Medallion in color on front cover. Lord Ruddington falls helplessly in love with Miss Langley, whom he sees in one of her walks accompanied by her maid, Susan. Through a misapprehension of personalities his lordship addresses a love missive to the maid. Susan accepts in perfect good faith, and an epistolary love-making goes on till they are disillusioned. It naturally makes a droll and delightful little comedy; and is a story that is particularly clever in the telling. WHEN PATTY WENT TO COLLEGE. By Jean Webster. With illustrations by C. D. Williams. "The book is a treasure."--_Chicago Daily News._ "Bright, whimsical, and thoroughly entertaining."--_Buffalo Express._ "One of the best stories of life in a girl's college that has ever been written."--_N. Y. Press._ "To any woman who has enjoyed the pleasures of a college life this book cannot fail to bring back many sweet recollections; and to those who have not been to college the wit, lightness, and charm of Patty are sure to be no less delightful."--_Public Opinion._ THE MASQUERADER. By Katherine Cecil Thurston. With illustrations by Clarence F. Underwood. "You can't drop it till you have turned the last page."--Cleveland Leader. "Its very audacity of motive, of execution, of solution, almost takes one's breath away. The boldness of its denouement is sublime."--_Boston Transcript._ "The literary hit of a generation. The best of it is the story deserves all its success. A masterly story."--_St. Louis Dispatch._ "The story is ingeniously told, and cleverly constructed."--_The Dial._ THE GAMBLER. By Katherine Cecil Thurston. With illustrations by John Campbell. "Tells of a high strung young Irish woman who has a passion for gambling, inherited from a long line of sporting ancestors. She has a high sense of honor, too, and that causes complications. She is a very human, lovable character, and love saves her."--_N. Y. Times._ GROSSET & DUNLAP,----NEW YORK End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of The Haunters of the Silences, by Charles G. D.
