Not illustrated. 1921 edition. Excerpt: ... "No!" said the boy decidedly. "I tell no one but you and Tree." "Perhaps I ought to tell Mr. Horliss-Cole and have him tend the police!" The boy's face darkened. "You go back on us, too! You turn yella!" There came an old man's look on his set young jaw. A look of utter hopelessness, and tragedy, yes, and a desire for vengeance, too. "You tell on us, and get the police and Angelo get hanged. Mr. Hor'-Cor' get more mad and turn Ub all out . We otfdie!" "Oh," said Patty putting her hands over her eyes, " don't! Of course I wouldn't do that! I was only trying to think what to do! Of course he mustn't know it. Mr. Treeves is the one. He will know what to do. I will go with you and find him. Wait for me here a minute. I will get my coat and hat and go with you." "I am going out for a little while. You need not keep my dinner for me," said Patty putting in her head at the pantry door, and then she flew up the stairs to her room. She was down in a moment more, and they were out in the street together. It seemed somehow a relief. The lighted streets, the people hurrying home to their dinners, the quiet stars above: it seemed to give her steadiness. Nothing so dreadful as blowing up The Plant and the wonderful village-- Joyville, Joyville! He had named it that! Nothing like what Dominic had been telling could happen in a world where things went by law and order. It seemed absurd almost to think it could. Then she looked at the eet face of the boy by her side and hurried on. They took the trolley to The Plant. It was a full threequarters of an hour before they reached there, and then the ferryboat had just gone as they arrived at the landing. The tail lights blinked leeringly at them as they looked across the water as if the boat, too, were...

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Natalie and Chris are a young and happy couple who thought that life of joy is upon them. Sudden outbreak of the Great Depression ruins their plans... In the time of despair Natalie's faith and Chris' dedication will push them trough and prove that with pure love all adversity can be overcome. Grace Livingston Hill was an early 20th-century novelist and wrote both under her real name and the pseudonym Marcia Macdonald. She wrote over 100 novels and numerous short stories and her characters are most often young female Christian women or those who become so within the confines of the story. Hill's messages are simple in nature: good versus evil. As Hill believed that the Bible was very clear about what was good and evil in life and had firm faith God's ability to restore everything, the same belief was also reflected in her own works. Even today Hill's novels are widely read and appreciated for their romance and their inspiring life lessons.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from The Tryst Patricia merrill, richly clad in gray duvetyne with moleskin trimmings, soft shod in gray suede boots, came slowly down the stairs from the third story, fastening her glove as she went. The top button was refractory and she paused in the middle of the stairs to give it her undivided attention. The light from the great ground-glass skylight overhead sifted down in a pool of brightness about her, and gave a vivid touch to the knot of coral velvet in her little moleskin toque. She was a pretty picture as she stood there with that drifting light about her like silver rain, and a wistful look in her eyes and about her lips.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Self-proclaimed teenage philosopher Cordell Wheaton lives in a sleepy, southern town where nothing ever happens; not since his hero, jazz musician John Coltrane, left some seventy years earlier to "follow the sound." Cordy's life has been unraveling since the night his father and his brother, Travis, exploded on each other. The night Travis's addiction transformed him from budding musician into something entirely different. The night Travis took his saxophone and disappeared. When Cordy's father falls ill, the sixteen-year-old vows to reunite the Wheaton family. He embarks on a modern-day odyssey with forty bucks in his pocket and a dream to find his brother and convince him to be Travis again--by taking him to a show at Birdland Jazz Club in New York City, and reminding him of the common bonds they share with their legendary hero. Cordy's journey is soon haunted by ghostly visions, traumatic dreams, and disembodied voices that echo through his mind. He starts to wonder if the voices are those of the fates, guiding him toward his destiny--or if he's losing his grip on reality.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This Element brings together the history of emotions and temporalities, offering a new perspective on both. Time was often imagined as a movement from the past to the future: the past is gone and the future not yet here. Only present-day subjects could establish relations to other times, recovering history as well as imagining and anticipating the future. In a movement paralleling the emphasis on the porous self, constituted by emotions situated not inside but between subjects, this Element argues for a porous present, which is open to the intervention of ghosts coming from the past and from the future. What needs investigating is the flow between times as much as the creation of boundaries between them, which first banishes the ghosts and then denies their existence. Emotions are the most important way through which subjects situate and understand themselves in time.
