The Bishop of Arkansas. Rev. Jamei

"'A Gentleman With a Duster'
i a much needed benefactor;

? or eti' of the day call forth

force of hit reaten and con
science."
Somebody, writing in The
Cleveland Plain Dealer, has a strong
conviction that Sidnev Dark. Editor
ef Jehn O'Londen's Weekly, is the
anonymous author of "Painted Win
dows," "The Mirrors of Downing
Street" nnd "The Glass of Fashion."
He bases hin assumption upon the
imilarity of style between theso
three famous books and Mr. Dark's

of the shareholders consented te the plan
by depositing their holding with the

tacked In the courts as a combination In

of lite te four. The majority Insisted
that the combination was in restraint

what is incomparably the most significant, as well

AFTERGLOW
A Nevel by EDITH THOMSON
An exclusive resort in the Berkshircs and high social circles in Wash Wash
ingten give an attractive setting te this appealing novel. It is the
story of a woman of fine courage and unusual charm who, having
risked marriage with a much younger man, needs all her power and
subtlety te keep him unconscious of the dividing years. It is thus
both a comedy and a tragedy, and also a social picture presented
with understanding and warm sympathy.

many years stands out in my

Gedden. . . . The tragedy and
triumph of her life, se strangely
intertwined, arc set forth with

the work clear above the levels

GENTLE JULIA
By BOOTH TARKINGTON
A COMPANION book te Penrod and Seventeen. A
gay nnd joyeu book. Julia Atwatcr, the "prettiest
girl in town," was se dcvnst.itinglr kind that each of her
numerous admirers felt that he was the favored one. Each
dangled hopelessly, yet hopefully.
Julia was afflicted with relatives, the most trying being
her niece, Florence, who, like Penrod, was immensely
fertile and diabolically energetic.
Frem Julia with her gift for dress, her distracting
coquetry and her disarming beauty, te Nebel Dill and his
fellow unfortunates living in a haze of rosy infatuation,
Tarkingten has pictured a new group of people you will
recognize at once.

than Miss Wylie has given us before. In particular it reveals in
the study of its principal character an understanding and a
