Even to the smallest detail, every bit of the plot is worked out scientifically. Such plots — such suspense — with real, vivid people moving through the maelstrom of life!

But all these seem oldfashioned — out of date — beside the infinite variety — the weird excitement of .Arthur B. Reeve's modern detective tales, in 12 volumes — over 250 stories. Col. Roosevelt said : — " I did a whole lot ol rcaiiiK. I particularly enjoyed half a dozen rattiink; good dcieciivc stories by Arthur B.
