tragedy is set just after the civil war in a
small southern city still seething with the
prejudices, misconceptions and passions Of
the mighty conflict between the states.
George Trescot, Constance, Grayhurst and
all the minor characters are sharply drawn,
but George Trescot stands out as a rarely
lovable man, Constance Trescot as a strong
individual and impressive figure. To the
development OF her character Dr. Mitchell
has brought the sympathy OF a poet and
the insight of philosopher and of wise
physician" a physician OF the mind no less
than Of the body.
To give even a hint Of the development
Of the plot would be unfair to the reader.
but the main fact is based upon a woman S
vendetta that actually came under DR..
Mltchelrs observation. To the making OF
the book he has given much thought and

in the last three years. DR.. Mitchell con-
siders Constance Trescot' the best work
he has achieved. Published by the Century

THE Gift of the Morning Star" by
Armistead c, Gordon, is a story of bunker
life and character yet it is far broader
study than OF the Dunkers. They are types
of a spirit which finds expression in many
sects and unattached individuals The
story tells OF inward struggle, and the
plot is constructed on strong lines. 1t has
originality, tenderness, and power. The
hero recognizes an inherited weakness of
character and overcomes it-"He that over

CHAPTER XII

In the meantime Billy Sucker became q
leader in the boy life of the town so far as
his work at the Express Office (Which he
did with a faithfuness that amounted to
enthusiasm permitted. His first strong
friendship was with one Johnnie Draper,
whom he regarded with enthusiasm until it
transpired that the young affections of both
boys Were centered on the same small girl
one Sally Lunn. She was nine-year- old
beauty, with incredible yellow hair and UNI
belieVahle blue eyes.
Billy's passion for the fair Sally became
so absorbing that it was IN his mind by day
and night. Dark hints at what he might do
were he thWarted in his pursuit of her

field entirely, and Billys love affair became
the absorbing passion of his life. Often in
the evening ne would steal away from the
Cooper house so that he might go 10 gaze
fervidly at the windows of her house, and
one of these evening expeditions OF devo-

saw strange things going on down in the
cove nearby the Lunn homestead, and al
once his romantic soul (fired by recent
perusal of 'Ivanhoe and some of the
Leather Stocking Tales which had been
loaned to him by Mercy, achieved the idea
that kidnappers had come for his adored
one 1t did not occur to him that her own
family was quite capable of protecting her,
but as soon as he had seen that the num-
Der of men in the mysterious sioop was too
great for him to conquer singe-handed, he
started for the Cooper homestead on run.
Cooper was away that evening, but

parson and Sam Bull were gathered be-

the situation when Billy dashed painting
out of the gloom.

dropped her yarn and sprang to him with
an exclamation.

After Billy had sufficiently regained his
wind to permit him to put his wild imagin-

another with amazement
That he could possibly be right In his
idea that the object of the strangers was
TO kidnap and bear away the beauteous

terious enough to arouse their deep and
thrilling interest, and 1t was instantly de-
cided that it was worthy of serious inves-

Betseys mind as they discussed the sitna-
ton hurriedly-the beach below the bluff
from which Billy had seen the invading
throughout the neighborhood Bulls
reach"-and it made her shut her lips SO
closely that they formed a straight, thin
line But they were also shut so tightly
that they did not allow any hint of her
suspicious to escape. So as they started
out no theory in explanation of the extra
ordinary episode was in any mind but
hers, and hers she kept close hidden.
But when they reached the bars (now

meadow lot extending to the bluff she took
command SO positively that no one ques-
toned her.
