THE DRAGNET. By Elizabeth B. Bohan.
Illustrated. Cloth. Price, $1.50.
A timely story dealing with the liquor question and municipal reform.
These topics are interwoven in a powerful story, in a fearless way that
will stimulate thought along these lines.
CHANEY'S STRATAGEM. By Hannah Courtenay Pinnix.
Illustrated. Cloth. Price, $1.60.
A striking piece of fiction. The sudden and unexpected turn of Fortune's
Wheel, by which the heroine and the other characters find their level,
makes mighty interesting reading.
TOMPKINSVILLE FOLKS. By Nettie Stevens.
Illustrated. Cloth. Price, $1.50.
Is a careful study of human nature in human life. The pathos and charm of
its rural setting and homely characters are drawn with firm yet skilful
touch.
THE CAREER OF JOY. By Grace Eleanore Towndrow.
Illustrated. Cloth. Price, $1.25.
Genuinely, tenderly, and with a pervasive charm impossible to describe,
the author tells the story of the old love, which returns to the woman's
life after the fetters of a loveless marriage enchain her. Which path
shall she choose?
THE VASSALAGE. By Adelaide Fuller Bell.
Illustrated. Cloth. Price, $1.50.
The story is vivid, dramatic, picturesque, and the strong strange psychic
forces in the lives of the principal characters add a wholly unique
interest to the tale.
THE BELL COW. By Bryant E. Sherman.
Illustrated. Cloth. Price, $1.50.
Decidedly a story of simple country life. The trials and pleasures are
those of the out-of-the-way places. There is plot strong enough to keep
the reader's interest from cover to cover. Humor, pathos and excitement
are all here, but the most important part is played by the Aunt Betsy,
the old maid with the big heart.
ALICE BRENTON. By Mary Josephine Dale.
Illustrated. Cloth. Price, $1.50.
The author has drawn a vivid picture of Colonial Newport, with her wealth
and culture, spacious mansions and handsome grounds.
Mrs. Gale describes the sufferings and privations of the people during
those trying days, calls attention to the depredations of the soldiers,
and in the end makes love triumph over all obstacles. The book has
ingenuity in plot, and much interesting material.--_The News, Newport,
R. I._
THE DOOR WHERE THE WRONG LAY. By Mary E. Greene.
Illustrated. Cloth. Price, $1.50.
A story that will well repay the reading is "The Door Where The Wrong
Lay." The plot is a strange and unusual one, and the story is one
which will linger in the memory long after many a lighter tale is
forgotten.--_Boston Times._
A KNIGHT IN HOMESPUN. By John Charles Spoth.
Illustrated. Cloth. Price, $1.50.
