home for his wife, and the children who are to come, with the vision of a glorious future ever before his eyes. Unfortunately Celia, his Kentucky wife. Is a degenerate scion of the stock of Daniel Boone In whom the labors of her hardy ancestors have become the essentials of her very existence. The rough winds of Kansas which fill Seth with joy of contest are a terror to her, before which at last she flies to the calm of her "Old Kentucky home," leaving her husband and the first-born behind.

Her place as mother is taken by Cyclona, a foundling of the storm who loves the wind even more Intensely than Seth does, and who comes to love the abandoned husband. But Seth, under great temptation reamins rue to Celia and tragedy, for which we must go to Greek literature for a parallel, results, furnishing the artistic motive of the story. There is, however, an element In The Way of the Wind lacking in the greatest work of the ancients, in whom the sense of music was undeveloped. The story is a symphony. The voice of the wind wails or woos through all its pages, giving poetic unity to the story.

Cyclona is but a person show that one person In ten showed tubercular lesions. There Is an amazing averag-e. Count off 100 persons, and realize if you can, that it is likely that ten of them have tuberculosis. With favorable conditions, strong: constitutions and rational hygiene, nine out of ten persons successfully combat the bacilli of tuberculosis, and survive. But what of the tenth person? With a constitution weakened from some other cause, or from conditions favorable to the spread of the disease, this person lingers, scatters infection Tiht and left to hundreds of other persons, and finally dfes.

With people in well-to-do circumstances a tuberculosis patient is less dangerous than among the indigent. People of means are able to isolate a patient, or to take the patient Into the out-doors where the chances of recovery are greater thanln the crowded cities. But what of the impoverished person, the patient who cannot afford to stop working somewhere, and who by the necessity of earning his bread, spreads infection to his colleagues? It is to help those who cannot help themselves that the American Red Cross society is devoting its most itrenuous efforts. Tuberculosis is not peculiar to any one part of the country, but is national In Its ravages. Therefore, the campaign against it must be national.

As an equitable method of distributing the funds received for the benefit of this work, the society is this year permitting localities to apply at once to local conditions 85 per cent of the proceeds received from the sale of the lied Cross seals. One health officer has stated that there are in Wichita at the present time 176 tubercular cases in extreme need. Others think that this number Is very conservative, and that there are twice that many cases that need care not only from a humane reason, but In order to protect the health of the community from infection. rhyslcians are beginning to realize more strongly than ever before that tuberculosis is one of the most easily communicated diseases.

The sudden ending of the session came after Oscar Lawler, special government investigator, had received a telegram in code. He declined to discuss the message, but the adjournment immediately followed. Then Lawler and Malcolm McLaren, the Burns detective, hurried to Lawler's private office.

These lists are not to be made public, buth are for the information of physicians and health authorities, so that the public may be protected. In Wichita there is no adequate place to take care of these patients who need attention, and who are daily ing the health of those who are free fromthe disease. The hospitals will not take the patients in, because the danger of the disease requires especial attention and extra nurses. From the sale of the Red Cross seals the Rev. M.
