THE BELL COW. By Bryant E. Sherman.
Illustrated. Cloth. Price, $1.50.
Decidedly a story of simple country life. The trials and pleasures are those of the out-of-the-way places. There is plot strong enough to keep the reader’s interest from cover to cover. Humor, pathos and excitement are all here, but the most important part is played by the Aunt Betsy, the old maid with the big heart.
ALICE BRENTON. By Mary Josephine Dale.
Illustrated. Cloth. Price, $1.50.
The author has drawn a vivid picture of Colonial Newport, with her wealth and culture, spacious mansions and handsome grounds.
Mrs. Gale describes the sufferings and privations of the people during those trying days, calls attention to the depredations of the soldiers, and in the end makes love triumph over all obstacles. The book has ingenuity in plot, and much interesting material.–The News, Newport, R. I.
