The boy of yesterday--the man of today--knows the Rollo books, and is familiar with the method by which the mind of young Master Mollycoddle was improved by the guidance and precepts of his father and Uncle George. Those who survived such a course of purification and still live will enjoy this story of Rollo's journey to our national capital. It is not written for the young in years, but for the young in heart--for the good citizen who can see the funny side of a situation that is serious, and can laugh at the mistakes and foibles of our great men of today without malice or viciousness. The book is about the Great War which has caused so many tears of sorrow, and the author's only desire is to replace those _bitter tears_ with _tears of mirth_. TWEEDIE, THE STORY OF A TRUE HEART _By Isla May Mullins_ _Author of "The Blossom Shop Stories," etc._ _Cloth decorative, 12mo, illustrated, $1.50_ In this story Mrs. Mullins has given us another delightful story of the South. The Carlton family--lovable old Professor Carlton, and his rather wilful daughter Ruth--twenty-three years old and with decided ideas as to her future--decide to move to the country in order to have more time to devote to writing. Many changes come to them while in the country, the greatest of which is Tweedie--a simple, unpretentious little body who is an optimist through and through--but does not know it. In a subtle, amusing way Tweedie makes her influence felt. At first some people would consider her a pest, but would finally agree with the Carlton family that she was "Unselfishness Incarnate." It is the type of story that will entertain and amuse both old and young. The press has commented on Mrs. Mullins' previous books as follows: "Frankly and wholly romance is this book, and lovable--as is a fairy tale properly told. And the book's author has a style that's all her own, that strikes one as praiseworthily original throughout."--_Chicago Inter-Ocean._ "A rare and gracious picture of the unfolding of life for the young girl, told with a delicate sympathy and understanding that must touch alike the hearts of young and old."--_Louisville (Ky.) Times._ THE AMBASSADOR'S TRUNK _By George Barton_ _Author of "The World's Greatest Military Spies and Secret Service Agents," "The Mystery of the Red Flame," "The Strange Adventures of Bromley Barnes," etc._ _Cloth decorative, 12mo, illustrated, $1.50_ Bromley Barnes, retired chief of the Secret Service, an important State document, a green wallet, the Ambassador's trunk--these are the ingredients, which, properly mixed, and served in attractive format and binding, produce a draught that will keep you awake long past your regular bedtime. Mr. Barton is master of the mystery story, and in this absorbing narrative the author has surpassed his best previous successes.
