One of Roberts Bros most attractive
books of late Issue is Browns Retreat
and other stories, by Anna Eichberg
King. The short story is again coming
into prominence and is filling the in
creasing demand of the reading public
who desire short, bright, crisp and
wholesome story which can be quickly
read, is entertaining and amusing, and
easily digested. The author writes in a
style peculiar to herself and in very
touching and life like strain. II she
can be compared with any of the prom
inenb short story writers of the present
time, we should say that her style and
pathos are similar to Richard Harding
Davis. This volume is delightfully."-
fresh and entertaining, and quite out OF
the common in its theme. In
the first story, Browns Retreat,
from which the book obtains
its title, we find that the principal char
acter, Brown, was an escaped burglar
his "retreat" was little shop in a
crooked little English village, and his
guardian was an elf-like niece. 1t is a
very pathetic little story and good pen
picture of life among the lowly. The
remaining stories are entitled Odelia
