PRIMROSE EDITION No. 4. Kathleen Douglas, By JULIA TRUITT BISHOP, as a pure and beautifully written love story. It ts talked of by press and public alike, and as the sensation of the day. KaTHuEEN Doveras.—Like the plot of an artfully constructed play is this cleverly told romance, by Julia Truitt Bishop, of love and mys- tery. Itis the story of a cruelly suspected yet innocent wife, against whom suspicions are aroused and disseminated by a rejected wooer—a man with the outward semblance of a saint, yet who conceals the heart of an insatiate wretch. The interest is heightened and artisti- cally sustained by making the daughter an inheritor of her mother’s supposed disgrace. The golden thread of a pleasing love episode is intertwined with the tragic element of the romance, and from the opening to the close the reader never loses sight of the heroine, the long- suffering but eventually rewarded Kathleen Douglas.—Baltimore News.
