Cy Whittaker's Place.
A Novel of Cape Cod Life, by Joseph C. Lincoln, Author of "Mr. Pratt," "Cap'n Eri," etc. 27 illustrations by Wallace Morgan, colored inlay on cover. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50.
Cape Cod life, as pictured by Joseph C. Lincoln, is delightful in its homeliness, its wholesomeness, its quaint simplicity. The plot of this novel revolves around a little girl whom an old bachelor, Cy Whittaker, adopts. Her education is too stupendous a task for the old man to attempt alone, so he calls in two old cronies and they form a "Board of Strategy." A dramatic story of unusual merit then develops, and through it all runs that rich vein of humor which has won for the author a fixed place in the hearts of thousands of readers. Cy Whittaker is the David Harum of Cape Cod.
The Whispering Man.
A Detective Story Worth While, by Henry Kitchell Webster. Frontispiece. 12mo. Decorated cloth, $1.50.
A detective story you ought to read. Something altogether different in that the clues to the mystery lie open to the reader throughout the whole story, and are yet so concealed that the unsuspecting reader is amazed at the outcome. To those who have tired of the ordinary type of detective story, we commend this different novel as most refreshing.
