Catherwood. Houghton, Miff1in & Co.
For sale by the st. Paul Book and Sta

This is a volume Of short stories whose
scenes are laid in the states of Ohio, Ken
lucky, Indiana and Illinois They con-
tain much local color and, better still,
much warm, living humanity They are
sketches, simple enough, of such things
as occur about us every day, could we
but see them in their picturesque light.
Because the material of these stories is
commonplace and conventional, shows all
the more clearly the art of the author,
who can so cleverly weave entertaining
stories from the ordinary scenes and hap
penings about her.
They are all pleasant little stories, not
a heartbreak nor tragedy among them,
and could have been made depressingIy
stupid in the hands Of a writer less gift

which story in this collection is the best.

rights, battling for more wages and few

him set up monument to his memory,
and today 1t stands in the public square
of Sacramento where all men may see.

In her youth Mrs. Boysen had all that
money could give. She was witty and
beautiful belle of Sacramento. A taste
