A CHARMING LOVE stORY. A wonderfully captivating story, spirited and lifelike, and teeming with dramatic action, will be placed before our readers next week, under thp. title cf SIR JOHN'S HEIRESS. By F. L. DACRE, Author of "A Loveless Marriage," "A Change of Heart," "Trenholme's Trust," "A Case for the Court," etc. The heroine is a young wnrr.an of ambition and determination, chained to misfortune by poverty. Her father is a ne'er-do-well, selfi3h and unscrupulous, who s*o envies his more enterprising and fortunate brother that toward him he enacts the part of a trickster and traitor. Because of the rascality of this recreant brother, the daughter is spurned and despised, her uncle deeming her as unworthy as her father. But just befoie his demise the uncle relents, showers kindness upon her, and makes her his heiress. Her ambition partly realised, by the opportunity to revel in wealth, she soon finds herself beset with troubles far more irksome than those pertaining to poverty. Her improvident father anchors himself in her home, and becomes an exasperating barnacle, introducing to her attention an audacious comrade whom it is difficult to suppress. The story is replete with exciting scenes and cleverly planned tableau, all of them pourtrayed with artistic skill and vigor. There is not a dull chapter in the entire work. The opening instalment will appear in the Wairarapa Age on TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 30th, 1909.
