4 In the perturbation Of the story,
none of its beauty or interest has
| been sacrificed. With Kentucky for
their background, the scenes Of

is a Scotch boy who comes to this

the steamship he meets Ruth Nelson
and loses his heart to her through
her kindness and sympathy. He fol-
lows her to Kentucky where he meets
with exciting adventures. and with
! out revealing the denouement of the
story, it is sufficient to say that
Sandy wins Ruth after a series Of eX-
citing incidents that thrill and hold
the interest to the last scene.
