R.L.S. WILL COME INTO
HIS OWN AGAIN
Stevenson as a novelist will have a "comeback" and his readers will be, for the most part, Scots; "That is the conclusion expressed by Mr. J.M. Reid in an address, delivered last night to the Robert Louis Stevenson Club in Glasgow.
"I'm going to suggest that Ste- venson (is ceasing to be an author for everybody. He is becoming an author for Scots," said Mr. Reid. "His Scottish novels, Treasure Island, and a good part of the
'Child's Garden of Verse will con- tinue to be read."..

Nationality, added Mr. Reld, was an odd thing. A good many people liked to pretend that so far writing. was concerned nationality didn't exist or aught not to exist, That would not wash, he said. There might be purely international authors, but he could not think of any unless they were the people who wrote short stories for the American British magazines. The very greatest writers were gener- ally the most national of all
WHAT SCOTT LACKED
Stevenson was never so univer sally great a writer as Scott, said Mr. Reid, but he had what scott conspicuously lacked-a graceful and brillant style of his own which, he thought, might yet give Steven- son the esteem of English pro- fessors.
I mink that Stevenson's readers will increasingly be con- fined to Scotland," added Mr. Reid. "He can do what no foreign write er, however brilliant, however full of bright contemporary ideas can do-he can show us ourselves, and he
can give a Scotsman's reactions to the rest of the world. It is a limited sort of Scotland which Stevenson shows us, but it is a country that will always catch at the mind of the Boot who re- members his tradition-that coun-

Every particle of Sanatogen will actually help to restore lost nervous vitality, because Sanatogen pro- vides the nerve cells with phosphorus and albumin-the building materials of nervous
