SAVED FOR A PURPOSE"

"Saved for a Purpose" the new
book just off the press, written by
Mary Morrison Chitwood, of Monett,
has received much favorable comment
The Lawrence County Record says:
"Saved for a Purpose written by
Mrs. Mary Morrison Chitwood, Of
Lawrence County, has received high
praise in editorials in the San Fran
cisco Chronicle, the Boston Publish
ers Weekly and the Washington d. C.
Star, all papers Of wide circulation
and national circulation. 1t is story
of the highest moral character and
carries the message OF the author
with a vital force rarely found in the
novels of today.
"Saved for Purpose" is too vivid
a story to be even outlined in few
words of description, but must be
read, and it is safe to say, will be
read through to the last word when
once begun"
Mrs. Chitwood takes for her scenes
of her story, Monett, Wichita, Kan,
and Eureka Springs, Ark. The story
opens with the sad parting of man
from his wife and baby, being lured
to the gold fields of the West. He
promises to return for his wife in a
year, but four years pass and all
trace is lost of the husband and father
Despondent, the young wife takes her
own life, leaving her young son to the
mercy of the world.
The boy is sent to an unscrupulous
relative at Wichita, Kan, who wrong
fully accuses him of theft. In his
resentment he runs away and goes to
Eureka Springs, Ark. Mrs. Chitwood
gives some beautiful word pictures of
this picturesque town as she relates
how the boy found employment and
made his way by honesty and industry
He answers the call of his country
and goes to the Philippines to fight in
the Spanish-American war. While
there he leads band which rescues
an old man from a band Of natives
firing squad, and finds that he has
rescued his own father.
Returning to America the young
man marries his childhood sweetheart,
the father comes into an inheritance
and the story has a happy domestic
ending.
"Saved for Purpose" is a whole
some book and it's teachings are good.
