The Democrat has made arrangements a
Tor the publication in serial form of the b
story "Graustark", by George Barr ?
McCutcheOn. This is a recently pub B
iShed romance, and some of our readers e
may have read it, though probably more I
have not. Although its action is located u
IN the present day, it is SO romantic C
story that it seems more as if it should S
have been placed in q former century, in /
the days of chivalry. Whatever just '
criticisms may be made of the story
and there is considerable opportunity
Tor them-it is at any rate a story OF
absorbing interest, which, once begun,
will be followed through to its con- q
cluSion.
