Torchy and Vee

Chapter 44

PENROD AND SAM. Ill.u.s.trated by Worth Brehm.

Like "Penrod" and "Seventeen," this book contains some remarkable phases of real boyhood and some of the best stories of juvenile prankishness that have ever been written.

THE TURMOIL. Ill.u.s.trated by C. E. Chambers.

Bibbs Sheridan is a dreamy, imaginative youth, who revolts against his father"s plans for him to be a servitor of big business. The love of a fine girl turns Bibb"s life from failure to success.

THE GENTLEMAN FROM INDIANA. Frontispiece.

A story of love and politics,--more especially a picture of a country editor"s life in Indiana, but the charm of the book lies in the love interest.

THE FLIRT. Ill.u.s.trated by Clarence F. Underwood.

The "Flirt," the younger of two sisters, breaks one girl"s engagement, drives one man to suicide, causes the murder of another, leads another to lose his fortune, and in the end marries a stupid and unpromising suitor, leaving the really worthy one to marry her sister.
