Popular Copyrighted Fiction GROSSER & DUNLAP, 526 WEST 26thST., NEW YORK The Master's Violin By MYRTLE REED A Love Story, with a musical atmosphere. A picturesque, old German virtuoso is the reverent possessor of a genuine Cremona. He consents to take as his pupil a handsome youth who proves to have an aptitude for technique, but not the soul of the artist. The youth has led the happy, careless life of a modem, well-to-do young American, and he cannot, with his meagre past, express the love, the longing, the passion and the tragedies of life and its happy phases as can the master who has lived life in all its fulness. But a girl comes into his existence, a beautiful bit of human driftwood that his aunt had taken into her heart and home; and through his passionate love for her, he learns the lessons that life has to give-and his soul awakens.
Founded on a fact well known among artists, but not often recognized or discussed.',
If you have not read "LAVFNDER AND OLD LACE" by the same author, you have a double pleasure in store-for these two books show Myrtle Reed in her most delightful,, fascinating vein-indeed they may be considered as masterpieces of compelling interest. BY MYRTLE REED Ask for complete free list of G. & D. Popular Copyrighted Fiction GROSSET & DUNLAP, Publishers, NEW YORK The Prodigal judge By VAUGHAN KESTER
This great novel-probably the most popular book in this country to-day-is as human as a story from the pen of that great master of " immortal laughter and immortal tears," Charles Dickens.
The Prodigal judge is a shabby outcast, a tavern hanger-on, a genial wayfarer who tarries longest where the inn is most hospitable, yet with that suavity, that distinctive politeness and that saving grace of humor peculiar to the American man. He has his own code of morals — very exalted ones-but honors them in the breach rather than in the observance.
Clinging to the Judge closer than a brother, is Solomon Mahaffy-fallible and failing like the rest of us, but with a sublime capacity for friendship; and closer still, perhaps, clings little Hannibal, a boy about whose parentage nothing is known until the end of the story. Hannibal is charmed into tolerance of the Judge's picturesque vices, while Miss Betty, lovely and capricious, is charmed into placing all her affairs, both material and sentimental, in the hands of this delightful old vagabond.
The Judge will be a fixed star in the firmament of fictional characters as surely as David Harum or Col. Sellers. He is a source of infinite delight, while this story of Mr. Kester's is one of the finest examples of American literary craftmanship. Ask for complete free list of G. & D.
