 A very bright and pleasing story is "A Quaker Maiden" by Evelyn Ray mond. author of "A Yankee Girl'' and other successful tales. The reader fol- lows with real interest the fortunes of the little Quaker maiden, Delight Rolo- son. from her pathetic home leaving and the genuine sorrow of the village peo- pie at parting with her. on to the end of the story. Delight is an orphan, reared in all the simplicity of a Quaker family. who goes to make her home with a wealthy cousin. She is first greeted with derision, but gradually her unfailing gentleness and sterling char acter win the respect of her cousins and at d time of financial disaster she be- comes the main stay and reliance of the entire family. Interwoven is the mar ration of an attempt of interruptions sehemers to deprive Delight of a mys- terious inheritance and Kidnapping is even resorted to. Delight wins, however. The readers sympathies are with De- light from start to finish, and the author has achieved quite a triumph in por- traying this singularly fine and charm ing heroine.
