The Mystery of the Red Flame. Ry 

 George Barton, author of "The 

 World's Greatest Military Spies and 

 Secret Service Agents." The Page 

 Company, Boston, publishers. — Not 

 particularly horticultural, but the 

 heroine provides the hero in the hos- 

 pital with a daily bunch of American 

 Beauty roses and that "lets it by." 

 It is a story of smug.glin.g tricks, mys- 

 tery, intrigues and secret service de- 

 tective work, romantically interwoven 

 with a love story which reads like a 

 fiction founded on fact. It is mildly 

 tragic without excessive sensational- 

 ism, and one who starts to read it will 

 stay in the game until the last chap- 

 ter. The price is net $1.35.
