THE LANCE OF KANANA

A STORY OF ARABIA

By HARRY W. FRENCH ("Abd el Ardavan")

Two-color illustrations by Garrett Net, $1.25

[Illustration]

Kanana, a Bedouin youth, though excelling in athletic prowess, is
branded, even by his father, as a coward because he prefers the humble
lot of a shepherd to the warrior's career that he, the son of a sheik
known as the "Terror of the Desert," was expected to follow. "Only for
Allah and Arabia will I lift a lance and take a life," he maintained.
Opportunity to prove his worth soon comes, and the supposed coward,
understood too late, becomes in memory a national hero.

"The stirring story of the loyalty and self-sacrifice of a
Bedouin boy is well worth the attractive new edition in
which it now presents its rare picture of fervid
patriotism."--_Continent, Chicago._

By JOHN BROWNJOHN

Frontispiece by John Goss Illustrated by "Boz"

Here is a child classic reissued in a finer and handsomer form, in
response to the persistent demand of those who know the mirth-provoking
quality of the exploits of the ingenious small boy named Miltiades
Peterkin Paul and spoken of as "a great traveler, although he was
small." Whoever has once enjoyed the story of the restless little lad
who imitated Don Quixote, and did many other things, is permanently
charmed by it.

"This youthful Don Quixote, with his travels and exploits,
drives 'dull care' away from the elders and delights the
juniors."--_Watchman, N.Y._

The Young Folks' Book of Ideals

By DR. WILLIAM BYRON FORBUSH

Fully illustrated 8vo Cloth 500 pages

[Illustration]

This is intended to be the fundamental book in the library of boys and
girls between twelve and eighteen, and it deserves its place in
interest, fullness, and worth. The great educator, G. Stanley Hall, has
demanded "a secular Bible," and it is not too much to say that this
meets the demand. One may go farther, and say that no other modern
writer has so wisely, so safely, and at the same time so entertainingly
provided what young people long to be told if only it be done capably
and pleasingly. Dr. Forbush is a sinc
