Cody has made for himself a fine reputation as the writer of good { clean, wholesome stories,, stories { abounding in plot and action. Mis inew novel, "The Touch of Abner," is i almost typical of his work. The hero i of the story is Abner Andrews, a far- i mer who has a strugele to make ends meet. He startles the community by offering the sum of one thousand dol- | lars. to 'an orphan home fund, al- 'though hes has hardly a cent to call | his own. His motive was to shame the wealthy men of the district into | giving larger sums, but he was not | successful. His offer disturbs his wife {very much, bui on Abner's farm { there is a.xaluable gravel Led 'which {the government seems anxious to buy. { At the beginning of the story Ab- { ner"s daughter, Jess, returns _frem By { lasm for social service work. = Her and they provide the romance of the story. There is very little connected plot to his novel, but it is scarcely need- ed. The government grafters' sche- mes to secure the gravel bed and SAbner's methods of fighting them provide pleniy of exciting and amus- ing incidents. He incurs the enmity of the village liwyer and the monied man of the district, and gets the bet- ter qf them. His action in regard to the orphans' homie results in his ad- option of five young children. He ad- ministers a thrashing to the editor of the local paper for publishing an ar- ticle about, Abner"s wife running away with a chauffeur, and lands in jail. But in the end he emerges tri- umphantly from ull his troables and is made wealthy by the sale of jis Jesg finds a fitting mate, and their romance is a pleasing one. Abner reaps a rich reard for his goodness of heart and his sterling honesty of purpose, and the ending is a happy one. The story of "The Touch of Ab- ner" is one of the wittiest and most humorous of recent years. Mr. Cody evidently believes that there is en- ough sadness in the world, for he has filled its pages with laughter. The chapter in which Lawyer Rack- shaw, who is trying to secure the gravel bed, and who plays a mean trick on Abper, receives a box of rats. is especially good.
