got the welfare of their children enough
at heart to insist on their being at home

and abate the nuisance. as this appears
to be the only way Of opening those

John IIabberton. the author Of
"Helen's Babies" "Brueton's Bayou
etc. contributes the complete novel
for the December number Of Lippin-
colts Magazine. 1t is a remarkable
and strikingly original story, dealing
| with the life of an cX-cOnvict. who
while serving his term i'm prison be-
| comes converted to Christianity. The
! hero docs not embrace any particular
form Of belief. and is man of limited
intelligence. but he earnestly tries to
! live up to the light thatis in him. and so
is brought into sharp contrast with
maay about him who are followers of
the letter rather than of the spirit of
Christianity. The moral change
wrought in the life Of the eI-convict.
his antiuence upon others. his family
relations, his struggles are described
with graphic pen. The scene of the
story is laid in avillage. and a Judge, a
minister, hypocritical deacon, an
agnostic young lawyer, and other viii
lage characters are capitally portrayed.
Additional interest is lent to the story
because 1t is founded on fact; its lead
ing events were known to Henry Ward
Beecher, who often urged Mr.. IIabber-
ton to weave them into tale "All he
Knew" will be read by both believers
and non-believers with the keenest
interest.
