_An International Love Comedy_

A WOMAN'S WILL

By Anne Warner

Author of "Susan Clegg and Her Friend Mrs. Lathrop."

It is a relief to take up a volume so absolutely free from stressfulness. The love-making is pa.s.sionate, the humor of much of the conversation is thoroughly delightful. The book is as refres.h.i.+ng a bit of fiction as one often finds; there is not a dull page in it.--_Providence Journal_.

It is bright, charming, and intense as it describes the wooing of a young American widow on the European Continent by a German musical genius.--_San Francisco Chronicle_.

A deliciously funny book.--_Chicago Tribune_.

There is a laugh on nearly every page.--_New York Times_.

Most decidedly an unusual story. The dialogue is nothing if not original, and the characters are very unique. There is something striking on every page of the book.--_Newark Advertiser_.

A more vivacious light novel could not be found.--_Chicago Record-Herald_.

_An Ingenious and Engrossing Romance_

THE PRINCESS THORA

By HARRIS BURLAND

A remarkably absorbing romance, conceived and planned with fine imagination, yet carried out with all the vivid actuality and plausibility of the most prosaic "detective" story. The nearest counterpart of this engrossing and very unusual narrative is perhaps to be found in the work that first made Rider Haggard famous, though the story owes literally nothing to anything that has gone before, so startlingly novel is its theme and so boldly convincing is its execution.

_A Romance of Early Michigan_

THE WOLVERINE

By ALBERT L. LAWRENCE

A spirited story of love and politics, with its scenes laid in Detroit just before Michigan became a state, and when disputes over the Ohio boundary line nearly led to open warfare. Perry North, a young surveyor of Puritan ideas, is sent to Detroit when he falls in love with Marie Beaucoeur, a charming French girl, of the Catholic faith.

The English and French characters are strongly contrasted, the incidents are novel, and the story makes a continuous impression of actuality.

LITTLE, BROWN, & CO., Publishers, BOSTON

_Richard Le Gallienne's New Book_

PAINTED SHADOWS

By the Author of "The Love-Letters of the King," etc.

Mr. Le Gallienne's new book displays in a remarkable degree his fine imagination, charming style, and the high quality of his verse. "The Youth of Lady Constantia," "The Wandering Home," "The Shadow of the Rose," "Beauty's Portmanteau," and "Old Silver" are equal to his best work, and the story which bears the t.i.tle "Poet take Thy Lute" will appeal especially to those who love what is best and most beautiful in literature.

_The Heroine with the Marvellous Voice_

SWEET PEGGY

By LINNIE SARAH HARRIS

A summer idyll, with love, music, and nature for its themes, and the mountains and lakes for its scenes. The heroine, Peggy, is charming, fresh, and unconventional, with a genuine love for song. The country neighbors with their peculiarities give touches of both humor and pathos to this appealing story.

LITTLE, BROWN, & CO., Publishers, BOSTON

_Far outside the common run of fiction.--Dial, Chicago_

THE WOOD-CARVER OF 'LYMPUS

By M.E. WALLER

Author of "A Daughter of the Rich," etc.

A strong tale of human loves and hopes set in a background of the granite mountain-tops of remote New England.--_Brooklyn Eagle_.

Hugh Armstrong, the hero, is one of the p.r.o.nouncedly high cla.s.s character delineations of a quarter century.--_Boston Courier_.

It is a book which does one good to read and which is not readily forgotten; for in it are mingled inextricably the elements of humor and pathos and also a strain of generous feeling which uplifts and humanizes.--Harry Thruston Peck, Editor of _The Bookman_.

A few books are published every year that really minister to the tired hearts of this hurried age. They are like little pilgrimages away from the world across the Delectable Mountains of Good.... This year it is "The Wood-Carver of 'Lympus."... It is all told with a primitive sweetness that is refres.h.i.+ng in these days when every writer cultivates the clever style.--_Independent_, New York.

The book is as manly as "Ralph Connors," and written with a more satisfying art.--Amos E. Wells, in _Christian Endeavor World_.
