Excerpt from The Rose-Garden HusbandSo the Liberry Teacher braced herself severely, and put on her reading-glasses with a View to looking Older and more firm. Liberry Teacher, it might be well to explain, was not her official title. Her description on the pay-roll ran Assistant for the Children's Department, Greenway Branch, City Public Library. Grown-up people, when she happened to run across them, called her Bliss Braithwaite. But Liberry Te...

Excerpt from The Haunted Hour: An Anthology This does not attempt to be an inclusive anthology. The ghostly poetry of the late war alone would have made a book as large as this, and an inclusive scheme would have ended as' a six-volume Encyclopedia of Ghostly Verse. I hope that this may be called for some day. The present book has been held to the conventional limits of the type of small anthology which may be read without weariness (i hope) ...

Excerpt from The Boardwalk It begins by the Allenwood flume, where the little boys go to catch herring in the spring. It stretches down for about two miles, diving through the Arches Pavilion, where the young lovers go to look at the water on lonely days when they hope they will not be disturbed. Further on it passes Knockers' Row, where the middle-aged women sit and tell each other their thoughts about the passersby. Then comes Wesley Pavil...

Excerpt from You're Only Young Once You might have thought, if you didn't know, that there was an afternoon tea-party going on, but it wasn't: it was merely all the Goldsborough girls in one room. There were five of them, ranging all the way from Angela, who was twenty-three and looked so much like a doll that by the law of contraries you could be almost sure she had a great deal of common sense, to Isabella, who was fifteen and had large eye...

Excerpt from A Minister of Grace "I wouldn't do it, Marion, " said Andrew Blanton meditatively. "Wouldn't do what?" demanded his sister-in-law.

He eyed her, unafraid, which was an achievement, for stately Mrs. Garrison possessed a combination of quic...
