at the kneeling man. Beyond him, he saw the sun risen above the blue
hills.

The Peacock Feather
By
Leslie Moore
_$1.35 net. By mail, $1.50_
In a moment of reminiscent detachment the wearer of the Peacock feather
describes himself as “one whom Fate in one of her freakish moods had
wedded to the roads, the highways and hedges, the fields and woods. Once
Cupid had touched him with his wing—the merest flick of a feather. The
man—poor fool!—fancied himself wounded. Later when he looked for the
scar, he found there was none.” And so he wandered.
Here is a rare love story, that breathes of the open spaces and is
filled with the lure of the road.

The
Wall of Partition
By
Florence L. Barclay
Author of “The Rosary,” “The Broken Halo,” “The Following
of the Star,” “The Mistress of Shenstone,” etc.
_Color Frontispiece. 12^o. $1.35_
Mrs. Barclay’s new story opens with the
return of the hero to London after an absence
of ten years. Ten years before, Rodney
Steele had been—no fabulous hero—but just
an honorable man in a tight place, and the
girl he loved and trusted had turned on him
within a week of the day which was to
make her altogether his. Ten years, however,
have not quenched the altar fires of
his affection and—But it would be unfair
to let the reader peep over the wall of partition
or to forestall by more than this hint
the telling of a story that is in Mrs. Barclay’s
best vein.
Besides the intense love interest the story
is redolent with a delightful humor.
