Kd S. Kills, the inun who died re cently, wrote the first 'of the dime uov els that made a hitjand he wrote hun dreds of them afterward, and many ; other hooks beside. lie was nineteen years old when he wrote "Both Jones," in 18f?l>, and sent it to Beadle & Ad ams, New York, who had Just begun to publish their dime novels, but had not made a success with tifecin. They saw a winner in "Heth Jones." Before they Kent It out they plastered the country with posters, dodgers and painted inscriptions with the ques tion: "Who is Heth Jones?" and when the people had guessed and won dered for weeks the whole^ country broke out in another rush of posters bearing the picture of a frontiersman in coonskin cap, with the inscription, i"I am Xeth Jones." The book made the fame of 10111s and the dime novel and the fortune of Beadle & Adams, it was translated Into 11 languages nd a million copies were sold. A queer thing about it was that Kills was brought up to be u preacher find that he was teacher of a Sunday school class when he wrote his tirst dime novel. He used to clothe Bible stories in Imagery of his own, vivid and exciting, and always closed the lesson with the tale unfinished and the remark: "Boys, we'll continue the Htory next Sunday." All the boys in the village were in his Sunday school , class. I ^ He wrote so many stories for hoys and girls that he lost count of them. He was the author of the "Boy Pio neer," "Log Cabin," "Deerfoot," "NVy I ?uning" and "Forest and Prairie" se | ries, and lp* wrote many serlous-nUnd J rd books, such as a history of this country in eight volumes, of whh-h (NN> sot s were sold. ftOs said of him tlutt he was a good ; man. of kindly nature; that children 1 loved him. and that, In spite of the (?preaching that has been done against cheap novels, there was ri< >t an immor | al situation nor anything that would ! tend to influence for wrong in the bun-' dreds of novels he wrote. His heroes were manly ami clean-minded. his mor als goo<| itnd lie exalted the nobler qiiitli'i. -? of honor. loyalty and courage, lie s;i mI just before he died that he ? litl nut regret anything he had written and lie felt he had contributed to the ; ,|<>.\ of living -for millions of boys and girls.
