The themes nre grown up even If the

The dramatic essays in verse and

In tho convent, have been collected
In n hnndsom volume entitled "Alma

THANKFULS
INHERITANCE
By JOSEPH C. LINCOLN
Author of "Kent Knowles, Quahaug," "Cap'n Dan's Daughter," etc
A roaring comedy-novel of Cape Cod life. Thankful
inherits a cottage and turns it into a boarding house.
But, "thunder-mighty!" some one discovers the house
is "ha'nted" and then things begin to happen and keep
right on happening until the house is short of boarders
and the reader is short of breath. If you want to
laugh, read "Thankful's Inheritance." You never read
a funnier book. Don't mi;s it. Get your copy today!
