The 

 Heather Moon 



By C. N. and A. M. WILLIAMSON 



^T DO YOU remember "Set in Silver?" — nearly everyone 

 ^LL» thinks of that charming romance the moment you mention 

 the Williamsons. It was the gayest and most alluring love 

 story in motor that ever took its way along the flashing, sea- 

 bound coast of southern England. Well, this is just another 

 such, " The Heather Moon," except that the authors have 

 invaded a new land and set a very enjoyable romance 

 against a background of Scotch heather. 



The story opens with Barribel MacDonald, a girl of 

 nineteen, almost a prisoner in her grandmother's house. She 

 has been kept in ignorance of her parents, whom she has 

 never seen. She knows that her father is dead. The attic 

 of the old house has always been a place of alluring 

 mystery from which she has been carefully excluded and 

 when one day she slips in, she learns the truth. That night, 

 after being sent to her room as a punishment, she rolls what 

 little treasures she has into a bundle and sets out for London. 



It is the story or her adventures which the Williamsons 

 tell in the "Heather Moon." The charm of the Scottish 

 countryside runs through all the pages and there is a very 

 interesting love story which unfolds under the skilful touch 

 of these two popular writers.

GUESTS OF HERCULES 



By C. N. and A. M. WILLIAMSON 



CA romantic tale of Monte Carlo and of the picturesque life of the 

 "Azure Coast." The character of Mary Grant is one of such naive 

 franknesss, disconcerting directness and captivating innocence of the ways of 

 the world that one begins to feel a sort of personal responsibility for her from 

 the opening of the book. This appeal is very strong and is one of the most 

 delightful qualities of this story of a convent girl's adventures in Monte Carlo.
