Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK: She stood behind the counter in H. O'Neill's splendid dry-goods emporium on Sixth avenue--only one of his army of salesgirls, yet not a belle of the famous society Four Hundred could eclipse her in beauty--pretty Geraldine, with her great, starry, brown eyes lighting up a bewitching face, with a skin like a rose-leaf, and a low, white brow, crowned by an aureole of curly hair, in whose waves the sunshine was tangled so that it could not get free. Her round, white throat rose proudly from a simple, nun-like gown of fine black serge, unadorned save by the beauty of the form it fitted with easy grace.She would have graced a queen's drawing-room, this lovely girl with her starry eyes and demure dimples, but untoward fate had placed her behind a glove counter in New York.It was very cold up to ten o'clock that bright October morning, and the great throngs of fall shoppers were not yet out in force, so Geraldine had an idle moment in which to gossip with her chum, plump, gray-eyed Cissy Carroll.They both belonged to an amateur dramatic society, and a generous manager had sent them tickets for the play that evening. It was of this anticipated pleasure that they were chatting joyously, when a low, deep, masculine voice spoke to Geraldine across the counter:"Gloves, please."She turned quickly toward her customer, and at the same moment a very exacting lady claimed Cissy's attention.The shop was rapidly filling with elegantly dressed women of fashion, and they would have no more leisure that day.Geraldine saw before her an elegant-looking gentleman--tall, broad-shouldered, graceful, with a clean-shaven face, clear-cut features, fair, clustering locks, and large, glittering, light-blue eyes, keen and clear as points of steel in their direct gaze, but with something unpleasant somehow in their admiring expression that made the pretty salesgirl drop her eyes bashfully, as he continued, easily:"I have lost a bet of a box of gloves to a lady, and would like you to assist me in selecting some pretty ones to pay the debt.""What size?" she asked, as she began pulling down the boxes."Sixes," he replied, and added: "She is a gay and pretty young girl--an actress.""An actress!" Geraldine sighed, enviously, then smothered the sigh by saying, carelessly: "We both wear the same size of glove.""Ah!" and the customer gazed admiringly at the slender, dimpled white hands sorting out the gloves, then continued: "And I am an actor, and it pleases me to tell you that I am Clifford Standish, the leading man in 'Hearts and Homes,' the society play you are going to see to-night."He laid his elegantly engraved card before her, and she started with surprise and pleasure, faltering, eagerly:"I--I am proud to know you--but how did you guess I was going to the theatre to-night?""I beg your pardon for listening, but I heard you and your chum talking about it while I stood at the counter waiting for you to notice me."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Novelist Mittie Frances Clarke Point (April 30, 1850-December 26, 1937) wrote as Mrs. Alex. McVeigh Miller, the name of her second husband. The author of 80 dime novels published from 1881 to 1915, she was one of the best-known romance writers of her age. Her fiction brought her wealth and fame. A native of Doswell, Virginia, she was educated at home and at the Richmond Female Institute, from which she graduated on June 30, 1868. After graduation, she married Thomas Jefferson Davis and gave birth to a daughter. Both her husband and child died within two years, leaving her alone in Washington. Grief stricken, she returned to her family in Richmond, where she wrote stories for the Old Dominion and Temperance Advocate magazines. In May 1878, she abandoned her writing when she married Alexander McVeigh Miller and moved to Fayette County. She soon began writing again, hoping to augment her husband's meager earnings as a schoolteacher. Her first success came in 1883 with the sensational romance titled The Bride of the Tomb. Numerous lucrative publications followed, enabling Miller to build a mansion called The Cedars in Alderson, and to finance her husband's political career, helping him win a seat in the West Virginia Senate from 1901 to 1909. Miller earned more than $100,000 from her romance novels. In 1908, after discovering her husband's infidelities, she divorced him and moved to Boston with her daughter, Irene. Facing poverty again after years of plenty, Miller eventually settled in Florida, where she died at the age of 87. Miller's Alderson house later became the home of Congresswoman Ruth Bryan Owen Rohde, the daughter of William Jennings Bryan. The Cedars was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.

Download or read book Jane the Fox and Me written by Isabelle Arsenault and published by Groundwood Books Ltd. This book was released on 2013-10-10 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Best Illustrated Book Hélène has been inexplicably ostracized by the girls who were once her friends. Her school life is full of whispers and lies - Hélène weighs 216; she smells like BO. Her loving mother is too tired to be any help. Fortunately, Hélène has one consolation, Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre. Hélène identifies strongly with Jane's tribulations, and when she is lost in the pages of this wonderful book, she is able to ignore her tormentors. But when Hélène is humiliated on a class trip in front of her entire grade, she needs more than a fictional character to see herself as a person deserving of laughter and friendship. Leaving the outcasts' tent one night, Hélène encounters a fox, a beautiful creature with whom she shares a moment of connection. But when Suzanne Lipsky frightens the fox away, insisting that it must be rabid, Hélène's despair becomes even more pronounced: now she believes that only a diseased and dangerous creature would ever voluntarily approach her. But then a new girl joins the outcasts' circle, Géraldine, who does not even appear to notice that she is in danger of becoming an outcast herself. And before long Hélène realizes that the less time she spends worrying about what the other girls say is wrong with her, the more able she is to believe that there is nothing wrong at all. This emotionally honest and visually stunning graphic novel reveals the casual brutality of which children are capable, but also assures readers that redemption can be found through connecting with another, whether the other is a friend, a fictional character or even, amazingly, a fox.
