It was our pleasure to receive a reviewer's coj>y some I days previous to the hook's publico.

His work is worthy, of being ranked with those of such satirists as Voltaire^ Anatole France.' Swift and Ra iielais. The situations ^hut occur iu the Tiook are such that only the keenest of minds could image. Th(. author I wrote us in answer to our telegram uf Cengratu 1 ations' ant!~ appreciation ( ?after reading"his. hook: "So glad you | 111,7;?Plo^l, st ?' st I mull" . . . , we i\C- I groes, have sighed and moaned fori so long that it is about time we had j a good laugh at America's ct)lor com- | plex. The same goes for our Nor- j die friends. If we can just get A-i mei'ieans laughing, at the faiy problem its solution will "not be far oif. j __Nothing can "withstand a 'few' f"-<yi guffaws."

The. person who reads Black No More and I fails to find mirth provoking situa- j .tions 'in abundance miist have a very v\poor setose of humor. The author projects'his mind into the "future. The cVohTiT -that"?takoplace in Black No More transpire between the years lO.'i.'! and lt?40.-Dr. Junius Crookman, a Negro, discovers j during his medical course in CJermany a scrum that \yill r?honp-,. :i { ~~ ^Negro to a white Tersojr within three days time.. Dr. Crookman because of thIs kltowledge becomes very affluent and influential. He establishes--his, sanitariums throughout America Arid gra'dually America's dark skinned populace disappears. Among the must amusing, situations in the huuk, is the metamorphosis of Mux Disher who. an ' being rebuffed by a pale faced damsel from Atlanta Avben be asked her for a dance at a cabaretJ decided to take advantage of Dr. Crooknian's scientific skill. Max was . rec "eated. After becoming white' he sold his story to a < 1 fI.iIy newspaper i for one thousand dollars, and -en-1 trained for Atlanta wheVe he hoped i to find his idol of thr llarlcni cnlnircl Throughout the country opposition | to Black No .More Incorported, as Dr. Crookman's establishment was ^ called, was- rife.

Early during Fishm-'s stay in Atlanta he had discovered that "the girl of his dreams was (even's ! daughter. He "had paid ardent court to her and in* cpTisetjuence they be-! came man and wife. Matters ran a- ; long rather smoothly until it was j ??4?diwoverwt1 that 'Mr?'., Fjah.er- wax. to] ? become a mdther. Max was worried | to death for Dr. Grobkmtni^r^ysteni 9^ made no provisions for changing the germ' cells'. He knew that any offspring of his was bound to show traces of darkness. Mr. Schuyler's j genius shows itself in the manner this situation is taken care "of. A keener bit of satire was never .perpetrated.!, n i i . .

He had employed a genea?-i?legist to look into the family liistor-1 ies of his republican adversaries. The' researches made by this geneaologisU revealed that both (livens and Sriobbcraft had a great deal - of Negro blood in them. On discovering this Snobbcraft .intended having all the evidence destroyed but bol'oiy this could be accomplished the republicans obtained the information and made the best use of it. After Mrs. Fisher had had hm- l>nby"in Atlanta, Max was called to the home. . The doctor told him that the child showed unmistakably Negroid features, but only h0 and the nurse kenw it and assured him that* ho could put the infant away for a eondideration.' Fisher was in a quandary as to whether lie should forfeit his power und prestige for 1 he joy uf pull! I llltv or-vice versa. While he deliberated a news boy was heard in the streets bellowing the uew* ^2bouti Given's Negro blood having been discovered. * Shortly afterwards Givens (rushed into his daughter's room and showed her what the pa-.. - pers said. She called her husband and expressed her deep regret that she. had married him under the im ~ pression that she was a piire Nordic. She cursed her,father for having caused .her such ignominy. Fisher then assured her that he was the cause of their child's swarthiness and not., she. He told her?how she Kad^ebuflfed him in New York and how he had become white on her account.
