The law of tho love of youth for youth is 'the back ground of the story. Louise Mazarine, a willowy slip of a girl, and Joel Mazarine, her husband, sixty-five these are the violation of the law. Then comes Orlando Guise, a neighboring ranchman and young. And the law begins to work ns surely as gravi tation pulls the falling apple to the earth. Louise has heard a strange voice outside her window. It is a new kind of voice, lively, and constantly breaking into little spells of inconsequent laughter. She wants to See who has such a voice. She moves cautiously to the window and looks into the merriest eyes she has ever seen "and for the first time in all tier life she is wholly alive." Thus begins this heart gripping drama of love and jealousy, hate and exquisite romance. WILD YOUTH AND ANOTHER Sir Gilbert Parker writes for all classes, his novels make a universal appeal. This is a novel of his supreme and mature genius, An intense and thrilling drama of the great Canadian West. There is a rare treat for the lover of the beautiful in style and matter, as well as the swift move ment of vivid drama in this great novel. FOUR IUUSTRA TIONS, $t.B0 NET J. B.
