With a little cry from her heart Belle went forward and put her arms
round her father's neck, and Ethel, with hot tears running down her
face, crept up to him and put one of his hands to her lips. Graham bent
over the other, which he held tight, and Peter, who had longed for this
moment through all his illness, didn't give a curse who heard his voice
break, patted the Doctor on the back, and said: "Dear old man, my dear
old father!" over and over again.
THE END
_Books by_ Cosmo Hamilton
The Blindness of Virtue
"A plea to mothers to tell their daughters frankly all the laws
of nature before they arrive at years of possible indiscretion
through innocence. Its characters are uncommonly well drawn and
might have stepped out of life."--_New York Evening Sun._
"A beautiful piece of work dealing with a stupendously difficult
subject with the most dexterous blending of delicacy, dramatic
strength and wholesome candor."--_London Daily Chronicle._
307 Pages. _$1.35 net._
The Miracle of Love
"One of the most notable novels of the year, well worth reading
by those who are seeking more than a pleasant hour, but wholly
delightful merely as a story."--_New Haven Register._
"It is a fine, well told and purposeful tale, with brilliant and
quotable passages."--_Detroit Free Press._
325 Pages. _$1.35 net._
The Door That Has No Key
"A work of genuine power; it is impossible to read it
unmoved."--_Providence Journal._
"A novel to re-read and preserve. A wonderful piece of work,
alive with emotion."--_London World._
"Discusses marriage and divorce. With its brilliant
characteristics it is a notable novel."--_New York Evening Sun._
324 Pages. $_1.35 net._
The Blindness of Virtue
A PLAY IN FOUR ACTS
In this drama of two girls' careers Mr. Hamilton shows
powerfully just how far innocence, that is only ignorance, is a
protection. He levels the finger of accusation against parents
whose cowardice of silence, masquerading as refinement,
threatens ruin in their children's lives.
"It is the biggest sermon on the subject that has ever been
preached."--_Dorothy Dix._
126 Pages. $1.00 _net_.
A Plea for the Younger Generation
"It is a little bomb which any one at all interested in
children--parent, teacher, eugenist--would do well to read and
consider. It is written with the glow of conviction and there is
merit in it from cover to cover."--_Chicago Tribune._
"It is a very small book, but into its compass the author
contrives to say nearly all that is worth while on 'the tragedy
of half truths' on sex matters when they are told to
children."--_San Francisco Chronicle._
