145A STORY OF MYSTERY It Will Be Written by Mrs. Peattie and Will Begin Next Sunday. Large Prizes Will Be Offered for the Best Forecasts of the Last Chapter. A Tale of Romance, Adventure and Ambition With a Plot That Is Hard to Unravel. Next Sunday the World-Herald will begin the publication of a story of mystery. It will be written by Mrs. Elia W. Peattie, who needs no introduction to the readers of the World-Herald. The story will run through this month and next, and will be published only in the Sunday World-Herald. The title of the story will be "Jan Paulson, the Bookman," and it will be adapted to the reading of old and young. Being a story of mystery, the last chapter will not be published until the readers of the World-Herald have had an opportunity to unravel the plot and offer solutions for the last chapter. In addition to the natural interest which readers will feel in a story of romance and adventure from the pen of Mrs. Peattie, the World-Herald proposes to offer several large prizes to the readers who come nearest to forecasting the closing chapter of the story under rules and regulations which will be published next Sunday, in connection with the opening chapters of the story. Watch for the opening chapters of Mrs. Peattie's story next Sunday. Watch for the rules and regulations. Watch for the offer of prizes. In short, watch for next Sunday's World-Herald.
