The war in South Africa has caused : several publishers to advertise forth- coming histories of that country. We have several of the prospectus books before us. One is from the pen ofa newspaper correspondent who was in South Africa a short time ago, but is jnot there at all now. Another is a rehash of Livingstore’s and Stanley’s travels, with a few engravings and pages added. Apparently newspaper | reports and paste and scissors are re. lied on to make up nearly all such | fortheoming books on South Africa. | | But we are glad to know that South Africa, with the added interest of the | war, is going to be the subJect of one, 1 thors of the present day, and that | the same is not being run through | with :ightning speed, but has been in | preparation for several years. John | Clarke Ridpath, L. L. D., author of ««Cyelopaedia of Universal History,” «Life and Times of Gladstone,” ‘‘His-; tory of the world,” ete., is undoubt- | edly the best American historian li- ving, and the equal of any historian of anv ,and. He is assisted by Ed- | ward S. Ellis, M. A., author of the Standard Historv of the United States, a work that has made Mr. Ellis a world wide reputation. A considerable part had already been written when hostilities commenced, and a great number of photographs and drawings obtained while oflicial sources were easy of access. À 3 war became a certainty, arrange- ments were made for direot eorrespon- dence as to the progress of events. The work will excell all others asa record of the war, and be ineompara- ble in other respects. It will be pro- fusely and handsomely illustrated rhere will be about 150 fall page, half tone engravingæs, executed in a style su} erior to that of the largest Ameri- cau magazines, and certainly in strik- |; ine and beautiful contrast to the illus-| trations in the other prospe:tuses that have seen. ‘These will comprise scenes in South Africa, and sketches of the great battles— many of which have been sent fr sm South Africa di- rect to the publishers—life like por- traits ft Lord Roberts, Lord Kitche- ner, Col. Otter, Gen. Joubert, Paul Krager and other prominent comman- ders of the British and Boer forees. Of special interest will be the section devoted to the Canadian contingent, wbieh will be from the pen of Mr. J. >| A. ('ooper, managing editor of the £ SE Canadian Magazine and one of the a- blest writers in the Dominion. There will be twenty full page illustrations of the first Canadian contingent, and equal justice will be done the s2cond contingent now in course of organiza- tion. À comparison of the prospectus of this book by the side of several o- ther before us, shows at a glance its great superiority in paper, printing, engraving and binding, and yet the price is no higher than the others. The work is being published jointly by two of the largest and wealthiest publishing firms in the United States, and a Canadian edition is being issued by the World PublishingCompeuy, of Guelph Canada ; a firm that publishes only the best books, a firm that has exported millions of books to foreign contries, that has sent five hundred men to Australia, and South Africa fer the last mineteen years, which gives it an immense advantage over any rival publisher in securing pho- tagraphs and material, an article from its representative being a special feature. The maps contained in the work are the best we have yet seen of South Africa. Surely a fortune awaits the publishing firm and a rich har- vest for the agents on such a book and at such a time. The eall for agents by The World Publishing Company, of Guelph, Ont., for this great work, will be found in auother eolumn. À Southern Jamboree We have just reeeived from the pu- blishers a copy of th:s most unique musical composition. It is certainly one of the most catchy and attractive pieees of musie that we have ever heard. It is almost impossible to keep your feet sti:l while it is being played and it is making as bigahit as ‘‘Geor- gia Camp Meeting” A suflieient guarantee of its merit is the fact that it is from the pen of Mr. J. W. Ler- man, the composer of the now famous ‘‘Kaya Kaya Dance.” It has been de- dicated to Mr. Thos. F. Shannon and in‘roduced by him and his famous Twenty-Third Regiment Band, N. G. 8. N. Y. Mr. Shannon, who was for- merly manager of Sousa’s Great Band, knows a good thing wheu he $sees it and he is having such success in playing it that Sousa, Innis, Brooke, : Washington Marine and s]l the largest [and best known bands in the coantry |have taken it up and are now playing | it to most enthusiastic audienees. The regular price of this music is 60c per ; Copy, but 1f our readers will be sure | to mention the name of this paper they can secure a copy by sending 20 | to the Union Mutual Music Co., 20cts. | E. 14th Street, New York. Bakers’ Bad We little know the toil and hardship that those who make the ‘Staff of Life’ undergo. : Long hours in superheated and poorly ventilated work- rooms is hard on the system, gives the kidneys more work than they | can properly do, throws poison into the | system that should be carried off by these | delicate filters. Then the back gets bad— Not much uso applying liniments and | plasters. You must reach the Kidneys to cure the back. DOAN’S Kidney Pills cure all kinds of Bad Backs by restoring the Kidneys to healthy action. Mr. Walter Buchanan, who has con- ducted a bakery in Sarnia, Ont., forthe past 15 years, says: ‘For a number of years previous to taking Doan'’s Kidney Pills I suffered a great deal from acute pains across the small of my back, pains in the back of my head, dizziness, weary feeling and eneral debility. From the first few doses of oan’s Kidney Pills I commenced to improve, and I have continued until I am to-day a well man. | I have not gota pain or ache about me.
