Jackson, Mrs. Margaret Doyle. When love is king. [†]$1.50. Dillingham.
Todhunter Payson, who as a child philosophizes over his homely face thus:—“I was born that way.... You know nothing makes the way you’re born. It just happens an’ then you have to stay that way all your life,” and Luke Lyttle “gentleman to his small finger tips” are chums in boyhood, rivals in love, friends all the way. The development of the sturdy Tod from a homeless waif into a man who sways his world is not overdrawn but is true to the principles of a self-made career.
“The book is well worth reading. The people are natural and consistent, the story is well told and interesting.”
